Seriously doubt ill bet this week.
Masters time means time to return to the golf bets.
Already have
fred couples in my portfolio for
1 pt ew@125s from ages bk, now with 6 places available and 150s around i'm already saying grrrr.
Just added woods, the 12-1 price seems unreal especially with the 6 places available ew. The guy is ALWAYS around at augusta, i cannot see him not giving me a sweat here. Mick's resurgance in form and great form at the crse is prob a major fact in the woods price too, well yeah phil will challenge but most still wont. You can either play this crse well or u cant at all-dsnt seem much in btwn, and ill take the proven form here all day long. Backed it now as i only seee his price coming in before thursday.
2.5 pts ew Tiger Woods@12-1 (first 6 places)
Balance=84.60 points.Keep on adding to my stable, best stop now or i'll have backed half the field by thursday.
It's all about the sweat and i reckon i shld get a few with these.
Already on:
1pt ew Fred Couples@125-1
2.5 pts ew Tiger Woods@12-1 (first 6 places)
Balance=84.60 points.Just added the following:
1pt ew Angel Caberra@110-1 (First 6 places)
0.5 pt ewX4 Jonathan Byrd@150-1 (First 6 places)
Ricky Barnes@175-1 (First 6 places)
Mark Wilson@200-1 (First 6 places)
Jhonatthan Vegas@250-1 (First 6 places)I've also backed these guys in their respective best of categories:
Top USA- 0.5 pt ew x 4 Jonathan Byrd@80-1 (First 4 places)
Ricky Barnes@75-1
Mark Wilson@80-1
Fred Couples@60-1 Top ROW 1pt ew Angel Caberra@20-1
0.5 pts ew Jhonatthan Vegas@40-1 Balance now 71.6 points.Ok here's the reasoning behind my picks.
I'm a big believer in going with course form at augusta, and have done so with woods and caberra- but the main reason i've backed both is because i think both are big value at the prices. I thought similar of couples, although admittedly am wavering a little now.
However with my 4 big priced outsiders, i'm backing potential and the ability to carve out a result, i gen believe all 4 are gen winners, without having failed at this course massively, and importantly non bottlers, something i find very important when looking at criteria.
Wilson is a big day player, vegas could be anything, byrd seems a fighter and barnes beyond being super talented has 2 reasonable places in his 2 starts here.
Anyway i feel all these bets are nice value punts, just am worried that i'm laying out too much cash on this, so unless something special appears, that'll be my lot!
Gl all,
Ok so right now i have angel going strong at 110-1 ew, and in the rest of the world market too at 20's, also tiger at 12-1-hopefully he'll place top 6 for me as he really doesn't look like a winner right now, so so dissapointed in his round today.
Freddy has a chance of placing top 5 for me at 125-1 ew, and i'm also sweating a top usa punt on him at 60's, ricky barnes has thrown it away( -6 to -2 on back 9) and bar a barnstomer even looks out of the top usa market for me.
Anyway waffling now, just to say i've added two more to my stable.
Reasoning is that bar rory this is wide, wide open, and it's great the books still bet top 3. Bar at a major we'd be top 2 with an odds on shot available.
Thus place is value and i can literally see anyone from -3 up challenging for the two positions most likely behind the northern irishman.
I've backed two with pedigree and who knows, a rory bottle job-don't think will hpn nor bar moneywise want to see this, they cld even with a 65 or something win the damn thing.
Neither will have anything to lose, one will crucify every par 5, the other could do likewise while having every shot in the book. I just think 16.5-1 and 25-1 on them to make the top 3 respectively is too big. Obv ignoring win part!!
1 pt ew Bubba Watson@66-1 (top 3, 1/4 odds-lads)
1 pt ew Phil Mickleson@100-1
Balance=67.6 points.Edit- Good old ladbrokes have now changed those last bets to 1/5 the odds, not for the first time they change the rules to suit themselves.
