    what would you do?

    I am currently 7th in BTP. 3-1 on week and haven't made last play. Only reason to make last play would be to qualify for weekly prizes as Prick shit the bed this week. Issue is, it would have to be played on either SNF total or MNF game. The other issue is it has to be my 2x play.

    The result of the game will likely move me up or down 2 spots, give or take, in standings.

    A win and I would likely pick up ~400 free points, and 2 spots in rankings (worth $200 or so). A loss costs me $200 (based on dropping two spots).

    Do you gamble on it even knowing you are forcing a play, or just pass and wait for next week??

    I thought you had to make 5 plays a week with 1 best bet. If you have no plays you like maybe lay off if you are allowed. But I would Play NO/Dal if I had to make a play.You must make one 2-unit best bet each wee

    Thats just to qualify for the weekly prizes. For season ending prizes there are a minimum number of picks you have to make during contest and have eclipsed that already.

    you don't have to make the play, obviously shouldn't if you're not confident about anything on the board.
