lolololol!! Pucky is being a stinker today.
 
For the sake of a good contest, I would say that caps are needed. That is what experience dictates. I (and many others) did not like it when SBR contests were allowing the lop-sided moneylines - and that's why they cut them out for the most part. It turns it into more of a math thing and less of a capping thing. If it comes down to your last pick and you need a unit, you might as well just grab the biggest favorite you can find. No sense thinking about an NBA total when Russia is a -500 fave against Switzerland or something.
 
Ask Immortality how betting on huge moneyline UFC favorites worked out for him this weekend.

I don't care either way though. Will go with majority.
 
I am okay either way. I have the tuna in my sights and nothing will stand in my way.

I vote no to Olympic hockey - or at least yes to some kind of cap - but I do not anticipate freaking out if it is used.

Bread,

Can you please make a ruling on this so I can determine whether or not I can continue?

Your Pal,

You have refered to two big upsets in 30 years to make your point that upsets happen ALL the time. We definitely need a Cap on this.

LOL

No Cap!!!

I'm too tired to provide a list of upsets, but look at the Leafs vs Sens from Sat night.
 
Put a cap on it. If we are allowed to play -600 hockey moneyline favorites than everyone is just going to play those and it becomes stupid. Make a -250 cap and for the Double bet, it must be a -110 play.

Don't think you are going to find any -110 plays on the olympics.

He is saying that you must use your double bet on a -110 game like a baseketball spread or total.
