Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) about What is Pool Result.

If you are a serious football fan, you are probably planning to put a year’s worth of bragging rights (and at least some of your hard-earned cash) on the line this season in a football pool.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) about What is Pool Result

In this post, I am going to explore three strategy angles that will give you a much better chance to win your football pool

First of all, let’s get to know the real explanation of the pool result.

Until recently, pools results were traditionally published in most national newspapers a day or two after the Saturday on which the matches were played. Grids marking the points totalities for each game were sometimes published, against which a pools coupon could be aligned to read off the scores.

The British Broadcasting Cooperation television program Grandstand used to broadcast the winning match numbers and any Pools Panel verdicts as part of its Final Score segment in the late afternoon.

Only three people have so far announced the classified football results on the program since its inception in 1958: Len Martin until his death in the year 1995 and meanwhile, Tim Gudgin; Mark E. Smith, singer from the band The Fall, read out the classified football results on the British Broadcasting Cooperation’s Final Score programme as a one-off, as his band’s track Theme from Sparta F.C. was the program’s theme music. Pools news was also given out on the British Broadcasting Cooperation radio program Sports Report until May 2007.

With scores being read out on radio and television it was also common to relay the message “claims by telegram” for days when around eight score-draws occurred, through “claims by registered mail only” for days when rather more winners were expected, to “no claims” when there were likely to be so many claimants that the mail would have been overwhelmed.

With the emergence of internet-based pools games, the need for players to score their coupons was removed. Automatic scoring and payout are now standard on all internet-based pools games.

Detailed Explanation about What Pool Result Entails

Typically, a fraction of a penny would be charged for each line entered, though players often had the option to play each line at a higher stake and so collect a higher share of the pool should their line attest a winner. Consequently, players would usually submit many different lines in a single entry.

The largest prizes would be awarded when only one line was entered scoring the maximum number of points; typically, this would occur when only eight or nine matches ended in score draws, so only one player would have the line scoring the maximum.

In its present form, the Classic Pools game has a top prize of £3 million, separate to the pool prize that is given to the highest point scorer(s).

To secure this £3 million prize or a share of it, the punter must successfully guess the nine score draws (draws of 1–1 or higher) when these are the only score draws on the coupon.

With the emergence of the latest online pool’s games such as Premier 10 and Super 6, the overall pool size is less than the Classic Pools game, but the odds of winning a key prize are increased because fewer predictions are vital to complete a coupon and, also, fewer persons play each coupon.
