Full Sixes rules

Sixes

4 players. Also called Round Robin, Hollywood, Cha Cha Cha.

Sixes is a game for four players where the round is split into three six-hole matches and the partners change each time. Everyone partners with everyone once, so the result reflects the whole group, not a lucky pairing.

How to play

  1. Name the four players A, B, C and D. On holes 1 to 6, A and B play C and D.
  2. On holes 7 to 12, A and C play B and D. On holes 13 to 18, A and D play B and C.
  3. Each six-hole segment is its own match, scored by best ball by default. The side that wins more holes wins the segment.
  4. A tied segment is a push, or you can carry the stake to the next segment.
  5. Settle each segment at the stake per player and add the three results together.

Example

Stake 2 per player per segment. Segment 1: A and B win three holes, C and D win one and two are halved. A and B win the segment, so C and D each pay A and B 2. That is A +4, B +4, C -4, D -4.
