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.

Thanks for all the continued hard work of keeping us up to date Mex!

[StraitShooter]

what happi here?

guy screws up and does not pick enough games

frantically fine tooth combs rules..wow I can legally cheat..this is one the crazy never saw comin..

the crazy never expected this one..but you live you learn and it wont happen next time he thinks to himself...

poster to contestants--hi fellas..just wanted to let you know I am gonna circumvent the rules..morally I am wrong ..technically I am right..so i am ready to fight

other poster post limits daily so others keep in mind..to avoid situations like the one currently deployed..poster negrow bashes and bullies him psychologically

poster who finishes fourth has reason to feel slighted..dont pretend be friendly frank when you sinister steve

all in all..poster did kick some ass..probably would have won if even fairly dealt cards..

he do good so no prob with me congrats to he

[StraitShooter]

When a man plays two matches..he can lose two matches

when a man plays one against himself..he can lose no more than one..but have played 2

[EaglesPhan36]

Mex, I think you had my stats wrong. I was 22-20 heading into yesterday, went 1-2. So 23-22 (-7.40)

I had Djokovic for 3, Bondarenko for 3 and took Soderling late for 1. So that should have been 1-2 (-1.08)

[EaglesPhan36]

Sorry, my math was wrong but record correct .... 23-22 (8.94)

[EaglesPhan36]

Del Potro -406 (3 units)

No big deal here. You found no rule about picking both sides. I would do the same if I was running out of plays and was in your position. Lou should have posted it up to make sure, but it happens. Good luck the rest of the way sir.

No problem Mcbaseball.

Sorry about EP. I will adjust everything after tonights standings.

[EaglesPhan36]

No problem. I added that Soderling one at the last minute, so it wasn't with my two other picks. You're doing a stellar job with your picks & the updates. Kudos!

Are you + or -? In one post it indicated the other way.

[yisman]

By the way, EP, that Soderling play I don't think was eligible. Check the post time and the start time in the first post (even though it didn't start until 9:30 or so, it was listed earlier and got the usual delays).

record: 37-22-2 (-0.8)

M.Cilic +360, risk 3 units

That is what happened. Soderling was posted past the start time, so I did not count it.

[pat venditto]

R. Nadal -310
S. Williams -255

Risking 3 units on both

[yisman]

Shouldn't the Williams line be in tomorrow's thread? Is this thread for tomorrow too?

R. Nadal -310

Uh, what? I think I need an English translation.

[yisman]

I think he's upset about people being able to take both sides of a match to reach the minimum amount of picks.

R.Nadal -310, risk to win 3 units
