Did anyone play proline this week for their weekly pools selections where you pick every pick on the board? Last week a handful of people won something like $39 000 +. Well, this week I’ve already won since I won with the Chargers last night and I already had boxed tonight’s game between Baltimore and Denver. Those who’ve played know when you box a game it doesn’t matter what the outcome in the game is but you pay extra for it. Anyway, anyone else play this weekend and it seems like it’s another one of those NFL weekends where most of the teams came in with the exception of a few or if anyone didn’t box tonight’s game, that could go either way. I wish it were a huge payout and can anyone else add what they might think the final prize money will be for everyone? Thanks.
Proline*Pro Picks*Pools question for this weekend?

- Start date
When all of the favourites cover, the number of winners huge. Last year I won on a similar ticket and the prize share was $300 and change.
Now, if the Titans would have managed to beat Indy....

Oh really?Ref said:
I was hoping for at least a $1000 especially if Baltimore wins and everyone is on Denver without boxing the game of course since Denver is a favorite in Vegas.
I can think of a few games some guys may have bit on, ie; Rams/Packers, Skins/Giants, Chiefs/Cards.aries said:
You never know, it's a matter of boxing the games correctly and some won't do it because of the extra cost.
May be wishful thinking but I'm hoping for a nice payout!
Good luck tonight!
When all the favourites win, the payout is usually small. Still though, $400-$500 is nothing to sneeze at, it`s just small compared to the usual ones. I had 12/13; the Tampa choke against New Orleans killed me.CuMsHoT KinG said:
With boxing the games, it depends on how many you do that with. If you`re doing more than a few, the cost of the tickets adds up. If you, let's say, took
the favourites in the 10 most obvious games and boxed the other 4 then it would be 16 tickets for $80; not a big risk. If you took the favourites in the 7 most obvious games and boxed the other 7 you`d be looking at 128 tickets costing $640. You`d still be making a profit usually doing that, but if one of those favourites lose then you lose everything. I`m too gutless for that.
Back in the 90s there were two guys in Ottawa who made a killing off Pro-Line, winning $millions over the long haul and leading to the OLGC restricting how many tickets you could buy. Anyways, they said their success had more to do with knowing math than knowing sports.
The pools payouts so far this year:
Week 1- $93,300
Week 2- $3,100
Week 3- $38,200
Week 4- $5,600
I don't know D,I think with the stats Ottawasub put up on payouts, you would think at least $500-$1000 with the amount of people playing. I'm hoping it won't be that much of a drop off from the other weeks.
I'm with Hammertm on a $1000 payout min, with the Ravens winning since a favorite would essentially be going down in the game.
We'll soon find out, GO RAVENS!
Thanks dude!Dimitri said:
I really feel Baltimore is the superior team here and get the win outright; Denver's young secondary won't handle the resurgence of Air McNair, and that potent Ravens defense!
But you're right, I know a lot of people that box the Monday night games but hopefully they all lost by that point, lol.
Let's go RAVENS!
Don't laugh but the payout this week is..................................$83.30
Yep, you heard it right. I jus (7am) ran my ticket through the machine at Mac's Milk.
So I boxed 4 games = $80.00 and the payout is $83.30
I just made $3.30
I am sooooooooooo pissed. I think I'll retire from betting. This isnt worth it anymore since eveyone and their uncle wins and the payouts are small.
I liked it better a few years ago when there were only 3 winners of $80,000 every week.
That's why I got into it not for chump change.

Are you fucking serious?
If that's the case, some people actually LOST money!
I know a lot of people that had Denver straight up last night and it didn't help either.
You're probably right but don't ever scan your ticket at the store unless they have the money to pay you out! I've done that before with a point spread card when you know what the payout is and the clerk said she didn't have the cash to pay me and you can't go to another store since they scanned it. You obviously had a good idea this card was paying shit in any event.
Last week there were 73 winners paying out almost $5700 and I can only imagine the number of winners this week what like 7773?
What a joke proline is especially how they scam people now with their bullshit props setup that pays shit! It used to be that it was on point spread bases and now a moneyline thing so you wager more and the payout is less.
Yeah, this sucks what a kick in the nuts!
It was worse then a kick in the nutz. It was more like me laying down on my back with my legs opened and Tiger Woods taking a swing with his driver at my nutz. When the guy at the counter ran my ticket through and it read $83.30 I looked at him and said "whatz that for?" he then asked me if I wanted cash or will I buy anything. I then said "are you f-ing serious?"CuMsHoT KinG said:Yeah, this sucks what a kick in the nuts!
Hopefully he made a mistake and it was really $883John_E_Depth said:

ya this has got to me the lowest payout ever in the nfl pools. Brutal!! i was so surprised when i just checked the site.
i agree payouts will never be like first 2 years. esp first year. Now theres more ppl playing and also boxing games, def more winners.
I won the first year, 2nd week, but there just had to be 70 other winners,
1st time i ever win anything, should've been able to make a nice investment but instead had to take a wayy smaller cut. But still, not complaining as it still was a good amount and also better than the $100 something payout few weeks after.
Prob wont see too many 1,2 winners these days nemore.
