an interesting thought....be careful when giving handicaps. Be clear on how much each player is paying per point.
For example, Player A might pay $1.50 per point, and Player B pays $1.00 per point. Or Player A might pay 1.00 per point, and Player B pays $0.67 per point.
Player B has the potential for a scam here, if this issue is not absolutely clear! If he wins, he tries to claim $1.50 per point. If player B loses, he tries to pay $0.67 per point! If he can get away with it, his actual handicap is not 3-2, but rather 9-4!!!!
If you are player A and see player B taking the cube with only 11.11% winning chances....there might be a skunk in the room
