I hope my current match-up isn't in a dome. I'm no good indoors. I gotta cap out in the wild.

Tough bracket to make with everyone having to win their play-in game.

It may have been a good idea to actually be able to pick our brackets like we did for NCAA hoops to see who gets the most points in terms of picking the winner.

Well, here are some breakdowns as I see it per each draw of round 2. Feel free to counter some of my reasoning or add your own.



The most popular match of this draw figures to be Iwinyourmoney vs DonJuan. Iwinyourmoney has definitely lived up to his handle at SBR, best known for his 14-0 stretch ATS to start off the NBA Playoffs. Wi]n, lose, or draw, Iwinyourmoney has established himself as one of the premier, most respected handicappers at SBR with his expertise, systems, and lets face it the photos of the beautiful Mrs. Iwinyourmoney who attended the bash with him. Best of luck, Iwin. You're facing an extremely tough, well respected handicapper in Donjuan whose best known for his contributions in SBR's Think Tank discussions. Donjuan likes to mix in a lot of soccer games which I spend hours trying to locate the scores of, so a small part of me is pulling for the Illinois native to edge him out here in a contest that is billed to be one of the most highly viewed matches in Round 2.



In this corner of the draw we have an interesting match in Goldengoat vs Bmw530i. Goldengoat was the champion of the last SBR poster handicapping challenge, and has come into this event with somewhat of a chip on his shoulder as he was heavily dogged by Bet Jamaica in the futures market. Still, has odds dropped down a tad before Round 1 began, as any capper worth his salt would find value in the defending champ at 50-1.Bmw530i is no pushover, though, and it should make for an enjoyable match to follow.



DacBiet vs Aftermath Sports. Two controversial figures around the board, both known for their flamboyant posting styles and sports expertise, Dac commands a lot of attention on the board and his match should be no different from a viewing perspective. It's tough to pick a winner here, good thing I am on the sidelines.



Two key matches here: Bettilimbroke999 vs TheJrichshow85, who are both coming off impressive round one victories, and Seaborneq vs Rjt721- a blockbuster match that pits the man who upset LT Profits in round one against the Boston Red Sox homer. The Jrichshow put on a dominant display of round one handicapping, finishing up 6-1 +5.26 units, and beat opponent PureGuava by a single cent as he finished 1-6 with his miracle ML bet cashing at just over 11-1 to bring his tally to +5.25 units. Seaborneq on the other hand played the role of 'kill joy', deading many peoples futures bets at Bet Jamaica in upsetting world class and heavily favored handicapper LT Profits.

I've got jet lag from my coast to coast trip.
How the heck did I land in the EAST bracket?

Coast to coast? That's rough, some people even factor that into their handicapping. Hope your flight was enjoyable.

The round 2 matches weren't really based off the 128 man first round, with this new 64 draw you can determine exactly who you will face if you advance. For instance if Iwin and Don are in the bracket right above you, you'd face either one of them.

Good luck.

Yes, we could have done a contest on the contest. Starting at 128 made that tough to do. We should work that out next time.

Very impressive crazyl

I don't think a single one of my soccer bets has won so far in the contest. Entertaining write-up. Good work.

Are you using XScores? That should take care of virtually every match available to bet in this contest.

[RickySteve]

If I weren't banned at 4 out of the 5 books in the contest, I'd like to have been involved.

[TodaysAction]

Nice job on the brackets and commentary.

Good info, thanks. I'd just google the team or league name and see what I could find, don't think I had used XScores before.

[EaglesPhan36]

Can you sticky this so it is easier to find?
