    MaREC Madness 2022 Predictions

    Posted by taylormaas on February 14, 2022 at 8:33 am

    Hi Everyone!

    MaREC Madness is back for its second year. This year, we have expanded the bracket from 8 players to 16 and invited some RECing crew members and some home game winners to take on the core RecPoker team. Each matchup will be broadcast during our normal Twitch Thursday streams throughout March, which you can watch for free at twitch.tv/RecPoker

    You can also make your predictions for the brackets (cause what fun would a MaREC Madness bracket be if you couldn’t make predictions!). All you need to do is go to (https://bracket.rec.poker) and fill out your bracket. It’s way more intuitive and easy to fill out than our prior versions (Thanks PokerGeekMN!). Then when you have your bracket filled out, just post your results in THIS thread for your chance to win prize(s)!

    Our MaREC Madness schedule is:

    Thursday March 3: (special early start) 7:30 pm CST — 4 first round matchups

    Thursday March 10: (special early start) 7:30 pm CST — 4 first round matchups

    Thursday March 17: (special early start) 7:30 pm CST — 4 second round matchups

    Thursday March 24: 8:00 pm CST — 2 semi-final matchups

    Thursday March 31: 8:00 pm CST — Best of 3 Finals

    In order to keep my incentives all aligned, I had to pick me as the overall victor. Not sure that’s where the smart money should go though.

    I may need to update my picks. Second time heads-up with a 2-1 lead that I lost. Obviously, my heads-up game sucks. So, my money is on Kekgeek65.
