Office Pools
| 3 Team Lottery |
| Max Players: Virtually Unlimited...technically 26,970 |
| The 3 team lottery pool is a simple pool with no skill or knowledge of football required. Each player in the pool is randomly given a unique 3 team combination. You can pull them out of a hat, draw numbers, etc. As long as each person has a unique 3 team combination. Each player puts up an ante each week and the person with the 3 team combination that scores the lowest combined points and the person with the 3 team combination that have the highest combined points splits the pot each week. |
| Against the Spread |
| Max Players: Unlimited |
| The against the spread pool is a game that requires a little more football knowledge. Each week, a point spread is assigned to each game. The point spread can be taken from the Las Vegas lines, local newspaper, etc. Each player in the pool then selects which team will 'cover the spread' in each game. That is, if a team is favored by 4 points but only wins by 3 then the underdog in that game would be declared the winner. The person with the most wins at the end of each week wins the ante from all the other players that week. |
| Blocks / Number Lottery |
| Max Players: 100 |
| The blocks pool is probably a familiar one to you. It is best suited for the Super Bowl or for each game of the local team in your area. To play the game, construct a 10 x 10 grid so that there are 100 blocks in the grid. Have people randomly write their names into the blocks, having one block cost X amount of money. After all the blocks have been filed, place the number 0-9 randomly along both the vertical and horizontal axis so that each block has a vertical and horizontal number associated with it. Label one axis the name of one team in the game and label the other with that teams opponent. At the end of the game take the last digit of each team's score(0-9) and find whose name is in that block on the grid. That person wins all the money collected from the other players. |
| Suicide Pool |
| Max Players: Unlimited |
| Each week, beginning with week one, each player antes up the set amount of money and selects one team that they think will win their game straight up that week. If that player's team wins, that player goes on to the next week and if that player's team loses then that player is out of the pool and all money they had bet is lost. The game continues week after week until there is only one player left in which case that player is the winner and they collect all the money. The catch is that you can only pick each team one time. So if someone selects Denver in week 1, they can not select Denver again for the rest of the season. Therefore, it becomes more and more difficult to pick a winner each week as the season goes on and players eventually start to become eliminated. |
| Super Bowl Lottery |
| Max Players: 31 |
|
Before the season starts, everyone ante up a set amount and put all 31 team's names in a hat. Each of the people in the pool selects one name from the hat. At the end of the season, which ever person drew the team that wins the super bowl wins all the money from the pool. |
| Weighted Winners (see Winners) |
| Max Players: Unlimited |
| There are 15 games each week. Each player in the pool selects the winner of each game straight up each week and ranks that pick with a number(weight) between 1 and 15. 15 is the highest and 1 is the lowest. Each weight, 1 through 15, MUST be used on a game. When ever a winner is picked that player recieves the weight that they assigned to that game. For example, if you pick Denver to beat Oakland and weight it a 15, i.e. you are confident that Denver will win, and Denver does win then you recieve 15 points. The player with the most points each week wins the pot. |
| Winners |
| Max Players: Unlimited |
| There are 15 games each week. Each player in the pool selects the winner of each game straight up each week. The player with the most wins each week wins the pot. Usually there are ties, some common tie-breakers include: correct pick of the Monday night game winner, closest prediction of the total score of the Monday night game, etc. |
