Overview
- Circa Survivor began with 18,718 entries at $1,000 each, producing a record $18.7 million prize pool.
- Three entries were eliminated when the Buccaneers lost 20-17 to the Dolphins, after one went out on Christmas Day with Washington’s loss to Dallas.
- The six survivors advanced on picks of the Patriots (three entries), Bengals (two) and Giants (one).
- If all six entries survive Week 18, each would collect roughly $3.1 million; otherwise the remaining winners split the pool.
- Circa’s Derek Stevens said a contestant hedged a Christmas pick with a $1,181,000 moneyline bet on the Cowboys.
