    Official 2011 17 Run Pool

    This is the Official Thread for the 2011 17 Run Pool

    Every person is assigned a team each week. Teams were chosen at random for week 1 and rotated down each week for the remainder of the season.

    Here is the link to the spreadsheet for the year.

    2011 17 Run Pool team assignments

    Rules are simple...

    - Your Team must score 17 runs exactly in a game.
    - If 2 or more teams score 17 runs, the pot will be split.
    - All points carry over week to week if no team scores 17 runs.
    - Weeks start on Mondays and end on Sundays

    Here's the list of participants:

    1- Jiggy Fly
    2- Bcatswin
    3- Bob Loblaw
    4- D3 Mighty Ducks
    5- nickdotcom
    6- Carolina Daze
    7- SkivChef
    8- CTOWNsCAPPIN
    9- shinnman
    10-LuckyBeans
    11-LChruscial85
    12-SKiLLsSoLoN
    13-smarsh816
    14-steve18
    15-GGRIF82
    16-JamesBrown
    17-stikymess
    18-jorge1
    19-shawnjohn5
    20-watertight
    21-blanda
    22-Poundabooty
    23-jad
    24-sneakerhead
    25-shari91
    26-ArIVd5
    27-BMaddz
    28-ebbearsfb1
    29-stealthyburrito
    30-jorge1

    *IMPORTANT*
    Each week, Bcatswin will be making a post IN THIS THREAD, for you to transfer your 5 points payments. Look for these posts each week and PLEASE make sure to pay in these posts. It will make it easier to keep track of payments.

    Good Luck Everybody!!

    Gonna be a huge pot. Hope u don't lose interest of people this may happen 5 times max all year... I think people though it was a team had to score a combo of 17 runs for the week

    Very true. I get in one at my job every year. Doesn't get hit often but it will. Last year was an off year but years before that have been gettin hit often.

    i don't care either way since there just betpoints and only 5 of them but 17 total runs in a week makes more sense

    The first row shows the dates for the weeks. There's 30 teams.

    I've been playing this pool for over 10 years. It's 17 runs in a game. Sorry if some people have been misled.

    Click the gold emblem in the post that bcats made. You will only be able to transfer 2 points since you are a non pro. So make 3 transfers within the week. 2-2-1

    agreed its like 260 points or so over the course of the year, granted you could win alot if it hits but


    happened 5 times / (162) x which is 4860
    5/4860= .0010288 so that percent for about 300 points

    of winning and probably less than that as scoring is going done

    i think everyone should just get one team for the year, and do like 21 runs exactly most teams play like 6 games a week

    i'll do weekly, i prefer one team for the year rather than different every week... doubt this works out cause people will forget to send weekly points
