      Glad to see I'm somewhat favored to do well in a contest of coin flipping.
      Haha. Yeah I was just about to calculate that hold. That's outrageous. The clear winner in this contest is BetJam. They will certainly make more off of it than they are contributing in prize money...

        How am I at worse odds than rjtt, I don't have a clue what I am doing....granted I am still one of the bottom guys but still rjt is solid all around and never draws attention. I'll take a bet me +130 against Venditto, maybe.

                  How many players can you bet ? Is it there a limit of players ? Mathematically doesnt make sense, I can place a $1 on every person and be profitable unless im missing something ?

                    if you bet a 1 on every person you would spend 128 dollars. if you win most you would win is 60 i think biggest odds are 6000?

                      I'm thinkning the odds are somewhat based upon 1st round matchups, possibly looking ahead to 2nd round.

                      When are the matchups gonna be posted?

                        I see LT and BTJ at +3000
                        then Kaps +3200, woodg8 +3500, and pavy, durito, accuscoresucks at +3800

                        i might put 30-40 on woodg8 if i know he is only doing international soccer and picking 1-2 plays a day, he is pretty solid on soccer.

                        i sure as hell ain't putting money on myself.

                              People, those odds represent a 61% hold for the book.

                              Meaning for every dollar wagered BetJM expects to make 61 cents.

                              That compares with approx 4.5% for -110/-110.

                              You'd be better off playing powerball.

                                You can't do math...

                                If everyone was +5000 .... and you bet 1 buck on everyone.... you are risking 128 bucks...

                                So you go 1-127 on this

                                you win 50 bucks, but lost 127....

                                  If somebody is +7500, maybe that means they lost their f'n shirt at betjamaica and betjamaica presumes they are likely not going to win

                                  I dunno, just guessing

                                    i'm not going to actually put money on anyone, but i play powerball, and played 5 bucks last night and didn't even have a number, so i don't know what i would have better chance at.

                                          They didn't assign the odds to any specific poster based on their true likelihood of winning.

                                          It's done by a random number generator where they gave the computer the 128 odds they wanted to be placed and then they assigned them randomly to posters.

                                          Random in the statistical sense of the term refers to every event having equally probability of being selected. That is everyone had the same probability of being selected +3000 as they did for +6500.

                                          I wouldn't read anything into these odds....

                                                  They'd have to disable your ability to bet on your opponent and throw the match so I doubt it. Could also be done through a friend too. I'm sure that's why they aren't offering it...

                                                    Right... No way to avoid giving away free money there. BetJam did it for fun and to create some extra interest. Find a sharp on the board with high odds and it can get interesting.

                                                      It's done by a random number generator where they gave the computer the 128 odds they wanted to be placed and then they assigned them randomly to posters.

                                                      Random in the statistical sense of the term refers to every event having equally probability of being selected. That is everyone had the same probability of being selected +3000 as they did for +6500.

                                                      I wouldn't read anything into these odds....

                                                      That's what I figured, I was just a little confused as to why they'd bother doing that rather than making everyone +5000. I guess it makes it more "fun" seeing different guys with different odds.


                                                      Actually, how do you even know that?

                                                          I just realized only 30 (and that's being generous) of the regular posters are in this contest. I hope one of them wins it all but I see 4th in my future so get ready for the +500 bets!
