    Wimbledon Betting Contest: Out-Cap CrazyLou!
    Wimbledon Betting Contest: Out-Cap CrazyLou!
    runs duration of Wimbledon 2009: June 22nd to July 5th


    In addition to bragging rights, contest pays $125 to the person that posts the best overall record in the contest over a minimum of 20 plays.

    If CrazyLou defeats the field by posting the best overall record, no prizes are awarded and you can chalk up the time spent as a learning experience.

    Contestants may enter no later than June 21st at midnight. All entrants must submit a BetPhoenix account to CrazyLou (PM or email) to be prize eligible.

    RULES
    1] CrazyLou will post ML's only for ATP and WTA in a thread titled "Daily Tennis Lines: June[x]" in the Tennis Handicapping subforum.
    2] All contestants are to post their selections in each day's Daily Lines Thread.
    3] There is a minimum of 20 picks, max of 30.
    4] There is a cutoff of -599 on favorites, anything higher will not count. No limit on dog ML's.
    5] Each player is to keep track of their own YTD, and post it underneath each day's selection.
    6] Each play is to win 1 unit on a fav, risk 1 on a dog.

    At conclusion of contest, CrazyLou will verify all records and compare to his own record to determine if he has won the contest.

    PRIZE
    1.) $125 to winner
    3X rollover
    Must submit BetPhoenix account

      I think so too. The perfect opportunity to exhibit my tennis handicapping prowess. Too bad it's not for another two weeks.

              Sign me up. I won't post any plays. Just fade CrayLou's women's plays and I'd be up 20 units.

                  Exactly, I'm going to be like Kobe Bryant in the 4th Q knocking down tennis picks, I ain't rushin for nothin' I'm strictly out-handicapping and out-working the field. Matter of fact, if I have to stay up till the sun comes up staring at line movement and crunching numbers I will..

                  Bring it...

                              Nah...It's more like the last stand at the battle of Alamo for CrazyLou. Will go down in flames.

                                I think all the people who jump on Lou about his picks - regardless of whether they bet tennis or not regularly - should be involved here. Put up or shut up. Thanks for the contest Lou.

                                    I hope Daggerkobe aka Chicken Little makes an exception from his break to take part in this contest.

                                      It's in the tennis forum, I thought his self imposed ban was Players Talk only.

                                        This may be the first contest where all contestants beat the challenger.

                                                    It's actually if CrazyL finishes #1 in the contest, then no one wins.

                                                    I don't see him doing that, but it's highly unlikely that I'll win either. I'm in it for the competition.

                                                        Do all lines have to be from BetPhoenix Lou?
