Each player may use standard money lines, run lines or totals for the contest. You may not use reverse or alternative lines or any other type of virtual wager. All odds will be taken from Bet Jamaica at the time of your actual post. Each player scores their own picks in the thread prior to making an additional pick.

You can pick the same team as someone else. It does not matter, you choose your team!

Each contest player can play a maximum of two plays (per team) on any day. In the event of a doubleheader, each entry can play two plays on each game. You can pick the standard ML, run line or over/under. Each contest player will play a minimum of 120 games over the duration of the contest. The maximum allowed games for the contest will be 324 games (162x2). No alternative odds allowed.

Pitching Change - All posted picks are going to be considered "listed pitchers" unless you state action. This is different from previous years. If there is a pitching change, the pick is void unless you posted "action" for the game

Each pick is one unit. If you play a favorite of -170 and it loses you will lose 170. If you play an underdog of +125 and it wins you win +125.

*** new this year *** One per week (Mon-Sunday week) you may post one 3 unit best bet. This is optional and you must claearly mark (3 unit best bet) next to the pick. This should help people who may fall behind early. ***

Once a pick is entered it is final. You may not cancel the play or change the wager because of a line change or any other reason other than a pitching change that has been announced. If there is a pitching change and you did not list action, you may update the pick based on the new information. This does not apply to hitters, etc out of lineup. This is only for pitching change.

The official contest posting thread is for contest picks only. All other posted picks should go in the regular forums.

Each entry will post official picks similar to this;
a. date of game
b. your pick (be clear) with accurate, current line
c. your record, w/l & units

All picks must be posted prior to the start of the game

All ML picks must be considered final by Bet Jamaica to be considered final in this contest.

All RL picks must be considered final by Bet Jamaica to be considered final in this contest.

All totals must be considered final by Bet Jamaica to be considered final in this contest.

All rainout games - Bet jamaica rules

Any suspended games - Bet Jamaica rules

You must be clear when posting picks on teams who are playing doubleheaders. You must specify game 1 or game 2 when posting your picks. In the event of doubleheaders – the minimum rule of 2 per day will be doubled to 4 per day.

Your thread must be crystal clear when making your picks. All viewers should be able to read through your thread and understand clearly which games were played and which ones were not.

During the last 3 weeks of the season, you may not sit on a lead without playing. A minimum of 15 plays during this time will be required.

Make sure your thread is very clear with all games updated clearly so everyone can see the score without dispute. Remember you are scoring your own contest. You are expected to grade your plays with YTD score after every game you play. There will be a standings thread where you are asked to update on every week (Monday's if possible)

Any entry to dispute a line someone is posting, record of another player, or another concern should post this in the official Dispute/Concerns thread.
