Scratch the 1st, 2nd, 3rd idea. We could have too many each. Give the winner the whole pot.

Now regular pickems the 1st, 2nd, 3rd is a good way to award players.

I have no idea what's the right number, but just throwing numbers on the board

1st = 1000
2nd= 500
3rd = 250
I agree with these numbers should I tell him these are the numbers we will use

There are normally a lot of ties for the weekly high score.

ESPN looks like the best option. If the XenForo add-on was going to be installed here it would have been done by now.

There is a tiebreaker when there is a tie.

Also

Can i get more vcash if I bet $7.77 and lose?
Yes, unless the default function has been switched off. By default there's a 'give to poor' function in the Sportsbook settings for those that have zero cash. It's probably $100 or $200 and there's a minimum waiting time, which will be from 7 to 28 days. However, if you have $7.771468 or something you won't be able to bet the fractions of a cent and your total might not register as zero.

When I ran it on another site we'd have an annual reset, give everyone X amount of dollars, with a weekly top-up for everyone...then run the Sportsbook as a competition. Every site does things differently.
