Is the lock down/pick and pray format the solution to alleviate the Hail Mary finishes? Or how about the first half of the slate a post time decision with a lock down for the second half?

I believe one of the Vegas big $ tourneys had a side category for consistancy, where winners were rewarded for their consistant good handicappig throughout the tourney. I have both won a couple and lost a bunch with stabbers hitting . Maybe some sort off formula can be made in the contest to build in a reward for consistant play to overcome the problem. I dislike the Pick /Pray /lockdown contests as i think you are predicting instead of live valuation of races. only good for those at work who cannot play live.IMO.
