            I think they should keep the same book for the duration of the constest to not change the dynamics of the contest.

              Exactly pavy..

              I hit a +1000 to get in the top 5. If I would've known people wouldn't be allowed to play huge underdogs anymore.. I would've adjusted my game plan accordingly

                This is SBR though. The rules are bent all the time without explanation. The people who organize these contests do not undertastand how contest management and contest strategy works.

                        That's called sports gambling.

                          For this particular contest it was a big screw up. Some days huge chalk and big favs are offered and some days only small favs and dogs are offered. If you are only playing ML's and are limited to 40 plays strategy is huge knowing what the available lines offered will be in advance.

                                Any chance you've monitored the actual NCAAB market? It's changing daily too. That's called life.

                                  The Greek has big MLs available not BetJamaica. It is noted on the contest page they changed the lines mid of the month and therefore changing the competition.

                                    You are an idiot aren't you? We are talking about a contest here where the rules have to be laid out in advance for a fair contest. The parameters of how long the contest runs and how many plays are allowed were established. Why can't the parameters of the ML's allowed be established too?

                                    This is not like playing at your book where you have infinite number of choices.
