Monday 14th March 2005

INDIANAPOLIS, IN– March 14, 2005 – March Madness has started! With the field announced earlier today by the NCAA, Sportsbook.com is the first to offer odds on the tournament with its March Madness bracket.

“March Madness is the biggest basketball event in the United States and Sportsbook.com is excited that we are first to market with odds on every team in the field,” says Alex Czajkowski, Marketing Director, Sportsbook.com. “We’ll update our bracket after each round to provide the latest odds as teams make their run toward the Final Four.”

Going in to the first round, Sportsbook.com’s favorites to win the National Championship are Illinois and UNC at 7-2, with Duke close behind at 10-1.

“Keep in mind,” Czajkowski added, “unlike office pools, Sportsbook.com fans have a chance to place new bets as teams are eliminated over the next three weeks. And, we are the first to include real time in-game betting during the tournament.”

Here are the complete list of odds and the bracket for March Madness 2005 (attached).
