Tonight at Hindsight

The cast swept the room

The Bookie: “The book swept the room — 8/11, 21 pts. The house doesn't get lucky. The house gets paid.”

Hindsight: “Top of the board: @The_Creator, 8/11 for 19 pts with The Mathematician.”

The Bookie: “8/11, 21 pts. Some nights you write the line, some nights the line writes you.”

The Bookie: “Top house score: 8/11 for 21 pts. Somebody has to keep standards up.”

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.

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.
