Bluegrass Poker
Flush
A few of my friends who are avid golfers and poker players were throwing around an idea of day long golf/poker tourney.
18 holes in the afternoon followed by a cookout followed by a poker tourney after dinner.
The logistics of planning it and doing it are easy. The hard part is trying to find a way to combine the two into one.
Initial thoughts are to have your golf score/finish correlate to the number of starting chips. We are all in agreement that we need to do this.
Obviously, we have to have an equitable system due to varying skill on the links. We have a few who are 2-4 handicap and a few more who have trouble breaking a hundred and the rest in between. We all know each other so no one is really going to be able to sand bag that much.
One idea was to reward net pars, birdies and eagles.
Another was to simply go by net stroke finish and 1st gets most, 2nd gets next most extra chips, etc.
A third idea was to set a target of 100 strokes. Each shot under net 100 gets you extra chips.
Anyone ever done anything similar? Ideas, thoughts or suggestions.
