With bases ready to go full bore, I anticipate an influx of new posters along with the usual cast of regulars.
First of all... welcome.
Second, if you are new here, please read the rules thread.
There is a minimum 1 unit bet on all plays, max of 5 units. I ask that you risk at least one unit on dogs and to win one unit on favorites. Makes it easier to calculate when grading.
Lastly, please post the date of your games if posted at least a day in advance so there is no confusion.
Any questions, please ask in this thread.
Thanks & GL.

A refresher as a new season begins...
Plays that are acceptable:
Absolutely no :
Also:
We are willing to let it slide, within reason. But please make every effort possible to remember to post the book where you are getting your odds from! Especially if it is a good number or a type of play no one else seems to be able to find.
Plays that are acceptable:
- Full game Spread
- Full game Totals
- Full game Money line
- First Half Spread
- First Half Total
- First half Money line
- Parlays, But only up to 6 teams
- Teasers, But only 2 and 3 teams
Absolutely no :
- 2nd half plays.
- Props of any kind.
- Teasers that are more than 3 teams.
- Parlays that are more than 6 teams.
- Pleasers or other Exotics.
- Open Teasers or Parlays.
- Futures.
- When upgrading a play where the line has changed, I will grade both plays as one, but will use the new line posted when grading the play. So if you post Siena -4 for 2 units and decide to upgrade with Siena -3 for an additional unit, I will treat it as one play on Siena -3 for 3 units. Similarly, if just the odds change, I will grade the total units on the play using the most recent odds. For example, a poster has Boston -145 (1 unit) and later wants to add a unit but the odds are -155, the play will become Boston -155 (2 units).
- When upgrading where the line has not changed, just add the units. Graded as one play.
- On the flip side, if you're looking to downgrade a play, a new play must be posted as a hedge (or opposite side) of the original. Graded as 2 separate plays. Just trying to keep the poster and myself on the same page when posting results, whether it be W-L records or total profit/loss.
- When posting parlays, include the odds for each leg. If there's a push I have no way of figuring the reduced odds.
- If you have a comment for a poster, post it in the Discussion thread.. not in their thread. Everyone will see it there. Please stay out of any threads you did not start.
