Among the myriad ways to enliven your Oscar viewing experience, the In Memoriam montage pool may be the only one entitling you to cry and win big money simultaneously.

It all depends on the high-rolling natures of your fellow partygoers and the seemingly random structure of the evening's most garish emotional spectacle. As per custom, the montage features actors, directors, producers, writers, composers and various other talent who passed away between Feb. 1 and Jan. 31; the Academy made an exception last year for Heath Ledger, while infamously snubbing Brad Renfro and bumping Roy Scheider to this year.

Similar omissions and celebrity politics are sure to ensue Sunday night, and we've conveniently commodified them here — on a points basis — for your wagering pleasure. Print and share, choose wisely — and good luck!
