Title: Any interest NCAA Bracket Contest? .1 BTC entry fee and a sportsbook will escrow Post by: Rating Place on March 17, 2015, 05:52:06 AM Anyone have any interest in a Bracket Contest? We can hold it here http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/tournament/bracket. I'll set up a league with a first place prize 80% and second 20%.
I'm sure a book will agree to escrow the funds. It would be fun if players and books entered. If there is interest just post "in". If we get enough I'll ask a book to hold the funds.

I'm fine with any amount .01-.1, assuming multiple brackets are allowed.

We need 8 more.

Is it like the person to get maximum picks correct will win it ? Each round has escalating points for correct picks (1 in the first round, 2 in the next round, 4 in the next round, ect). You fill it out completely before the tournament starts (Thursday morning), whoever has the most points at the end of the tournament wins.
