    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

    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!

    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!

    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!

    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!).
