Max Wager Accepted (Risking) - 5 units per game per type of wager (ie ML, sides, total)
You can not wager more than 40 units in one day
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Absolutely NO bid retractions. Removal = 10% loss ; Better line = wager on both original + new line

Have you wagered and are not listed in the standings? Players inactive for 7 days will be removed from the standings.
However, I still have your data/records. Once you make a wager you will be re-added.

If you believe there is no chance you can lose one bet, make it your lock (*)! Only 1 lock/day.

Join anytime, everyone is invited!

- Since there are only a handful of crappy NCAA games tomorrow, I wont be updating the standings until after Saturdays full slate of NCAA games.

- Those Fresno St wagers from 2/5 have been correctly added to the standings.

      Fri, Feb 07, 2003, 11:24 		You said it Bandos. They are VERY GOOD. Unbelievable that the LAKER/KNICKS game came back to the line when LA was up 34 points. It's like these games have a magnetic effect towards the line.
