The Greg Peterson ExperienceCBB2023-03-12Do not bet individual games the same way you play your bracket pool. With individual bets you are putting your money on the line, but bracket strategy is to try and win the pool so you can take more risk.
The HandleCBB2023-03-12Shop around for futures prices during the NCAA Tourney. Liability at different books can dramatically impact their odds. Ex: Duke’s championship odds range from 18/1 to 35/1.
The Lombardi LineCBB2023-03-12Don't get too crazy betting longshots to win the NCAA Tournament. Only two teams have won the NCAA tournament at 25/1 odds or longer entering Rd 1 since at least 1975. The last five NCAA Champs entered Rd 1 at shorter than 10/1.
The Lombardi LineCBB2023-03-12Take note of specific teams you're looking to fade or back in the tournament and focus in on their matchups first when the bracket is revealed. Don't try to bet it all at once, be selective.
