    Here are the Rules:
    >>

    1. Participants are to make 30 plays (sides, totals, props, team totals, spread) between May 26th-June 26th.
    2. Lines posted must be from an SBR A rated sportsbook or the SBR sportsbook.
    3. Unlimited amount of plays can be made in one day (although I would not recommend this)
    4. Any play from any sport is valid as long as it comes from an A rated sportsbook or the SBR sportsbook.
    5. Which ever poster (Seaweed) is up the most units when all plays have been made is officially declared the winner and best capper at SBR.
    6. Any play posted after Sunday, May 26th 12:00 A.M E.S.T up until 12:00 A.M E.S.T Wednesday, June 26th will be declared valid.
    7. When the contest bell has rung, and all plays have been counted, the winner will be given the exclusive right to choose the avatar for all the losing contestants. The losing contestants must comply with the avatar selected and keep it until August the 1st, 2013.

    What about people copying other person's picks.

    How do you avoid it?

    What are the unit sizes?

    I will be going on a camping trip for the long memorial day weekend.

    So, I will be posting my first pick now itself. The game is on Sunday 26th though.

    Miami / Indiana (Game 3) UNDER

    Line doesn't matter. Whatever the line is, I will be taking Under in that game.

    See you guys on May 28th.

    Enjoy the long weekend folks.

    May 26 - June 26? Only major sport in season is baseball. NBA and NHL are in playoffs so there's no variety in games there.

    Seaweed, are all sports available in this contest, including snooker? Are people that choose underdog winners going to be rewarded in this contest?

    I was just making sure all the plays weren't solely based on games with -110 lines.

    If that were the case, you wouldn't even be able to bet baseball, which is the only major sport in regular season form right now.

    Seaweed is a known expert in European backgammon handicapping. Most of those events are based on -110 lines, and I just wanted to make sure Seaweed wasn't pulling a fast one. You don't understand the sick and twisted mind he has, Mcduggly. There is nothing he won't do to gain any kind of advantage.

    Yes, all sports. Poster with the most units won will win. Picking underdogs is a high risk high reward, i advise caution.

    The person who posts the pick first gets the right to that pick.

    No point if bunch of people making same pick.

    Then its not a contest.

    Other option is to use some website to track so that picks will be invisible.

    Sounds fair. That is now a rule. Aggieshawn has already backed out, unsuprisingly. He must really love that avatar.

    Smoke is not an SBR Pro so this will not be for points. However, I have no problem accepting points.

    He is? I am then shocked that he has never awarded me more than 2 points for my winning plays. I will toss the winner 100 points but to be honest, I don't see me tossing anything.
