Prop Pick’em: How It Works

Prop Pick’em: How It Works

Put your player prop knowledge to the test by making picks throughout the month, climbing the leaderboard, and competing for real cash prizes. Prop Pick’em is a skill-based contest where you earn points by correctly predicting eligible player props. The users with the most correct picks at the end of the month finish at the top of the leaderboard and compete for prizes.


How to Play

1. Join the Contest

Head to the Contests tab and enter the current Prop Pick’em contest.

Depending on the contest, you may be able to enter:

  • 🆓 Free Contest

  • ⭐ Premium Contest

  • Or both (when available)

Each contest has its own leaderboard and prize pool.


2. Submit Your Picks

Throughout the contest period, submit up to 30 eligible player prop picks.

Eligible picks include:

  • Player Over/Under props

  • Odds between 1.85 and 2.30

  • Props designated as eligible within the LVLup app

You don’t need to submit all 30 picks to participate, but every correct pick is another opportunity to climb the leaderboard.


3. Picks Lock at Game Time

You can edit, replace, or remove a pick anytime before its game begins. Once a game starts, that pick is locked and can no longer be changed.

Make sure all of your picks are finalized before kickoff.


How Scoring Works

Scoring is simple.

  • ✅ Every correct pick earns 1 point.

  • ❌ Incorrect picks receive 0 points.

At the end of the contest, users are ranked by their total number of correct picks. The more correct picks you make, the higher you’ll climb the leaderboard.

Leaderboard ranking is based on total correct picks, not ROI, profit, or win percentage.


What Happens If a Pick Is Voided?

Occasionally, a player prop may become:

  • Cancelled

  • Voided

  • Postponed beyond the contest period

  • Otherwise ruled as a non-scored pick

If that happens:

  • The pick won’t count as correct or incorrect.

  • It won’t count toward your 30 scored picks.

  • If the contest is still open, you can submit another eligible pick as a replacement.


Leaderboards

Your position updates as your picks are graded throughout the contest.

Use the leaderboard to:

  • 🏆 See where you rank

  • 📈 Track your progress throughout the month

  • 👥 Compare your performance against other players

Final rankings are determined after all eligible picks have been graded at the end of the contest.


Tiebreakers

If two or more users finish with the same number of correct picks, ties are broken using:

  • Average Odds of Valid Scored Picks

  • The participant whose correct picks had the higher average odds will finish higher in the rankings.

If participants are still tied after the tiebreaker, the applicable prizes for those positions are combined and divided equally.


Winning Prizes

Prize pools vary from contest to contest.

Each contest page will display:

  • Prize pool

  • Number of winners

  • Contest dates

  • Entry type (Free and/or Premium)

  • Any additional contest-specific details

Prize winners are contacted after final standings have been verified.


Tips for Success

While there’s no guaranteed strategy, many successful players:

✔ Submit picks consistently throughout the month.

✔ Focus on props they’ve researched rather than guessing.

✔ Use Discover to find opportunities.

✔ Validate every pick using Bet Breakdown before submitting.

Remember, the goal isn’t just to make picks. It’s to make well-researched picks.
