🎲Monte Carlo

How It Works

Two teams of two play. On each hole, instead of placing scores side-by-side like Vegas, each team multiplies their two net scores together. E.g. net scores of 3 and 4 become 12; scores of 5 and 6 become 30.

Winning Each Hole

The team with the lower product wins the hole. The difference between the two products is the number of points won. E.g. 12 vs. 30 = 18 points for the winning team. Because scores multiply, the swings are far more dramatic than Vegas.

Options & Variations

Bet-per-point (default $1). Birdie doubles (on) multiplies the hole ×2 and eagle triples (on) ×3, judged on Gross or Net via the birdie-type toggle (default Net). Optional max-score cap (double/triple bogey) contains a multiplied blow-up. Assign Team A / B; handicaps use Index on Low HC (on) with a percentage (default 100%).

Payouts

At the end of the round, the total point difference is multiplied by the dollar-per-point rate. The losing team pays the winning team the total.

Pro Tips

• Keeping both partners in play matters more than in Vegas — one big number multiplies the whole team.
• A birdie on a low-product hole (e.g. 3 × 3 = 9) combined with the ×2 multiplier is a massive swing.
• Set a max score cap unless you want a single triple-bogey to decide the round.
