If SexyMit and Sammy come through I should be fine. I learned important lessons about bookmaking, life is a process of learning.

Yeah, picking the big favorites is a mine field just like all sports betting. I just hope I picked 10 winners or I'm out.

I think I got the hardest matchup the 1st rd. And what did I do? You put points on me winning?

My opinions aren't infallible. I'd make you a favorite against most posters. But, I didn't know there was no WNBA for the tourney when I made the odds, if I would have known that I would have made you smaller favorite, maybe a pick 'em.

As long as I keep my head above water I'll be taking action on the second round. Long ways to go, it's gonna be exciting.

Mathmatically impossible for me to lose ... so if you wanna ship them points lol . . . .

xxdjstriderxx · 09-04-09, 01:41 AM

What book pays people off in-game? I think it's possible that the first round could be scrapped and we could start this whole thing over. Small chance but a possibility.

It's not "mathematically impossible" for you to lose.

If his opponent has his best bet anything's possible. A +500 dog becomes a +1500 payout.

Exactly fearless. Although highly unlikely he will lose, anything is possible.

he is -700 ... He has 10 picks left.... He hits his x3 ... that brings him to -4.0, he then does a perfect 9-0 the rest of the way, he can only end up +5.0 at most.

Only prayer is to hit 2-3 +300 Dogs while going perfect.

Not Impossible

But I have a better getting jjgold laid at the Ms Universe contest

The best bet on a +500 dog becomes a +1500 payout. With these rules nobody's out of it because there will be huge dogs out there to the end and with the best bet the payouts can get huge.

Hey, with everything else that went wrong yesterday, why not have a bunch of these plays fail as well? Fukk.
