Title: Masters Golf sweat & bants thread. Post by: tikay on April 05, 2018, 01:45:14 PM Thought I'd start this to keep it separate from the Tipster Comp thing, which is currently & metaphorically out of bounds at the first.
To avoid aftertiming accusations, & to get us started with some hilarity, here's my little small stakes portfolio, all EW. Rose Bubba Fleetwood Matsuyama Adam Scott Patrick Cantlay Dustin Johnson Assuming 1 point stakes, they are all 1 pointers except Rose which is 2 points. And when you've finished laughing, how about posting your selections? Title: Re: Masters Golf sweat & bants thread. Post by: typhoon13 on April 05, 2018, 01:55:03 PM 10 points ew the Rat 125/1 13 points ew Noren 45/1 15 points ew Rose 15/1 All 1/5 1-8 Title: Re: Masters Golf sweat & bants thread. Post by: Knottikay on April 05, 2018, 02:09:16 PM Garcia - 2pts e/w
P. Reed - 2pts e/w C. Schwartzel - 1pt e/w Jason Day - 2pts e/w And a couple of nostalgia bets..... Tiger - 2pts e/w Poulter - 1pt e/w Title: Re: Masters Golf sweat & bants thread. Post by: Marky147 on April 05, 2018, 02:15:58 PM Rickie Fowler
Paul Casey Patrick Reed Patrick Cantlay Leggoooooooo! Title: Re: Masters Golf sweat & bants thread. Post by: doubleup on April 05, 2018, 02:36:47 PM Thought the bookies odds were the worst ever. All this 1/5 odds is bollocks. As a result I only found one decent imo bet - stenson @ 45-1 8 places 1/5 odds. Might have a look for an anti-rail in the top ten market if the betfair exchange is liquid. ie lay someone who is well odds on. Title: Re: Masters Golf sweat & bants thread. Post by: bookiebasher on April 05, 2018, 02:41:52 PM Mickelson and Rose for me although I do fear Spieth who has the lowest scoring
average around Augusta , admitadly a small sample compared to Woods who is 2nd in the list. Title: Re: Masters Golf sweat & bants thread. Post by: Omm on April 05, 2018, 03:11:10 PM Bubba

2pts EW Tiger @19/1(odds boost for fish) 2pts EW Xander Schauffele @100/1(form has been crap in the few weeks since I placed this) 2pts EW Jimmy Walker @90/1 top yank(really like this as long as his illness doesn't recurr) 1pt EW Pieters @80/1 1pt Win Jimmy Walker @300/1 1pt Win Tyrrell Hatton @110/1 1pt Win Matt Fitzpatrick @280/1 1pt Win Ross Fisher @410/1 I think that covers my portfolio Title: Re: Masters Golf sweat & bants thread. Post by: Karabiner on April 05, 2018, 06:00:27 PM My 400/1+poke Ross Fisher double-bogeys the first but then birdies the 2nd and 3rd to get back to even par - bouncebackability - goooo Rosscoe.
Title: Re: Masters Golf sweat & bants thread. Post by: tikay on April 05, 2018, 06:06:28 PM Late last night, I worked my way through the various sites I read so as to make my Masters Golf selections.
Amongst those were Tighty's Road to Riches, who tipped Leishmann at 60/1. I always back the Road to Riches stuff & have done very well from them, God bless Tighty & B-E. This morning I was rushing about a bit with stuff Next Door, but placed all my bets, mostly with Sporting Bet & PP. Then got on with my daily routines. Just started watching the Red Button & was chuffed to see my man Mark Leishmann leading at -3. I mean, it barely matters at this stage, but at least I've got a proper 60/1 sweat which might last a day or two. Or three or four. Then I opened this thread to see who else I had & at what price. No sign of Leishmann. Checked my Sporting Bet & PP Accounts, nope & nope. (http://i.imgur.com/mHdDjQf.jpg) (https://imgur.com/mHdDjQf) Title: Re: Masters Golf sweat & bants thread.

I did exactly the same thing! Title: Re: Masters Golf sweat & bants thread. Post by: tikay on April 05, 2018, 06:59:05 PM Incred :D I did exactly the same thing! Story checks out. It's a weird feeling, was really revved up at the prospect of a good sweat, now every time he makes a shot I'm kinda half hoping he shanks it. If he leads for 4 days it's gonna be a painful watch.

LOL! I'll just hope he comes 2nd, to one of my selections. That way Tighty gets paid, and so do I :D Title: Re: Masters Golf sweat & bants thread.

Title: Re: Masters Golf sweat & bants thread. Post by: Royal Flush on April 05, 2018, 07:58:19 PM Had a go on Moore at 80's when his price hadn't changed for day 1 leader when he was -2 after 2. Didn't work out so well for me.
Heart is all in on Tiger, money is on Rory. Title: Re: Masters Golf sweat & bants thread. Post by: tikay on April 05, 2018, 07:58:59 PM what time is the live stuff starting ? Sandy has dropped off leaderboard and we might not get to see him again if it dont start soon 8pm, but I'm watching the Red Button live coverage and it's excellent, they have the USA feed without Miss Shriek and all the bloody waffling that they do on Sky proper. No adverts, either. Title: Re: Masters Golf sweat & bants thread. Post by: nirvana on April 05, 2018, 07:59:31 PM D Johnson Reed ew Leishmann ew Moore ew Good luck with Johnson, Reed and Moore.

Post by: 4KSuited on April 05, 2018, 08:03:18 PM Did a few for Day 1 only for a hoped-for-insta-sweat:
Brendan Steele - already dead in the water... Dustbin @ 18/1 ew Luis Oost @ 50/1 ew Adam Scott @ 50/1 ew Leishman @ 40/1 ew Adam Hadwin & 90/1 ew - been watching this fellow Canadian for awhile, and couldn't resist a dabble. Got him overall too, but he usually starts better than he finishes GL all! Title: Re: Masters Golf sweat & bants thread. Post by: tikay on April 05, 2018, 08:19:58 PM Poor Sergio, looks like he used up his luck last year, been in the water twice already on this par 5. Title: Re: Masters Golf sweat & bants thread.

Sergio should get some tips from Jordy. Title: Re: Masters Golf sweat & bants thread. Post by: tikay on April 05, 2018, 08:22:26 PM No worries, a good putt and he can make a 13. Title: Re: Masters Golf sweat & bants thread. Post by: Karabiner on April 05, 2018, 08:24:27 PM Personally not a Sergio fan but that is humiliating - i wonder what he served for dinner last evening.

cancel all plans! Title: Re: Masters Golf sweat & bants thread. Post by: Karabiner on April 06, 2018, 06:46:38 PM This morning I felt as though this year's Masters might turn into a boring procession for Spieth but all of a sudden a golf tournament has broken out.
It seems we'll all have decent sweats for a while. PS Around £15K matched from 2.66-2.8 for Spieth on betty last night. I couldn't resist a dabble on Justin Thomas @55 with his history of storming back into contention. Title: Re: Masters Golf sweat & bants thread.

I'm really getting into golf the last few years. Wouldn't have anything to do with how much punting is involved, obv. Title: Re: Masters Golf sweat & bants thread.

Post by: POWWWWWWWW on April 09, 2018, 11:33:27 AM How good is John Rahm. He had completely lost his head after the 16th and still manages to play some stunning golf. You could see how badly he wanted to win, and the moment he realised the chance had slipped away from him. I'm positive it won't be long till we see him win a major.
