Rules

On each hole, a player is designated as the Banker to play simultaneous 1v1 matches with the rest of the players in the party. On the first tee, the banker is chosen by the party. After the first hole, the banker is always the player with the lowest score on the previous hole (tiebreak is longest putt made).

On the tee, the players each pick a wager for their individual match with the banker. The minimum wager is 5 points and the maximum wager is chosen by the banker on each hole, normally up to 100 but this is configurable in-app. All players will then hit their tee shots, with the banker teeing off last. On the tee, players confident in their tee shot can press their bet which doubles the bet on non-par 3s, which triples.

After each player tees off, they can press their bet with the banker for this matchup. All player presses must be made before the banker tees.

Once the banker tees, they can press back, but it will press everyone.

NOTE - On Par 3s, all presses must be called while the ball is in flight and wagers are tripled instead of doubled.\n\nAt the end of the game, players in the negative will be indebted to those in the positive!

Good luck and play responsibly!

Example

Bob starts as the Banker. Banks wagers 25 with Bob, while Kevin and Kyle wager 40 and 60, respectively.

  • Banks hits his tee shot first, which he feels went poorly so he doesn't press.

  • Kevin tees next and ends up center fairway and presses Bob. This takes their wager from 40 to 80.

  • Kyle tees third and also hits a great shot, so he presses Bob as well to increase their wager from 60 to 120.

  • Bob tees last and outdrives everyone else, so he presses all other players. This now makes his wager with Banks becomes 50, Kevin becomes 160, and Kyle becomes 240.

They play the hole out where Bob beats Banks and Kevin, but loses to Kyle. Scoring will be

  • Bob gains 50 and 160 from Banks/Kevin, but loses 240 to Kyle for a net-30.

  • Banks is -50.

  • Kevin is -160.

  • Kyle is +240.

For this particular example, Kyle ended up incredibly well in 1st place, with Bob 2nd, Banks 3rd, and Kevin in 4th.

Play will continue like this for each hole. It's important to note that point allocation on each hole should always be net zero.
