But it doesn't change the fact that you talked a lot of smack to some guy that was just excited about posting picks.

Either you would like to play or not?

I'll send all of any money at risk to Steve long before we start.

Do you wish to play?

I'm sure Steve won't want to be in the middle of this.

With the private tourneys on Horsetourneys no one has to send any money to anyone. You can go through them.

I'm sure you're correct on both counts.

My dealings with him have nothing to do with you but since you feel the need to get involved I'm in.

After Super Bowl since we both are prepping for NHC.

10 $1000 Pick and Pray Head to Head private tourneys on Horse Tourney's. We will play Pick and Pray on whatever their main slate is on Saturdays
starting Feb 19 for 10 weeks. If any of us miss a week it is a loss for the week that is missed.

That sounds good. Except for the part about losing if a week is missed. Things come up, especially in these trying times, that could impact either one of our abilities to play.

Best of luck in the NHC.

No disrespect but I want to protect myself from someone getting an early lead and deciding not to play. It would be something I would ask of anyone. You have a counter to this I'm open.

Isn't the plan to play 10 head to head matches for $1000 each? With due respect they seem to be stand alone encounters.

What if a person lost all of the first five? I wouldn't blame anyone for searching for greener pastures.

I suppose if you wanted to base it strictly on the cumulative results perhaps, we could each put $10,000 in some sort of escrow controlled by a third party.

Question I’ve been looking for the button to set up private tourney but can’t find it. Is it there yet?

They are stand alone and by playing all 10 it eliminates some of the variance. I am trying to eliminate a situation where the person I was playing wins first 2 then quits. Additionally I have no intention of not honoring my word and playing entire 10 even if I get pounded 10 times in a row. Won't change my life one wy or another.

If you want to play for $1000 a day/week forever I'm fine with that.

I can use the extra money.

What's not going to happen is me agreeing to lose $1000 on a day that I cannot play.
