DISCLAIMER: I am not promoting nor encouraging betting. If this post is unacceptable, please take it down.
I saw that pinnacle sports are offering odds on the Pro Tour. Perhaps I will make a small bet to make it more exiting to watch.
An interesting category of odds are "how many basic [basic land type] will be in the top 8", with the following odds:
Number of Basic Islands in the Top 8 (Incl. SB)?
Over 5.5 Cards -1.925
Under5.5 Cards -1.925
Number of Basic Mountains in the Top 8 (Incl. SB)?
Over 7.5 Cards 1.970
Under 7.5 Cards 1.884
Number of Basic Forests in the Top 8 (Incl. SB)?
Over 5.5 Cards 1.925
Under 5.5 Cards 1.925
Number of Basic Plains in the Top 8 (Incl. SB)?
Over 3.5 Cards 1.862
Under 3.5 Cards 1.990
Number of Basic Swamps in the Top 8 (Incl. SB)?
Over 7.5 Cards 1.925
Under 7.5 Cards 1.925
I guess a single Merfolk deck making the top 8 could be enough to land an "over" bet on the Islands. If you balieve that burn does not make top8, would the "below" bet on mountain make sense?
I predict two Affinity, two Burn, one Merfolk and one Tron in the top 16.

These days, some wizards are finding they have a little too much deck left at the end of their $$$.
