Pick straight up winner of every game and give each a different point value 1-13 if 13 games. Undefeated last week allows me to add to my bankroll. Been doing this for years and never seen an undefeated week.

Cant just quickly pick every game. I could fill out my ATS office pool sheet in 5 seconds if I wanted too.

Rookie Joined: Mar 2007 Posts: 558 Location: Ontario	#5 Posted: 10/19/2011 4:07:17 PM Only Pools I'm in this year is Proline Pools (in Canada). Gotta pick a SU winner for every game played that week... person(s) with the highest number of correct picks takes the pot. Pot can get well up into the $400K+ range, but especially in weeks where there's only 13 games, you usually get hundreds of winners which takes the cut down to ~$1,000 at times. Easier since you can "box" games out, too.
