Pick one team each week that you think will Win (for Winners Pool) or Lose (for Losers Pool). If the team you pick loses, you get eliminated from the pool. You can be let back in (if your Pool Admin allows). Ties count as a win or loss (depending on your Pool Admin setting). 10 Public Pool Etiquette Tips for Triathletes By Michael Nystrom Every pool has posted signs with various regulations to follow, but the unwritten rules of shared swimming areas are sometimes not as intuitive as you'd expect—especially for new swimmers or triathletes.

Please note I am not asking about an office 'bookie' or runner. I mean the person who runs the block-pool where you get the 2 numbers or the pick'em pool. The woman who runs the pool was mumbling that this is her last year for it as no one is tipping. I hit one of these pools only once and that was at a place where tipping was not expected since it was a super bowl party and no real work was involved. But the office person does go around and collect then run it. The people at my place seem to make it harder on themselves than they need to (ie: accepting credit players as long as they pay before kickoff. Where I come from you play a pick'em or block pool you pay when you book.) but if I won I'd give something.
But what? I think one 'block' is more than enough for a half or final score. That way they can play free and get a little cash. It is not supposed to be profit-making for them but I agree at the least they should play free. If they wanted over 5% I would call that crazy, if I want that kind of negative expectation I'll book a regulaar bet.
What does everyone think?If it's an office pool, the person running it should be happy that the boss doesn't object to them doing something like that on company time.
If it's a pool among friends, then, well, you're supposed to be friends.
Bottom line, no tips or free boxes.I third the motion of no tip. I've never heard of having to tip in these kinds of fun bets among friends. Another reason, the woman running it probably did it on company time, which is reward enough.

Consider this a warning. The next post like that and you'll be on suspension.Given that the person running the pool is probably spending part of their 'work day' administering, she should consider it a pleasure to do something different than her normal job. If she spends time outside of her workday doing it, maybe she has a case, but give me a break.
The way I see it, if she whines about the no tipping, as her manager, I would give her a menial job, like cleaning out the pucks in the men's urinals.
