Has anybody gotten hire than 3 in a row in this thing?

I swear, the fact that they give you 7 different matchups a night should make this thing a breeze, but I can't seem to get past 3 in a row.

27 in a row bags you $1,000,000 (before taxes).

Seriously, does ANYBODY other than me do this thing?

I'm at 4 right now!

It's probably the easiest way to make $1 million dollars...

EDIT: Typo, I was at 4.

I've thought about it, but haven't officially tried it yet.

Thanks to Northern Iowa beating Missouri State, I'm at five.

22 away from $ 1 mill

If you bet $10 on a game and kept letting it ride until you got to 27 in a row, you'd have like a trillion dollars. This isn't easy.

So the guy that won the mil, he should feel like a pretty big dumbass for not winning 1.34 tril right?

It's sort of different... Namely, you don't ever pay and can't stop halfway through and still win big bucks, but in a way, yeah, he could feel like a dumbfuck.

Well, in real life, it's not like the guy signed up one day, started making picks and got to 25 no problem. He probably got the first one wrong, then got four in a row right, then 3 in a row wrong, etc, etc.. I'm kind of shocked anyone even got to 25 is all, it's that hard to do. They do make most things a "pickem" though, usually only if the line's real small, but if there's a game on ESPN that night, they almost always put it on there as a pick even if the line's really 4 or 5. Makes it easier.

Yeah, but knowing now what he could have known then (has anyone texted him about the 1.34 tril?) I'd say he wishes he would have spotted $10 5 or 10 times.
