Well, it turns out a grown adult can beat his young son in poker -- but it was closer than expected. (I did cut him slack in certain situations that were EV- to me, so the true margin is probably wider.) Really pretty good though! Tabulated results below.
Mom really needs to up her game in 2020!
We awarded points based on the number of chips in play (i.e., a bigger starting stack resulted in more points to be won). Some of the tournaments were ICM chops.
The background of my set up is in this thread.
My advice: the family that plays poker together, stays together.
