All,

Here are the lines for this weekends games. Remember, even if the lines change from now until the start of a game, we keep these lines that are posted. You may start to send me wagers for this week as soon as you like via email, text, or call. Text is the easiest for me, but I can work with email just fine. Call if you absolutely must because sometimes I may not be able to write things down or may be in class. You must have at least 1 straight wager on each of the four games and for anyone that may have thought otherwise, a straight wager can be the spread OR the over/under. Again, you have up until 10 minutes before the start of a specific game to change or add any wagers. With that being said, all teasers and parlays are open in a sense that you can change which bets make them up, but once the first game of a teaser or parlay start you can not change the wager amount or the number of teams… at that point, you can only change the remaining bets. For example, if I have NE, SEA, and GB in a parlay for 50. You have until 10 minutes before the GB game to change the wager amount, the number of teams, any bets involved, or cancel the bet. However, once the GB game locks, the number of teams (3 in this case) and the wager (50) lock. If it were a teaser, those two things and the plus amount (6, 6.5, or 7) would also lock. BUT.. say GB covers and my bet is still alive Sunday morning, but I am having second thoughts about SEA… I have until 12:50 to change my SEA bet to anything else that has yet to happen. If I change it in time, all is good. Once it locks, I would have until 4:20 to make any changes to the NE bet. Anyways… here are the lines….

Thanks and Good Luck,

After the first round of games here are the current standings. I also included the number of each type of bet so you can compare how everyone is doing and see where you stand as for as minimum Parlays and Teasers are concerned. A few people had some pretty nice wins over the weekend but Akoz had the biggest win with 300 on a 2 team teaser which returned him 230.77. Also, Nate and Sean had straight bets that netted them 200 and 150, respectively. Bambi putting 625 on the Colts +7 ended up being a huge mistake. He needed Washington to cover to even still be in it, but now since he doesn’t have 100 credits to make 4 straight bets this week he is officially eliminated (the only one). Anyways… here is the standings and be ready for the lines to the games on Thursday. I have all of the wagers saved, but if you think I made a mistake please let me know ASAP.

****FIX*****
It was brought to my attention and I went back and checked… but Tuschak had a 3 team parlay which included SEA -2.5 and not WASH +2.5. This changed from a Loss of 75 to a win of 450, which was the largest of the week. All the fixes have been made on the wagers and standings tables.

NOTE: These Standings updated with the second round!

Anyways, here is what I have as of 1:00 PM on Sunday January 6, 2013. There is still plenty of time to get wagers in for those who are still on the edge.

Wagers made by everyone for the first weekend of games.

Thanks and Good Luck,
Staudt

For anyone that is still following along and is going to play here is the first week of lines and the futures lines in which you need to make a decision one. Also, I will be making one rule change from yesterdays post. So, what you need to do from now until the games begin on Saturday is text, call, or email me with you picks. Remember you need to have at least one Straight Wager for each game, 3 Parlays (which do not need to be this week), 1 Teaser (which also does not need to be this week), and 1 Futures Bet (which needs to be before the first game).

---

Rule Change
The only rule change I have decided to make is the eliminate the Max Bet setting for each round. In thinking it over, I initially wanted to eliminate someone betting the house on one game and taking a huge lead, but I think that will take away from some of the fun. Some people may take the small amounts route while other may want to take the boom or bust approach. Either way, KEEP IN MIND, there is still a minimum of 25 credits per bet and you MUST reach your minimum of 11 Straight Wagers (one per game), 3 Parlays, 1 Teaser, and the 25 credit futures. So, if you go and bet 500 on something in Round 1 and lose you might not have the funds in the end to reach your minimum bets.

---

Round 1 Game Lines


Here are the lines for the first round games. They will stay these lines, taken from Sportsbook, even if the lines change from now until kickoff. As long as everyone has the same lines to play with… it is fair. I need at least one straight wager from each game for this week. If you choose to go the teaser route you can choose from 6, 6.5, or 7 to add to the lines above. For example, Say you choose 6.5 for a teaser you would add 6.5 to each teams spread, take away 6.5 from the over, and add 6.5 to the under… (Seahawks would become a +4, Redskins +9, and the over under for that game would be over 39.5 or under 52.5).

Remember, you do not have to stop at 4 bets.

---

Futures Lines

Above are the futures lines for the Super Bowl Winner. Before the start of the first game you need to make a pick on who you think is going to win the Super Bowl. Everyone will use the same 25 Credit amount. So, you can take a risk and go with someone with a huge return or try and get a solid amount of Credits from a favorite. Either way, you will not be able to adjust this bet once the first games start.

For those of you who are unfamiliar, a 25 credit wager on a +300(Patriots) line would return 75 Credits + 25 Initial Credits for a total of 100.
Similarly, if you would choose the +8000 Colts, you would get 2025 Credits.

---

Good Luck
If you decide to play you can start to send me wagers. At this time I am not 100% sure of the amount of people who will be participating because many seem on the edge. Saturday I will have a final answer to that. Again, if you have any questions, suggestions, or concerns please let me know ASAP. My next update will start to include the wagers that are being made so that everyone can track their own and oppositions progress.

Thanks,
Staudt

Hello again fantasy people and welcome to the new guys. Last year I did a little Fantasy Playoff thing much like a regular season Fantasy league in that you picked players, hoped they did good, and hoped they made it to the Super Bowl. Brandon T. took home 1st last year as the only one who took H. Nicks. Anyways, this year I wanted to take a break from the individual player performances and hopefully come up with something most people will enjoy while still having a vested interest in the playoffs since the Steelers are done. So, I saw something similar late in the NFL season, made some adjustments and came up with the following. If you have ever gambled or made bets online before this should come very easy to you… if not, it still shouldn’t be difficult, but I am always here to answer questions.

example: if someone puts a 3 team parlay in
what will be given before: NAME, TYPE, NUMBER OF TEAMS
what will be given after each game locks: BET PLACED (team and spread or over/under)
what will be given once all games involved in the bet lock: VALUE
