    Not sure how will this format work since basketball lines are only available on game day and not in advance. Will The Basketball Prick be picking one game every night until he has 4 for the week? Then people may wait until he has all his picks finished and then make picks for a free shot at money.

    It has to be something different than BTP format.

    Not participating in BTP but I'm pretty sure the format will be far different. All that was said is DSI would like to do something with hoops like they do with BTP/Football, not that they're starting a Beat the Prick in Hoops.

    Probably i'm wrong, but i didn't read anything about USA, Canada, or all the world contestants. It seems no problem for everyone. Correct? Only $50 deposit from now on.

    Too many strings attached as usual in these contests, IMO.

    PS. I deposited $50 for BTP.
    Now I have $474, some from BTP prize, some from my winning bets.
    Have I to deposit other $50?
    Thank you

    this is nice!
    really looking for this one.
    is it the same as the BTP in football? 4 selections/week?

    Why don't you request a payout and right before the contest starts deposit $50?

    the best part is, i have heard nothing about points for non depositors

    if points arent awarded, then we wouldnt need a "prick" and could just break it up by (positive) units won

    Seems like posters could wait till things are ironed out before all the stupid repetitive questions.

    Richard Moss should step in as the "pricks" replacement for the hoops version, just so you can call the contest "Beat the Dick".

    If there's a 700x rollover then forget it

    "The rules and details are still being ironed out before we start Jan 1st"

    It won't be 700x but if you based it on previous contests like BTP then a 4x or 6x will be reasonable.

    I will make the deposit this time for sure. I am afraid if I do though, they will call even more than they do now!

    So the top winner takes all? I hate splitting it and only getting like 10 bucks divided by 30 people.

    To clarify guys, this contest will not feature a "Prick".. It's a regular handicapping league.

    it's not free money. the 6x rollover is very steep. Maybe the prizes should be given an option. Either cash for 25% of the whole prize or if you want 100% you have to rollover 6x.

    Posters go 7-0, 6-1 will share the $5000 weekly prize. I believe they use action points as tie-breaker.
