Contest quick picks and traditional quick picks are separate picks within BettingPros.
Quick picks made from the Contest tab will automatically be contest-eligible and will count toward your contest entry.
Quick picks made elsewhere in the app/site must be designated as Contest picks.
To maintain a zero-risk, high-reward contest environment, contest picks will not count toward your dashboard, accuracy competitions, or anywhere outside of the contest.
If you want to make a quick pick that counts toward the contest and toward your dashboard or leaderboards, you must make two separate picks (one contest-eligible, and one that is not).
