Mock Gambling - WILDCARD WEEKEND - Thoey takes a MASSIVE lead into the Playoffs

[JackieSlater]

Mock Gambling Wild Card Weekend

PLEASE COULD A MOD MAKE THIS THREAD STICKY...Thanks

In another whacky turn for the competition, the Rams late TD cost many guys a lot of $$$$ with the exception of Thoey, who gambled his all on a Rams win and doubled his money to almost $12m. With the chasing pack falling at the roadside, Thoey takes a massive $8.5m lead into the last stretch of the competition

For those of you unfamiliar to the competition at this stage, the competition plays on straight through until the Superbowl (Inclusive of the Pro Bowl) – I’ll pick a key game throughout the playoffs each weekend and set questions pertaining to that game (Just as if it was a Rams game throughout the regular season). The questions maybe slightly different to the usual fair i offer so read them carefully and act upon them as you read them

Best of luck to everyone in these final stages of this year’s competition

Rams lost the game 34 - 27 , thus WINNING on the spread – 3/18 called the Rams
Rams scored 27pts in the game – the 26+ pts spread wins – NO ONE called that spread
Whiners scored 4 TD’s in the game – NO ONE called that number
Steven Jackson rushed for more yards than Gore – 10/18 called Jackson
Kellen Clemens with the games 1st TD – NO ONE called Clemens
Rams TD was the games 1st scoring play – Rambunctious, the only guy to call that.
61pts scored in the game, the 45+pts spread wins – Rambunctious, the only guy to call that.
34 - 27, Whiners, NO ONE called that scoreline
Broncos/Chargers/Giants – 5/16 called all 3 correctly
Ray Rice Rushing with 191yds – NO ONE called Rice
Calvin Johnson Receiving with 244yds – 4 guys called Johnson
