    As I understand it a player can wait until week 10 to become pro and still be eligible for prizes.
    Is that right? Also, if non pro accumulates bet points does he get them when he becomes pro?
    Great contest. Glad rules were changed. Intend to become pro eventually.

    wish it was pros only like some are saying here... but it looks like only after week 10 like in years past?

    1. At the end of week 10, all non SBR PRO users will be removed from the contest.

    SBR Sportsbook freeplay points are credited each week to all users who beat The Prick. They must be rolled over once (see tutorial). After that, the standard SBR Store redemption rules apply, you must be an SBR Pro to unlock the SBR Store, and your balance resets to a maximum of 3,000 points upon your membership upgrade (i.e. if you have 7,000, you'd have 4,000 docked).

    I think they are celebrating that only SBR Pros will be competing for the $50,000. Remember that everyone was a forumville newbie at one time and deserves our warm welcome.

    All you need to do regarding this contest is open account at Coinbase/Circle. Winnings can be deposited directly and then you send to bank.

    im assuming you can just make an account on "Coinbase/Circle" mid way through the season if youre doing well in the contest and actually have a chance at placing ???

    You can do it any time provided it is ready by time of payouts.

    I have a request = Lock picks and allow all contestants to see locked picks 10 - 15 minutes before post. We can tail or fade and analyze line moves. More fun.


    Great move, the way you're limiting non-PROs = F#^% those broke diks.

    Thanks for a great contest.

    TT, the real question is, if a broke dik non pro doesn't have $100 to become pro Now, what makes you think they will have $100 left in the middle of the football season?

    No - everyone gets locked. Tail or Fade for real money, outside of the contest. You couldn't fade or tail in the contest, you'd be locked.
