A floor, a ceiling, and raises in between
Set what a point is worth and the most it can ever be worth. The scorekeeper can move it on any hole in between, usually because the team that's down asked. Pick no cap and it goes wherever your group takes it.
Sneakies never touches money. Whatever gets settled, gets settled between friends after the round.
