$10 TO WIN 1K IS A LOW RISK=HIGH REWARD SCENARIO. ACTION POINTS ARE A HIGH RISK=HIGH REWARD SCENARIO. UNDER ACTION POINTS, IF YOUR TEAM ROMPS THEN YOU WIN BIG, BUT IF YOUR TEAM GETS ROUTED THEN YOU WILL LOSE BIG. BE SURE YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU ARE GETTING INTO (HAVE THE BOOK EXPLAIN THE RULES THOROUGHLY) IF YOU ARE UNFAMILIAR WITH ACTION POINTS. ALSO CONSIDER A CEILING OR CAP WHICH WILL LIMIT BOTH THE WIN AND LOSS POTENTIAL.
