I have thrown the idea with Skybook about posting odds to win contest for each contestant as well as having heads up wagering between contestants for others to wager on over at Skybook. I personally think this is a great idea that would allow others who are not in contest as well as those in the contest to wager on participants here at the RX. I wanted to get some feedback to take back to Skybook to see if there is some interest. This would be a plus for them as people who wanted to wager on this contest could only do it at Skybook and as a result would bring them in some new customers. Since the Rio/Skybook family has done such a great job sponsering contests, this would be a good way for us to bring them some business. Any thoughts or opinions?

fishhead,

I know that one other individual had mentioned it to Skybook, did not know it was J-man, and I was asked to get feedback and to contact individual for approval. Sorry as I was not on yesterday if it was discussed.

Just making clear that I was not dishing your efforts in anyway, as it sort of sounded that way in my original post in this thread.

It would be great if SKYBOOK, through the efforts of both you and Jman could arrange this, as I think you are right in that it would draw interest.

It would definately be fun, but would they being willing to do the work necessary for something that may just draw a small bit of action? I doubt there would be many re-loads or new players as a result of something like this being offered, so the prospects of new business could be minimal. A cool idea, but just question whether it could come off.

Tang, I believe it will be one player vs one player not multiple match-ups...keep in mind their is a bit of work that will need to go into this and its not the focal point of the contest, plus we're pressed for time with the season about to start...
