SBR Tournament: The 1 seeds vs the 16s & The Rules

[mofome]

Mo, Im willing to throw up that 50 cash to help for prizes for this tournament.

very generous of you as usual. I wont have a lot this month, but the following month i may be able to scrape together 100 bucks of my own for the winner. i dont think we can do runner-up prizes unless more people want to contribute 10$ or something, but that would be extremely difficult to put together. i just want this to be as fun as possible and im willing to do anything that im able to do.

You guys can put the matchups on Matchbook(x-events).

[Bet Shooter]

Mo,
we should find a book to take bets on the matchups. Have someone who knows the posters very well make the odds (max bet of like $25), but that could be some fun! Obv we dont know some posters better then others, so just the matchups of who we know well

This seems like a solid contest that would probably be run again. Let's take the total Units of each player to set the brackets for the next contest. If you are one of the finalists you should be rewarded with a higher seed. Then with those numbers we can look to get some lines set on future contests. I know this is a lot of work so to Mo.

Also if you are looking for contributers for a prize pool, count me in.

Ill pitch in or someone else suggested we all put in a entry fee or donation if that sounds better like 10 or 20 bucks Mo said it would be hard to make it happen! whatever ya'll come up with be fine with me!!

Some interesting 5-12 matchups here. I pray I'm not the Drake to Capitalist Pig's Western Kentucky.

I'm also somewhat relieved that I'm not playing Nancy.

Should be interesting to say the least. Thanks again mo, dio, and whoever else played a pivotal role in the implementation of this thing.

I'm looking forward to it.

[Spooky]

Thanks for all you efforts Mo.

Great contest. Just like the good ole days.

Jeez a #2 seed. Sounds like a challenge

Will we be able to use alternate run lines.

-1.5 runs or -2.5 runs ????

Thanks.

[Iwinyourmoney]

Ill take a #5 seed

[BeatTheJerk]

this tourney as the pace is concerned looks like it might last almost a month ...................

[Wrigley]

when does it start mo?

[MadCapper]

** vs Picantel

FUN!

[rake922]

this tourney as the pace is concerned looks like it might last almost a month ...................

64s , 32s , 16s, 8s, 4s, 2s (aka the Finals)

that's well over a month pal.

[babaoriley]

I'm sure this will be addressed, but are we allowed to make 1H wagers in NBA? I understand that 2H lines may be out of the question as there is too much of a possibility of past posting, but 1H lines (if standardized) are such a great capping tool. My concern is that this contest will deviate into a strict MLB capping contest if there are too few NBA opportunities. I love making money, but I simply don't have the time to cap WNBA, nor do I care to even acknowledge its existence. Having 1H wagers available opens a lot more doors, considering there will only be a max of 1 game a day.

[MadCapper]

All the rules will be 100% clear soon.

1st half will count, i believe.

Mofo,

I will throw in something for prizes as well. I deal in high end graded cards. I am willing to donate some vintage sports related stuff. I think it will go good over here just let me know. I can bring it to the Bash to give the winner or winners

Whatever ideas the group decides on will be great with me. More work is fine, ive got offers from people to help and its all about making our tourneys as enjoyable as possible. the finalists here along with the top two in the best bet could be guaranteed a No 1 seed the next time around.

Dio, **, and junkman have each volunteered with any help. Kellen and jackpot have offered to help with prizes and lets not forget rake was the one that wanted to get something big like this going.

There is a max of 2 bets a day and we will include 2H wagers upon this request. That is a good option and since there is an interest expressed in it, we'll include it.

That is an awesome offer and if it doesnt set you back too much, it would be great to take advantage of.

Im going to make a post for prizes now.

[dwaechte]

This looks absolutely awesome mo, I'm excited. Thanks a ton for getting me in, although I hope Wilie Bee wasn't overly interested as well.

Any chance we could get AFL thrown in?

[Spooky]

First half wagers sound good, second half not so good.

Too subjective, timing and everything. Posted lines etc.

Also the question on alternative lines. Such as -1.5 or
-2.5 run lines etc.

Thanks again and best of luck!!

AFL we can do if there is a site that has the lines up and up early enough to post with the others. you let me know, ive never looked for those. we can do game lines and totals on AFL if that sounds cool.



Spookman! we can add runlines with no juice over -140. No adjusted RLs because those are more prop. If we want to add them next time we can, but we'll add the rl bets for ya.
