Week 8 was much friendlier to the betting public. Lots of players in the green this week. Mgcolby had the biggest jump this week with a +70k! Archangel, Hyped, mikeym, and Froob also had big weeks over 40k in winnings. Archangel also took over sole possession of 1st place with his big week. And sadly, we must say goodbye to another participant as Fightingirish went bankrupt. Thank you for joining us this season, and we will see you again in August I hope. We are now down to 24 of us from a starting point of 30.
There were 8 people who chose the Steelers in the Pool Contest. You all shared the 80k pot with 10k each. Three of you also correctly had 31 points for the 49ers, and collected 10k for that. Nobody had the final score of 31-14 for 50k. We will continue the Pick the Score contest this week and likely through the rest of the regular season.
Below are the results and current rankings as we near the season's midpoint. I will have the Week 9 betting thread up by Thursday afternoon.
As a sneak peak, I am posting here the coming week's Pool Contest. DO NOT MAKE YOUR PICKS IN THIS THREAD. I just want everyone to be aware of this so nobody misses out on your possible share of 100k!!! There are only 4 choices, so it is more likely you will be sharing with more people should you win. But there is also a 1 in 4 chance to win.
I have chosen four underdogs who are all currently in the +3.0 to +3.5 range, so they are equal dogs in the eyes of Vegas. You will choose the team you think will have the largest winning margin. If all 4 lose their games, the winner will be whichever team loses by the least points. If there is a tie, the team that scores the most points will be the winner. This gives you time to think about this one. There are 24 of us now. If our bets are equally spread out at 6 per team, the winners would bank $17k each!
See you all Thursday.
