💰 SPRTSBK A few updates to make note of: #1: Cash to poor (for those who go "bust" in the season.) Plus, "hidden wagers."

[TerryP]

I mentioned working on this last year. It's in place this season: Cash to Poor.

Quick explanation: If your balance drops below $1000 for your Sportsbook cash, you'll be given what's basically a loan: 50k. It's in place so you can continue playing through the season even if you're really bad at this! It will be "repaid."

#2: I'm adding what I think is another level of difficulty this season.

If you've played the Pick 'em, you know you can't see others choices until the event is locked / settled. I'm applying the same hidden feature to the Sportsbook this season.

You'll be able to see where the money is going, but you won't be able to see who is wagering on what until the event is settled.

NOW, if you want to put on your "thinking hat" there's a "hack" around these being hidden ... I showed you guys how to find it in the URL last year.

@rick4bama come on, now. Does the hidden wager thing bother you?

If you think about it...the fact these games are hidden could just as easily mean there's more discussion on how they're played.

@252BAMA what do you think about hidden wagers? @alabama mike @UAgrad93

Others ...

It was just a joke @TerryP!!

I like to see how other are betting! But, I 'm okay with the new rule! Sorry Terry I was about to post this but something came up at the house here!

Last year I told you guys how to find out how others were betting. It's all in the url

I like this. Forces me to think little harder and do my homework.

@TerryP I have an idea. Will you highlight one game each week where we can double the bet on game you pick up. Either we double our money or we lose it.

That sounds like a fun thread.

I’m good with anything you want to put on, hidden or open.

Good move. Makes it just like a casino sportsbook.

@TerryP @252BAMA someone here got me hooked on Odds Shark. 252BAMA you also show me another one with a betting site. I thought I saved it but can't find it now. It has about 5 site Caesars and MGM were both on this list.

I figured that out.
