You might want to round your numbers to multiples of 100's, otherwise I think all of your bets are going to be D'Qd. According to the rules all bets have to be in multiples of 100s, therefore your post here doesn't include any bets. Although if you aren't betting perhaps you could win by standing pat, so you have that chance if you don't see this message in time.

Wow we posted at the same time LOL. But how can you adjust somebody's bets, shouldn't the onus be on the player to list their bets? Cause now he can play it both ways, if his bets dont come in he can claim he didnt make any bets and wants to stand pat as a backup plan.

I've been lenient in the past, as well. Regarding editing, etc. Also, I usually point out illegal bets with more time to spare.

If he tries to play it that way (1) he won't be eligible for the grand prize (flex) and (2) we will all laugh at him, since we know that wasn't his intent.

Well it seems like it could be his intent because why would he take 25 dollars off a couple of them and put them on another to be goofy? Seems to me like he is trying to stand pat, with a chance of getting credited for a win if you allow him to do so in his post. It doesn't seem to me like his bets are illegal, I would say that they aren't bets, a bet isn't a bet until it is accepted as a bet, and I don't see how you can accept them as bets since the definition of bets was spelled out in the master rules in the OP?

Honestly the biggest flaw of the bets were the ANY OTHER player bets. If you look at the total number of TDs of all players included, some of offense as well as defense, the odds of 15/1 were favorably high, they should have been reduced. I would have put all my money on those 2 options evenly if I could, but I was already committed to HHW when I took the 5/2 odds on the championship win in the previous round. Also the QB to score first was too low it should have been a lot more than 15/1.

I agree that it turned out the 'Any Other' bets were pretty high. I thought that the odds that a RB or top WR would score the touchdown were pretty high. Then considering that I split the 'Any other player' line up by team, that further reduced the odds. By taking both, you basically had to take about 7.5/1 on 'any other player'. Eh, I still feel it was the right line, with the large percentage of TDs scored by the RBs. It ended up burning me, obviously, but that is how it works.

Yes, the QB odds were high, but you could basically just throw that line out.
