Handicapping Contests: Which one and how to enter?

[jwkniska]

to get into the NTRA/DRF one, you need to qualify to get there. you cannot just buy-into it. Normally, you have to place in the top 3 in another contest or series of contests.

HPWS at Orleans, I think you can buy-in for $1000 if you don't qualify for it thru another contest.

don't know about the laptops out there (I'd assume you can have one with you, in your hotel room, but not in the sportsbook nor any other part of the casino).

I've been trying for the last few years to qualify through the free online qualifiers. Made it to the finals of them a few times and been close, but haven't been top 3 in the final yet. Brisnet runs a couple qualifiers for them online where you have to be top 50 in one of their first round qualifiers to get to the final. Sept 20th is the next one.

First, play in contests thats suit your type of play. I personaly hate the $2 WPS only contests. I like the Lone Star Tournaments cause it covers Tri's, Supers, WPS and EX Box

I came second at the Lone Star Handicaping Qualifiers on April 5th and I will be there on Oct 18th for the Lone Star NTRA Qualifying finals. I hope I can make it in the top 3 so I can go to vegas in JAN
