BB, I don't know if you have covered all of the possibilities

I really can't see anyone else besides Ohio State and MSU fighting for the title. It might be possible for TSUN to slide in for a tie but they are just too inconsistent. I think the last game of the season when we have to go to Spartyland might decide the championship.

 

[MaxBuck]

Free money. Buckeyes FTW - by their lonesome.

I had given up on vbetting. Then I saw this one. Can't pass up a sure thing, even if it is worthless.

Good call.

PS: Don't I win since OSU got a share of the title? Or did I have to pick all 3?

 

[DZ83CK]

It looks like you did have to predict a 3-way tie to win. Lame.

Yeah, it really sucks that you have to actually make the right pick to win the vbet.

11 vBillion happily down the drain for me today!

Regarding your comment - that's why the correct prediction was worth 24-1 odds. Anybody that was foresightful enough to have placed vCash on that outcome would have been very pleased today. Line 1 clearly stated that only 1 line would pay out.

Also, I spent a fair amount of time creating it. If you don't like it, that's too bad. But, putting it nicely, I don't appreciate your calling it lame.

I know it took a lot of time to put it together, but sometimes simpler is better & I think this was one of those times.

In the end nobody won - is that what you were hoping for when you put it together?

Someone mad

You do know that this isn't real money, correct?

Yeah - that'll make him feel better when v-goons break his knees for missing the vig to his v-loan shark...

You vbet, you vlost. The important thing is the Buckeyes won.

Yeah, clearly that was my goal. That's why I bet 11 vBillion myself - I was sure that nobody would win.

I have a suspicion that if you had been prescient enough to place some vCash on the 3-way tie at 24-1, you'd have a real appreciation for the complexity of the way the vBet was constructed.
