My pool requires a minimum of 4 games and the Eagles/Redskin game isn't on it.
Giants, Bills, Dolphins & Chargers.

Its a rip-off, go elsewhere.
The net income of a bookie that requires 4 is much much greater than that of a (fair) bookie who requires 3.
Thief would be a better term.

payout....
with 3 wins:3's payout 1 bet = $10X2X2X2=$80
with 3 wins:4's payout 0 bets = $0

with 4 wins 3's payout 4 bets =$80X4=$320
with 4 wins 4's payout 1 bet = $10X2X2X2X2=$160

with 5 wins 3's payout 10 bets = $80X10=$800
with 5 wins 4's payout 5 bets = $160X5=$800

so as you can see, its just stupid to bet 4 games per bet when you can bet 3

now in the 6-7 option, it would be simply wiser to bet the 6-7, but you'll rarely win, especially at these odds ....end result=4's are not a good idea.
Seriously, look for somewhere else to bet.

that is so confusing!

let me just say......Go Cowboys! The Dolphins will be the unfortunate recipients of an inspired defensive smack down in response to the piss poor performance of opening day. 24-3 final score. Marion Barber will punch 2 in from inside the red zone, Crayton on a deep route and a field goal chip in early.

either that, or my crystal ball is AFU.
I don't believe in crystal balls, and i'm a witch.
The deep route sounds possible, but Marion from the inside ain't gonna be happening against the Dolphins.

This is where the lesson about beting the maximum of 10% of your spare money comes in handy.

What? I'm a now employed for the bookies?
