    3] There is a minimum of 20 picks, max of 30.
    4] There is a cutoff of -599 on favorites, anything higher will not count. No limit on dog ML's.
    5] Each player is to keep track of their own YTD, and post it underneath each day's selection.
    6] Each play is to win 1 unit on a fav, risk 1 on a dog.

    At conclusion of contest, CrazyLou will verify all records and compare to his own record to determine if he has won the contest.

    Sign me up. I won't post any plays. Just fade CrayLou's women's plays and I'd be up 20 units.

    Exactly, I'm going to be like Kobe Bryant in the 4th Q knocking down tennis picks, I ain't rushin for nothin' I'm strictly out-handicapping and out-working the field. Matter of fact, if I have to stay up till the sun comes up staring at line movement and crunching numbers I will..

    Bring it...

    Nah...It's more like the last stand at the battle of Alamo for CrazyLou. Will go down in flames.

    I think all the people who jump on Lou about his picks - regardless of whether they bet tennis or not regularly - should be involved here. Put up or shut up. Thanks for the contest Lou.

    It's in the tennis forum, I thought his self imposed ban was Players Talk only.

    It's actually if CrazyL finishes #1 in the contest, then no one wins.

    I don't see him doing that, but it's highly unlikely that I'll win either. I'm in it for the competition.

    As stated in rule 1, I will be posting the lines myself for posters to choose from, outside lines are not permitted. The lines will be the most competitive available at the time, in all likelihood from Pinnacle Sports.

    RULES
    1] CrazyLou will post ML's only for ATP and WTA in a thread titled "Daily Tennis Lines: June[x]" in the Tennis Handicapping subforum.

    Damn I don't have a BetPhe account.

    Only BoDog.

    I am going to participate but I guess I won't win anything.

    I'll participate. Tennis season means I'm back

    Don't use American betting sites though, so I guess I'll play for fun

    This should be a piece of cake CrazyLou. I followed one and only one
    of your tennis plays -170 and lost $170.00. Just have to fad your plays.
    Of course I'm only giving you a hard time. G/L with all your plays.
    Thanks for the contest and the opportunity.

    I'm in, how do I join?

    Also Lou, can we only pick straight up winners? or are for example +3.5 / -3.5 game lines allowed? and can be bet on total number of games?
