    wow got a taker quickly.

    i would be willing to be staked too by anyone, 70/30, you put up the 2500 and keep 70% of cash/points. i would also agree not to enter with any other group.

    the only college football contest i'm in is dsi, i'm running 6th out of 491 with a record of 118-82

Either way, all good and I hope all is well back in NY.
    Of course peavy if you dont get staked I will happily lend you the points to take a stab at it.

    Just shoot me a pm if you want to discuss.

    No need to beg darling. I can't win and there are very few times I'd be more than happy to trust someone else with my pts... charity or something like this for a forum legend.

    So if you do need them let me know. Not the same as my playing but I'll have a blast cheering for everyone in it. (However you better cash or I'll bloody smash you!)

    and there will be so many side bets on this...

    interesting that the poker tournament with huge points payoffs is december 15th. poker tables might be crazy on the 16th if guys want to roll over 15,000 or 20,000 poker points

    K13. Agreed. Feel like I'd be donating them. But that is a pretty decent top 3 prize.

    Story Time, I was in a College Football Bowl Contest a few years back on CBS, a free one so millions of entrants.

    I was 1st in the world the whole time, needed Buffalo to beat Uconn to clinch 1st and $10 000.
    Line was steaming big on Uconn, knew they lose just to penetrate me so I hedged a couple grand on Uconn.
    Buffalo was winning 20-10 and obviously lost 48-20....

    So I finished 2nd overall out of millions of people.


    (insert cool story bro pic)

    I'll take 50% of the stake if you want.

    A shame I just burned through 700 points in the casino.

    I'll throw out the same offer as Peavy. Anybody pays my buy-in and we'll split half.

    john..if we stake someone and/or another scenario where multiple posters are involved and the cash is won for 1st.. are u giving us the ok to exchange contact info for this contest?

    i know outside of it its normally not permitted right?

    just wondering how this would work out when the cash pours down and people come out pissed

    might be interested in buying some people or myself in and have to know prior since no one asked or i didnt see it asked

    I am currently securing backers for this contest as well. Can the prize money or points share of each poster be paid directly to them if I win a prize? I would be able to send the due amounts to whoever is responsible for paying out at SBR if I was to win.

    I am happy to pay out the points from my account - but if we win the cash prize that would become a bit messy.
