    I keep plugging in my number and I'm not receiving any texts. Anyone else have this problem or have a suggestion? Could it be old OS or old something? I do need a new computer and new phone.
    sounds like you may have text block on your phone

        Did you mean 1,000, Prickless? I know your math skills aren't a strong suit.

          Edit by SBR: You must beat The Prick to win (in units). For instance, if The Prick scores +3.00 in a given week and you score +3.10 you will have beaten The Prick, and will receive less of the 150K distribution than those who went 5-0-0 and won 5 units that week.. If The Prick goes 5-0 that week, nobody wins. Players must have a positive score to earn prizes.

          Long-time poster but never played BTP before, just signed up. I was curious (not that it matters much since I'm not Pro yet), how are the betpoints divied out? I see it says 150k per week but is that just to anyone that got higher than the prick that week, or is it based on how much you beat him for that week and weighted by that, or what?

          Excited for the contest!

            Edit by SBR: Yes sir you are enrolled properly in the contest, good luck.

            Also I have entered my phone number twice but still have not gotten a text or anything. Am I entered? SBR can you check for me somehow?

              Go to the contest page, will say if you're entered or not. Don't believe you get a text.

                It says my record is 0-0-0 and there is a "make picks" section but I see nowhere saying "You are entered." Is that all there is?

                  If you weren't entered it would say so, there would be an "enter this contest" link under your handle. In addition there should be a link for "My Contests" under "SBR Picks" (menu on right hand side of forum under your name).

                      You can also click on the "Contest Accounts" link (last link on same line as "make picks"), should be a message saying "congrats, your phone number is verified..."

                              Also last year if you went 5-0 in any week you were entered into a end of season contest
                              BTP has come a long way. The $100 check mailed to your house was great (free) money back in the day, though I'll take the higher payout for more of a challenge.

                                  SBR PRO's only or it didn't happen is what it should be!!!!

                                  Contest is gonna be washed out with all those other cheap bastards that can't afford to go Pro.. They're really just in it to spoil the fun.. Do the none SBR PRO members even know once they go over 3000 bet points they can't even use them if they did sign up? Hey but it's a good way to dilute the winnings by the SBR business heads though.. I understand

                                  I'm out and gonna tail the Prick instead... If you can't beat em join em..

                                  Get em Prick!!! Pressure is on pal and ya better cap those Sunday picks correctly...

                                                  Edit by SBR: As long as you have at least 65 you are eligible for the overall cash prizes. If you are fine with making less than 5 some weeks, that's fine, but you will show as disqualified for that week's prizes as 5 picks are needed each week to be eligible for the 150k in fp points.

                                                  I was looking through the contest rules and couldn't really find an answer to this question -

                                                  I know you need to bet 5 games in order to be eligible for the weekly prizes. But say you are just going for the grand prize. You need 65 games total. But it also says "Min. Picks Per Round - 5", so do you have to play 5 picks per round? Or can you play say 2 or 3? Is the only caveat that you need to have 65 picks by the time the contest is over? And you can spread those picks out however you want, without having more than 5 in any week?

                                                  Thanks in advance. Excited to play.

                                                    I know you need to bet 5 games in order to be eligible for the weekly prizes. But say you are just going for the grand prize. You need 65 games total. But it also says "Min. Picks Per Round - 5", so do you have to play 5 picks per round? Or can you play say 2 or 3? Is the only caveat that you need to have 65 picks by the time the contest is over? And you can spread those picks out however you want, without having more than 5 in any week?

                                                    Thanks in advance. Excited to play.
                                                    You need to make at least 65 in order for overall standings

                                                    But if you're making only 2/3 games a week it limits you're chances

                                                              Correct, as long as you have at least 65 you are eligible for the overall cash prizes. If you are fine with making less than 5 some weeks, that's fine, but you will show as disqualified for that week's prizes as 5 picks are needed each week to be eligible for the 150k in fp points.
