The story for the 15th seeded team has ended in lackluster fashion losing to the Tar heels 69-49.
It was a good run but the dream about going to the big ball just ended before the final four.

More devastated that I lost a 5 game parlay with the Hurricanes not winning their match today. It looked like they were going to win after the 1st half but it always depends on how a team going into the 2nd frame handles the pressure. Could of won $2000 from a $50 bet.
Next will be watching and enjoying the winners today going into The Final Four near the end of the week.

Trofo yeah, seems like a mix of upsets eventually helped me get across the line. Actually, can't find the Terms anymore, the 4-3-free tab doesn't even show me previous anymore unlike before. Probably right, can't be awarding 0 points peeps with freebets now, can they? 100s of participants by the looks of it.

So 3 correct for a prize then huh. Missed by one I did.

I will actually take a serious look at some upsets. Peacocks already locked in on a Clubhouse freebet haha @6.72 with a boost, the biggest odds I can see in the remaining selection.

Also, totally forgot I put this bet down but a Sportsbet notification reminded me. And the only reason I picked it was for the odds.


The second-biggest upset won in the first round, and the biggest one in Sweet Sixteen. Odds are no longer as crazy with Elite Eight... biggest is Peacocks again at 36/10 so no bets for me.

^Woohoo I ended up in 5th position so I can look forward to that tasty freebet ha. 1st place shared only by a few people on 6 points -- didn't see any nicks I recognise there so I guess no forum peeps. Also, I see a lot more people participate in this one compared to other American sports promos in the past -- something about basketball?

Keep an eye out for next round I guess, next game in just about 12 hours.
6 correct in competition like this sounds like a wet dream to me Smiley I ended with that 1 correct pick I had the day before so you were better in the end. That one pick is enough for 6th position so it looks a bit funny.

Where is the cutoff for free bets now? Not first 10 for sure since people with 0 correct are on 7th position.
I had 3 correct and received notification on the 4-3-free of a $10 freebet awarded for this round. As it shows another one for the Portugal WC Qualifier.
So it must be at 3 because there are 8 selections and those getting 6 meant they only had 2 wrong.
Probably was those who didn't think Saint Peter's would go thru to the Elite Eight which never happened in the history of the tournament with a 15th seed before. I knew they would do it but guessed they would of had more of a dog fight at the end to go into overtime so to get the over on points.
There was almost a tie 3 pointer that went in at the last second. But it fell short by an inch and bounced off the rim.

Almost had my betslip hit 54mbtc from a 8mbtc wager on the last three matches in the NCAA tournament and only off by 4 points to get the over on the Hurricanes.

Well, wow. Just checked the Leaderboard and I have a nice big fat zero points. Thought I'd mixed up a number of upsets there, but scored wrong on the Over/Under. Got Duke AND Arkansas... but went for low-scoring games on underdog wins. Wasted all my "luck" on the first round I guess.

Less than 24 hours to Elite Eight after the last Sweet Sixteen game, though, so we should be ready for next selection tomorrow.
Ha, I am better than you with 1 whole point, hopefully it will be enough to get at least free bet. Don't know why but I really like how some of these promos pay in USDT. I am always betting in BTC and often don't even think about bets in $ values so this makes a nice change of pace. I built my account to about 1500$ three times now and then lost it all. Every time starting point was 10$ or 50$ free bet.

I agree it only takes one 1 correct prediction to at least get in the top 10 since each prediction consists of two outcomes.

After the first four games today I got two teams correct Villanova and Duke but I failed to predict the correct total on the Villanova. On the bright side, the Duke pick puts me in the top 10 at the very least.

Well done! I see I have 2 points already and the top leaderboard has 3 so I guess I can be sure of a consolation prize at least. Getting the team right is hard enough, getting the over/under is truly like a cointoss,,, so it should be a mix of skill and luck,,, in my case totally luck  Grin

I scrolled through the leaderboard but do not recognize any names there. They are not alphabetical though so maybe I missed you.

Lost my 50USDT freebet, made it South Korea, Brazil, Saudi Arabia but China managed to force a draw sad.

I am more interested now in who did NOT win a prize as even getting 3 right wins a prize in the last one Wink

This one is much harder but with less selections too,,, so I guess even getting 1 right should win you 50USDT freebet. Put that down on one single game of 2x and you have 50 USDT cash Smiley It is a BIG prize for anyone for free!

Good to know it only takes one to qualify. Cause we both got the only selection correct for last night.
The leaderboard is show several who got 3 correct. Because they all seemed to be upsets.
Gozanga, Arizona and Texas out.

Still hoping for the cinderella at the ball to go thru til the end at midnight.

Didn't realize he was on the leaderboard with 10 correct. Thanks for the update on who got high enough on the list to actually win a prize.

Just reading back the posts, so it seems buwaytress actually got the most points from all of us but only got $20 usdt from that (you mentioned in Sportsbet main thread)?

So we all who got so few points got more than you, but in the form of a freebet Smiley

Of course, it still does not mean it is more worth to lose because if you end up being 2nd spot with few others, your share could be bigger.

My selections --> .-.

Now on to the next round...
Sweet Sixteen time!
Here are my predictions for tomorrow evening:
Gonzaga Bulldogs and Under 154.5
Villanova Wildcats and Under 135.5
Duke Blue Devils and Over 136.5
Arizona Wildcats and Under 145.5
Saint Peter's Peacocks and Over 137.5
Kansas Jayhawks and Under 141.5
North Carolina Tar Heels and Over 141.5
Miami Hurricanes and Over 134.5

I put together a betslip but it is quite late so I'll put it up tomorrow before or after the games play.

For those who haven't entered in for round 2, you have about 16 hours left until they close the competition to enter.
It is under the 4-3-free so why not?!

I also got a $50 USDT free bet as I had 8 points but ended up losing it on a parlay that lost on the first leg while the rest of legs won which is annoying.  Lips sealed

Anyway, I went with mostly the overs for this round as it feels like the safest bet when most of the top-seeded teams have been dropping 70-80 points.

Out of the 8 games I only have Duke and UNC as the underdogs. Hopefully one of them hits so I could have a chance at the top 3. 

Gonzaga Bulldogs(Over 154.5) - Arkansas Razorbacks
Villanova Wildcats(Over 135.5 - Michigan Wolverines
Duke Blue Devils(Over 136.5) - Texas Tech Red Raiders
Arizona Wildcats(Over 145.5) - Houston Cougars
Purdue Boilermakers(Over 137.5) - Saint Peter's Peacocks
Kansas Jayhawks(Over 141.5) - Providence Friars
UCLA Bruins - North Carolina Tar Heels(Over 141.5)
Miami Hurricanes(Over 134.5) - Iowa State Cyclones

Duke is the underdog in this game?  I'd take that bet all day, tech is good but definitely beatable they have a lock down defense but duke plays well against good d.  That over us scary though since tech plays a slow drag out game.  Gonna check this out though first time seeing it

That’s what I was thinking yesterday when I saw the lines for Thursday and Friday’s games. I have Duke in the Championship game facing off versus Arizona. I think the Dukies are primed to bust their ass as hard as possible for the final game of coach K.  Here’s my elite Eight and final four .. right now I’m actually doing pretty well. I have a legit shot to win it all out of about 60-70 people I think.

Your correct Trofo it is worth it to take part since you have nothing really to lose for putting in your picks just so many already do across the world.
Received the free bet from my place from last week and will put in my picks for round 2 tomorrow and might even put in a multi-bet on a couple of games too.
There has got to be an upset in there somewhere and just wondering if Saint Peters will continue to go on through this round.

Well done leea, put all your freebets to good use. No point using it on anything less than 2x IMO, I know it's dumb as I throw them away on specials anyway BUT I snagged a pretty decent 3x last night so it kinda makes up and it's free anyhow.
I just realized that this is actually the best promo ever. You are almost guaranteed to get 50$ Free Bet if you just enter. Places 4-10 pay out that and places are shared. You just need to get a couple of correct picks to break that barrier.

So making my picks now and copying them from another punter. Hopefully this one is better than the one I used last time Smiley

Hi everyone. I normally discuss this on the discussion rev thread but it seems there is one just for NCAA here.

I very happily found out that I got a USDT reward from the Sportsbet Multi Master contest. I only got 6 points but I guess that even qualifies for 4-10th prize which is 50 USDT Smiley

Nothing more to spend it on except Internationals, but I hope to get better with Sweet Sixteen. As Trofo says, good luck bastardos!
