I couldn't bet today because I was at work from before the topic went up to after the match started. Seriously hate these mid-day match times.

Yeah, the blowouts have been really easy to exploit up until now, but now I'm stuck hoping GoW can cover, and it looks like a lot of others are doing so for Fallout as well.

I'd be pretty shocked if TLOU can't even get over 80%.

My initial thought on the match was that Crusader Kings II would struggle to get 20% on the majority of the bracket. The type of game that makes legendary blowouts possible. I mean, it's a PC-only strategy game...

I was way too confident in Diablo with my Oracle pick and I thought it was a sure-fire lock to cover this spread.

I think it still has a chance to barely cover if the day crowd favors it but that's probably wishful thinking.

It looks like it's gonna do it. Over the past 5 hours it's gone from 67.64% to 68.85%! If it does this is one of the all time great Spread chases. From 12 points down at the freeze, 4 points down after the first hour...

In sports betting hitting dead on the spread would be considered a push, meaning no one wins and everyone gets their money back.

It's why most spreads involve half a point, so that the situation is not possible.

I'm interpreting this rule:

If you bet on BotW, it would have to beat TOW by 40%, meaning it would have to get at least 70% of the vote (70-30 = 40). If you bet on TOW (+40) it needs to score at least 30.01% of the vote (69.99 - 30.01 = 39.98) to keep the difference in percentage, or spread, within 40 points.

I've played this game a few times over the years - even won it once! - and never have I seen a scenario where a ton of money has been on the line with such a close spread so late on that we're discussing this.
