Start Your Own NFL Playoffs Pool
Software is readily available to help you run your own NFL Playoff pool, whether from the office, university or simply among friends and family. Gambling911.com recommends the Joe Montana-backed PlayBalto.com for the most modern pool software and pick'ems contests.
Pools typically work this way:
Each member chooses ONE NFL team each week, keeping in mind you are not permitted to the same team again. With an NFL Playoff pool you will pick one team before each round that you believe will win. These picks are Straight Up (not Against The Spread).
If your selection wins, you move on to the next round, if your pick loses, you’re out. Last person standing wins. With PlayBalto.com there are 20+ ways managers can customize the NFL Playoff pool.
Admin fee: Just $1 per entry.
The pools only take a few minutes to set up.
