The first 2 rounds of March Madness have proven to any poker player that skill does matter whether on the court or at the table. For the avid college basketball fan or online poker player the NCAA college finals have been a wild ride in 2005.
Upsets are the name of the game, a David and Goliath scenario. Ever been there? Try it, and you’ll love it if you win. If you decide to venture to Vegas this year for the WSOP 2005 you’ll come across many of these same type scenarios. Well as for the college basketball finals 2005, the pack leaders have emerged and so have some of the best cinderella teams the nation has ever known.
West Virginia, tied for seventh in the Big East this season, will play in the Sweet 16, while the league's top three teams -- Boston College, Connecticut and Syracuse -- will not.The Big 12's regular season co-champions, Kansas and Oklahoma, have been sent home for the summer, while its fourth-place team, Texas Tech, is favored to reach the Great Eight.
Wake Forest, which went 13-3 in the ACC, has bowed out. N.C. State, is this maddening?The overrated Big Ten has as many teams in the Sweet 16 (three) as the ACC. The supposedly underrated SEC has as many as the Horizon League (one).
And all this boils down to skill. The Illini and NC State looking better all the time? Well at the rate of so many upsets this just might not be; however if your enjoying all the smack last minute super power endings as forcing someone else’s bad beat on the river then you my poker playing friend are having the time of your life.
