You need an invite code from your pool organizer. Open HotPick, tap Join a Pool, and enter the code. If you don't have a code, ask whoever set up the pool to send it to you.
Each week you pick the winner of every game. Correct picks earn +1 point. Your HotPick is your highest-conviction call — the game's algorithmically assigned rank (1–16) becomes the stakes. Correct HotPick = +rank points. Wrong HotPick = −rank points. Regular picks can never go negative.
Picks lock at kickoff for each individual game. Once a game starts, that pick is sealed — you can still change your picks on games that haven't kicked off yet.
Yes. You can join as many pools as you like. Your picks and scores exist at the account level — you make picks once and every pool you're in sees the same record. You never have to pick twice.
