                Fukk that. Warren Buffett giving away $1m A YEAR for life if someone is perfect just through the sweet 16. And if Nebraska or creighton win it all he’ll double it to 2m a year for life.

                            i think it's funny how the online books offer a million for perfect bracket when the odds are worse than powerball ur better off buying a 2 dollar pball ticket and having more of a chance winning 420 million next drawing

                                  If the true odds are 195,000,000 to 1, then that is a +EV play.

                                      Obviously the number of brackets filled out matters.

                                      I wonder how many were last year. It looks like around 3-4 million.

                                                      Before games tipped off yesterday I think I saw it at +2500 yes and -6000 no.

                                                      I guess some folks pounded the yes! Worst bet ever.
