The Final Regular Season Bet

[Fishercat]

OK, I promised a big bet for the end of the season, and I think this will deliver.

It's called MLB Blackjack, and this is how it works.

I will list numbers from 11 to 21. You bet on ONE of those numbers (all will be at miniscule odds). It can be 11, it can be 21, it can be 16, whatever. You POST and pick anywhere from 2 to 5 teams as well. You want the total runs of the teams you picked to equal the number you picked. However, you will still win something if

A. The runs of the teams you picked are within 5 of the number you picked
and
B. The number of runs scored is higher than 10 and lower than 22.

For instance, you bet on the number 18, and you pick BOS, CLE, and COL
Those three teams score 18 runs: you win x:1 odds. If they score 16 runs, you still win but win less, if they score 13 runs, you win back the least amount.

If you don't make the playoffs (remember, Top 12 after the check in concludes), then you're out.

[BuckFoston]

Oh man I was so close! I got one off, oh well I'll still get some good money.

OK, this one is manually settled. Suffice to say, Dry and Buck had a good day
