Hey,

Many of you many not know what Pro Pools is. It's an Ontario Lottery game where you need to pick every football game correctly, and the total pot is usually $700-900k. Last week there was one winner of $725k. First week there were 25 winners of $27k. So far i've spent about $900 on tickets and hedging. I need to spend another $580 to at minimum break even. This will mean i've spent about $1500. Should I hedge more to make a profit for sure? How big do you think the payout will be this week? I have picked Dallas for my pro pools ticket, so I would be hedging Chicago online.

Thanks in advance.

no idea, i like dallas but GL..

i hate pro line LOL, odds are HORRID. but the government will never give anybody an inch so...i like them for hockey pro picks though

yo bud, i have dallas on my pro picks too!.. what do u think it will pay?

**dodge71** · 10-01-12, 09:12 AM

only thing i dont like is this week there was only 14 games..

**ImakeBets** · 10-01-12, 09:15 AM

Don't know man, that's why i'm here asking to pros! If Dallas wins I think the pay out is 7-15k. This would mean around 80-100 people would have a perfect ticket this week. But that's just a guess, was hoping to get some more insight here!

**dodge71** · 10-01-12, 09:16 AM

Yeah i say 100-200 people win scary only being 14 games but ill take it!.. did you box any of the games?

**ImakeBets** · 10-01-12, 09:22 AM

Yeah bro I boxed 5 games, you?

**dodge71** · 10-01-12, 09:27 AM

how did you box 5 when you can only box 4 games?.. and no i just did a straight 5 dollar pool

**ImakeBets** · 10-01-12, 09:35 AM

Because I box 4 games on 2 tickets and then took DET on one of those tickets and MINN on the other. = 5 boxed games. costs $160.

prepare to get taxed up your anal passage

**dodge71** · 10-01-12, 09:40 AM

In my opinion there were 6-7 tough games or dogs that won this week. would like a estimate from some of the pro's here on a payout.

**dodge71** · 10-01-12, 09:41 AM

lol here in Canada we don't get taxed on lottery

Canada doesn't tax lotteries bro

**oddtodd** · 10-01-12, 10:15 AM

Theres gonna be a ton of winners this week. I wouldn't be surprised if the payout was only a thousand or so

**racer43** · 10-01-12, 10:42 AM

tonight's game is one of my boxed games.... too bad the damn Giants killed my ticket last night!! Good luck to you tonight

**jlipe** · 10-01-12, 11:50 AM

Congrats Bets on going perfect. I play the wclc, not near as populated as yours out east. We had
one winner with 14 out of 15 last week that paid 195k. I went perfect on the college saturday,
boxed 3 games but so did 31 other people for a modest 210 dollars. Is there any threads for the
lottery pools on a week to week basis? I would like find other players for discussion on ideas and
thoughts.
btw, I have Dallas too and would hedge like you said.

Nice! Last week out here somebody went 15/15 and there was only one winner for 725k!

I don't know if this site has any lottery forums but I know other sites do.

where can I buy those tickets and participate:???

**jinxpro13** · 10-01-12, 05:55 PM

congrats bro. there was only one real 'upset' this week with minn beating detroit, so Im guessing you'll only get a payout around 3 or 400 if dallas wins tonight.
Buzzkill.. I know.
lots of my friends were on minnesota and washington this week so you weren't alone dude.
There were such huge payouts to start the season due to the insane upsets..no one called new orleans losing 3 straight...
I went a perfect 15 for 15 last year and only got 150 bucks

To make any real money with pools you have to box the crazy underdogs and hope for an insane week like week 3 was. week 4.. not so much. the fact you come on here and you already have a couple people with live pools tickets as well doesn't bode well for your payout, but who the f knows.

good luck

You from western Ontario? I've never seen a payout in Ontario for $300-400

from toronto. im just guessing. basically guessing it's not over 500. i hope it is for you, but i doubt it.

**rainman416** · 10-01-12, 06:23 PM

I too think it will be a light week for payouts on Pools.. On account of how many easy games came through.. 2 of my buddies are in a pick-em pool and both went perfect this week until tonight.. small sample.. but they're not too great at pick-em.. so I feel like it's gonna pay 2 G's tops..

If it were me, I'd be optimistic and hedge enough to win $500 profit if bears won... and hope for more if Dallas wins

From Toronto too

GOOD LUCK BRO!

**SpreadSniper** · 10-01-12, 06:51 PM

I don't think the payout is going to be anywhere near what you think its going to be... was a fairly easy week... not many upsets... I'd still be alive if SEA took care of business as well....
