Another way to split the pot this year

:NFL: Commissioner Issue

Sleeper provided a % chance to win in the match up before game was determined canceled. We split the pot that way.

Team projected to win = (1st place winnings x team projected to win winning %) + (2nd place winnings x team projected to lose winning %)

Team projected to lose = (1st place winnings x team projected to lose winning %) + (2nd place winnings x team projected to win winning %)

example:

Prizes: 450, 100, 50

Team A had a 97% chance to win

Team B had a 3% change to win

Team A winnings = (450*.97) + (100*.03) = 439.50

Team B winnings = (450*.03)+(100*.97) = 110.5

edit: updated calculation
