I made this assumption earlier in the thread but its most likely going to come into play now. Is the final game score tiebreaker being used or is it automatic chop on a tie? I've tried to get a hold of samenole and dpeters17 and got confirmation from sam that he'd chop and havent heard from dpeters17. Just trying to figure this out for hedging purposes, I'm assuming we're using final score tiebreaker? Or we defaulting to a chop, not sure what the policy has been in these for the most part, since I'm always out by now.

Tiebreaker is in play. You are free to work out whatever deals you want obv,

Jestein can you briefly explain how the tiebreaker is calculated? Since we filled out scores for both teams I'm assuming team/whatever team is in their place scores matter, instead of just combined points, correct?

Tiebreakers: With respect to the Perfect Bracket Prize, in the event that more than one verified Entrant correctly predicts the outcome of all 63 games played in the 2011 Tournament on a single Game Bracket, or with respect to the Best Bracket Prize, if more than one verified Entrant has a Game Bracket with the highest score (using Yahoo!'s Default Scoring formula) among the Game Brackets of all verified Entrants participating in this Promotion, Sponsor will attempt to break the tie by awarding the Prize, among those tied:

1. to the Entrant whose answer to the Tiebreaker Question on the tied Game Bracket is closest to the actual total score of the Championship Game (i.e. Total number of points scored by Team A plus Total number of points scored by Team B);

2. in the event that the tie is still not broken, to the Entrant (among those still tied) whose answer to the Tiebreaker Question on the tied Game Bracket is closest to the actual score of the winning team in the Championship Game; and

3. in the event that the tie is still not broken, to the Entrant (among those still tied) whose answer to the Tiebreaker Question on the tied Game Bracket is closest to the actual score of the losing team in the Championship Game.
In the event that the tie is still not broken after applying the tiebreakers above, the affected Prize will be divided evenly among all such still-tied, verified Entrants, and each prize awarded will be payable according to the same time schedule as above.
Refer above.

I actually hedged and am a little pissed since if KY won I would have had like a 10pt middle on a hedge on the title and way more upside.

very rough
04-03-2011 , 11:03 PM
any idea for when escrows will be shipping? Monday?
04-04-2011 , 05:41 AM
Jestein,
I see above that you say tiebreaker is in play. Can you confirm that it is in play to determine the second place finisher as well (not just the winner)? Kutty and I are exactly tied for second going into tonight's game and while neither of us can finish 1st, a Butler victory would keep us locked in a tie.
04-04-2011 , 03:21 PM
Im ready to ship just waiting on PM from jestien since I don't know where all the $ should go since its from multiple pools
04-04-2011 , 04:40 PM

Thanks.

i am never escrowing for the squares pool again and i want to let it be known that i did a glorious favor to the high stakes no limit community and any of the people that participated in the squares pool should buy me dinner next time they see me. even if they lost.

yes i won some, but let's not be results oriented here people.
04-05-2011 , 11:48 PM
i should have $46k + my entires. this shows $47k-- i later sent $1k back to DumpingKGB/PXFACTOR because he oversent.

so, i don't think i paid 6k in entires... i played in the 1k regular, 2k worth of squares (4 @$500 each).. and that's it? i obv paid the s16 random pool to sub separately. am i missing something? that's 49k. i counted my transfer history like 5x

edit: nevermind. i figured it out, im onnly 1k off. i think where we're different is on dumping kgb. i sent him 1k back because he said he overpaid, was he overpaid or not?

to be clearm he sent me 13k (4k, 4k, 5k) and i sent him 1k back because he said one of his entires did not get in.
