Are we doing straight win/loss, or playing with vegas odds/points? [can you tell I don't gamble and have no idea what the actual terms are?]
Straight win/loss, even money.

Too bad it’s not real, eh?
Oh, I thought you were a bookie. ;)

Sure am. Just like I’m a Trekkie, I’m a Bookie. Not because I read, I just like Devin Booker.

Sweet. Many of us need you to be a bookie for us, so your needs are out-weighed. llap

I got locked out of my offshore bookie account, so I appreciate everyone facilitating my fix.

(Shit, missed the first part.)

any point in making the bets privately?
We’re just using spoiler tags and the honor system. No peeking at other bets before making your own.
Should there be a declaration of entry at start of season? Otherwise might get a little unruly in terms of record keeping...
Everybody tracks their own stake. Honor system again.

Eligible games are national TV games (NBATV & LP don’t count) not involving the Suns. See the opening post for a list of eligible games in the preseason.

So... 12/15... Can we bet on more than one game per day? Is it required to bet on all eligible games? Can we skip days?

You can bet one more than one game per day, but the total of your wagers cannot exceed your stake at the start of the day. It is not required to bet on all eligible games, and you can skip days.
