I'm mildly excited because under He Who Must Not Be Named this thread would get deleted.
So, I run a cheap ncaa tournament pool, Chus(e) is in it plus friends of mine from high school/undergrad/grad school/jobs. Scoring is the traditional 1st round is 1 points, 2nd round 2 points, 3rd round 4 points, 4th round 8, 5th round 16, sixth round 32,

It is $2 for one sheet, $4 for two, or $5 for 3. Payment info will be given after the first weekend (paypal/venmo/pop/cash), I want people to get in and it is obviously for fun and you do not have to be a good prognosticator to win. I believe the girl who won last year picked Villanova because she lives on Villanova drive or something.

The invite link is:

His random draw pool, where he couldn't even read the lines properly, was very important.

MANY will be in.
Typically, I pay out top 3 winners depending on amount in the pool (50%, 30%, 20%).

I actually think I started doing this after your...departure... from Il Forno. It is much easier to do online.

Just a reminder: 1 bracket is $2, 2 brackets is $4, 3 for $5. After you create your first picks, just click on the add a bracket if you want to do more than one.

I'd would agree but I won it one year so I won't disparage it entirely ... and he paid out promptly with no guff or problems.
