Baby Gambling Pool Template
Now, there are many ways to run a betting pool of any type, and baby pools are no different. This particular template is set up to use a similar model as our baby pool website. It’s point-based: each of the baby’s stats (gender, birthday, time, weight, etc) earns points, so the closer your guess on each stat, the more points you earn.
Because it's always fun to bring a little gambling into the mix, we thought it would be fun to start a baby due date betting pool. So come and take a guess. Will Nicholas be early? Will he be late? Or will he come right on time? Due Date is March 29th, 2012RULES OF THE GAME
1. $2.00 per guess, feel free to enter multiple times.
2. Guess the day, hour and minute that you think Nicholas will be born (Central Standard Time)
3. Closest guess to the minute is the WINNER!
4. In the event of a tie, the winner is the person who chose the closest after the exact time of birth.
5. Half of the final pool goes to the winner, the other half goes to Nicholas' college fund.
6. If your date and time passes without the arrival of Nicholas, please feel free to try again.
7. If you don't want to use paypal and want to pay in cash, the money must be received before his arrival.

These are the questions we get asked the most. If you don't see your answer below, please contact us.
How is a winner determined?
Our scoring for each guess is weighted on a 100pt scale with 65% of the score based on date and time (minutes, hours, or days off in either direction), 25% on correct sex, 5% on height (inches off in either direction) and 5% on weight (ounces off in either direction). The closer you are to the actual specs of the little one in these categories, the higher your point total within each category for a maximum of 65, 25, 5, and 5 points respectively.
- 65 points: Birthday
- 25 points: Sex
- 5 points: Weight
- 5 points: Height
Can I change the weighting of the categories?
Custom scoring options are not supported at this time.
How does scoring work if the sex is already known?
If already known, the baby’s sex becomes ineligible to bet on. All pool participants will automatically receive the maximum number of points (25) for this category.
Do you allow multiple bets per person?
Yes, we do. You can place additional bets under the same email address. This means people who don’t have email addresses (such as children) can still take part in the pool.
Can I change my bet after I’ve made it?
Only pool admins and godparents have the ability to modify bets. The best way to change your bet is to ask an admin or godparent to do it for you, or you can submit a new one.
How do I add payment information?
Baby Bookie does not accept monetary bets at this time. If you would like to add a cash prize or collect donations, we recommend asking pool participants to send money via PayPal or Venmo. You can do this in the pool description when you set up a new pool.
