I have never participated in a NFL Survivor Pool before. Are there any resources or general suggestions that would improve my odds tremendously?
If it is relevant:
-high buy-in
-winner-takes-all
-each team only allowed once per season
-no spreads, all picks are ML
I´d appreciate a few pointers or suggestions from people with experience.
Thank you!
Know whoever is running the pool and make sure they are trustworthy. Take it from me, it sucks when you win and then have to fight to get paid.
Also, transparency, all participant's picks are available to see before kick-offs. Usually it's done online, but some old school pools are emailed out as an Excel Spreadsheet.
High Buy-in is a relative term, but pools between $25 and $100 per entry are nice entry point. Also, if pool offers "insurance" meaning you can enter through first 4 weeks if knocked out is nice too.
