The Westgate SuperBook will debut two new football handicapping contests this season, SuperContest Survivor and SuperContest College.
Survivor is a $5,000-entry, winner-take-all elimination contest in which participants must pick a winning team, with no point spreads, each week of the 18-week NFL regular season. Teams can be used only once.
The SuperBook will continue to offer SuperContest Gold, its $5,000-entry, winner-take-all contest in which participants make five weekly picks against the spread during the NFL season.
“We’ve been talking about doing Survivor for the last couple of years,” Westgate vice president of race and sports John Murray said. “We wanted to do something a little bit different, and in keeping with that theme of the SuperContest Gold, we thought it would be a cool idea to do a $5,000 Survivor contest as well for the more high-end players.”
