Answer:
The Entry fee is $20, all of which goes into the winner's pot.
Question:
What is the Prize for the winners?
Answer:
Because 100% of the Registration fee is split between the 3 winners, the total prize money amount cannot be determined until after all the poolies have signed up and paid. In the case of last year, there were 26 poolies, totaling $520. It was split $400 for the winner, $100 for 2nd place and $20 for 3rd place.
However in 2003 there were 3 ppl tied for the top spot. In the case that the 3 winners are all tied the total amount is split 3 ways. If there was a winner in last years case, and then 2 poolies tied for 2nd. The winner would get $400 and the 2 tied would total the 2nd and 3rd prizes and split down the middle. $100 + $20 = $120 /2 = $60.
If everyone in the pool ended up with the same amount of points at the end of the season we would split the total prize and get our money back.
