I think it's GREAT that a sports book is continually giving away FREE PRIZES for people who post in this forum...

However, there are some who don't seem to like this...

What is the general consensus guys?

Is it appreciated or not?

Thanks,
Ken

I think the gesture is much appreciated, and think the people who badmouth them are in the wrong. They are FREE, and they keep an interest that I would otherwise not have for many of these games.

Shrink with your smarts what kind of a question is this?? Who would say they didn't like these contests other than me cause I'm banned from entering?? Maybe Col. Corbin who was screwed out of 50$ from what I read today!! These contests should be graded equally for ALL !!

It was great to see the forum rally around Hache Man (even though he was fast asleep nowhere to be found) last night at halftime, when it looked like he may indeed win a 3000.00 FREE ACCT.

That has to be a good thing for the forum.

The contests are great. Anybody who complains that the contests are "impossible" to win needs to realize that Rio has given away THOUSANDS of dollars!

It is hard for me to understand how anyone could have a problem with these contest. They are fun and give you a little extra reason to care about the game whether you bet on it or not. I for one would like to thank Rio and hope they understand that regardless of your actions. There will always be those that complain for the sloe purpose to bitch!! Thank You RIO!!!!

The Basketball contest is OK. The Baseball contest is simply too hard to win.

Hey Ken can you name "some."

"However, there are some who don't seem to like this..."

Did Rio need a blow job today ...

what's not to love

whenever someone allows you the chance to win some free money - what's not to love.

these contests also give you something to root for in the games if/when the game turns against you gambling wise.

it's sorta like fantasy football/baseball/etc. in that you root for certain players to do well/not to do well.

kudos to them!

I think it's great. I'd prefer if the contest were less like lotteries though, and more like true handicapping contests.

one problem is that there are those who create ID's only for contest's....wind up winning the prize....

But never contribute on a daily basis with discussions etc etc....

probably kids....18 to 28 years old......

Good post! Actually, I don't think Rio needs one, but based on the way my gal has been treating me, I could use one.
