If you were knocked out of your Survivor contest, don't despair, because you have another chance to cash in!

Life sometimes comes down to second chances. This is such an instance.

BetOnline has been conducting its huge NFL Survivor contests for years and now there is an opportunity to get into the action for the first time if you haven't been there, and for another shot if you have been eliminated.

With the 2nd Chance $150,000 NFL Survivor Contest, you can buy as many entries as you want, up to a maximum of 25, and then go do your thing. And you can enter it all the way up until Monday, October 7th at 8:05 PM ET. The prize pool is huge, but it is also growing! As more  players enter and more contest etnries are purchased, BetOnline passes that onto the winning player(s). Right now the 150k is more than a whopping $175,000!

In case you're not aware of how a Survivor or Last Man Standing contest works, you are going to be required to make one pick per week, seeking a team that you are looking to win outright. What that means is that you are not concerned with pointspreads at all. Simply get the winner and you will move on.

Sounds easy, right?

Yes. But now consider that you will not be able to pick the same team twice. Ah-hah, that changes things, doesn't it?

In case you're not aware how that is, well, look at it this way - when you start these things out, you are probably endeavoring to get a few "free passes" as you move along. That would seem to imply that you'll want some easy winners.

Since the dog in this situation would be around +600, figure that if you met in the middle, you'd be looking at a seven-out-of-eight, or 87.5% chance of winning straight-up with that favored team.

Okay, you can move forward that way, and you'd have the odds in your favor, to say the least. But as you keep going, you're going to find that it's more difficult to sink those two-foot putts. Logic might dictate that you would be calling on the better teams at any given point in time, and those teams are gradually not available to you.

This is what makes the contest so interesting. And it's more of a reason why you should probably consider buying a lot of entries.

And the more you buy, the better deal you're going to get. Check this out:

One entry: $30
Entries 2-5: $20 apiece
Entries 6-10: $15 apiece
Entries 11-25: $10 apiece

if you want to be involved in this, you will have to have a valid account with BetOnline. As you probably know, you can use a multitude of payment methods, including cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, for which there are no transaction fees charged.

You can have a lot of fun with many more entries, because it allows you to make a few bold moves that might pay off, where the consequences are not as significant as they would be if you had only a single entry.

A few other things you should know:

* Everything runs through your BetOnline account. That is to say, all the entry fees are paid out of your account, and any prizes you win will be added to your account balance. So it's very clean.

* The prize available right now is a guaranteed $175,000. If, after Week 17 of the NFL season, you are the only contestant left, you will win the entire prize. If there is more than one winner, the $175,000 will be split among them.

* Whatever team you're going with in any particular week, you have until five minutes before the kickoff of that team's game to make your selection.

* This is exclusively available online. So there is no participation through any other avenue.

Stand tall - and stand alone! Good luck with your second chance!
