World Series of Gambling Decathlon

[josie_wales]

Hey all,

Next month, I am holding the first ever World Series of Gambling Decathlon (WSOGD).

It will be nine friends and myself (10 total) and the buyin will be $100.

All events will earn points on the following scale:
1st = 10 points
2nd = 8 points
3rd = 6 points
4th = 4 poitns
5th = 2 points

Payouts will be for winning an individual event, and prizes for 1st 2nd and third overall

The events will be:
1) Miniature Golf - 18-holes
2) Horse Racing - Start with $25 (separate from the $100 buyin) and you have 45 minutes to make as much as possible with 1x wagering requirements
Then it is on to my house for the remaining events:
3) NLHE - 10 man Tourney
4) BlackJack Tourney
5) Let it Ride Tourney
6) Bingo (During dinner)
7) Rocks Paper Scissors
8) Craps (yes, I built a table last year)
9) Pai Gow Tourney
10) Roulette (acquiring a wheel soon)

Why I am posting this is to gain any suggestions/alternatives to what I am listing above.

According to my calculations, it should run from 11am - midnight or so.

So, any suggestions on format, additional events?

Thanks
