2308859, More than that

Prior to today only 0.2% of brackets were still in the mix

2308863, I wonder how many brackets will be left at Sweet 16?

Cause only brackets that picked Mercer was:
1) Dumb ass Mercer Alum
2) Even dumber Duke/G. Hill/C. Laetner haters
3) Computer generated "Quik Pik" brackets

This is better than Mattress Mack's Super Bowl promo
2308867, zero

in the last seven years, not a single person in ESPN's Tourney Challenge has even picked the entire first round correctly, let alone the first two rounds.
2308912, only *16 perfect brackets left out of the 11 million

David D’s Official Bracket, kmoore123′s Super Bracket and NoLegs’ Notable Bracket are the last men and or women standing.

One of these people may be billionaire by the end of the month, but the chances of that happening are about one in 4,294,967,296.

2308938, Now it's one. Maybe zero.

Two of those three picked New Mexico over Stanford. The third hid his/her bracket, so you can't tell if they picked Stanford or not.
2308945, edit: seven left.

that article just linked the wrong brackets. in the Billion Dollar pool there's seven left.
2308950, I'm only talkin bout Billion $ brackets game. None other.
Posted by deejboram, Fri Mar-21-14 05:09 PM
I guess ESPN has their own separate version too.
But hell, we can combine both games for like almost 20,000,000 brackets and still less than double-digits of them are left.
2308955, me too...although only six left:

article was wrong to begin with.
2308969, And it'll be three after OKST and Gonzaga
Posted by SoulHonky, Fri Mar-21-14 05:52 PM
Three of those entries will be getting that one wrong.
2308977, And even if Gonzaga wins, it'll likely drop down to zero again
Posted by mrhood75, Fri Mar-21-14 06:07 PM
Because all three of the remaining perfect brackets also picked N. Central to beat Iowa St. And two of them picked Providence over North Carolina. I really can't see that happening.
2308998, I thought Smart would go deeper.
Posted by deejboram, Fri Mar-21-14 06:47 PM
Pause.
2309022, About to be zero; all 3 left picked George Washington

2308943, people....this is how casinos make money.

Imagine if sportsbook.ag or caliente.com.mx offered a prop bet for the same billion but only allowed you to bet $1 on it.
11,000,000 would take them up on the offer.
And not even two days into the tourney, The House is up $11,000,000
easy money
2308951, Bayesian bol droppin that 5%
