pretty sure this clinches it for me without a single team in the final 4:

marquette/unc over OSU

arizona over uconn

florida state/vcu over kansas

butler over florida

EZ ****ING GAME!

if AZ makes the F4 and Kansas plays OSU in the finals me and m_reed are basically betting (w/e diff between 1st and 2nd is) on that game

gonna ride AZ to 1st though

edit: i didnt have osu in the F4 tho so obviously them losing asap is huge for me

So, I have OSU in the F4 but it looks like I have even better equity if they lose to UNC. I think a Kansas, Butler, UNC, UCONN F4 means I am guaranteed to cash, and I Top 2 every outcome but a UCONN championship (with a few ties). So, those are my teams throughout the weekend.

Never had this nice of a bracket sweat; should be fun.

Edit: Kansas Vs UNC in the final for a freeroll to chop first with our pool moderator. GL ZBT!

Think I can get into top 3 in the $10 if Ohio loses to NC then Kansas ships it all

I'm still pumped I was in 120th place this morning and now I have at least a gutshot to win - ONE TIME UNC/KANSAS!

Somehow in all of my scenario generating, I never considered the fact that OSU could lose to UK. Looks like I can't take first unless OSU ships this, yet I have tons of possibilities for victory if they do. As a Michigander, it pains me to say it, but go Buckeyes, one time!

amazing. if VCU beats kansas i can do no worse than 2nd to micah (and that only happens if florida wins the semi)

if VCU beats kansas and butler beats florida i win the $250 outright in EVERY scenario despite having 0 teams in the final 4

march madness indeed!

time to look over prices and begin my hedges: first hedge, KU ML against VCU (i'd be open to offers to sell my bracket just to avoid the hassle of wagering and end the sweat, pm me an offer)

lol in the 10$ bracket i am in 2nd and 4th with the 2nd and 3rd highest potential points

need either kansas or uconn to ship. a kansas uconn final might get me 1st and 2nd not sure

Last edited by gostatego; 03-26-2011 at 03:09 AM. Reason: need a couple things to happen but basically uconn/kansas winning = me shipping at least some $

i can get 3rd in 1 specific scenario and get 5th or 6th in a few as long as Kansas/Florida Final 4 and Kansas wins

realistic? nah
