Welcome to the 2012 UEFA Euro Cup pool!

There are 46 entries in the pool, so first prize will be $230, if it goes to a single person.  2nd and 3rd prizes will be $115 and $105, respectively, with $10 up for grabs for the person with the lowest score.  Points will be awarded as follows:

  • 1 point for each team advancing to the Elimination Round from each Group
  • 1 point for correctly picking the 1st or 2nd place standing of each advancing team
  • 3 points for the winner of each match in the Elimination Round, except the final
  • 6 points for picking the Euro Cup Winner

The best possible scores are:

  • Group Matches: 16
  • Elimination Round: 18
  • Euro Cup Winner: 6
  • Grand Total: 40

All entries have been posted at this link. Please check your picks carefully to make sure they are correct!!

It looks like GER is, by far, the favourite to take the cup.  Here’s he way it looks.

I will send an update at the end of the group stage, for sure.  Maybe earlier.

I’m new to this “wordpress” thing, but I think you should be able to add comments, if you feel so inclined.

Hope you enjoy the games and may the odds be ever in your favour.
