View Full Version : I laid down $1600 on Florida winning it all

Not even lying I went to March Madness Calcutta Auction few days ago in my area. The betting on all 68 teams was $21,000 total pot combined. You win if your team advances past the 1st round and the further your team goes the more money you will make. For example the top 1&2 seeds were going for $900-$1,500 per pop. If Florida makes Elite 8 I brake even I losing nothing, if they advance to Final 4 I win $1,500, championship game $2,500, if Florida wins it all I win $3,200. What all does everyone think? Stupid or smart. :pimp:
P.S. I was drunk while I was betting this was at brewery along with free beer and alcohol win/win situation right? The total spent as group like (4-6) people they bet on 3 to 4 teams $2,500 to $3,000 collectively per group as an estimate. I on the other hand rode solo and got the best team for $1,600 in Florida Gators. I'm just curious of what ever one thinks about this decision of mine.

Same as Michigan State in the East. They're 4th seed also.

I think any bet over a certain amount is a dumb bet. If you ever bet so much that you have to worry about whether it's a smart bet, then you ****ed up.

I figured, but thanks for the advise. I guess sometimes some alcohol while chilling with some bro's on top of being in the heat of the moment can do that to you.
u bet on the wrong SEC team

lol, I definitely wouldn't put down much money at this stage of the tournament. Too much crazy shit happens every year. Once the Final 4 rolls around? Yeah, I'd probably be willing to throw down $1.5k on a winner if I like the odds.

Sweet. You can always bet on the other side if you're not feeling confident with any of the last 3 games.

Yes, I win more money per round. If Florida wins tomorrow, I win $1800 so I'll make $200 profit after that $2400 and grand prize being $3200.

Today's the day my friends. The road to National Championship. I've made $200 profit so far if Florida wins today, I win $800 then $1600 if Florida wins on Monday night. I hope these Final Four games are great. Go Gators!!

That fact that so many top seeds fell so early really increased your chances. I felt Arizona would have been their toughest opponent.

This is true. I was also very happy Florida missed out on playing Michigan State. I felt they were terrible matchup for us across the board. In that regard glad Uconn beat them.

If UCONN beats Florida tonight I'll win $200.
Your bet seemed like a high risk, low reward type bet. Unless they win tonight and on Monday of course.

I did a $20 pool with 12 people, $200 for first, $40 for second. I had UCONN making the final four.
