FAQs
Read this firstSimply put, it’s a first-of-its-kind sports betting battle royale — creators, sharps, and the public all competing on the same sharp lines, under the same House Rules, to prove who’s truly the sharpest bettor throughout the Australian Open.
Built on SharpCircle, every pick is independently tracked, graded, and verified — so the leaderboard tells the real story (as it should).
Rules
House RulesWhat are the House Rules?
- The House Rules are designed to reward true betting skill — identifying the sharpest bettors over the course of the Betting Tournament, not those who get lucky on low-probability long shots. This competition is about consistency, discipline, and the ability to beat the books over time. Smart wagering wins here — not one-off miracles.
- Participants are eligible to wager up to seven (7) Units per day on Australian Open Men’s and Women’s Singles matches, broken down as follows:
- Up to five (5) Units per day may be placed as “Sharp Units,” which must be straight bets only (no parlays).
- Up to two (2) Units per day may be used as “Utility Units,” which may be parlayed.
- All parlays are capped at +500 odds, regardless of their calculated or “true” odds. This cap is in place to limit variance and ensure the competition rewards consistent, repeatable edges rather than low-probability, high-payout outcomes.
- To remain eligible for prizing, participants must wager a minimum of forty-five (45) total Units over the course of the Tournament.
