Okay we're all done! With 34 entries, one less than the Hearts pool! So we have 4 top prizes! Here goes then: Our 1st place finisher was Ken M.! As "Hit the #*(@$ Broom"! And yes, he won the Hearts too! He wins $82.50! That's 50% of the top prize pool! Our 2nd place finisher was Mark! As Marco Polo! He scored $41.25, or 25% of the top prize pool! Third prize went to Brad (Supper's Ready)! His prize is $24.75, that's 15%; and in fourth we had... Mark again! As Mr. Magic! 4th prize is $16.50, or 10% of the top prize pool! That covers the top prize pool of $165! And with 21 or more entries in our pool, we have a last place prize. For the poor unglückliche who ends up dead last. They get their money back, $5.00! Making them feel infinitely better! And that was… Ed! Way to go! So that completes the total prize pool of $170! (34 x $5.) One last note, for display purposes, the standings are sorted first by total points, then by number of wins, and finally alphabetically. But for purposes of prizes, it is points and points only that are used to determine or break ties. (See curling pool rules doc for full details of prize distribution for ties.) So thanks for playing, everybody! You made it another big one! Watch for a possible bonus World pool or two! Might happen. We shall see!
