No you aren't putting any money out of pocket to begin with, but you're leaving money on the table you could have by making ill-informed predictions. That makes me think that they could separate out the higher accuracy users data on another site (like sportsbetting as mentioned in the post) and monetize there. Again, not sure if they are doing that, but it wouldn't surprise me if they were.

It seems like the more money that people have on the line, the better they are at picking the right answers. Since this doesn't cost anything if you are wrong, it would make me suspect that sportsbook would be a better place to turn to if you wanted to know who was going to win the playoffs.
