‘KKoz’ is The Last Man Standing! Congratulations to ‘KKoz’, the winner of the 2017 OSGA Last Man Standing Contest! He beat out over 120 other players by picking winners for 12 straight weeks! ‘KKoz’ wins the Grand Cash Prize of $800, courtesy of OSGA.

After week 5 of the NFL season the Last Man Standing Contest was down to just four players, who duked it out for four more weeks. In week 9 ‘Dallas12’ went out and in week 11 ‘missmarian’ lost on her pick of Kansas City. The next week, with just two players alive, the Chiefs again took down ‘Goomba’, who finished as the runner-up on the contest.

This year we did things a bit differently. The prize pool was progressive and it was a ‘winner take all’ cash prize! The remaining prizes were all large Free Plays at Elite-rated BetMania. Back in week 10 the prize pot began to grow at a pace of $100 per week and thus in week 12, the prize pot was worth $800.

With his 4th place finish ‘Dallas12’ is able to collect a $200 Free play at BetMania, 3rd place gave ‘missmarian’ $250 and Goomba was able to take on a whopping $550 Free Play from a top-rated online sportsbook.

“Last year was the first year that we had to wait until the last week of the season to crown the Last Man Standing.” said OSGA President Jim Quinn. “This year, it got really exciting when we had four players going head-to-head for several weeks.”

Now in its 6th year the OSGA Last Man Standing Contest brings out the best in players. But, many players did not make it out of the first week as Week 1 losses by New England and Houston took out a quarter of the field! By the sixth week of the season the field was down to just 13 contestants and then Denver lost to the previously winless New York Giants, taking out half of the remaining players.
