3 Posters still alive in RIO'S NFL TEASER CONTEST

bucsfan67 · Jan 17, 2005

congratulations to the 3 posters who have survived the Minnesota upset of Green Bay, the high scoring colts/denver game, the Atlanta rout of Stl Louis, and the low scoring Indy/NE game

Xpanda
Tang
Big Tex

Are all still alive, and going for the 3000.00 prize offered from Rio...

I did notice in another thread posters calling this a LMS contest, wanting to know if they win if the others are eliminated.....

THIS IS NOT A LMS CONTEST....

Rio stated that any players that could predict EVERY GAME, including the SUPERBOWL, in this teaser format, would win 3000.00 (share if there were more)

So therefore, these posters will have to correctly pick 3 more games to win.....

If no one makes it all the way, then there is no winner....Thats why I think the prize was so generous, cuz its an all or nothing proposition..

However these guys have survied 8 games so far, only 3 more to go..

Good Luck Guys...

And as always, thanks to Rio/Skybook for their generosity....

Bucsfan,

I think you were referring to me when you mentioned that someone had referred to this as a Last Man Standing contest. Let me just say i am not good at these contests, i just don't spend alot of time handicapping them so i am pulling for Tang so he can split it with his Father as he posted.

Rio Shill's contest thread is titled "RIO/SKYBOOK announces3K 16.5 POINT Last Man Standing Super Bowl contest", That is why i referred to it as a LMS contest and every LMS contest that i have ever seen has had at least one winner in it , if not more. I think they expected many winners and would split the 3K, but the contest would stop with the Super Bowl.

Perhaps you should check with Rio/Skybook to clarify it all.
Thanks for all your hard work Bucsfan!

I realize he put last man standing in the title, but by that they meant the last one that could make it all the way through....

here are the rules for the contest....as stated by Rio...

That's right, everyone is eligible for this awesome FREE contest. The rules are simple. All you have to do is correctly tease every playoff game including side and total all the way to and including the super bowl, and you win 3k in match play $$$!!! There is no rollover requirement. You simply win the match play, and you can take out a withdrawl. You can also break up the amount of the plays in the event that you win the prize. In other words, if you win the jackpot, you are not required to play the whole amount on one game. Please note that multiple entries from the same IP will be void, and that all plays for a given week must be in prior to the 1st playoff game that weekend.
You must tease every single game and total, and you can move the game 16.5 points in either direction.

In order to win the jackpot, you must hit every side and total throughout the playoffs and including the super bowl

I think the last 2 lines clear it up....

Dont think they were just giving 3000.00 away for nothing, there had to be a challenge to it....

Kinda like the monday night contest, it wasnt the closest to the props win, it was if YOU HIT THEM ALL..

I have faith at least one of you will make it through though....Only 3 games to go..

Best of luck to all 3

Jj I Would Love To Win Thanks All For The Support I Even Have Bigtex Cheering For Me. Bigtex I Think You Want To Split It With Me Though.

I Would Love To See Lines Up On This For Real Or A Joke. Who Knows Maybe Rio/skybook Can Post Them.

Here Are My Lines With Partial Bias

Will There Be A Winner Yes -500 No +400

Will Ther Be Multiple Winners Yes -150 No +134

Player Matchup Tang -300 Vs The Field +250

Remember I Said I Would Win This From The Beginning My Father Will Be Thrilled To Split It. Hopefully We Turn It Into Something Big.

I Also Wish Good Luck To Xpanda And Bigtex

Two out of three remaining are Canadian. Kinda funny. Too bad the exchange is so low.

TANG · Jan 17, 2005

This Forum Should Take Note The Rio Contest Champion Maybe North Of The Border.

TANG · Jan 17, 2005
