Hello, everyone. This is my first post on this forum, so I will do my best to make it a good one.
I often create spreadsheets to try and improve my Excel skills. The newest one I have made has stumped me a bit. For every UFC fight card my friend and I gamble a 6-pack of beer to whoever can win the most fake money on the fights. For example, I pick five fights on a certain card. I then find the odds associated with each fight on various gambling websites. My friend and I each have ¥10,000 fake yen to spread out over the fights. The only rule is that we must gamble at least ¥500 on each fight. So, we select a winner and how much money we risk on the fight. The winner of the 6-pack is whoever won the most fake money after all the fights are completed. Here are three screenshots of what my spreadsheet looks like.
The first one is of the raw fight data:

The second one shows my picks (and outcome):

The third one shows Andy’s picks (and outcome):

This is what my spreadsheet looks like after all the fights have already finished.
My spreadsheet works like a charm now. I simply paste the winners name into the yellow highlighted cells and Excel makes all the calculations for me. I was wondering if there was some kind of Excel function I can use to calculate the different combinations to produce a “winning” result (me winning more money than Andy). I have no idea where to begin with this one.
If anybody can point me in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated.
