Drunkard Posted October 11, 2016 Report Posted October 11, 2016 I'm in again this year as well. Quote
ubkev Posted October 11, 2016 Report Posted October 11, 2016 Everyone must bet once per week. That means we all need a bet on the opener, alright kids? Don't forget to bet on Thursday! There, I've reminded everyone. Quote
ubkev Posted October 11, 2016 Report Posted October 11, 2016 Lines aren't up for the first game yet. I'm gonna say without Risto the Sabres will be about +130 and with Risto they are going to be about +110. Just a guess, of course. Quote
Samson's Flow Posted October 11, 2016 Report Posted October 11, 2016 Everyone must bet once per week. That means we all need a bet on the opener, alright kids? Don't forget to bet on Thursday! There, I've reminded everyone. I thought the rule was bet once per month? I'd prefer to see them play a few games before I start betting the rent money here. :) Quote

MattPie Posted October 11, 2016 Report Posted October 11, 2016 I'm in. This'll be a fun distraction until I go broke in early December. Quote
Eleven Posted October 11, 2016 Report Posted October 11, 2016 I thought the rule was bet once per month? I'd prefer to see them play a few games before I start betting the rent money here. :) It was, last time. Hank, I don't mind playing once a week, but this week, it forces everyone to bet on Game 1. Would you consider either (1) once a month or (2) starting the requirement next week? Quote
Hank Posted October 11, 2016 Author Report Posted October 11, 2016 It was, last time. Hank, I don't mind playing once a week, but this week, it forces everyone to bet on Game 1. Would you consider either (1) once a month or (2) starting the requirement next week? I think 2 is reasonable, first bet must be made be Oct 23rd, thank you for mentioning it. I don't think a weekly requirement is unreasonable though, I prefer that to a monthly requirement. Quote

I was really hoping to get a feel for the team and forcing a bet week one seemed a bit much. Quote

Eleven Posted October 12, 2016 Report Posted October 12, 2016 (edited) I have no idea how this works or what is going on. In. Well, first, you mail your initial $2000 investment to me so I can include you in. Hank runs the contest but I hold the cash. I also take S&H Green Stamps and six Dairy Queen coupons are good for $10. Address is 1185 Avenue of the Americas, 15th Floor, Manhattan, NY 10036. Edited October 12, 2016 by Eleven Quote

Neo Posted October 12, 2016 Report Posted October 12, 2016 One unit on Les Habitants spoiling our opener. I'm dipping a toe in, here. I'll assume we post bets here and Hank keeps track and provides periodic updates. NeoPhyte Quote
Claude_Verret Posted October 12, 2016 Report Posted October 12, 2016 Hank, Will you be posting the lines the day of the game? Quote
sabills Posted October 12, 2016 Report Posted October 12, 2016 I'll take two on the Habs, and gladly be wrong about it. Quote

I think we need to wait until either Hank posts the lines or we agree when the lines are final from the site, otherwise we could all be wagering differing "units" as the lines move. Quote

Correct - Hank will post the line and then that is the "final" line. Any movement thereafter on the Vegas line doesn't matter. I suppose folks can bet now not knowing the line, but seems a little silly. You all should just wait for the line to be posted. :) Quote
