Figured Id try to get a friendly pool bet going.
10$ enter, winner take all(chop if 2people end even on points).

Each player picks 1 team from each of the 4 seeding pots.

Scoring is as follows.
Group stage:
If your team ends 4th in the group-1 point.
3rd in group-2 points.
2nd in group-3 points.
1st in group- 4 points.

Reaching quarter finals-5 points.
Reaching semi-finals-10 points.
Finishing 4th- 10points.
Finishing 3rd- 15points.
Finishing 2nd- 20points.
World champions-35points

So if one of your team wins there group and the WC u get 54 points for that team.


Pot 1.
South Africa.
Brazil.
Spain.
Netherlands.
Italy.
Germany.
Argentina.
England.

Pot 2.
Australia.
Japan.
North Korea.
South Korea.
Honduras.
Mexico.
USA.
New Zealand.


Pot 3.
Algeria.
Cameroon.
Ivory Coast.
Ghana.
Nigeria.
Chile.
Paraguay.
Uruguay.


Pot 4.
Denmark.
France.
Greece.
Portugal
Serbia
Slovakia.
Slovenia.
Switzerland.

To try to avoid draws your not alot to pick the exact same line up as some one else but picking 3 out of 4 same is fine so if some one picks Spain,USA,chile,Serbia your allowed to pick Spain,USA,Chile,Denmark ect.

First come first pick.
Just post in this thread if your in along with your picks.


This is not a CC sanctioned thing so CC accepts no responsability over any despuits that may arise.
I am going to ask Debi to escrow when see comes back if needed.

Gesshoo - Brazil, Australia, Chile, France
S93 - Spain,Mexico,Paraguay and Denmark
BluffYou123 - Spain, USA, Ivory Coast, Portugal
KMC1828 - Netherlands, USA, Ivory Coast, Serbia

Total fund - $40

Yea - I will be glad to hold the funds. Ship to me and I will add you to the OP. I can just take Gesshoo's out of his wallet while he is sleeping and make a profit on it so I will go ahead and list him lol.

Well, it all kicked off today.

I don't mind what site the payment is sent to me on (IF I win).

I can ship on either site also but I have sent $10 on Full Tilt already.

We can sort it out when the winner is decided.

Lots of entrants LOL.

Think I'm drawing dead :(, even if Spain win the whole thing.

Surprising nobody picked Uruguay.

Looking forward to the final on Sunday all the same.

COME ON SPAIN!!!

I know I'm out and BluffYou123 is correct - he is drawing dead - but you other 2 still have a shot - this is what I calculate so far.

Gesshoo - 15 points - OUT!!!!

Sindri - 33 points - has Spain left
BluffYou123 - 28 points - has Spain left
KMC1828 - 26 points - has Netherlands left

So the 15 point differential for winning or losing the final will decide if Sindri or KMC1828 wins - good luck!
