Ok bear with me a minute while I explain my situation.
I am in a football pool of sorts with about 20 guys-- each guy starts with a negative 250$ balance.
We start the first week of the pro season and each person picks one college game and one pro game each week against the spread based on FRI USA TODAY.
A win is worth 1 point and 25$, a loss is worth 0 points and -25$,a push is worth 1/2 point and no money.
I have done thsi with the same group og guys for 12 years--I have won twice but not recently.Currently I am in the lead with 14 points and am at even money in the pool.(I have won 14 out of 18 games so far)
Based on past years it takes bewteen 20-22 points to win... bottom line is if I go 50% the rest of the year I will most likely win and make 2500$ for my effort.
Anything I should consider strategy wise? Or just keep doing what I am doing,capping the games and let the chips fall?
Any advise is appreciated!
