Timmy got the first streak this year with 6.  John followed with a 12.  Timmy is currently on an eight game streak.  (april 20th)


teddy, bran and sameer have not played yet this year so the good news is that they don't owe anybody, the bad news is that if they join they would have to get their streaks up past current leader john at 12.

Welcome to a new season of  Beat the Streak

For any new players here is how it works.  click the mlb link above and sign up for the Beat the Streak.  In it you pick a hitter each day from any team to get a hit.  start a hitting streak and beat the longest streak of our pool members to receive that amount of money of your streak*.  for example mike sica last year was the first to get a streak over 5, he got a 7 game hitting streak, and was awarded $7 from each member.  next, Joe Grimaldi got a 8 game hitting streak and was awarded $8 from each member.  click here to see last years winners.

*payouts begin with the first 5 game hitting streak

Additionally the mlb website pays $5.6 million dollars to anyone who beats Joe DiMaggio's 56 game hitting streak.  We have a deal with pool members that if anyone wins the 5.6 million, they will give fellow members $10,000 each, so we all have more chances.

 

2011 beat the streak pool

John Sica finishes with a bang!  13

check chart below to see what you owe.  send check to me and I will pay Tim and myself.  lets get a large group for next year to make for larger pool and more chances at the millions.

Timmy hits 11!

$10,000 bonus to each member from anyone who wins the 5.7 million.  player must have been in pool for all 57 games.

In this version of the mlb.com pool, we have a side bet going on between our group, The Second Chance Inn.

So far the first streak was by Michael Sica who had a seven game hitting streak.  therefore everyone who was in the pool when that streak started owes Mikey $7 each.  Next Joe G. got up to 8 games.  Next was Brian with 9. Then Timmy with 11. Whoever beats his streak will get paid the dollar amount of the length of the streak from each member of our group who was in the group at the start of the streak.

1st winner - Mike Sica 7
2nd winner - Joe G. 8
3rd winner - Brian Sica 9
4th Winner Timmy 11
5th winner John 13
