Two issues have come up this week:

1) You must post lines from a "normal" sportsbook.  NO BETTING EXCHANGES ALLOWED.

You are allowed to lock in a price days in advance, and if that price travels on you, you may adjust to the better price with no problem.

BetFair and other exchanges who offer much higher odds than the rest of us can get creates an unfair advantage and undermines the positive nature of the Contest.

 

2) Posting your play 59 seconds before your match starts is, by the letter of the law, acceptable.  But again, it undermines what we are trying to create with this Contest. 

I envision this Contest to be the "regulars" in the Forum posting their BEST play of the week, so others who know less about soccer betting can tail well-capped plays.

You all have 7 days with which to post a play.  There should be no excuse to post a minute or 2 before a match begins.  Nuff said.

 

Please continue to police each other, have fun and stay competitive.
