I understand that this gives away a larger vig to the house, but this, for me, is the most fun...read moreShuffle Up and Tee Off25 June 2008 The World Series of Golf, a unique athletic competition that combines the wagering format of Texas Hold'em Poker with the skill of golf, is gathering momentum on the world sports stage.
