Okay boys, most of you know the rules but I'm going to lay them out again. Trying to keep this as simple as possible.

You are allowed to make up to five selections each day.

These wagers are limited to:
Side, (for entire game)
Side -.5 or +.5 (for regulation only)
Puck Line
Total (for entire game)

All lines must be used from pinnaclesports.com. All your selections for one day must be made in one post and time stamped no later than 5 minutes prior to the start of the earliest game on your card. If it is posted after this cut off time that game(s) will not count.

You must list your games and include the team, spread, and/or current odds at the time of your post.
For example
Pittsburgh/Anaheim OVER 5.5 -101
Montreal +109
Florida -1.5 +227
Boston -.5 +123
Colorado +183

This tells me you are wagering on a total, side bet on Montreal as a dog, Florida on the puck line, Boston in regulation, and another side for the entire game. If the prices on any of these games do not correspond with what the current odds are at pinnacle at the time of your post the following will result.
A loss if your selection wins or no play if it wins.

Please be very careful of this. Last year on the final day of the contest Bushay went 5-0 and should have finished second guaranteeing him of cashing. Instead one play had the wrong odds, (by accident), and he finished less than one unit behind TryTryTry and out of the money.

The minimum number of plays needed to qualify in this year's contest is 100. There is no maximum.

For you guys who haven't played this yet here is a link to one weeks selections from last season just so you can get an idea of what I need to keep score. http://www.therxforum.com/showthread.php?t=888146


So far we have 8 paid. Hopefully WannabeWhale will participate. We will pay the top two spots, (65%/35%), no matter if 8 play or 9.

Sorry this my first time in the contest and I want to be sure I'm doing this right. Do I need to list the date for the plays? also just want to make sure this is the correct way to post? last thing I want is to miss out on a winning wager. Also are we allowed TIES and alternate spreads?

Adam, yes it helps to list the day.

Also note it is acceptable to play the same Side in regtime and against puckline - creating a. eritable "double play"

Maximum FIVE selections for any one schedule day.

Some of us enjoy "getting ahead of schedule" by posting next day selextions using prices available at Pinnacle the evebing becore

you dont need to designate "regtime" as long asyou clearly type either 0.5 or 1.5

Pretty much what bman said. Starting it off with the day helps alleviate confusion and assists in my record keeping. If you take a side in regulation just include the -.5 or +.5 with the current odds. If it's for the entire game just include the odds and of cougar course if you are taking the pick line show the -1.5 or +1.5 with the current odds.

We do not use either the "draw" or alternate line pricing in this contest though both are offered at Pinny

TripleTry - Yes to your question. Vic wrote "one post per day" which should be clarified to read " one post per Nhl schedule day".

As I wrote in earlier post, you can make "two posts per day" but each would correspnd with a separate Nhl schedule day.

For example I make a post on Saturday for Saturday games and then later on Satursay I make a ppst for Sunday games using overnight pricing
