Anyone else playing this?
I just started this week. Lost my first matchup when I said UNC/Clemson would combine for 163 points or less and they score... 164. So far 1-3...

The leaderboards are impressive with the leaders picking nearly .700 and 60 wins so far this month.
I really underestimated how amazing it was for that guy to actually get 27 in a row and win the million.

I'm doing it...until now (right now I'm at 5 straight) I hadn't be able to get past 3 in a row...I'm trying to pick less and be patient...

It definitely gets me more interested in games I might necessarily care about...

not to be confused with the "streak for the cash" contest that I sponsor on certain weekends with the neighborhood co-eds..... ;op

Just joined this month and I'm now 10-11 after winning my last two. I have found it best to be patient and not necessarily go with the crowd. Especially when its better than 90% for one team. I think most of my wins have come from picking against those.

This game is great....best streak I've had so far is 9. However, now that football is over, I don't see much chance of hitting that 27, cause I'm just a casual observer of NBA, and college b-ball (until the tournament of course!)

gonna start my streak with Dodgers win over the A's.

If the Mets-O's ends soon enough, that'll be my next pick.

I still play all the time but my overall record is always around .500.

Currently 48-44-3. Trick I've finally figured out: when there is the choice of over/under a certain number of goals for soccer, always, ALWAYS choose the one with the lower percentage of people picking. I have literally lost every time I go with the majority.

My longest streak since they reset everything last has been only 5... but I've done it twice!!

Got a PUSH for the golf tournament this morning.
Lost the Egypt vs. Italy choice.
Picking Albert Pujols to get more bases than Miguel Cabrera tonight. xprayx
edit: Pujols isn't even in the starting lineup tonight. How is that fair? I'm stuck with him now.
