    2019 SBR Betpoints SuperContest
    Loosely based on the famous Westgate SuperContest.

    Two separate pools are available. 200 Points & 500 Points entry.

    You may have up to 2 entries in each pool.

    Send all points to this post for entries.

    State clearly what pool/s you are joining and how many entries in each.




    Prize Structure

    First 60% of pool
    Second 25% of pool
    Third 15% of pool


    Rules

    Maximum of two (2) entries per contestant per pool. Each entry shall be treated as a separate entry for all purposes, including prize distribution.

    The SuperContest will begin Wednesday, September 4, 2019 and conclude on Sunday, December 29, 2019 (provided no games are in delay).

    The contest is based on selecting winning teams against the Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook contest line. Contestants must select five (5) professional football teams per entry, per week. Contestants may not select both sides of the same game on a single entry. In the event a contestant has two entries they may select one side of the game on one (1) entry and the opposite side of the same game for the second entry.

    Each winning selection against the point spread will count as one (1) point. Ties (pushes) against the point spread count as one half (1/2) point.

    Contestants must submit their weekly selections before MIDNIGHT ET each Saturday. In the event a contestant wishes to use any game that starts before the MIDNIGHT Saturday deadline their weekly selections must be submitted prior to the start of those games. Contestants who fail to submit their weekly selection by MIDNIGHT ET every Saturday will be awarded zero (0) points that week. THIS TIME DEADLINE IS STRICTLY ENFORCED.

    Once entered contestants will be given a gmail email address to submit their entries to. The timestamp gmail shows as the received time will be considered the official entry submission time. No exceptions for any reason.

    Weekly selection sheets will be made available at approximately 5:00PM each Wednesday by Westgate Las Vegas. Contestant weekly selections will be posted each Sunday morning. Current standings will be posted each Tuesday afternoon.

    Weekly selections can only be submitted once per contest entry. First submission counts.

    For contest purposes, all games are action despite a location change. In the event of a game cancellation or postponement, the game must be played by Tuesday of the following week to be applied toward contest standings or contestant will be awarded zero points for that game.

    Must be an SBR Pro member on 1st January 2020 to be prize eligible.

          Unfortunately the 18000 covers the football league that I’m the commish of.

          If they were all mine, I’d certainly donate.

                Optional,

                Points are for losers. If you asked for real money, I would have opted in. Lets say we have 40 contestants ( $500*40), that would be good pool.

                Cheers!

                  Contests for cash between posters is a big no-no. Opti is a Mod but we all have to still follow the rules.

                                  Thanks convick, you’re 100% correct. SBR and it’s staff will never facilitate the exchange of cash on the forum or via private message and those who attempt to violate that are subject to a permanent ban. If anyone needs further clarification please see the FAQs that are at the bottom of every forum page

                                      Do you want a betpoints loan to get in on this Rudy?

                                      Will give me a better shot to avoid last.

                                          The rules differ there as there is no Betpoints system
