5 minute rule (the updated food dropping game!)

We all know about the (scientifically unproven) "5-second rule" that claims that as long as a piece of food that has been dropped on the floor is picked up within 5 seconds, it is 'safe to eat'.

Well this is the TBG version. Players will "drop a piece of food" each time they post, and if the next poster posts within 60 seconds, they get to "eat" the food, gaining 1 point. Please keep a track of how many points you have in each post.

Twist!: Once you have gained a few points, you can 'bet' these points. How do you do this? Instead of dropping a piece of "food", you can drop some of your points (you choose how many, but no more than the total points you have!). If someone picks it up within 5 minutes, they gain those points and you lose them. If not, you get your dropped points back doubled! So if you had 5 points and bet 3 points, but nobody picked them up within 5 minutes, you would end up with 8 points!

I'll start:

I drop a piece of cake!

EDIT: So the new game changes from 60 seconds to 5 minutes, since it was too hard to get points with the 60 second rule.
