    The SBR BEST BET -- Feedback Thread.....
    So far 66 individuals have participated at least 1 time in the best bet thread. We get anywhere between 20-30 participants each day. I think it has been a success.

    I'd like to thank Diogee and LK1 for helping out. Its not the easiest thing to grade and it does take some time.

    Moving on, I will be implementing a few changes with baseball just around the corner....

    1) Grading will not just be win/loss but I will also include UNITS won/loss along with your record.

    For example: A -186 loser will be reflected as 0-1 -1.86 and a +186 winner will be reflected as 1-0 +1.86.

    2) For the ATS plays that have already been graded, I will use a -105 grading scheme.

    So if you are 10-5 with all ATS plays your record will show as 10-5 +4.75.

    But from here on out (starting tomorrow, Monday) I will need you to post your juice along with the play.

    So that means you should be posting Cavs -1 -108 or Nuggets +3 -110, etc.

    If you do NOT leave the juice along with your play I will grade it as -110. So if you post Cavs -1 and they lose, your grade will be 0-1 -1.10

    3) Moneyline Favorites will be allowed for BASEBALL and HOCKEY; But not for Basketball and Football. For those sports you will have to use ATS plays. If you don't I will not grade it.

    Moneyline underdogs are always allowed for every sport and the units won will be reflected in your record.


    If you have any suggestions or comments please leave them in this thread.

    Thanx again for participating!

    Madcapper, although I have only picked 4 times, I really enjoy the thread and the great job you guys do with grading it. It is always posted early and usually appears accurate.

    I really enjoy it and look for it daily, keep up the good work.

        I love soccer, but not many post soccer or tennis. I will ask for no soccer or tennis favs more than -150.

        Is that OK?

              Sounds fair. Can we post bets with asian handicap?

                It would be easier for the grading if you didn't.

                Thanx in advance.

                  It's hard to meet the -150 rule without asian handicap. Not fair.

                    Oh sorry. I thought you meant European Lines!

                    Of course you can use Asian Handicap!!

                        How about a minimum number of plays per week to stay in the posted results? Id think 4-5 shouldnt be a problem for anyone.Just a thought.

                          I was thinking bout that. But then people will start 0-2. stop posting. wait until their record is erased and start again. this keeps everything in check.

                            I like the thread. Just curious to see what people are on. Could care less about units-that's all ego stuff.

                              I like the threads too, but with work and the time I get home I can be too busy betting my bets than posting picks. I usually post on the weekend or if Ihave an early euro play before work. Good job madcapper and company.

                                MadCapper,

                                I have been posting the juice with my plays all along, and I have been reporting my YTD units every day.

                                That said, a rule is a rule, so if you want to make my three losers -105 each, so be it.

                                  LT you would have an unfair disadvantage because everyone has gotten cheaper juice.

                                    I tried to make it fair. This isnt a contest.

                                      No problem **, -105 retro it is. Besides, you are allowing us to post real juice in future, so that's cool.
