like i already mentioned the pool ticket is worth 2,000 if all favo's win and if buf wins then ur looking at either 5 perfect tickets or 1 wrong for 800-1,200

Mike, I'm in the same boat exactly -- my first post here and Arizona is going to end up costing me a perfect ticket. I'd like to blame Warner, but it's tough to quarterback when you're getting 2-3 seconds at most to work through your progressions. Hell, they couldn't freaking protect him on the Hail Mary.

Russian, I had no boxes -- straight $5 bet.

At least I won $50 on $10 on Denver/Jets/Atlanta.

I still have an outside chance at a perfect ticket this week.

With no boxes left I have:

13/13
New England
Oakland

There was a time when the Raiders were money on Monday Night Football. I need some of that tonight.

Wish me luck.

[The_Hoser]

Good luck, Ty -- I don't think Oakland has a hope in hell, but I'll be pulling for you anyhow!

And how do you measure yourself against other handicappers, Ty? By height?

LMFAO... well done Hoser!

Welcome to the mall.

[Slammer]

This pool might become a lot more interesting now. As they say, anything can happen and anyone can win.

[7thHeaven]

For all intents and purposes, there are 3 upsets: New York Jets, Denver and San Francisco, pending the late game in Oakland

I will still stick with my original estimate a few posts up the thread: the payout will be in the low 4-digit.

[Slammer]

Had Buffalo done it, it probably would have broken five figures. Now back to normal with a couple hundred hundred winning tix (assuming SD does it, which based on what we just saw, should not just be taken for granted).

You may still have a chance Ty. Definitely ballsy call picking Oakland straight up but as the saying goes: Go big or go home.

If the Raiders pulls through, you will be in for a decent payday.

Have any fingernails left, Ty?

I've given up my prideful wish of 14/15 and I'm pulling for your Raiders. Well, actually ... I'm going to bed, but I'll hopefully open this window tomorrow morning and find out you're a little richer.

Good luck!

15 of 15 share Prize $3967.80, 124 Winners.

thats very shocking i defently thought it would be much less

Congrats to any winners out there

[TyWebb]

I went to bed after the Bills game. I just couldn't watch, or sleep for that matter.

Wow that was close.

Let's get'em next week.

[Slammer]

Considering how everything went, it paid quite well. I figured at least 200 winners, maybe more. Healthy pot too, around $492,000.

Tough economic times or not, degenerates will find a way to gamble, apparently. People have their priorities straight.

Congrats to anyone who won, pleasant surprise that it paid what it did.
