Yes round 1 lasts for 5 days.

Players must make 7 plays over those 5 days, 2 plays per day max. Spread it out anyway you like but must make all 7.

R1 Will run Tues (today), Wed, Thur., Fri., Sat.

need this question answered for strategic purposes:

can we bet more than 7 games as long as we don't go over 2 a day. (ie up to 10 games 1st round)?

Each player must use exactly 7 plays for this round...no more and no less.

I'm seeing some dormant match up threads from some, and I know people are going to be upset if they miss day one. So please check your PM's and read the Handicapping Contests forum.

SBR Lou · 08-26-08, 11:46 PM

Any night owls who might've missed this this morning or evening. You've got to enter at least one play tomorrow. If you have any questions feel free to PM or email at CrazyL@sbrforum.com.

so what happens with not enough bets?

fearless · 08-26-08, 11:51 PM

I was too distracted by real life to send in my info. Damn it!

No Show (robot makes plays?), not enough plays---you lose.

rjt721 · 08-27-08, 01:36 AM

Thought the total number of plays was 5 for the first round. My bad.

Screwed now. Will not be around Friday and likely won't have internet access, so I will only be able to reach 6 plays. Why is 2 the max. number of plays allotted per day? Pretty foolish.

Just ask Crazy to put the plays in for you. Tell him who you want for the day and he'll probably put them in for you.

Fair points, we will pull off the 2 max. Just have 7 picks in for round 1 which ends Saturday evening. Going forward we'll revise our picks structure.

Just go to the Handicapping Contests forum, enter your thread, and use the lines from the Daily lines thread.

I've given you all the links but you should locate it on your own as well so you can get back and forth. Handicapping Contests is on the far bottom of the forum list, there are 64 threads made, some on page two. Yours is there.

fingas · 08-27-08, 11:56 AM

crazyl, just check my post here:

http://forum.sbrforum.com/handicapping-contests/96721-daily-lines-128-man-august-27th-rd-1-a.html#post989096

There aren't no soccer lines plus most of the tennis matches don't have good odds, many favourites in these first rounds have low lines, so why not post handicap lines too?

This way i can pick lines from the favourites

Because no handicap lines were available at the time the MLB overnights were posted.

They've been added a few minutes ago.

Forgot about this.... I'm guessing it's too late to make my play quota?

No, we took off the play cap. Now you may make 7 in a day if you wish, you have until Saturday night to get those in. Just enter the handicapping contests forum and locate your thread.
