2016 NCAA Pool

[tims4wins]

It's the last column of the report you referenced

edit: sorry - go to tournament summary

 

[DJnVa]

Got it. Thanks.

Only 33 others picked UNC? I like that.

After 10 years I might have figured it out. Get a busy job, two kids , and don't watch a single game and boom, first place on day 1.

Simple, really.

I'm annoyed that I didn't follow my usual strategy of trying to pick the most plausible champ that is unlikely to be picked by anyone else. That's how I came within a few inches of winning the pool with Butler in 2010. But, I ended up picking Michigan State this year, along with over 80 other people. My daughter figured it out I guess, as the only one in the pool to pick Duke (although that does strain the notion of "plausible champ.")

Also in again with Paypal. This is the only NCAA pool that I enter every year and have never taken any winnings. I'm hoping to change that, despite the fact I can't actually name more than probably 5 players in the tournament.

Well, that strategy did not work out too well.

 

[Gutierrezs Ghost]

That's a bad beat. I had picked 19 out of 20 games. Had MSU winning it all.

POOF!

Best run of my life

Can I reiterate that they people with like 5-10 entries anger me

I like looking through the reports and figuring out which games, even if I missed both teams playing in it, are important to me, and seeing some dude has 3 entries on each side.

Multiple entries raises the total pot for everyone.

 

[DJnVa]

I understand the math.


Is there going to be a scenario generator like in the past?

 

[Dan Murfman]

There will be. It takes a while to run so it will probably won't be up,until Monday afternoon

 

[Jeff Van GULLY]

Well I'm in the top 5 right now. Should be my high water mark.

 

[Dan Murfman]

I haven't been able to upload the player scenario report but below is a link to it.

Thanks for posting that Dan.

Quick look there is only one person that has more possible scenarios to win with Kansas winning it all. 476 combinations right now sounds pretty good to me.

 

[Dan Murfman]

Thanks Dan for doing this again. Far and away the best one I've played.

Any chance you can add Venmo as payment? I know a lot of people in my group would be able to pay that way.

Thanks for the Venmo suggestion. It was definitely the most used option.

And still chasing money but no where near as bad as last couple of years.

 

[Rossox]

Shesh, picked 3 of the Final 4 correctly and I still can't crack the Top 20. I suck.

 

[Humphrey]

Gotta have Villanova win and NC lose the next game to prevail. Virginia blowing it would have given me a few more options, but it didn't kill me. A lot of Michigan State sentiment in my pool.

 

[Dan Murfman]

After a rough year last year it went pretty smoothly. Top 5 has been paid or the check is in the mail. Thanks all

 

[DJnVa]

It's almost time!!!
