          well considering youd be going against other people the odds arent that much to actually win points,

          plus 8 of the games today are 1, 2,3,4 seeds


          and its a few points, everyone talks about how great they are on here

                The people that enter only affect the payout. The odds of hitting a 16 team parlay, regardless of seeds or game odds are:

                2 to the power of the number of games (for each game can have 2 results - fave or dog covers is moot as are pushes, either your team wins or loses), so on a 2-team it would be "2-squared" or 4-1, on a 6 teamer it would be 2 to the power of 6 or 64-1, a 16-teamer would be 2 to the power of 16, which is also 16 to the power of 4 or 256-squared - which is 65,536, you need to subtract 1 from it, so the true odds would be 65,535:1. Again, you really need to find the biggest mark on the board to take this.

                  From the OP, it sounds like he wins everything that isn't 15-1 or 16-0.

                    no if you go to 15-1 and or worse (less), you recieve half the points thats first place

                    2nd recieves a quarter

                    3rd recieves their points back



                    but forget it as usually sbr people makes more difficult then needed
