2023 March Madness Bracket Pools

I'm back again to run the pool this year. I will escrow the money for the pools and am collecting zero fees for doing so.
Two Pools this year. One $50 Pool and One $250 Pool.
Rules
I'm going to run through Yahoo with the same scoring system as we've always used (2-3-5-7-11-15). Allowing a max of 4 brackets per person in the $50 and 3 brackets per person in the $250. Payouts will be determined by number of entrants, probably paying out around 3-5% of the entries depending on how many people enter. All brackets must be paid for by Noon Eastern on Thursday. Any Brackets that are not paid for by noon will be declared ineligible. If you send $$ after noon on Friday, your bracket will be disqualified and your money will be returned.
All entries must follow the format of Bracket Name = "2p2name" (1 through 3)
So for my 3 brackets in the Yahoo site, it's
Zimmer4141 (1)
Zimmer4141 (2)
Zimmer4141 (3)
Payment
This is a cash only pool. I'm not a crypto guy, I don't accept BTC or other crypto as payment. There are 2 ways to pay me.
Paypal or Zelle. That's it. I refuse to use Venmo after having issues with them last year.
Put your 2p2 name and your 2p2 name only in the memo line. Do not put anything related to gambling, madness, basketball, any of that. Don't be an idiot.
Entering
Send me a PM if you're interested. I will send you a Google Form to fill out, the link to the Yahoo pool with password, and my Payment Information.
This will immensely help me track payments and entries. I'm working a full time job and have a 9 month old at home, so I'd greatly appreciate if you make this as easy as possible on me.
Please post in this thread after you've submitted your payments and brackets and we will track entries in this thread as a double check to make sure everything's squared away.
Happy bracketing!

In. I’ve played the last couple years but unfortunately can’t access my original 2p2 name (rosseforp eht) as I don’t have access to the email I used to sign up anymore and I guess my password wasn’t stored anywhere. I would appreciate if y’all would let me play again this year and if mod could give me PM privileges so I can PM Zimmer for pool info. Thanks.
