Hey there UD, interesting post. I am curious how many you end up getting IN. I would be interested with further info. I am playing OLG Proline (all offerings) since day one... so I get your approach to this and have seen similar concepts fail in the long run, but it happens. My only issue is that if there are too many people, potential OLG payouts are diluted in theory. Are you capping participants? Also to cash in large sums, there is a new legal process (along with Covid restrictions). Anyway, if you want to reach out to explore, please do. thnx B
Hey SPFreak, thanks for the reply. Right now I have 21 people interested. Now you know how that goes, I would be shocked if half of those signed up and even more shocked if they continued to play the following week once they realize how hard it is to win.
I’m here to win the bigger pots. Not the $400-$500 pots but that 10k + pots.
Where my approach may be different is I have a weekly contract that must be signed so all money is secure each week and you have the choice to play or sit out depending on the week and your finances that week. Eventually I would like a solid group of guys to commit but I’m not expecting that to start.
When I do roll call on Thursday I message everyone and if you’re in that week you tell me how much you want to play for. I then tally all the money we will have that week for boxes, so say for example with everyone’s money we get up to $640 - 7 boxes. If you committed $60 of that you would be eligible for just under 10% of the payout if we won. That’s because that’s the percentage you put in towards our weekly total.
Yes 100% the more people the more splits but I think what you’re putting in is equal to what percent you’re getting out and I think that’s fair.
Eventually I may cap participants if need be but let’s see what kind of weekly numbers we can bring in first.
Not sure what the covid protocol is now but I know from before pick ups are made in Toronto which is close to me and you must know what store you got the winning ticket at. This isn’t a problem as I staple receipts to the back of every ticket I get to make sure I never forget.
Anyways, I’ll shoot u a dm as well.
thanks for the inquiry !!
