Ill beat that prick!!!

[vassman86]

So, I entered the contest pretty late (Week 7), which only gives me 10 weeks to make picks (40 picks max). Am I unable to qualify for the grand prize at the end of the tourney? I know it says I'd be eligible if I make a minimum of 48 picks, but is there any way I can still qualify? Is there a way to make more than 4 picks per week?

Thanks!

[bradthebloke]

i know this has prob been asked already but are we going against the closing line or whatever it was when we posted the play?

Correct, 48 picks are required for Grand Prize eligibility. That is no longer possible but you are still eligible for all remaining weekly prizes.

Whatever you lock the bet in at and displays on your ticket is the line used for grading.

i went 2-2(poor week) but prick went 1-3 was there a payout for 2-2 if the double play lost also the prick doesnt list his double so cant tell how that may affect scoring

The Best Bet is the play with the 2X icon next to it, and is to win 2 units instead of 1, in this case it's the Indianapolis Colts:

You went 2-2 but lost 1.30 units, so you were not paid out.

Simply finish with more units than the Prick (you must be positive units) and cash in on that week's prize. If the Prick goes 4-0 ATS (NFL/NCAAF), nobody wins any money that week.

wish i can win just one week

[xxxvince]

sucks cause my unit is very low even if i end up in winning for that week beating the prick.. sucks

[davidchong]

delays to credit prizes at the greek?

This is such an entertaining thread to read... so many bozos asking questions that are CLEARLY answered in the contest details.

Keep up the good work.

[KKoz9]

Had a question and figured out the answer myself...had to edit so as not to embarrass myself.

I asked this in another thread before seeing this. I want to sign up at Jazz but they have me as having an account already with them. Only one I have is with Looselines I believe.What can we do about this if anything?

[saintjames]

[Keith Richard]

What are you guys gonna do about jazz? Just boot their ass if they won't let us have a loose lines and jazz account .. The rep told me they're pretty much the same thing with different owners.. I can't get a Jazz account cause I signed up with LL's first.. Doing anything about this?

Anybody can't sign up for the contest this week cuz they have an account at one of their sister books?

You are allowed to have an account at Jazz and LooseLines. Did the software prevent you? If so, I can call them because that's not supposed to happen, it did when the contest began when they were updating their software but it's not supposed to occur.

[Skidcom]

Already one down this is so sad free money and I can't Beat the Prick

If so, I can call them because that's not supposed to happen, it did when the contest began when they were updating their software but it's not supposed to occur.[/QUOT I contacted live chat and they created a new account ID with Jazz which works fine at the sportsbook but the BTP contest box will not accept it for some reason. They created a new account because the the other ID i i had was for Betruss which was taken over by Looselines I believe.

I figured out what my problem was. The browser I usually use(Flock) seems to be incompatible with certain features of SBR. I had a problem with this when I bought stuff in the SBR store earlier. Some things just don't show up so impossible to click on them.I signed up using IE and seems fine.
