Payout ideas for 14 team league. 500 a team entry fee (1 Viewer)

Da Guru

Fair & Balanced
I am starting a new league with guys that have grown tired of their leagues for various reasons. It will be a 14 team league with two divisions of 7 teams. 8 teams will make the 3 week playoff of weeks 14-17. We have decided on a 500 dollar a team entry fee. We also charge 5 dollars a drop and add or trade. 7000.00 in total for entry fee and at least another 500.00 for drap add and trade money will leave me roughly 7500.00 to disperse at years end.

Looking the correct amount to give the SuperBowl winner, runnerup, and how to payout the rest.

TIA

One suggestion:Most points (reg. season) - 500Div. winner (reg. season) - 500 x 23rd place - playoffs - 5002nd place - playoffs - 1000First place - 4500A dominant team would get 5500 of 7500.

I like the idea of the winning team getting the lions share of the pot.

Winner take all....if you are truly trying to re-energize the folks....think of electricity that your super bowl will generate....winner gets $7,500.....loser gets nada....
 
Our league is $250 buyin with 14 teams (ends up a little over $4k in the pot) and it breaks down as:

6th Place……………………………………………….. $75

5th Place……………………………………………….. $125

4th Place:……………………………………………….. 10% of remaining pot

3rd Place:……………………………………………….. 20% of remaining pot

2nd Place:………………………………………………. 30% of remaining pot

1st Place:……………………………………………….. 40% of remaining pot

I wish it were a little more top heavy personally, but I've had a hard time pushing that through. I'd prefer something like:

4th: $250 (dues back)

3rd: 15% remaining

2nd: 35% remaining

1st: 50% remaining

This looks like a decent format. I may kick up the winners share to 60% though.I do not want to reward the 3-8 playoff teams too much. Past history in our leagues show that if team thinks they can get some cash back they sit on their hands and really do not try or make the moves to win it all. We want the new league to have more action and for all teams to make winning it all their #1 goal.
