For the first round, we are going to stay with the rules that were in place for the regular season. The only modifications is that the Pick 6 will become a Pick 5 (4 playoff games + Tournament championship). Should make things a little easier, huh? You can still stay with a Pick 3 to lock in some points. Time for caution or time to go for it? Make sure to note if you are using the Tournament game as one of your picks so that pick isn't confused with the playoff game picks.
The Rules:
- Each week you pick three teams that you think will win their game (straight up, no point spreads).
- You get the points assigned for each winner you pick. No penalty for picking a loser in your three picks, just no points from that team.
- Playmaker rule: they must be picks from 3 different games or no points will be awarded
- Bonus play - You can instead pick winners for all 5 games if you would like. So, more points to be had, but if you miss any winner you get 0 points for the week.
- Bonus play - Include the correct pick for the Game of the Week in your picks (either Pick 3 or Pick 5) and double your points for the week!
- Comets/Odyssey Rule: If a game ends in a tie, no points are awarded for that game and if it is the GOW, no doubling of points. Pick 6 bets will pay out if the other picks are all correct.
So, if you want to go for the Pick 5, make sure you get your picks in before the Tournament game Monday night, the other playoff games are Tuesday night.
