Input Requested for Pool Scoring
This is for the NBA playoffs, but not dependent on the NBA playoffs (so any 7-game series knowledge for any sport is all you need).
A friend is running an NBA Playoff Pool, with the following scoring:
-10 points for every correct GAME prediction
-bonus 2 points for correct SERIES prediction
-minus 3 points an incorrect game prediction
Is it just me, or does this seem flawed? Why wouldn't I pick a 4-3 outcome for every series, as long as I pick the team I think will win to have the 4 games. Isn't the expected value the greatest if I do it this way?
