LeRoy's "Money Talks" Handicapping Tournament
Contest Format: 32 handicappers shall participate in this 15 week Tournament, fashioned along the lines of the Stardust Invitational which ran for 11 years. However, unlike the Stardust Tournament, each of the 16 participants in the Money Talks contest has put up $ 5,000.oo for a total of $ 160,000.oo in the "winner-take-all" prize pool. For the first 8 weeks of the Contest there will be two head-to-head matchups to reduce the field to 8 remaining contestants. Each handicapper will make 7 selections against the LeRoy's pointspread that exists shortly before air time. Unlike last season when the 7 selections were weighted 1 through 7, this season all selections will be of equal weight with one Best Bet to serve as a tie breaker. The winner will be the contestant with the better winning percentage for the week. The contest will be held Friday afternoons and evenings in both Las Vegas and Reno between 2 and 3 PM and 7 and 9 PM with both programs broadcast over local radio in both Las Vegas and Reno. The public is welcome -- and encouraged -- to attent. The contest airs over Las Vegas radio station KBAD (AM 920) at 7:00 PM and is also expected to be available for broadcast live on the Internet at www.americanwagering.com -- just click on the Leroys link and follow other links to reach the broadcast). The two contestants who win their first 4 matches will meet in the Finals to be held on Friday, December 30, 2007 to play for the winner-take-all purse of $ 160,000.
