Slug Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 The dust has settled, the games have all been played and the results are in! Time to do the maths for the final time and crown our new champ! ########## SUPER BOWL RESULTS ########## Super Bowl: Kansas City Chiefs (-3.5) at Tampa Bay BuccaneersThe Tampa Bay Buccaneers route the Kansas City Chiefs by a score of 31-5.5(9-3.5) to win the first ever winners of a home-hosted Super Bowl and to add another ring to Tom Brady's collection. QUESTIONS 1) What will be the first scoring play of the Feature Game? Chiefs TD, Chiefs FG, Chiefs safety, Buccaneers TD, Buccaneers FG, Buccaneers safety, or other? ($10,000 for the correct call)In the first quarter Butker hit a nice 49 yard field goal to put the Chiefs up 3-0 for the first score of the game. Little did they know what was to follow. Biggie was the only players to call this one correctly. 2) What will be the final scoring play of the Feature Game? Chiefs TD, Chiefs FG, Chiefs safety, Buccaneers TD, Buccaneers FG, Buccaneers safety, or other? ($10,000 for the correct call)The Bucs' Ryan Succop tacked on a completely unnecessary 52 yard field goal in the 3rd to finish off this drubbing. BasemntDweller2 was the only player to hit on this one. 3) Which quarter will be the highest scoring of the Super Bowl? ($8,000 for the right answer)The 17 points scored in the 2nd quarter were the most, with 10 coming in the first and 13 in the 3rd. BasemntDweller2 and Keyser_Soze were the only players to get this right. 4) Let them play! How many penalties will be assessed, in total, during the game? ($15,000 a correct guess)KC was hit with 11 penalties to Tampa's 4 and was a big factor in the direction this game took. 15 is the call. Nobody guessed this correctly. 5) What will the combined score be at the end of each quarter? Give us 4 scores, corresponding in order to the four quarters. You will win the Q5 cash for EACH correct answer. See my example answer below if you are confused. ($15,000 per correct score)1st: 10, 2nd: 27, 3rd: 40, 4th: 40BasemntDweller2 and Biggie called the 1st quarter score and AbsolutSurgen nailed the 3rd. ######### FINAL LEADERBOARD ######### @BasemntDweller2 - $500,400 Slug - $177,000@Biggie - $40,000@ManUtdRedDevils - $35,500@Commissar SFLUFAN - $29,750@AbsolutSurgen - $15,000@Keyser_Soze - $8,000@Alpha1Cowboy - $4,800@Greatoneshere - $2,900@Kal-El814 - $2,700@Dodger - $1,500@thewhyteboar - $0 If you think I mathed wrong, let me know. ############################### Despite giving everyone a chance with an all-in bet on the underdog, BasemntDweller2 comes out on top as your 2020-21 Mock Gambling Thread Champion! Holding a commanding lead throughout the latter part of the season, Base hit the gas in the playoffs and never looked back. With little threat to his crown he made it sporting by risking it all on the Super Bowl but was rewarded when the Buccaneers (and the refs) took the Chiefs to task, doubling his position and cementing his place in the MGT record books as the first two-time champion of the D1P edition of the competition! ########## CHAMPIONS ########## 2019 - BasemntDweller2 2020 - AbsolutSurgen 2021 - BasemntDweller2 ############################### Congratulations to BasemntDweller2!
