I have every pro memorized

and every morning I open up a spreadsheet that tells me anyone that expires that day, and any new sign ups we had overnight

hit me with a list. I'll tell you if they are PRO or not

have you used the scenario generator?

you can just put the games remaining picks in, and see how any iteration will make the final standings be.

without even using that tool, the final 4 breakdown tells me taht people that have Zaga winning will not be moving up too much more

out of 309 entries

257 have zaga in final 4
221 in the final game
152 to win the final game

Sweet!!

Using that, I know I have an SBR Pro membership on the way!

**blankoblanco** · 04-03-21, 10:26 PM

It's actually kinda crazy how hardly anybody near the top of the standings picked Baylor to win it all. I think the result of the finals will only shift the overall payouts by 1? And it's between Chi_Archie (Gonzaga) and BTRayray (Baylor) to get 1st place

Big difference for me! If Gonzaga wins, I get 7th/8th while if Baylor wins I get 24th-25th, difference between 2800-3000 points vs none! But yeah should be a good sweat - let's go Zags!

Oh damn, you're absolutely right. Can see now that it does make a meaningful difference for quite a few people. I've been a bit spoiled by the luck I've had I guess! Still surprising how few have Baylor to win it though

Go Zags!

**jackpot269** · 04-03-21, 11:21 PM

If Baylor win Ill be 15th

Just glad to have a chance to win something decent. After Texas lost in first round and Illinois in second round (both of whom I had in Final Four), I figured I was totally finished! So is nice to be in contention still!

**BT RayRay** · 04-04-21, 05:24 AM

I hate to say this but I think it’s all or nothing for me. A lot of people have Gonzaga and can still pass me up. I stopped counting at 10.

Do you want to work out a loser's insurance deal between us two?

Something like if Zaga wins I'd give you 1k points if baylor wins you give me 1700 points

I'd listen too any amounts or counter offer proposals today

Good idea. Or also the possibility of hedging by betting the opposite side as is common to ensure you walk away with something could be wise as well (as I plan to!).

Women’s or men’s?

**Spektre** · 04-05-21, 08:18 PM

I'm either 3 or 4 depending on tonight.

I was already counting those points on Gonzaga. What a letdown. But well deserved by the Baylor backers. That was fun. Thanks SBR.

**LT Profits** · 04-06-21, 08:48 AM

I corrected misalignment in Champions column, Standings and prizes were correct though.

**Getch13** · 04-06-21, 09:08 AM

Rule the world.

More specifically there’s a post on the Betpoints thread about becoming a Pro
