    Default 64 Man Round One: aguy vs. LVHerbie

    Rules
    • One entry per household. No exceptions.
    • MLB, NBA, and NHL: moneylines, sides, and totals. There will be a -300/+300 cap on each wager. Dogs that are priced higher than +300 will be offered at +300. Favorites priced higher than -300 will not be on the board.
    • Picks are 'to win' one unit on favorites, 'risk one' on dogs.
    • Contestants must use the plays listed in the Daily Lines thread. Lines for MLB, NBA, and NHL will be posted overnight and the day of game day up to 7PM EST.
    • Once you make a pick in your head-to-head match up thread, it is official and cannot be canceled under any circumstance, no exceptions will be made.
    • You may pick the opposite selection to your opponent (to fade them), but you may not pick the exact same side or total. You may also not pick both sides to the same game to minimize losses to juice.
    • Any past posted plays will NOT be counted. If the scheduled start time per the Daily Lines thread is 7:30, any plays at 7:31 will be disregarded. Plays at 7:30 will stand. All times listed in the Daily Lines thread are EST.
    • The Handicapping Contests subforum automatically prevents any user from 'editing' posts, but in the event of a rare software glitch, any picks posts that are edited will incur a 1.50 unit penalty and count as a loss on their record.
    • In the event of a cancellation due to act of God, weather, or other forfeiture, your play will be graded as a push. This push will count towards your minimum requirement but not your maximum. In other words, you will have the option of making another play, but you will not be penalized. Please note that this stipulation only applies to pushes based on event cancellation; ordinary pushes on sides and totals WILL count towards your maximum allowed.
    Round Structure
    • All rounds will run from Tuesday to Sunday.
    • All rounds will have a minimum 8 picks, maximum 12.
    • If you make less than the minimum amount of 8, one unit will be subtracted from your record for each missing pick. If you make over the max of 12, excess plays will be no actioned without a unit penalty.

    serious question... with my wonderful handicapping ability if I manage to go below -8 units and this guy doesn't put in any picks does that mean I lose the round?

    I don't have a clue, but I would imagine you need to stay within -8 units
