Did I read Kalshi given 1 billion for a Perfect Bracket?

[jjgold]

Has that ever been done before?

 

[Ace7550]

No, and no one has ever gotten a perfect bracket. Much much better chances of winning the lottery.
odds of a perfect bracket are somewhere in the 1 in a trillion range

Why would anyone who is allowed to use Kashi in their state not be eligible for the bracket itself??

These are not contracts or financial instruments being traded.

There is no yes no and a counterparty that takes.

This is a non-wager marketing promotion and has its own set of separate rules separate from financial trading.

What’s the closest anyone ever came to a perfect bracket??

It’s literally impossible.

It’s literally impossible.

I think the record is 49 consecutive wins, done in 2019.

Odds are little long on hitting it...
9.2 quintillion possible brackets.

Looks more impressive when you show the entire number.
9,223,372,036,854,775,808

Tough to calculate exactly because it's not all coin flips. But yeah, very big number

yeah.... You could probably make a good estimate by throwing out all DD spreads and then come up with a number. That would be more reasonable.

 

[canuckg]

Could offer 10 trillion. Doesnt matter.

 

[DiggityDaggityDo]

I can probably do it with my new calculator.

True

It’s the one lottery that will never be hit
