Select which 2, 3, 4, or 5 players will perform better or worse than their projected outcome, get all your questions right, and win!
There are two types questions you can answer:
• Over/Unders - Select whether a player will perform Over or Under their projected performance for a stat. For example, for LeBron James Over/Under 29.5 Points, if LeBron scores 29 points or less, Under would be correct. If James scores more than 29 points, Over would be correct.
• Matchups - Select whether a player will perform better than another player in a stat category. Some questions may include a bonus to make the matchups more fair. For example, in Aaron Rodgers (+20.5) Passing Yards vs Patrick Mahomes, if Rodgers throws for 250 yards and Mahomes throws for 260 yards, Rodgers would win the matchup because of the added bonus of 20.5 yards. Rodger’s total would equal 270.5 (250+20.5) and Mahomes’ total would equal 260.
As you play, you can combine Over/Unders and Matchups together to make up your entry.
Pay Tables:
• 5/5 correct picks - 20x

• 2/2 correct picks - 3x
• 1 correct and 1 tie - 1.5x

Max Entry Fee: $125-$1,000, varies by sport

With Coverage, you are able to win even if one of your picks misses the mark. To play, enter the minimum required picks and turn on the Coverage toggle before submitting your entry.
Coverage Pay Table:
• 5/5 correct picks - 10x
• 4/5 correct picks - 2x
• 3/5 correct picks - 0.4x
• 4/4 correct picks - 5x
• 3/4 correct picks - 1.5x
• 3/3 correct picks - 2.25x
• 2/3 correct picks - 1.25x
Ties and cancellations will reduce the amount of scored questions within an entry and regress the entry payout down a pick.
For example:
• A 5 pick entry (10x) with a tie or cancellation will regress to a 4 pick entry (5x)
• A 5 pick entry (10x) with two ties or cancellations will regress to a 3 pick entry (2.25x)
• A 4 pick entry (5x) with a tie or cancellation will regress to a 3 pick entry (2.25x)
In the event of a tie or cancellation with a 3 pick coverage entry, the submission will turn into a regular 2 pick entry.
After each cancellation the entry gets revalidated to make sure there is a valid amount of picks left and that the remaining eligible picks are both from 2 different teams. Entries that fail to meet these qualifications as a result of a cancellation will be canceled and refunded.
If an entry has 2 picks remaining where one is correct and the other is a tie, the user is subject to a payout. However, if an entry has 2 picks remaining where one is a tie and the other is incorrect then the entry won’t have a payout. If all eligible picks in an entry are tied then the user will be refunded their entry fee.
Please refer to the rest of the How To Play rules to learn more about our rules for valid entries, ties, and cancellations.
A valid Pick ‘Em entry must have at least 2 players and must include player choices from at least 2 teams. A player can only be chosen once per entry for a given performance.
• Example: If there is a question asking about Josh Allen’s passing yards vs the Cowboys and another question asking about Allen’s rushing yards vs the Cowboys, both choices can’t be added to an entry at the same time.
• Example: If there is a question asking about Josh Allen’s performance vs the Cowboys and another question asking about Allen’s performance vs the Jets, both Allen questions can be added to the entry. However, the entry must have at least one more pick where the player chosen is part of a different team.
Additionally, Pick ‘Em is subject to a max entry fee and a limit on the cumulative entry fees that can be used on a given choice.
• For example, Pick ‘Em has an entry fees limit for a choice of $1,500. If a Steph Curry Over 25 Points choice is submitted with an entry fee of $100, that choice can only be used in additional $1,400 worth of entry fees across all future entries. If a Steph Curry Under 25 Points is chosen for the same question, the entry fees from that choice won’t contribute to the $1,500 limit. Choosing a Steph Over for a different game or different stat will also not contribute to the limit.
The max entry fee per entry, max picks per entry, and entry fees limit per choice are subject to change over time for promotional reasons or other purposes as part of Monkey Tilt’s discretion. However, if an entry is submitted before a change to the previously mentioned limits, it will be scored under the pre-changed conditions.
Monkey Tilt reserves the right to remove or edit player selections at any time as projections and matchups may change. However, any picks made by the user will be scored as they were originally submitted.
All questions must be submitted before a game starts. Users that break this rule will be subject to a cancellation of either their entry or the submitted question.
Entries and questions may be canceled at the discretion of Monkey Tilt. In any such event, your account balance will be refunded if you paid for a canceled entry.
Users who are suspected of malicious play will be subject to a ban or limitation of gameplay, per Monkey Tilt’s discretion.

In the event there is a scoring error, Monkey Tilt may resettle all impacted entries and adjust any payouts or losses from the incorrectly scored entries within 30 minutes of the game ending. If there are official stat corrections 30 minutes or more after the game has ended, those stats, entries and payouts will be determined by Monkey Tilt in its sole and final discretion.
Cancellations
Each question cancellation reduces the amount of scored questions within an entry and regresses the entry payout down a pick.
• 5 picks in an entry regress to 4 picks
• 4 picks in an entry regress to 3 picks
• 3 picks in an entry regress to 2 picks
• If an entry has 2 picks remaining and one gets canceled, then the entry will be canceled and refunded.
After each cancellation the entry gets revalidated to make sure there is a valid amount of picks left and that the remaining eligible picks are all from 2 different teams. Entries that fail to meet these qualifications as a result of a cancellation will be canceled and refunded.
Questions where a player did not play are equal to cancellations. In the event of a player not playing in a matchup question, the entire question will be canceled. Below are the conditions for an inactive player:
• NFL/CFB - if a player doesn't play a snap.
• NBA - if a player plays 0 minutes.
• MLB - if a player isn’t in the starting lineup (excluding pitchers). If a pitcher does not start but does enter the game in relief, that pitcher is considered active.
• NHL - if a player does not have at least 1 second time on ice (skater), if a player doesn’t start (goalie).
• Soccer - if a player doesn’t start.
• Tennis - if a player doesn't start the match.
• MMA/Boxing - if the fight does not begin or if it ends in a no contest. If the fight ends in a disqualification or a draw, all questions will be scored as usual.
*Inactivity is subject to duration asked in the question (e.g, 1st Half, 2nd Half, etc). Shortened games that are deemed “official games” will be scored as usual.
If a game is postponed, questions for the game will be canceled. Monkey Tilt may also cancel all questions for a game that has been suspended depending on the duration and time of the postponement.
Ties are considered as eligible questions. Each tied question regresses the entry payout down a pick.
• 5 picks in an entry regress to 4 picks
• 4 picks in an entry regress to 3 picks
• 3 picks in an entry regress to 2 picks
• If an entry has 2 picks remaining where one is correct and the other is a tie, the user is subject to a payout. However, if an entry has 2 picks remaining where one is a tie and the other is incorrect then the entry won’t have a payout. If all eligible picks in an entry are tied then the user will be refunded their entry fee.
Cancellations rules supersede ties in the event both occur in an entry. Entry must remain valid (see Entry Restrictions section above).
Submitted entries are final. They cannot be canceled or edited for any reason.
Live tracking should not be treated as official scoring or the final result of an event. Official scoring and results will be posted once the game has concluded and box score stats have been finalized.
Overtime scoring is included for most sports, with a few exceptions:
• Penalty shootouts in soccer
• Penalty goals in hockey (NHL)
• Playoff holes in golf
Users must be 18+ years of age to play and deposit (19+ in Nebraska) and all users must have only 1 account.
