RULES & OBJECTIVES
RULES & OBJECTIVES
OBJECTIVES
1. To accumulate the highest Bankroll over 30 selectable contest races.
***
RULES
1. In order to participate and have their selections scored, a player must acknowledge that they have read the contest rules and agree to abide by them by voting "Yes" in the poll here.
The poll will only let you vote one time, so if you have any questions, never vote "no", but first seek an improved understanding by sending me a private message or posting your question in this thread. Once you are comfortable with the rules, you can go back and vote "yes" under the poll.
VERY IMPORTANT NOTE: To the right of the poll on the same line as the "Yes" option you will see an underlined number in blue, which serves as a summary. Clicking on that number will show you the names of those who have voted yes. If at the time a day's selections are scored your name is not listed, your selections for that day will not be scored. Only the underlined blue summary will be used to determine player compliance to this rule, so do not post below in this thread to indicate that you have read and agree to abide by the contest rules.
2. This is an individual player event, and each person is limited to a single entry.
3. The Contest consists of 30 player-selectable thoroughbred races running from Saturday, March 9th to Saturday, April 20th, 2013. Selections may be made on any thoroughbred race run in North America with posted entries and results in Equibase (www.equibase.com), with the exception of Los Alamitos and Rillito Park. Within the 30 player-selectable races, a minimum of 8 of those races must come from the 12 available Graded stakes (Kentucky Derby prep) races listed at the bottom of the rules. (The number of manditory and available manditory races is different from last year.).
NOTE: To meet eligibility requirements, participants must play EXACTLY 30 races.
4. Play is allowed any day. (This rule is different from last year.)
5.Players may play a maximum of four individual races on any given day. (This rule is different from last year.).
6. In the event of a cancelled race, a player will receive a refund, and subject race will not count towards the player's total races played. In the event of a scratch, a player will receive a refund for those plays affected. If scratches result in the player having no remaining live tickets, subject race shall not count against the player's total races played. If any live tickets remain, the player will be scored on those wagers, and the race will count against the player's total races played.
7. To place an "official play" and receive credit for the results, the play must be posted at least one minute prior to the "official off time" as stated at Equibase. Players may modify their selections at any time, provided it also meets the one minute before race off time requirement. It is the Player’s responsibility to ensure that their PaceAdvantage time stamp is correct. (Because edits are required, postings are not allowed to contain "alternate" selections.).
If the selection time stamp and the "official off time" are the same or later, the selections will be scored as follows:
-- Any tickets that end up as winners will be considered "no plays", that is, no winnings will be added to the player's bankroll, and refunds will be given.
-- All losing tickets will be scored as losses, and no refunds will be given.
8. Coupled Entries will be handled like they are at the track, and as such, a player accepts action on all horses in that coupling. Should a portion of an entry scratch, the player will still have action on the remaining portion still in the race. A player can not selectively choose one part of an entry to the exclusion of the other(s). Note: Players still have the option to edit their selections should they believe they are stuck with the undesired portion of an entry. (This rule is different from last year.)
9. Bankroll and Wagering Format
-- Players may make Win, Place or Exacta bets, or any combination thereof, using a maximum of 3 distinct betting interests per race.
-- All players start the contest with a $2,000 Bankroll
-- A player can wager a maximum of 10% of their Starting bankroll on any contest day, which can be spread on as many as four different races. Subject daily wagering amounts are to be calculated by rounding down to the nearest $1. Important Note: For clarity purposes, the "Starting Bankroll" is defined as the player's Bankroll in place PRIOR to their first wager for a given contest day.
-- All bets have a minimum base amount $1, and each individual wager total must be at least $2. There is no minimum bet per race other than reaching the $2.00 threshold, however, each player gets only 30 races to grow your bankroll, so consider wisely.
10. Every effort will be made to keep up-to-date standings. That said, a player is ultimately responsible for knowing their bankroll and maximum daily wager amount. Should a player overbet, his/her wagers will be reduced automatically in the usual manner, which is to reduce their last wager base amount by $1, and continue working backwards until all of the day's wagering is in compliance.
11. The contest officially ends with the running of the Lexington at Keeneland on April 21st. Warning: Given that participants must play exactly 30 races in order to qualify for prizes and award points, don't get stuck needing one more race and using one that goes off AFTER the Lexington. It will cause you to not meet eligibility requirements!
12. For registered RDSS users who want to qualify for the $510 RDSS Bonus Cash Prize, they must be paid-up RDSS subscribers as of April 1, 2013.
13.The moderators or their designate will have the final say on any scoring matters. This contest is intended to be played in good faith and in the "spirit of the game"!
14. Contest Stakes Events (8 of 12 races are mandatory plays):
March 09 -- Tampa Bay Downs, "Tampa Bay Derby", 8.5f
