(Also known as [alternateNames])
HOW TO PLAY
In Let it Ride, players earn points form various scores on each hole. After each hole, players have to decide whether they would like to bank their points or Let it Ride and carry their points to the next hole. For every score carried into a hole, the potential point values are doubled for that hole, but if a player earns a double bogey or worse, he automatically loses all of the points riding on that hole. The base point values are typically:
As an example, if a player scores three bogeys in a row without banking, and then banks his total after the third hole, he would add 5 + 10 + 20 = 35 points to his total.VARIATIONS & PRESSES
