Super Bowl Pool Results
2:07 AM ET on 2/4/13 by Jay Soester
Results for all four of 2013's Super Bowl Pools are now available. In a show of good faith, I've waived the competition rule stipulating that 3% of the pot goes toward covering costs associated for each pool where the house had a winning square (that applies to all pools aside from pool #1).

Congrats to all who saw their box result in a return on their investment. I will begin sending winnings out on Monday via PayPal. Unfortunately, more than $500 was at stake, but I can only send out $500 per month based on PayPal guidelines, as a result, some will likely receive their winnings in March.

Winners:
Pool 1:
1Q: Chad Luik ($57.61)
2Q: Bobby Boyce ($96.01)
3Q: Bobby Boyce ($57.61)
4Q: Trevor Rubly ($172.82)

Pool 2:
1Q: House ($51)
2Q: Jon Klaybor ($85)
3Q: Nick Alicea ($51)
4Q: Chad Luik ($153)

Pool 3:
1Q: House ($10.20)
2Q: Tom Courtney ($17.00)
3Q: Brad Wilson ($10.20)
4Q: Bobby Boyce ($30.60)

Pool 4:
1Q: Steve Wilken ($10.20)
2Q: Tom Courtney ($17.00)
3Q: House ($10.20)
4Q: Tom Courtney ($30.60)

Super Bowl Update
2:35 PM ET on 2/3/13 by Jay Soester
With the big game about four hours away, there are currently 59 $5 boxes accounted for and 127 $1 boxes paid for. As things stand, the $5 pool would stick with 59 boxes while there would be two $1 pools with 63 and 64 squares accounted for. It's not too late to participate, simply fill out this form and then use PayPal's "Personal" tab then "payment owed" button to send your entry fee.

There are currently 18 boxes left in our odds-based pool with the pot currently at $382.69.

Winnings are paid out as 15% of the pot for the box corresponding to the 1st and 3rd quarter scores. The halftime box gets 25% and the final score box gets 45% of the pot.


While I'm reminding you about Super Bowl deadlines, the deadline to submit your final lineup for Fantasy NFL Playoffs is 6:27 PM ET tonight. Make sure you don't try to select a player you've already used.

Super Bowl Pools Update/Last Call
2:16 AM ET on 2/3/13 by Jay Soester
The Super Bowl is roughly 16 and a half hours away and there's still room for more boxes in our Super Bowl Pools.

There are currently 25 boxes available in our odds-based pool. To purchase a box, simply click the price link in it and fill out the form.

Our $5 randomized pool has 32 boxes paid for while our $1 pool has 70 paid for. If the $5 pool doesn't get to 50 boxes paid, each box paid for will be turned into five, $1 boxes. Should that happen, all participants boxes will be spread out as evenly as possible between the number of pools created. To sign up for a randomized pool, fill out this form, then pay via PayPal to bsoester@bellsouth.net. Make sure you use the "Personal" tab and the "payment owed" button to avoid transaction fees.

I anticipate beginning to set up the randomized pools at 5 PM ET or a bit earlier, make sure you get your purchases as far in advance of that as possible. Those that do purchase boxes should begin to watch their inbox and the website for information on their box allocations around that time. Odds-Based purchases will be taken up to 6:30 PM ET.

Super Bowl Pools Available
2:21 AM ET on 1/22/13 by Jay Soester
The first pool, the third edition of our odds-based pool is now available and updated to reflect the results from last year's Super Bowl. It's a $5-base pool with up to $514.50 at stake. For those unfamiliar with Super Bowl Pools, you can read an explanation here. If your box is the winning box after the first or third quarter, you'll receive 15% of the prize money, if any of your boxes is the winning box at halftime, you'll receive 25%, and if your box is the winning box at the end of the game you receive 45% of the prize money. If you're looking for statistics on score frequencies from this season, what you're looking for has been in the NFL Pickem Stats section this whole time.

Pick your box before someone beats you to it. I'm offering one free $0.50 box for each $5 worth of boxes you purchase up until Friday night (1/25) at 11:59 PM ET, while the $0.50 boxes are still available (there are 29). Last season saw Douglas Hansen win 15% of the pot when a $0.50 box (AFC 7, NFC 5) came up at the end of the third quarter.

To purchase a box, click the link in the box you'd like to purchase then fill out the form and send your money via PayPal, Western Union or check. If you use PayPal, make sure you choose the "Personal" tab then the "payment owed" button to avoid transaction fees. Instructions on where to send your check are given upon completion of the form. For Western Union, email me directly.


We also have traditional, randomized pools available. You can sign up for as many $1 and/or $5 boxes as you'd like via this form. Use the "other notes" section to say whether or not you'd be willing to switch pools with your entry(/ies) should there not be enough entries in either type of pool. If you're unfamiliar with the traditional Super Bowl Pool (or Squares), check out the rules.


A minimum of 50% of the available boxes have to be accounted for in any of our pools to go ahead.

Super Bowl Pool Winnings Sent
11:49 PM ET on 2/6/12 by Jay Soester
Results for all four of 2012's Super Bowl Pools are now available. Congrats to all who saw their box result in a return on investment. All winnings have already been sent via PayPal. In a show of good faith, I've waived the competition rule stipulating that 3% of the pot goes toward covering costs associated for each pool as the house boxes covered all fees. Matthew Dixon was the big winner as he landed the final score square [7,1] in Pool #1 which netted him $150.53. Anders Nilsson was the most frequent winner as his 30 squares across the three $1, random pools resulted in three squares hitting in Pool #3 to net $70.55. Hopefully we see everyone back to try their luck next season.

I've begun accepting NCAA Tournament Pool sign-ups for our $1 or $5 groups. The groups themselves should be available in a few weeks.

I haven't decided if I'll attempt to run Fantasy Baseball leagues this season. With my finding a job, the need for them isn't as high while the difficulty in filling them often is. If anyone is interested in helping me fill them, let me know, I'm willing to split the proceeds proportionally based on help.
