Gentlemen, we know your eyes are on the "pigskin" right now, but with the fast approach of the NBA season on us, we just have to announce our new season long NBA contest "getting to know your team"...

GAMBLER'S AVENUE, IN CONJUNCTION WITH BUCSFAN67 ARE PROUD TO PRESENT THE FOLLOWING CONTEST FORMAT..........

This contest combines all our favorite contest formats, combined into one, the luck of the draw, the sweet 16 style format, bracketing one on one Match ups, and handicapping skills ....here is the concept guys....

32 players enter at $100.00 per player. The 32 players will draw an NBA TEAM which will be THEIRS throughout the entire tournament. The idea is get to know YOUR TEAM.

The 32 players will be divided into one of the four divisions, Atlantic, Midwest, Central, and Pacific, just like in the NBA. The first round consists of the first 20 games for each team, you simply have to pick whether your team will cover the spread or not (lines will be posted the night before on the forum, each day) If you are right, you get a win, if you are wrong, u get a loss.

After 20 games, the playoffs start. The top 8 seeds in each conference make it to the playoffs Those 16 players all get their 100.00 back, no rollover. We will then seed the playoffs just like the NBA and you will go head to head in the playoffs.

Those rounds will be 10 games each and you have to beat your opponent to move on. (there will be a tiebreaker game at the end of each round to predict the total points of the game for any ties that may arise) The first round playoff winners (8 players) will get another 200.00, no rollover. Same format again in the brackets moving on. The four winners reaching the conference finals get another 300.00 (with a 3x) rollover.........same format again, and the 2 winners reaching the finals get another 500.00 each (4x rollover)..

The finals will be 15 games, and the winner of the finals gets another 1000.00 (4x rollover) So the winner will get a total of 2100.00 in winnings, second place 1100.00, third and fourth place 600.00 each......all players making the playoffs get their entry back.

There is a total of 6400.00 in prizes being offered.

…and another added bonus, each day you pick "your" team to cover or not, you also pick the exact score "your" team will score that day......anytime you hit it, you will get an "extra" 100.00 Match Play.....(win as many times as u can).....the point truly is "to get to know YOUR team"..........

We hope you like the format, it is a little different than the other ones, but we are always striving to bring you "fun" contests, with "great" prizes, and a chance for all to play and win.......we think this one "has it all".......

Deposit now and fill up the 32 spots in a first come first served deal. We are offering 50% Match Play to players new and old that deposit $300 or more up to $2000.

That’s right, Deposit $300 get your $100 entry and $200 plus a $100 Match Play bonus, we are expecting this to fill up soon, so don’t lose a spot.

BILL, THE LINES WILL BE POSTED THE NIGHT BEFORE, AND U WILL SIMPLY CHOOSE WHETHER YOUR TEAM COVERS OR NOT IN THE THREAD....THERE WILL BE DAYS YOUR TEAM DOESNT PLAY, OF COURSE, BUT WHEN THEY DO, YOU WILL DECIDE WHETHER THEY COVER THE SPREAD OR NOT....IF YOU ARE RIGHT, YOU GET A WIN, IF YOU LOSE, YOU GET A LOSS...

THEREFORE, IT WONT MATTER WHETHER YOU DRAW A "GOOD" TEAM, OR A "BAD" TEAM, IT JUST MATTERS HOW YOU HANDICAP THEM......

THE LAKERS WILL BE NO BETTER THAN THE NUGGETS I THIS FORMAT.....

SHOULD BE FUN......

well it matters to some extent. For example the most popular east coast team would benefit me vs the nuggets who I will never see what they look like EVER.

But its like a fantasy draft where some things you leave to chance and everyone has the same odds of getting the team they like.

Where are we going to get the line from? will they be all posted in the thread? will it change with GA's line? Once i see how it will work I'll be in.

ITS VERY SIMPLE BILL...

THE NIGHT BEFORE I WILL POST THE OVERNIGHT LINES FROM G.A.....

THE LINES WILL NOT CHANGE, YOU WILL HAVE ALL NIGHT, AND ALL DAY, TIL GAMETIME, TO PUT IN THE THREAD WHETHER YOUR TEAM WILL COVER OR NOT....ANYTIME A PLAY ISNT MADE IT WILL BE A LOSS......

LIKE I SAID, THERE WILL BE DAYS YOUR TEAM DOES NOT PLAY, THOSE DAYS U NEED TO DO NOTHING.....EVERYONE KEEPS THE SAME TEAM THROUGHOUT THE TOURNEY....

WELL JUST LIKE WITH ANY OTHER CONTEST, IF WE DONT GET THE NEEDED PLAYERS , THEN THE MONEY WOULD BE REFUNDED, AND THE CONTEST CALLED OFF...

BUT I DONT SEE THAT HAPPENING...WE HAVE THIS MONTH TO GO BEFORE NBA KICKS OFF, AND WHEN PEOPLE SEE THE PRIZES THAT ARE OFFERED, I THINK THEY WILL GET IN.......

ESPECIALLY SINCE GAMBLERS AVENUE IS OFFERING A 50% MATCHPLAY FOR DEPOSITS OVER 300.00 JUST TO GET PEOPLE TO TRY THEM OUT......

THE MATCHPLAY WILL COVER THE COST OF YOUR ENTRY, IF U PLAY IT WELL....

HALF THE PLAYERS WILL GET THEIR ENTRY BACK....

THATS PRETTY GOOD.....

I'm in if need be, sounds like fun. I find each year there are certain teams I either have no clue on or get a decent feel for. The Lakers are one that notoriously I have trouble with. If I think they will play well they play horrible and vice versa. Would be fun to concentrate on only one team all year for the contest.

Definitely in if needed.

I know what u mean Patrick, i have trouble with the lakers too....Also the Knicks, and the Jazz....seems anytime i go against them, they play like worldbeaters, then at home they squeak out a win, when favored by 14....

and that in itself should make this format fun, and different.....

Sounds very interesting.

If I wish to participate can I take the $100 entry fee from the money currently in my account, or must it be a fresh deposit?
