CONTESTANTS WHO NEED TO FIX THEIR SELECTIONS- Patrick McIrish, Scripter, Chriscol and Miklos (But Others Should Take Note of the Problem)

[JeffH]

You can edit your original posts any time up to 6:45pm this evening.

Patrick McIrish: You have exceeded your intitial bankroll of 40 units. You have the following selections:
- 32 to win 4 Detroit (Series) -800
- 24 to win 4 Colorado (Series) -600
- 22 to win 4 Dallas (Series) -550
- 4 to win 18 Philadelphia (Conference) +450
- 4 to win 24 Colorado (Stanley Cup) +600
- 2.8 to win 2 New Jersey -1 -140
- 4.4 to win 2 Ottawa -1 -220
That's 93.2 units at risk on a 40 unit bankroll.


Scripter: You have exceeded your intitial bankroll of 40 units. You have the following selections:
- 2 to win 3.3 Boston +1.5 -165
- 2 to win 2.5 Boston at NEW JERSEY over 5.0 +125
- 1 to win 1.6 Toronto +1.5 -230 & over 4.5 -120 (Pays +160)
- 2.3 to win 2 OTTAWA -1.5 -115
- 2 to win 2.5 New York at OTTAWA over 5.5 +125
- 2 to win 10.5 Edmonton -1.0 +525
- 2 to win 2.6 Edmonton at DALLAS over 5.0 +130
- 2 to win 3 Toronto (Series) +150
- 28 to win 4 Ottawa (Series) -700
- 2.2 to win 2 Tampa Bay (Series) -110
That's 45.5 units at risk on a 40 unit bankroll.

If they are not changed, all that I can do is add them to the grading workbook in the order that they were received.

For Patrick McIrish, the futures selections came first, so the grading workbook would have Detroit (Series) -800 included (using 32 units), Colorado (Series) -600 rejected because only eight units were left in the bankroll, Dallas (Series) -550 rejected because only eight units were left in the bankroll, Philadelphia (Conference) +450 included (using another 4 units) and Colorado (Stanley Cup) +600 included (using the last 4 available units). All of the individual games would be disregarded because no further units remain.

For scripter, the individual game selections came first, consuming 13.3 units of the bankroll. I would then move onto the futures. The grading workbook would have Toronto (Series) +150 added (using an additional 2 units), Ottawa (Series) -700 rejected (28 units were required but only 24.5 units remained in the bankroll) and Tampa Bay (Series) -110 added (using an additional 2.2 units). This would use only 17.5 units of the bankroll.

Chriscol: You are also over the 40 unit bankroll. The same logic will apply to you.

Miklos: You are also over the 40 unit bankroll. The same logic will apply to you.

Becareful I've seen people parlay total and sides for 1 Unit and also play Sides in the same game for another Unit. One good example of this is seen in the
http://therxforum.com/6/ubb.x?a=tpc&s=100090022&f=428090432&m=7063090117
by some posters such as CrazyCanadian (who must've stole my 'crazy' name)

Seems to me this will be a very hard task for you to ensure all records are correct and posts are absolutely legit.

I'll try my best to spot out any flaws for ya buddy.

Hi Jeff. Thanks for great for running the contest.
i made the mistake with the ottawa series...still confused sometimes with the american lines like -700 versus the decimal lines i'm used to.
so what have i to do to fix the problem now? i'm confused a bit.
is it ok for you,if you just cancel all my series bets? or only the ottawa series?
what i understand is ,that all individual games count (as posted earlier) and then...? toronto series counts and i dont know?
please do whatever is necessary. for me it's ok if you cancel all series bets. i will be more carefull with these american lines next time.
Thanks

 

Jeff - very sorry. My mistake. I was thinking I could win 40 units, I should have read the rules closer. I will go with what you said. LOL. Detroit to win this series and the futures on Philly and Colorado. I understand it than I can't make any more plays until Detroit wins?

Thanks for the contest. As you can see pucks is not my thing....
