Weekly pick'em, with three ways to score it.

Players pick every game on the slate. You choose how it's scored: the classic confidence pool, a crowd-weighted version where unpopular correct picks score more, or a market where every pick has a price. Head-to-head matchups, late swap and a live Sunday board come with all three.

A simulated NFL week 5 is playing in real time, starting with the Sunday 1:00 games. Switch between Classic, Crowd and Market scoring at the top of the board. The same picks are scored all three ways.

Scoring

Same picks, scored three ways.

Operators pick the scoring that fits their players, or run more than one in the same pool. The picks screen, head-to-head, tickets and prizes work the same in all three.

Old school

Classic

  • Pick every game straight up
  • Rank your picks 14 down to 1 by confidence
  • A correct pick scores its confidence number, 105 for a perfect week
  • Monday night total is the tiebreaker

In between

Crowd

  • Pick every game straight up
  • A correct pick scores 100 minus the share of the pool that made it
  • Winning with a team 80% of the pool took scores 20. Winning with one 15% took scores 85.
  • Ties almost never happen

Market

  • Every side of every game has a price from 1 to 99
  • Players get 1,000 coins a week, and a correct pick pays 100
  • Score is cash plus what your picks are worth live
  • Buy and sell any game until it kicks off

01

Every week is a new matchup

Each player gets one opponent a week from their league. Only the games you disagree on decide it, and standings are wins and losses. Someone who had a bad September still has a reason to submit in November.

02

Picks lock at kickoff

Each pick stays open until its own game starts. Players come back Sunday morning after the injury news, and a bad 1:00 window can be fixed in the 4:00 games.

03

Sunday is worth watching

The board shows every game with your pick, how much of the pool is on each side, and which games decide your matchup. It sends an alert when the pool's favorite is losing.

Picks

Make your week 5 picks.

Thursday's game already locked. Everything else stays open until kickoff. Switch the scoring to see the same slate as a confidence sheet, with pool percentages, or with prices.

Week 5 · 14 games

Head-to-head

A league inside the pool.

Players are split into 12-team leagues with a weekly schedule. Every week is a fresh 0-0 matchup, the top six make the playoffs in December, and the whole pool still competes for the weekly and season prizes.

Quick pick

Two fast ways in for players who won't pick 14 games.

Scratch a card to reveal your teams, or spin five reels. Either way the player has five picks in under a minute, and they settle on the same week 5 results as everyone else. If you came here from Scratch & Pick or Slot Machine Pick'em, this is where they live now.

At the counter, the scratch card prints with its teams already set and the player scratches it on their phone after scanning the QR code. The reels run on the kiosk screen and print the five picks on a ticket.

Free to play

Free entry, with prizes the operator or a sponsor puts up.

No entry fee. A sportsbook can use it to bring players back every week of the season. A media company can add its on-air talent as an entry and reward anyone who beats them.
