I beg to differ

Payouts are 99% official. I'm still going to triple check my work before x-ferring, but I think this is correct.

250: 93 entrants. Added a 4th payout. 55/20/15/10

1st: 12787.50
2nd: 4650
3rd: 3487.50
4th: 2325

50$ Bracket - 195 entrants 50/20/10/10/5/5

1st: 4875
2nd: 1950
3rd: 975
4th: 975
5th: 487.50
6th: 487.50

10$ Bracket - 230 Entries 50/20/10/10/5/5

1st: 1150
2nd: 470
3rd: 215
4th: 215
5th: 107.50
6th: 107.50

I'm certainly open to a slightly less top heavy structure, but most people in years past have wanted them that way.

The 50/10 were the same as last year, just with a few more entries. I had no precedent for the 250, so just kinda put something in the middle of past payouts.

note my guess is pretty spot on!

I for one embrace our top-heavy payout overlords

alrighttttttt

what i need to ship 13k:

duke must get to the final 4 at least (this actually would be enough to win in a couple scenarios)

kansas MUST beat richmond. if richmond wins micah eliminates me

florida cannot make it to the title game

i also have the (almost) nut ohio state bracket in the 50. kansas getting in the title game would cost me that. if the rest of the s16 games go correctly for me i need to figure out how to hedge

I win the $50 if Ohio State beats Kansas in the title game and the final 4 is Ohio St, Duke, Kansas, Florida.

If the final 4 were the same as above I'd winner no matter what if it was a Ohio St/Florida final.

If Kansas beats anyone but Duke in the Final and UCONN or OSU makes the final 4, I get 1st or second, and usually 1st!

This is pretty fun for me, cuz I've always liked to root for Kansas and against Duke!

****ing unbelievable. i had arizona over duke til that ****ing ******* rat **** ********** announced irving was coming back

amazingly there are still semi-realistic scenarios where i win the 250

1. osu cannot make it to the title game
2. kansas cannot make it to the final 4
3. florida cannot make it to the title game

meh, not TOTALLY realistic, but **** man, gotta have some hope
