HRTV/ExpressBet did the same sort of thing....and to promote it, they had a crazed looking Jeff Siegel put on a crown, purple cape, and one of those gold things king's sometimes carry with them.

They get him to glare into the camera, and say "think you can out-handicap me? Puh! No one out-handicaps the king!"

I only hope YouBet is as creative in promoting that contest.

I remember about five or so years ago, Crist did one of those contests (I also believe for Youbet) During the promotional print ads for it, I think the photo they were using of his came straight from his high school yearbook.
