Easiest March Madness Contest Ever

[Ringo]

Last year I only picked 42 out of 63 right (sucks) and still tied for top 25 and won $462. This year Intertops is making it even easier to pick all 63 correct by allowing your picks up to the start of 2nd round. WOW
Last year Intertops required $50 in wagers during contest to qualify. This year it is $100. AWESOME because that means there will be less players in it again.
To show how lucky I am, Intertops sent me a free $14 on Valentines day with a $3000 playthrough. OOps I bet max 1st spin and won $16 more now $30 and managed to cash out for $60 of the max $70.
Now I redeposit that $60 still in my quicktender and get a 20% bonus worth $12. With my $72, I will bet $30 on both sides of a game and lose $2.73. I will then bet $20 on both sides of a game and lose $1.82.
I will then have qualified for the contest with $100 in wagers and still have $67.45 of my $60 deposit. I will then wager carefully during the
contest only under the total bets which win 80% of the time in March Madness contests.

Think about what I just said: They are allowing picks up to the second round so everyone gets the first 32 picks correct. That means that if no one picks all 63 correct, the $25k will be split among the top 25 plus TIES.
There are going to be soo many ties this year I think. I predict a 100 way tie this year for $250 each.
I will take that.

I really shouldn't be telling any of you this secret, but I love you all at NDN forum and hope to see a few of you get in the money with me.




How to play: The March Madness Bracket entry form contains spaces for Intertops customers to designate their selections for the winning team of every game in the 2011 NCAA Men’s College Basketball tournament starting March 17th, 2011 EXCLUDING THE FOUR FIRST ROUND GAMES ON MARCH 15th and 16th 2011.
Enter the contest by picking one (winning) team in each of sixty-three (63) bracket spaces for the tournament, and by completing the other requested information. Once all the information is complete, click on the “Submit” button. After confirming your entry you will be entered in the promotion. Customers can enter their bracket selections from March 14th (after the announcement of the bracket) up to the start of the second round games on March 17th. To allow us to open the contest as early as possible, we will enter all the teams of the First Round games separated by a slash into our bracket. It is the customer’s own responsibility to check who won those games.

Restrictions: The March Madness Bracket is only for registered Intertops.com customers. Only one competition entry per household /e-mail /IP will be accepted. The customer may modify his entry up to the entry cut-off time. The last version of a customer’s entry will be the valid entry. You have to place bets in our sportsbook worth at least $100 accumulated between March 14th and March 31st to be eligible for the contest!

Prize structure: We will pay out $25,000 main prize to a customer with a valid competition entry containing 63 correct picks. Should more than one customer have a valid competition entry containing 63 correct picks, then the $25,000 prize will be equally divided among all verified winners. If no player manages to select a “perfect bracket”, the prize money will be divided equally amongst the 25 players with the highest number of correct picks. Should more than one player have the same amount of picks as the player ranked 25th, then these players will also be added to those eligible for the prize money.

THE BRACKET WILL BE OPEN FROM MARCH 14th!

helpful tip when betting both sides of a game:
No 1/2 points, so you have a chance to tie

Sorry I am mistaken about 32 picks correct 1st round.
Looks like they changed the tourney format abit and now have 4 1st round games. Silly
