Faster than expected, but not outrageous. It should have took on average 1,792 unique entries, hit in maybe 600 ?

If it was another site and the posters were unknowns I would be suspicious of foul play. I find it totally amazing that 4 people hit the equivalent of 1 8 team parlay, 1 9 team parlay, and 2 10 team parlays on the SAME day all in less than a week. I'm stunned but very impressed. Congrats guys and good luck in Vegas.

Considering you can play them far after they are released some games had nearly half a run advantage by start time so it makes it a little less hard, still somewhat amazing though. Hell of a contest by skybook.

If each play is a 50% prop, then the odds should be 1 in 1,024. Considering the no juice, sometimes half run advantage you can probably cut that down to maybe 1 in 900. Helluva deal Skybook is offering. If they're giving 10K to the winner then an entry is worth over 10 bucks! Not bad for free.

Odds are infinitely higher when one considers that 8-8.9-9 and 2 posters hit 10-10 in 4 nights ? ... Perhaps I lost count of how many nights but I will tell you right now ... This would never happen again unless We have this contest open to a lot more contestants !

I think you guys are giving Posters too much credit. To pick 8, 9, 10 games and hit is all is mostly Luck, being "sharp" has little to do with it.

It's not like we are even hitting 8 games in a row you LOVE. We were being forced to pick these games and frankly most would have been games we didn't even like.

I'm surprised it happen so quick, as I think a lot of these games were little more than coin flips.

You are correct and I would put the odds on this ever happening again so quick at about 250,000/1 Simply UNBELIEVABLE AND WE WILL NOT SEE THIS HAPPEN AGAIN IN OUR LIFETIME ! IMHO
