      Prizes should go:

      points
      50
      100
      200
      400
      800 etc

      and throw in bonuses wherever need be


      noone should go to day 3 risking 200 to win 100 more on a -110 game (your odds would be -200 on that game). you can just cash out 200 and go to the sportsbook with your points to win 390 or so with them

      again, im not trying to be mean...many posters will take advantage of this .....so just saying it now before the contest starts

      i was going to just keep my mouth shut but i am really just trying to help sbr restructure...that is why i was worried about odds

        Thanks Drew ! Seems like best way to do it would be cash out day 1 and just go all in everyday after 100 200 400 800 and so on?

          no, it would be after day 2

          hopefully rework structure so these poker/point guys do not take advantage of it

                        rudy. i think you don't have to put 100 points up...just 6. But there should be no money lines.

                            Yeah I'm pretty sure there's no actual betting. It's free. You win it's 100 free points and so on. At least that's my understanding. So there won't be any anybody 'cashing out a 1000 bet points after day 1'

                                let me be clear for you knuckleheads


                                win day 1 : free points of 100

                                now you risk 100 points on day 2 for 200 on a 50/50 line with odds of +-125....its a good idea to go ahead and double up your points with the risk while choosing a line that is less than +100


                                now day 3....you can cash out 200 points...or risk 200 to win 100 more...which means -200 odds since you are risking your 200 points to win 100 more

                                no one should do that. you should cash out, and go risk -110 odds in the sbr book

                                it only gets worse from there


                                day 5 you get 500 points plus a bonus of 300 for 800 betpoints

                                if you had taken those points after day 2 and went to the sbrbook, day 5 would be worth 1391 points instead of 800

                                and so on




                                its a great idea, but wrong prize structure

                                    somehow i end up being the bad guy for pointing this out

                                    its easy to shut up and just take advantage of it which is what most of these guys do around here (they never receive infractions or bans for following the rules)

                                    i am just stating the obvious here

                                      You made a legit point Rudy but you're also assuming you know what motivates the participants.
                                      Like you said, if you wanna efficiently accumulate points & eat alot of pizza...you'll cash out after a streak of 2.
                                      Some players may want bragging rights or who knows, maybe they're using picks #1 & #2 to arb a points bet in the book.
                                      Doubtful but either way, ill bet there will be several guys going well past two picks.

                                        Simple...just select any side or total using SBR ODDS (may only pick NBA,NFL,NCAABB, or NCAAFB)

                                        When you make a selection YOU MUST post the line and the book from SBR ODDS to verify your bet.
                                        If your selection wins you earn 100 bet points.

                                        THERE ARE NO MONELYLINES...SIDES AND TOTALS ONLY!!!!!!!!

                                          Makes total sense pal. I prob would have never put that kind of thought into it and just played it out all the way! Lol.

                                          Anyone who says it negative when you make well thought out points should run as fast as they can into a wall to knock some sense into them!!

                                                      its easy to shut up and just take advantage of it which is what most of these guys do around here (they never receive infractions or bans for following the rules)

                                                      i am just stating the obvious here
                                                      to make up for the lower odds after the first round they could add points to the side/total chosen at random from 5 (or however many) predetermined choices. before the games start eliminate two of the choices so three are left and players could then decided to risk their winnings or not knowing which three amounts are left.

                                                      example: the points added for football are either +7, +4, +3, +2, or -3. +4 and +2 are eliminated at random pregame and ppl decide on deal or no deal. after the game is over +7 is chosen at random from the 3 remaining so everyone gets 7 more points.
