Our Trading Deadline Betting Game 

Post#1 » by freeman » Tue Feb 17, 2009 10:45 am

My basketball buddies and I do this thing almost annually, usually on the week of the trading deadline. It's the first time i'm gonna post this mainly for comments on who's trade prediction got the highest possiblility. Our pot money this year is equivalent to almost $200, our highest pot money ever, with each one putting in about $30+.
There is a breakdown on how the prizes will be divided, it's just quite long and in table format so i'm not gonna jot it here. bottom line is the closest to the actual trade in terms of teams and players involved gets the majority of the prize, the farthest from the actual will get lesser money but not totally $0. So if you got everything right, then everything's yours, tax free. lol.
Here's the main rule: One entry per person. Each participant should have different teams and players on their entries. The order of submission is drawn like the draft, and you cannot select the teams that the previous participant had selected.
