I am happy to announce that Skybook Sportsbook (www.skybook.com) has agreed to sponser The Rx. NBA BEST BET Thread. Starting today all BEST BETS will be monitored for consectutive winners, and posters posting winning selections on multiple consectutive days will be able to win any of the free accounts listed below.
Prize Breakdown
5 winning days in a row: $25.00 deposited to betting account with a 2x rollover
6 winning days in a row: $50.00 deposited to betting account with a 2x rollover
7 winning days in a row: $100.00 deposited to betting account with a 3x rollover
8 winning days in a row: $250.00 deposited to betting account with a 4x rollover
9 winning days in a row: $500.00 deposited to betting account with a 5x rollover
10 winning days in a row: $1,000.00 deposited to betting account with a 6x rollover.
Now I would like to list the contest rules:
1. The contest is for NBA plays only. For contest purposes players will have to use Skybook Sportsbook NBA lines that will be posted at the top of the daily NBA Best Bet thread. Only entire game, side or total selections will be accepted for contest purposes.
2. Anyone who is a registered Rx. Poster for at least 30 days is eligible to play. No accounts, or posts ups are necessary. Naturally winners will have to register at Skybook Sportsbook to make use of their winnings.
3. The contest will run through the NBA Regular season.
4. After hitting 5 in a row, players have the option of taking the $25 prize OR risking it all to go on for the next available prize.
5. As soon as someone WINS, (either hits 10 in a row, or takes one of the lower amounts) the contest starts over for everyone. All contestants revert to zero consectutive wins.
6. If 2 or more people are on a different streak (one with 5 and one with 6 for example) at the same time, only the higher winner has the option to take the winnings and start the game over. The player in second place needs to contiue play until he either takes the lead, or start over if the leader ends the round.
7. If two or more players are playing on the same streak, as soon as one of the players chooses to take the winnings, the person choosing to not go further will receive half of the prize amount, and the contest continues.
8. As soon a player loses that player may start over the next day. Even after a loss you are not eliminated from the current contest segment.
9. When a player goes for the 10th or highest prize, the contest either ends if that player wins, or continues if the player loses. In the event two contestants accrue 10 wins simultaneously, contestants will advance to additional rounds until one is eliminated and a winner is declared, or the contestants can call a draw, and split the $1000 account.
The contest starts over for all other participants when a contestant reaches 10 consecutive wins.
10. You must post a play everyday during a winning streak. (except if there are no games scheduled). You may start at zero consectutive wins at any time.
12. No editing allowed. When a posting error occurs feel free to contact myself, or any other mod in a separate thread. If possible we will make corrections that do not effect your actual selection.
13. Contestants are encouraged to keep track of consectutive winners and post number of consectutive wins with each new play. Natrually I will be keeping records also.
14. In the event of duplicate selections in situations where the contest can be ended by two or more contestants, the earliest posted duplicate play will get credit.
15. Any unforseen circumstances will be ruled on by Skybook Sportsbook management as they occur.
Please give www.skybook.com a vist and show our support.
Thanks to all, Wilheim
