Pick'em Pool Rules

Object

Pick 6 games against the spread each week. Go 6-0 to win that week's pot.

How it works

• Each week, a slate of games is posted with a point spread for each one.
• Choose any 6 of those games and pick which team you think will beat the spread.
• Go 6-0 against the spread to win the pot.
• A push (the final margin lands exactly on the spread) counts as a loss, not a tie.
• Once a game kicks off, that pick is locked and cannot be changed.
• You can change an unlocked pick as often as you like, right up to kickoff.
• New entries and pick changes close once fewer than 6 games remain before kickoff for the week.

Entries

Unlimited entries per person — enter as many times as you'd like each week. Each entry costs $10, paid via Venmo to @brentfreeman1.

The pot

Every entry costs $10, and the pot total shown is always tentative — it's only final once all entry fees for the week are actually collected. If more than one entry goes 6-0, the final pot is split evenly among them.

Winning

Standings update as games finish and are visible on the leaderboard. If no entry goes 6-0 in a given week, the pool's handling of that week (rollover, best record, etc.) will be announced separately.
