    5Dimes $1850 MLB POD Contest Rules and Info

    There are a few simple rules to this contest.

    1. This contest is free however you are required to <a href="http://www.5dimes.com/index.asp?AffId=5D1792429">sign up for an account through this link</a> or already have an account at <a href="http://www.5dimes.com/index.asp?AffId=5D1792429">5Dimes</a>. You will need to email your forum username and 5dimes account number to predictem@hotmail.com to be eligible to win prizes. This needs to be done asap otherwise we're sorry but you won't be eligible to win a prize.

    2. Each day we'll post the contest odds. This will usually be a post made by MEESTERMIKE. Lines will be made available on a daily basis by 9 AM EDT for day games and no later than 3 PM EDT for evening games. If a line for a particular game is unavailable by these stated times, the game will be considered a no play and off the board. <b>You need to select one play per day</b>

    ***PLEASE*** use only the daily posted ML (Money lines), RL (Run Lines) & GT (Game Totals) as your entry into the daily MLB-POD competition.

    We ask only that you participate with a minimum of 20 plays per month in order to qualify for a winner's prize.

    The winner(s) is/are/will be the person(s) with the most units gained at the end of the applicable segment, not the best winning percentage. This will allow people sufficient times, especially during the summer holiday season for anyone to miss playing some games, and still stay in the hunt for the Predictem Holy Grail.

    Each and every MLB-POD play's weight will be = to 1 (one) unit only.

    If your play is postponed by MLB, you may choose one (1) different game to play. You must only choose one (1) play and you must submit the new play prior to the posted start time for your new play.

    Grading of plays will take place as follows:
    A play on a +125 dog = +1.25 units if your play wins; -1.00 unit if your play loses
    A play on a -125 fav = +1.00 unit if your play wins; -1.25 units if your play loses
    A play on a -1 1/2 +165 RL fav = +1.65 units if your play wins; -1.00 unit if your play loses
    A play on a +1 1/2 -165 RL dog = +1.00 unit if your play wins; -1.65 units if your play loses
    A play on a -110 Game Total = +1.00 unit if your play wins; -1.10 units if your play loses

    Again I repeat, the winner(s) is/are/will be the person(s) with the most units gained at the end of the applicable segment, not the best winning percentage.

    <b>Prizes:</b>

    <b>$100 betting account</b> to the contestant with the most units at months end. (April-September)

    <b>$250 betting account</b> to the 1st half winner (Winner deemed at All-Star Break)

    <b>$1000 in sports betting accounts</b> for season prizes which include:
    1st: $500
    2nd: $250
    3rd: $125
    4th: $75
    5th: $50

    One entry per household.

    Monthly winners are limited to one prize per person/household.

    Prizes must be rolled over 6x and no w/d for 30 days.

    Reminder: You must sign up for an account (no deposit necessary) <a href="http://www.5dimes.com/index.asp?AffId=5D1792429">through this link</a> and let us know your forum username, 5dimes account number and if your acct is new or existing to PREDICTEM@HOTMAIL.COM

            Each play is to win the # of units posted unless it's a dog then I'm betting that amount.
