Doesn't look like there will be an 'official' TTP one but maybe some members here will put one together.

Notice will be a little short, and so is my time, but i'll have an emerency meeting with KNVB and see what/if we can get something together.

Problem is, this won't happen, if we dont' get all the money in first, and in a weeks notice that may be asking alot.

Will keep everyone posted ASAP.

As mentioned, time is way too short. Since the tournament is 2 days away and the pool wouldn't be started without getting an idea of interested numbers and getting monies in before the start, as it seems it's tough for some to do that, we will postpone this one.
Possibly we may do smaller ones for the remaining Majors.

If anyone is interested in doing pools for each individual remaining major let us know.

It's not your honesty, it's whether he wants to, or had the time, to make up the pool with everyone's picks and collect the money. Collecting money seems to be an issue with people these days and honestly, i don't think any pools should be started without having all money in first. Or not putting anyones entries in without first receiving the money.

Regs? THoughts?

it was just a side pool that required no work from regs.
knvb and i did it last year.

no worries if no one wants to do it.

picks would be emailed to me and i would post all entries thursday morning
if someone fails to pay... thats life and will not be able to enter anymore side bets...
thats why i only said $10

i dont have the time to get specific...big money winner takes all.
