yes and no

I'm on Baylor pretty big today,but not as a hedge.

I'm not even sure if I can win anything in that contest...and if I can I don't know how much or what book....and its not $ so tough to hedge in a situation like that.

I guess if Duke wins, and covers at least i'll have the bracket as a consolation

I might be wrong but you might have a shot at like 2nd-4th place and a nice payday if Duke wins it all.. you should look into it..

what I meant by not being able to win, was I remember some wording about opening 3 new accounts... but I had an account with every single book they wanted you to open accounts at.... so i'm not sure what the procedure and final decision was on that

Oh ..I see..

Think you are OK if you already have all the accounts.. could be wrong though

ok thanks for the update, I had given up on my bracket after my finalist Syracuse got knocked out...

Chi_archie · 03-29-10, 12:26 PM

I think if Duke beats WVU I "lock in" 4th place, and if duke wins it all I finish 2nd to DonJuan...

So the game between WVU and Duke is the biggest game of this contest

well have to check the brackets and points a little closer, before I think about hedging.

any reasonable teaser (4, 4.5 or 5) would have covered for you. as i mentioned to you earlier, the conf and ncaa tourneys are the BEST time to play teasers in cbb because talent is closer and neutral crts w/rims and shooting sightlines that BOTH teams have to get used to/adjust to during the gm

I had asked Lou about that question. He told me just to submit any 3 accounts that I already had. Since a lot of us already signed up with all the accounts with BTP. He said everything is fine with it.

Before I made my picks I had asked CrazyL about that. Since I already had accounts with BTP, he told me just to enter any 3 and it will be ok.

Here is the confirmation I received from Big Killa CrazyLou
