Message: [QUOTE="Tenspro2002, post: 4945698, member: 889"] Geometrically. You're in for 50 to win 5775. I already estimated that your equity is around 400. Iowa is -142 vs. the women on Friday. 1) If you bet 284 on Iowa -142, you're in for 334 to win 484 (+150) if Iowa wins. Then consider the men on Saturday, where Alabama is +500. 2) If you bet 100 on Bama +500, you're in for 434 to win 600 (+166) if Bama wins. Then we're back to the women on Sunday, where South Carolina would probably be -400 against us, NC State probably +100. This gets tricky. 3) Here you could bet either 2000 on SC or 500 on NC State. In the former scenario, you're in for 2434 to win 2500 (+66) or in the latter, 934 to win 1000 (+66). Then we're back to the men on Monday. Purdue would be +200 against us. NC State like +600. 4) If you bet 1500 on Purdue, you'd be in for 3934 or 2434 to win 4500 (+566 or +2066) or 5775 (+1841 or +3341). On NC State, if you go 500, you're in for 2934 or 1434 to win 3500 (+566 or +2066) or 5775 (+2841 or +4341). So it depends strongly on who advances, but you can create your own playbook to guarantee a payout. You could even hedge more in the earlier games but leave less of a payout at the end, it's up to you. P.S. You should (almost) never ever ever ever take a cashout. Do the math and create your own hedge. It's cheaper. [/QUOTE]
