#1 Posted: 3/9/2009 7:31:27 PM Nobody will come close to winning $100,000 if they also try to win the monthly contest.....so what would you do? |

#3 Posted: 3/20/2009 11:36:03 AM Wow, so it is 25 in a row now.
Is the prize presently set to award 100,000 to that lucky person or has it been set to 10,000 because we already have a winner this year? |

#12 Posted: 3/28/2009 3:37:27 PM Somebody will get 25 in a row...they just have too. If you've never played this game before it just seems so easy...(I KNOW IT'S NOT). I've gotten up to four a few times and then I start getting nervous...I need to be more selective and also realize I DON"T HAVE TO MAKE A PICK EVERDAY. The next time I get up to four I will submit once every two or three days. |

#13 Posted: 4/11/2009 5:40:41 AM your odds will be the same every two or three days.. unless you want to be very selective about your picks, but I think you will notice the percentage won't change much |

#14 Posted: 4/11/2009 10:08:35 AM Corporal is right. They never put easy pks. All of the pks are either less than 6 pts or -150. Like my 9 gmer went down with the Lakers last night. They should have beaten the damn Blazers just to prove as pt! Can't get past nine gms and that hat! |

#15 Posted: 4/11/2009 5:54:59 PM That is not true about the picks....sometimes you will get games with higher point spreads |

#16 Posted: 4/12/2009 2:20:31 AM I wasn't talking about point spreads necessarily, just saying with gambling, even if you wait you never know, so might as well just go with your best pick of the day. |

If you are going for the big money; don't get paranoid about taking a day or two off if you're just not 'feelin' it' that day.
BTW: Congats on your original win.

#22 Posted: 4/16/2009 1:49:29 AM I think it just depends on how you start out the month. I've never gotten higher than 6 in row. When I've gotten a few in a row I've tended to "over think" things if that makes sense. I think the worse the thing to do is to read what everyone else is saying about a game you might like, it seems to "F*#%" with your mind. Researching stats and trends has helped, so has taking a few days off away from it (you have 7 days to make your next pick) Good luck.

#23 Posted: 4/16/2009 7:58:52 AM Tuppy, I live in Turkey.
Let's say I won the prize.
Is the prize money is sent to my country?
Do you work for nothing or what??
