With the state of P v T at the moment in Korea (terran getting rolled), this isn't really the wisest bet. However, I'll take it anyway! Heart, MMA and MKP all have good chances of getting in. I'd put it at about <2% chance that none of them get through. I agree - I'm just saying that the current metagame would suggest betting your life on terrans beating 2 protosses isn't very wise - though I guess the caliber of these players is just so much higher then Ace/Killers that the bet is very tempting. The caliber of these players doesn't matter, especially in a bo1, and even in a TvT it would be stupid to bet your life because anything can happen, see GoOdy beating MMA LOL. Well, kinda depends on what's your breaking point for 1bil vs your life. For most people 75% chance might be tempting enough. And with with 3 terran, The chance of at least 1 making through is 80% even if every match is 50-50 split. Yeah, but if this was for real i doubt so many people would vote for the money. lol I doubt most people would take a 1/4 chance of die instantly (oh well, most people are dumb, so maybe I'm wrong here). However. I don't see any real situation happen, where no terran gets out of this group, so in this case, I would take the bet. 1 Bil is A LOT of money. Basically you never work another day and can buy everything except Dodgers kind of money. US Government agency such as FDA and EPA value human life at around 8mil. lol...pathetic There is no logic here. Take in account that society is so fcked up, a human life in Africa is 800 $ while Paris Hilton thinks her life cant be measured in value. Actually u also have to take into account that this world is basically just ethnically wrong to begin with.
Besides ethical, there are good reason to put a value on human life. For example, how much security is reasonable at airport? How much funding should go to medical research? What should be the fire code for construction? What should be the speed limit? How much tax to put on alcohol, tobacco product?
Bring the topic back though, I'm taking tomorrow's work off just so I can watch this group (well, that and I get four days off combined with Memorial day is really nice).

I just realised - it just says that if you lose you die. It doesn't say when. I will die anyway. Therefore it makes sense to vote for the Terrans every time. By that logic you become immortal. If you don't lose you don't die, if you don't die you're immortal. Yay.
I don't want to be immortal. That would be boring as shit.

I bet with the money you'll have you can even find a way to die.

If you win, it doesn't say when you get your 1 billion either. Could be the day before you die.

sure but that still doesnt mean you can afford to kill people and pay 8 million $ to the government for each taken soul, because they "cost" that much.
Maybe..... just maybe someone out of this world will punish you in the afterlife xD

Group of death.
I wouldn't be surprised if Heart makes it through and MMA doesn't.

I agree.. group of death.. but only thing for sure is MKP wins group.. he is too damn good not too. anyone else can make it out except killer.

If anyone other than MKP and MMA advance it will be a biiiig upset.
my thoughts exactly, but b4 has the capability to upset, and so has Killer lately (look at ipl tac) and heart is playing phenomenal lately.
I dunno man, this is going to be a rough night for terran fans =(

I see what you did there, it's a trick question. It didn't specifically say 1 billion what, just vaguely 1 billion.
