The system includes a physical game configured to accept physical input from a player and generate performance outcome data representing outcomes of the physical game. The wagering system comprises a processor and memory and the memory contains machine readable code executable by the processor which receives the performance outcome data and accepts a wager to establish a wagering event for the player of the physical game.
