BettorsTalk Hilton Team Week #17 Picks

[Xero]

I doubt that as checks will be probably mailed out.

I have us in 4th place

If Philly would have covered we would have had 3rd place.

Are we going to get checks straight from Hilton?
I say if there is a check from Hilton cut then each of us get a photocopy of the check, just to prove to my friends that we really won this thing and a momento to frame!

But, the Hilton might save us some money, if they do this...
We should see if we can get our prize money divided 5 ways straight from the Hilton to each one of us.
This way we all could have a chance to save some money as we won't have to claim winnings of 5 digits with the tax man.
If I remember as long as daily winnings are less than $10,000 then the tax man isn't notified and that alone will save us some change.

We need to find out about this guys.

If we in-fact tied for 3rd/4th, each team will win $49,237.50.
That's $9,847.50 for each of us!! THAT would be nice!
I hope that's how this whole thing turns out!!

If we happen to tie for 4th/5th, each team will win $32,193.50.
That's $6,438.50 for each of us!! THAT'S a HUGE difference!
But I can still handle winning 21X my investment!!

Yep...that late Washington TD by fumble return reallt cost us!
Tampa Bay also had the same late fumble return for TD that also cost us!
We should have easily had 3rd all by ourselves!!

GREAT year guys!!

Also, how are they gonna handle payment to each team? Will Monte get the
whole prize, then send out each of our checks, or will we need to provide
all 5 names and addresses to Hilton, and they'll send out 5 separate checks?

calm down guys as the details will be coming shortly as I talk to my friend in Vegas who put the plays in.

If we get a lump sum check from Hilton please get me a photocopy of it as a momento before breaking it into seperate checks.
That would be cool conversation piece!! Thanks!

[slappy's son]

Well.....it looks as if the Hilton Contest has posted the final standings!
Appears we tied for 3rd Place!

That should be $9,847.50 for each of us! Way to go guys!!

PS...the team we tied with had a late fumble return for TD by Washington
plus a late fumble return for TD by Tampa Bay to get their 1.5 points!
We should have easily had 3rd all by ourselves and the $12,000!!

But I'll take it!! Maybe next year we win it all!! LOL!!

Question to Monte....

Just wondering if you heard any news from the Hilton
concerning the final "official" results of the Hilton Contest,
prize money for each place, expected pay-out date, etc, etc.

Thanks!

[slappy's son]

Any heard from Hilton???

Just wondering if anyone has heard any news from the Hilton concerning the
final "official" results of the Hilton Contest?? Contest has been over for 10 days,
and I haven't heard squat about the final standings, prize money for each place,
expected pay-out date, etc, etc.

Any news would be appreciated! Thanks!

We should be getting our checks today as our guy went to the Hilton and picked it up last Thursday.

[slappy's son]

WOW! Why haven't we heard anything??

Monte - do you have an update for us?? Have our checks been sent out??

Wayne - What place did you "officially" come in? what was your prize money?

Congrats on your cash??

Something like tied for 17th. We got $5,050 ($1,000 each). We thought we had a little more but the standings on Jim Feist were not correct and the Hilton's were a little different (screwing us of course)!

[slappy's son]

Yes Wayne, I know! Fiest had you at #16, and you actually #17!
There was supposedly a team in 3rd Place not shown on Fiest (56 pts I think).
That would put us in a tie for 4th place, costing us about $3,500 each!!
(had we tied for 3rd as shown on Fiest).

I'm just surprised we haven't heard anything yet.

[wayne1218]

We thought we had $7,500 not $5,000

That extra spot they bumped us back cost each of us $500

[slappy's son]

Hilton checks are being mailed!!

I just spoke with another team who has money coming, and he got
a fax of his check from his teammate! He told me our money is there and
ready to get!! I hope our checks are on their way! they should be!

Monte.... where do things stand with getting our checks? Can you check?

Thanks!
