Tonight at Hindsight

An underdog paid out tonight

The Bookie: “I had the other side at CHW +124. @ppeterson took it anyway. I hate this job.”

The Bookie: “2/3 on the night and I still lose on points. Confidence is a tax you people don't pay.”

Hindsight: “@ppeterson takes it — 2/3 with Pitching first, 11 pts.”

Bandwagon: “@ppeterson beat all of us?? Fine. I'm a @ppeterson fan now. Always have been.”

How scoring works

Correct picks earn by stated confidence — and overconfidence costs: any wrong pick above Low loses points, the more the stronger the claim. A Low pick is the honest “pass”: worth a little when right, free when wrong.

Lock +10 / -12High +6 / -6Med +2 / -1Low +1 / 0

Predicted ties score 0 and tied games are excluded. Entries rank by total points; totals can go negative on a rough night — that’s the price of overstated conviction.
