my biggest bet was on the winner a couple of weeks before the tournament. bet was bigger than normal because i had the winner that week to  .

if ogilvy doesn't birdy 5 in a row on the back nine its significantly more, i've never seen anyone do that at the masters.

So total after Houston bets was 162, +24 return from Baddeley, balance is 186

FWIW, my Masters thoughts

I've already backed Kaymer and although I dont mind having him on my side am only luke warm on him now.. He is definately overpriced imo compared so some of the other market leaders, and if in contention obv has the minerals.  Win only has to be the play with the course doubts.  I read some stuff from some good judges suggesting his ball flight is too flat for Augusta, bit technical for me, but kind of makes sense given his record here compared with say his links record where a flatter ball flight is a big advantage.  He's the #1 in world though and is not the same player as in previous years so we'll see.  2pts win @ 20/1

My other pre tourny pick was YE Yang, who bombed in Houston and has since missed his flight on way to Augusta meaning a long car journey through the night apparently!!! Not sure what to make of that, but whatever.. Has some course form to call on, and was in decent nick early in the year 1pt EW @ 100/1
 
Had a good look over the weekend and ended up having a decent bet on Adam Scott. I really think he's going to have a big week. Tee to green he nailed everything last year, and it was only his putting that let him down - Which is generally his weakness, and I know you need to be hot with the putter to win this, but he's started using this broomstick and seems alot happier with it.. He had a good finish last time out at Doral with the new putter so who knows, he could get it going.  He's definately going to put himself in a position to make lots of birdies though so I'll take a chance @ 90/1 and 110+ on betfair.  I was a bit worried that he hadn't played for few weeks but found an article over the weekend saying he had been camped out a Augusta for last couple of weeks playing extra practice rounds instead of compettion.... Cant be a bad thing in my mind, and really think he's going to be challenging.  2pts EW @ 90/1
 
I've been swaying between getting with Watney or not... Price is short enough but might get involved.. He's got potential to shoot v low, so maybe back to lay material.  Still think he has questions to answer about getting the job done, despite doing me a favour in doral obv

Looking elsewhere.. I want to get Westwood beat in the gb and ireland market... poor fav imo


Kaymer and Yang were already included in total, -4 on Scott, new balance is 182pts

Pretty sick this morning, would of been monster payday if Scott had won... and ended up letting it all ride, which might or might not have been the best move, but whatever

Decent place return, and Gary Woodland came 3rd in the top deb market for a small return also

Congrats again Ace... Schwartzel holed some great putts under pressure, can I have my milkybar now pls?

Scott +47pts
Woodland +8pts

Running total:- 225pts

[moonandback]

haven't really looked that hard this week but had an interest, the euro is prob a no bet really, always tons of players at loads under this tourney and it doesn't favour any kind of player particularly, its just whoever gets a hot putter. Would love to back schwartzel but not at that price.
Euro
Simon Dyson
Oscar Floren
David Horsey

PGA - Not much idea really, the course suits these guys games so chucked em in, although Na and goydos have no current form which normally means i ignore them. Backing Kirk again after the horse has bolted probably, hope he goes off the boil again and i can back him at silly prices in a few weeks.

Paul Goydos
Chris Kirk
Kevin NA

[Karabiner]

Charley Hoffman ew @ 46 in The Texas Open is my sole interest this week.
