NCAA POOL (1 Viewer)

I run a pretty large pool every year - some of you were in last year. There were approx. 1700 $5 entries. Let me know if you'd like info.

Pay out 20 places. Winner last year won like $2k - something like that.

 
I think I will take a shot at this. I assume transactions are via PayPal.
Unfortunately, for the first time, no this year. I received an email from paypal last year saying accepting pool payments was a violation of their terms/conditions (ie they consider it gambling) and they'd lay the beat down on me if I did it again and I like using paypal so I'm going to abide by that email. So.... I can take Chase quick pay, Wells Fargo's version of that, or regular mail. There may be other payment means out there, but I'm not going scramble to try to figure them out. My preference is good old fashioned check in the mail. I'll pm you the link.

 
Send me the link. Always interested in a March Madness pool.

Love that site. That's the same one I have been using for 10+ years for the pool that I run. 

 
Registered. Now what?
Brackets are announced this coming Sunday. Once they're announced, historically on this site you can start filling out your sheets as early as maybe 8pm EST Sunday or thereabouts. You can enter as many times as you'd like (up to 25 per user) until tip off of the first game(s) next Thursday. When you know how many sheets you're entering, write me check or arrange some alternate form of payment ($5 per entry) through my Chase or Wells Fargo quick pay. My mailing address is posted on the front page of the site in the introductory message. Feel free to invite others as well.

 
Do you take a cut?
I didn't use to but last year I tipped myself $150 and entrants knew that going in. Admin fee I call it. It's just gotten so big that ya, I compensate myself a small amount now but it pretty much goes back into the pot between me, my wife, and kids and I've never personally won money in my own pool, so there ya go.

Bump

Did the pool last year, love that website. Would rather pay through Wells Fargo though if that's cool OP. I've got a few people I'll be paying for so probably somewhere around 10 brackets.

Thanks for running it again!

We'll figure it out.

 
So I can enter multiple entries under the same account? I'm assuming the answer is yes.
Yes. Limit per user is 25. There have been people in the past who've maxed out believe it or not. After you do your first one, you can just continue on and do another, and another.......
