Once again a wide range of predicted results, with Poole to score between nought and four goals and concede any number up to and including three.
By a strong margin, Poole netting twice was the most popular, with fifteen players set to benefit if they did.
Scorpio went into the break looking at a nine pointer with a 0-0 prediction, until Tony Lee slotted in the penalty passing the pressure on the wallyred and Shebell38.
Did they want the Dolphins to stick and gain them nine points, or push on and consolidate their lead? Only their consciences will know the answer to that, but the soft equaliser saw to it that the former would have to wait for the second maximum, the latter a first.
Four other players stepped into the limelight with a potential nine points coming their way, davidharfield44, ellisgs and DurhamDolphin on their maiden maxis, ballboy seeking a second big haul, whilst if the score stayed like that scorpio would get some consolation for the right result as to would the "two-allers" of dorsetsteve, petedhatter, parky64, stroller, bilko and welshdolphin.
Equally, bramley, peptalk, oakley and happyhammer would gain points for Poole's right score and expat, paultapner, james, markv, bearwoodbob, uptonogood, ursula, canforddolphin and melvyn being on song with the Police - one of these two sets of players on the brink of nine points should another goal go in.
Of course, despite some chances, it didn't and so the final statistics show:
