"5-Man Amigos" works good

On each hole every one tees off

Two players on the left play the two players on the right.

Each team puts their score together. If team left gets a 4 and a 5 their team score is 45.

If team right gets a 5 and a 7 their team score is 57.

Team left wins the hole 45 to 57 and each player on the left team wins 12 "dimes" from each of the players on the right team.

The 5th player (who is in the middle after the tee shot) joins the winning team if he pars, the losing team if he bogeys or worse.

If he is on the winning team, the losing players each still lose 12 each but the winning side still only wins 24 (2 x 12) but it is split three ways or 8 "dimes" each.

Opposite happens when middleman bogeys or worse. ie each losing player loses 8, each winning player earns 12

If the middleman birdies the hole - he wins all of the dimes that the losing players owe.

If the winning team has a birdie the losing teams score is reversed ie birdie 3 bogey 5 for winning team = 35
par 4 doublebogey 6 for losing team = 64 which means 29 "dimes" for each winning player.

Eagles reverse and double

We also play carryovers if a hole is tied. Same partners are partners on the next hole in case of a tie and the money is doubled (that is when the big money is won or lost - a 4 hole carryover is not unheard of)

You usually end up with different partners each hole

Golf that requires a calculator is too hard :P
