Investment Opportunities Have Been Set

All-I've set up all of our investment opportunities for March Madness. Hopefully this year's games will be more interesting than last and we won't have to hit the geek dice at 1pm. I'm not saying we can't, I'm just saying...

Anyway, here's the pool's I've put together.

Team Pool:

Same as last year, each envelope costs $1.00 and has 1 team in it. As your team is eliminated so are you. Final Four teams pay out $8.00, Championship Teams payout $10.00 and the winner an additional $12.00.

Point Spread Pool:

Each envelope costs $5.00 and contains 1 team with it's corresponding point spread. All 32 teams for that day are available. The winner of each game, with it's spread, gets $10.00

Player Points Pool:

Each envelope costs $2.00 and contains 2 players, the top scorer from 1 team and the second highest scorer from another team. The points totaled by each player will be added together for your final score. The highest scoring tandem will win $25.00, the second, $18.00, the third, $13.00, and the fourth $8.00.

Final Score Square Pool:

This pool is exactly like the grid pool that most of you have seen for football games. The premise is simple. There are 25 squares which cost $7.00 a piece. Once all squares are sold, numbers will be picked out of a hat to fill in the top and side (each will have 2 numbers a piece). The final score of each game that day will pay out $10.00 except for 1 game (determined that day) which will pay $25.00. i.e. if Duke beats Portland State 77-43 then the square that corresponds to 7 for the higher seed and 3 for the lower seed wins.

I figure this takes into consideration teams, players, spreads, and final scores. I think that's enough right? Just in case, I better make sure the poker table, beer pong table, and geek dice are ready too.
