It's that time of year again...

$1,000 buy-in "4th Annual Poker Pool" on CBS Sports. Jake11291 and Ryan Riess are kind enough to escrow again this year.

BASIC RULES ARE BELOW:
-1k/bracket, 3 max

-PAY Jake Schwartz or Riess PRIOR to tournament starting or bracket is VOID (the earlier the better)

-ACCEPTABLE PAYMENT OPTIONS: Chase QP, BoA, Venmo

-Put your NAME IN THE TITLE for your bracket so we know which brackets belong to whom

-PAYOUTS 50/25/15/10% (subject to change)

You can feel free to PM me, Jake11291 or Ryan Riess for escrow information. Once payment is received, we will PM you the link to join the pool on CBS.

Payouts will be announced by the time the first game tips Thursday at 12:15pm.

GOOD LUCK!!!

Thanks for organizing. Why switch from Yahoo to CBS? Scenario generator is :major key

I don't disagree, I love the Scenario Generator. Ryan and Jake decided to go with CBS this year. Hopefully CBS has added something similar to the Scenario Generator, it's about time!

Using cbs over yahoo is a really bad idea. Scenario generator or bust

I strongly agree. I'm petitioning now to see if Jake and Ryan would consider making the switch to Yahoo like we did last year. Scenario Generator is a must in my mind.

I doubt they are going to change it, they already have 30 brackets in the CBS pool and were having trouble with yahoo before for whatever reason.

Sounds great, just let me know which payment method is best for you (Venmo, PayPal, or Bank of America) and I'll send you the payment info. Once you send payment, I'll provide you with the link to register.
