How have you seen TD's handle un-won Ace Pool monies?
And, how do you feel about that?

most have a CTP and the closest 3 throws split it.

I've seen a few different ways to settle an unwon ace pot:

-full pot going to winner of a CTP throw off
-full pot going to the club or charity
-CTP throw off for half of the pot, the other going to the club or charity

I have no problem with either as long as it's advertised. Heck, even if it's not advertised they can do whatever they want with it. I gambled on my getting an ace. If I don't ace I don't expect to get any money.

The most common way is to have a throw-off CTP contest like described above.

We like to carry ace pots over from tournament to tournament (and league night to league night) held at our course. If it goes a while before it gets hit (our doubles pot is unhit at over $250 currently), the ace pool becomes a big attraction for even the small local tournaments.

We also have an ace pot that carries from event to event within our state series which got to over $300 at the end of last season. Makes for a good draw to event #1 of 2005. :p

I'd say the most creative way was by Dave McQuay.

He put up the list of names and threw three darts and whoever the dart hit, got the money
