    NEW BET LIMITS / SIZING!

    • Minimum of 50 Picks. If you only make 49 picks, you're ineligible to win a cent.
    • Maximum of 125 Picks. If you exceed this, the excess plays won't count.
    • -999 limit on any one play.
    • Stake sizing: Up to 3 Units. You can risk up to 3 units on an underdog, and lay whatever necessary to win 3 units provided that the bet is -999 or less.

    GENERAL RULES


    • IF a matches odds are "offline" at Pinnacle at the time of my lines being posted, it will say 'offline'. I will make every attempt to get the odds updated as soon as possible, however, you are more than welcome to pick the side you like before that provided it is -999 or less. I will update with Pinnacle's odds on the match as soon as possible, that is what will be used for official grading purposes.
    • All contestants are to post their selections in each days Daily Lines Thread.
    • Each player is to keep track of their own YTD, and post it underneath each day's selection.
    • IF you do not include units with your picks, they will be graded as 1 unit base plays. You CANNOT amend unit sizes once any game goes off the board, SPECIFY UNITS in your picks post.
    • If you post -265, -354, etc, and say "Plays for 3 units each", that will be considered 'to win' 3 units.

      If you only want to risk 3 units, you must specifically state 'risking 3 units' on a fav.

      If it's an underdog, you can only ever risk 1-3.
    • The times listed in the Daily Lines thread are official and Eastern Time. Even if a game is postponed due to weather or court occupancy, you CANNOT make a play on a match after the listed start time has expired. On the rare occasion a match starts earlier than scheduled that will also not count. If the match is postponed into following day all original wagers will stand, but no new bets can be placed as the line will not be hung twice.
    • Any edits whatsoever in any picks post will result in that pick not being counted.
    • If a match goes one full set, it is official and the player advancing will be graded winner, and the retiree will be graded a loss.

    I will update the standings this morning. Going to get about 4 hours of sleep and I will be up and update the standings. SBR being down the other night set me back. Don't worry though. Standings will be up before the matches. Thanks to all those who continue updating their records. It saves me plenty of time.

    You misgraded yourself. You had Schiavone +160 something and counted that -4 something instead of -3. Your standings should be correct above.

    You left off a winner (Pennetta) when grading yourself on the 6th. Your standings should be correct as well.

    I graded all his plays the first day I did the standings. The only play I know of that don't count is Murray? Do an advanced search with Pico's post in the handicapping contests thread. The only difference in the record is he put down 39-13 and I put down 38-14? I would have to go back and see I guess if I marked a winner down a loser by accident
