Top 5 Picks: March Madness Bracket

Welcome to March Madness. For the next few days, in businesses around the nation, people will be filling out brackets in hopes of winning the office pool on the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament.
We’re not going to pretend this is rocket science. (Like it or not, many of these pools will be won by those who have not watched a single college basketball game this season.)
Nevertheless, as in the many things in life that require investment on upside potential, there are a few tricks of the trade that may offer some bracketology advantages. We like winners. We like Cindarellas. Most of all, we like taking home the money – so read on.
1. Start off with the end-game: The most basic principle is that winners tend to win. The odds that a Cindarella takes home the championship are quite long. Since 2000, only three of the 36 teams to make it to the Final Four were ranked higher than a five seed. In fact, here’s a bar chart that shows what seeds have made it to the Final Four this decade:
Obviously, the top seeds stand a pretty good chance of getting to the Final Four. Most people who will win their pools will be conservative on the end-game, having a healthy share of top seeds advancing all the way through to the end.
2. Structure in some risk threshold: Obviously, those who are filling out their brackets with a lot of top seeds advancing all the way to the end will be going with the large majority. If you pick no upsets, you will largely need to get everything correct to win the big prize. Getting everything right is itself against the odds. That’s not a good plan for success.
Instead, we encourage risk-taking, particularly at the beginning of a tournament and especially in cases where an office poll incentivizes upset picks.
Consider the following scenario: Ten matchups, each where the underdog has a 40% chance of winning.
If you pick the underdog in each of these matchups, odds say you should win 2 of 5 games.
If your competitor picks the favorite in each of these matchups, odds say he or she should win 3 of the 5 games.
But what if you get 1 point for a win and an extra point for an upset?
The result would be that your 2 upset wins merit 4 points while your competitor’s 3 wins merit just 3 points.
Now, how can you achieve the end-game goal as described in Step 1 with adding some short-term upside risk described here in Step 2? Consider the following theoretical bracket:
From above, you will see that we picked a lot of upsets, including an 13 seed beating a 4 seed, a 12 seed beating a 5 seed, a 9 seed beating an 8 seed, an 13 seed beating a 12 seed. Yet, in the end, the top seed triumphs. We’re not suggesting you do it exactly this way. But depending on point incentives of your bracket pool, it may pay to be both risky and have insurance.
3. It’s Cindarella Time: OK, so how do you recognize a good upset in the making? Based on a regression analysis, some factors correlate to big, big upsets on the balancing scale:
High adjusted offensive and defensive efficiencies. Low turnover percentages. High offensive rebound percentages.
Five teams that factor high in these things are #11 VCU (facing UCLA in Round1), #13 Akron (facing Gonzaga), #11 Temple (facing Arizona State), #12 Western Kentucky (facing Illinois) and shockingly, #15 Morgan State (facing Oklahoma)
4. The Strongest Survive: We’re back to the beginning. After picking the upsets, and keeping the top seeds, we’re down to the giants in the Final Four. Most bracket winners will have at least two of these teams and will pick the ultimate winner.
One strong factor correlating to ultimate success is the ability to score, and score often. Twenty of the past twenty-three titles have been won by teams who score 77+ PPG and have a scoring margin of 10+ PPG in the regular season.
Want to know the buzz? We’ve analyzed Google News, the blogosphere, and Twitter since the tournament brackets were announced and here’s a word cloud that viaualizes 2009 champion hype:
5. Making the Challenge: If you are looking for a place to challenge your friends and co-workers, CBS Sportsline is the home of March Madness. Good luck on the games!

Sports Betting How To Use Systems To Win More Bet
March 28, 2009
Karl Aage Isaksen asked:
Introduction
Sports betting is the easiest form of gambling to pursue. Sports betting is the universal action of predicting sports results by making a wager on the outcome of a sporting event. Betting Sport is a billion dollar industry and it’s something that you as a gambler will want to understand if you don’t already.
Sports betting is just as old as sports itself. Betting on sports is not as hard as many people think. Professional gamblers seem to make a good living on sports bet, but there are very few of them
But amateur better can also make good money on betting, if the know how..
Betting
Betting on sporting events legally requires opening an account with a sportsbook maker (referred to simply as a bookmaker in the UK), a spread betting firm or a betting exchange. Betting More Cash Than a Player Can Afford to Lose, One of ‘the’ biggest goofs any gambler can make is to wager more money than he or she is prepared to lose. so a reminder is NEVER BET MORE THAN YOU CAN AFFORD TO LOSE.
Bookmakers
Bookmakers generally offer two types of wagers on the winner of a sporting event: a straight up or money line bet, or a point spread wager. Bookmakers always pay particular attention to the bets of a professional sports gambler, commonly known within the industry as a “sharp” or “wiseguy.
Bookmakers opinions will always vary, Sports Books around the globe will always need to balance their books differently, Most sports bettors are overall losers as the bookmakers odds are fairly efficient. But setting it all to system you can change that, and win money.
Legal sports bookmakers do exist throughout the world possibly most notably in Las Vegas. Most people believe that many bookmakers will adjust their prices so that they get the same amount of money on both sides of a game. That is not quid true, However, some bookmakers are willing to take more risk and attempt to maximize their bottom line.
Odds
Betting odds are set by the bookmaker, for each individual game, in advance. Oddeset stands for sports betting on fixed odds, the punters do not compete on each other, but directly with the company. Odds are given where the favourites will pay less than double your bet and underdogs would pay more than double.
Online
Online gaming is a multi-billion dollar industry, when betting on sports, you are able to view online sports betting lines for your favourite sports teams in action all year round to help build your sports betting bankroll.
The people who think online sports betting are easy, are mistaken. Online betting many times can be a novice bettor’s best friend: New bettors feel more comfortable in the privacy of their own home placing bets than in a public atmosphere. Online sports betting is not only about horse betting or UK football betting.
Systems
Systems supposedly allow the gambler to have an edge. Using systems when betting can raise your
winning chance much.
Winning
Winning at sport betting, or any other type of gambling, is not all about luck. To win at sports betting, though it takes the aforementioned skill, is not as difficult as it may seem. When winning 8 out of 10 bet isn’t bad. And can be done with system betting, there are systems that have a winning percent of 95% to 97%.
Conclusion
Sports betting is easy to do, and if you enjoy watching sports anyways, it could add to the fun of supporting your favorite team. Sports betting are huge around the world and it is especially popular at offshore sportsbooks. Sports’ betting is one of those rare instances in the world of gaming where the smart player can tip the odds in his or her favour

karim ali asked:
We personally promise that you will make a profit using our NBA Betting System in conjunction with our selections or we will refund 100% of your money. That’s how confident we are about your success.
And to make things even better, we have included 2 FREE bonuses that will make your sports betting even more profitable than you ever imagined. Plus if you decide to open your betting account with one of our 6 recommended sportsbooks, your sign up bonuses alone will not only pay for the entire cost of our NBA Betting System, but make you a very nice profit even before you make your first bet.
THIS MAKES PURCHASING OUR AMAZING NBA BETTING SYSTEM 100% RISK FREE!
NOTE: IF YOU’RE NOT COMFORTABLE WITH USING YOUR CREDIT CARD ON-LINE, WE WILL GLADLY ACCEPT A PERSONAL CHECK, MONEY ORDER, WESTERN UNION, or MONEY GRAM FOR YOUR PURCHASE! AS SOON AS WE RECEIVE YOUR PAYMENT WE WILL EMAIL YOU INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO DOWNLOAD OUR NBA BETTING SYSTEM.
WHO WE ARE:
Over 10 years ago, the “Worlds Greatest NBA Betting System” was developed by 3 retired NBA players, 2 retired NBA referees and 1 Mathematical genius. This system is so accurate, it has produced 1496 consecutive selection wins. This NBA Betting System is a profit generating, money making machine, and has made all 6 of us multimillionaires. After 9 years of keeping the system secret, we agreed to share this Amazing NBA Betting System with the public.
Our unique betting system currently only works for the NBA. It does not work for College Basketball, Major League Baseball, NFL Football, College Football, or any other sport at this time. However, we have developed the “Worlds Greatest MLB Betting System” that wins a staggering 97.2% of the time. This system produced 55 winners and only 1 loser last season. And its yours absolutely FREE! When you purchase our NBA Betting System Today!
Anyone who buys our system and follows it exactly, will make enough money to quit their job if they so desire or just make a comfortable extra income. You can literally make as much money as you want and you won’t have to worry about what to bet on or how to make money after the NBA season is over! The money you can make with our system in just one season is truly mind-blowing! And when you add our baseball system in the mix, you have 10 straight winning months betting on what we all love, SPORTS. Next year we will be offering an NFL system in our package that is also 100% accurate and has not lost once in over 22 years! (Wait till you see this one!)
And this package comes with our 100% Money Back Guarantee. This means you can take full advantage of the “Worlds Greatest NBA Betting System” 100% RISK FREE !
THE RUB:
Just to be upfront, and not to insult your intelligence, our amazing record of 1496 consecutive selection wins in a row, is not based on individual games. It would be mathematically impossible to win 1496 individual games without a loss. However, we have won 1496 consecutive selections in a row without losing even once in 10 years! Our selections consist of a series of 3 games. Here’s the breakdown. On average we win game#1 62% of the time, game#2 87% of the time and yes it’s true, WE HAVE NEVER LOST A GAME#3 IN ANY SERIES IN OVER 10 YEARS!
The bottom line is, you will make a ton of money with our system and our selections, we personally guarantee it! And on December 1st of this year, we have just introduced a brand new system which does not require you to “buy points”.
Plus we do not just give out the selections for you to bet. Our entire staff bets on each and every selection we give to our members!
Although we have discussed it several times before and decided against it, it was not until two years ago that we decided to offer our selections to the general public and share our amazing system for a fair price.
The only thing that we owe you, and the only thing that really matters is that we have represented ourselves and our system honestly and with integrity, and that you win the kind of money that we have stated and promised you would win.
You must bet only the teams that we give you. Should you decide to bet on other games and other teams we can not insure that you will have a profitable NBA season. You must have the patience, diligence and fortitude to wager on the games only as we have given them to you. If you play other so-called “LOCK” games or hunches YOU WILL LOSE!
FAIR WARNING! The “WORLDS GREATEST NBA BETTING SYSTEM” is THE ORIGINAL, AND THE ONLY BETTING SYSTEM THAT HAS NEVER LOST. Play Other INFERIOR systems at your own RISK!
IS THIS A SCAM? (Gee we haven’t been asked that before)
Absolutely not.

Every single claim we make is 100% factual and when you buy our system you will see why.

Plus, we have thousands of very happy members (read a few of their testimonials) Look, if this wasn’t the real deal don’t you think someone somewhere would have said or posted something negative.

jeffery s asked:
I have been handicapping the major sports(baseball, football, basketball, hockey) for 16 years. I’ve done this for myself as well as friends and family. My main questions are how to get past the “black eye” that alot of handicappers have put on the industry? How to get the word out about the service? I have the prices for the services figured up but just don’t wont to just do this half-way and look unprofessional. Even thought about offering “free picks” to get the service going but not sure yet. Any help regarding these issues would be very much appreciated.

Online Betting UK – Arizona at Philadelphia
March 27, 2009
Online Betting UK asked:
Las Vegas Sports Consultants opened Philadelphia (5-5-1 straight up, 6-5 against the spread) as a 2 ½-point favorite with a total of 47 ½. As of Wednesday afternoon, most books had the Eagles at three (even money) with the total adjusted to 46 ½. The Cardinals are plus-120 on the money line (risk $100 to win $120).
“When we opened Philadelphia at -3 this week, it sent our players’ heads spinning,” said Eddie Franks, the Head Oddsmaker at Brobury Sports. “Already 90% of the action is on the Cardinals, who bring one of the most dynamic offenses week in and week out. But we’re not budging yet. Despite two weeks of shockingly bad performances by McNabb and Co., they have more going for them than players recognize.”

That would be Arizona at Philadelphia, where the Andy Reid-Donovan McNabb Era could be on its last legs.

But we’re not budging yet. Despite two weeks of shockingly bad performances by McNabb and Co., they have more going for them than players recognize.”
Philadelphia is coming off an embarrassing 36-7 loss at Baltimore as a one-point road underdog. Trailing 10-7 at intermission, Reid did what he’d never done before during McNabb’s 10-year career – bench him.
McNabb had completed only 8-of-18 passes for 59 yards in the first half against the Ravens. Most importantly, he had coughed up a fumble and thrown two interceptions.
Arizona (7-4 SU, 7-4 ATS) is accustomed to the type of turmoil hovering over the City of Brotherly Love, but not during this 2008 campaign in which the Cardinals are running away with the NFC West. Despite last week’s 37-29 loss to the Giants, they maintain a four-game lead in the division.
The decision by second-year head coach Ken Whisenhunt to go with veteran Kurt Warner ahead of Matt Leinart as the starting quarterback has turned into a stroke of genius. Warner is enjoying a banner season, completing 69.4 percent of his passes for 3,506 yards with a 21/8 touchdown-interception ratio.
Reid ended speculation that McNabb could be done playing for the Eagles by announcing that he would get the starting nod Monday morning. However, it’s crystal clear that barring an improbable run by the Eagles to make – and then advance in – the playoffs, McNabb’s days in Philadelphia are numbered at the end of this season.
And the same could be the case for Reid as well.
Philadelphia RB Brian Westbrook has been dealing with several different injuries for much of the season. He has missed a pair of games and was downgraded to “questionable” this week when he missed Tuesday’s practice. Westbrook has 760 yards (rushing and receiving) on 171 “touches” for eight TDs.
He has the NFL’s best 1-2 tandem of wide receivers in Larry Fitzgerald and Anquan Boldin. Fitzgerald has 72 receptions for 1,010 yards and six touchdowns. Boldin, who missed two games with a broken jaw, has 73 catches for 879 yards and 11 TDs.
In fairness to McNabb, he has dealt with injuries to several of his top weapons. At various points in the season, WRs Kevin Curtis and Reggie Brown, in addition to TE L.J. Smith, have missed games.
McNabb has a 14/10 TD-INT ratio this year compared to a 185/89 ratio for his career.
“While we don’t expect McNabb to come out firing and light up the field, we do expect a much improved version who will hold onto the ball and manage his offense properly,” Franks told VI. “Much has been said about Reid benching McNabb, but not enough has been said about how this will affect his supporting cast. Reid’s move no doubt was meant to break down the complacency that has plagued this team recently, and we expect that it will be a successful move. McNabb is too seasoned and has rebounded from too many setbacks to not bounce back again.”
Arizona is 3-3 SU and 4-2 ATS on the road. Meanwhile, Philadelphia is 3-2 both SU and ATS at home.
The ‘over’ is 7-4 overall for Arizona, but the ‘under’ is 4-2 in its road games. The ‘over’ is on a 6-2 run for the Cardinals (regardless of venue). The Eagles have watched the ‘under’ go 6-5 overall, 4-1 in their road assignments.
