!st year playing in a different kind of March Madness Pool

I will never go back to picking the brackets,this is so much more fun.Think of it as a Super Bowl box.Same 100 boxes,Winning team across the top line, and losing team across the left. Random picks of numbers,so you don't know your numbers till all the boxes are filled. You can win multiple times. For example,my numbers are W-6,L-2. Any game that ends in say,76-72 or 86-52, any combo of last digits being 6 for the winning team, and 2 for the losing team,would be a winner for me.Even double numbers,have won several times already. Some guy had W6-L6, and he's won ,76-66- and I think 66-56.Pretty cool watching games down the stretch,thinking what has to happen for you to win.My one son, hit in the first game,with W-0 L-8, when a foul was called with the score W59-L58, and only .04 seconds left. I knew his numbers,realized it was a one& one, and knew he had to make the first, and miss the second, which is what happened for a 60-58 win.Other games that are 15 or 20 point blowouts,still hold your interest when the final score means so much to your numbers. It's a great way to watch these games. The first 2 days it's crazy as your flipping back and forth, when the last minute means so much.

How much money to enter and how much do you win per game? Is it for whole tourney or just first round?

I am in one of these also. This is my 3rd year doing it and have not won anything yet!! There are 63 games so 63 winners. The pool I am in is $100 per box and there is also a $50 per box pool.

For the $100 pool each first round game win is $50, second round win is $100, third round is $200, fourth round is $400, fifth round is $800 and final is $2000.

I still play the brackets too but the box pool is fun too.
