A Pick X Pool is a fun and unique format that’s easy to join but challenging to win. Think picking the top teams is easy? Think again.
Pick too many high seeds, and your score might stay low. Pick too many Cinderella teams, and you might be out early.
How Pick X Pools Work
Commissioner Sets the Rules:
You decide how many teams each member selects from the field of 64.Members Make Their Picks:
Participants choose any 'X' number of teams before the tournament starts—no additional picks are made during the tournament.Scoring:
Every time a selected team wins, the member earns points equal to that team's seed number (e.g., a 12-seed win earns 12 points).Shared Picks Allowed:
The same teams can be selected by multiple members—so strategy matters.Victory Conditions:
The member with the most cumulative points at the end of the tournament wins.
