Looking forward to this on Thursday. Interesting to see how Tiger does. For the first time in some time he is not odds-on to win, currently around 9/2. I think that will shorten as some money goes on him

 

Ernie Els is about 13/1 after winning 2 of last 3 on US Tour.

 

Ian Poulter a tempting 35/1.

 

Scotbet are paying e/w down to 6th - most others I can find are only offering 5.

My most favoritest tournament of the year. Love Augusta, so gorgeous this time of year, mad crazy greens, love it.

 

Reckon the Tiger will do OK, probably a mid table finish, possibly top 20.

 

As for who's gonna win it, lord knows!! Wide open. Porridge is about 16's iirc, W******d (s'up) is a cheeky punt at 24/1 on Paddy Power. He's won me a bob or two in the past and may tempt me once more...

Scatter gun preped....

 

Y.E. Yang to be top ROW 14s on Betfair, also a trade of 170 to win.

 

Ryan Moore 1.83 to make the cut and another little trade price at 150 to win

 

Goose to win at 26.

 

Nick Watney e/w at 65

 

Anthony Kim at 4.2 for a Top 10

Wouldn't write the Big Easy off. If his new stance really has solved his putting problems of the last few years his move to US has chilled him out.

 

Would love "our boy" Tiger to pull this one off, what a melt-down story that would make.

 

Casey - is he back to his full swing yet? Did Poulter peak too soon this season?

 

Will Kaymer bore the course into submission?

 

If I could bet down here I'd go Tiger, Els or Lefty, with Els shading it.

 

From our side, I think Lee will give it our best shot. 8 hours effing time difference to Augusta though and the effing Fox Sports (Adverts every 30 seconds) channel

Fred Couples 100/1 e/w

 

Freddie now 16/1. Basically I have 25/1 to come in the top 6. Pretty happy with this at the moment. Will probably all go horribly wrong, mind!

Great start for Lee W

 

Can't write his surname as it's filtered :-)

 

I noticed that but I must be particularly dopey today as I can't figure why ? Is it Est or Wood or the combination !?

Anyway he is on 5 under along with Watson, Mickelson, Yang and Choi. Couples in lead on his own at 6 under.

 

4 under- Woods, Kim, Poulter, Watney

3 under - Immelmans, Toms, Lyle, Schwartzel and Scott

 

Of the others mentioned in this thread:

 

Els - 1 under

Weir- 1 under

Ryan Moore- Level

Stricker - 1 over

Goosen - 2 over

Harrington- 2 over

Casey- 3 over

Tim Clark- 3 over

Kaymer - 4 over

Cink- 4 over

Duval - 4 over

Furyk- 8 over

W e s t w o o d is modern slang for see you next Tuesday. Originations said to be from the bell ringing clown down the road.

 

All my stakes are laid back, will sit back and cheer on my team. Come on Yang!!!! ;)

Relatively happy with my 3 horses, W/Wood and Poulter (taken at 18's and 35's respectively) and Casey - altho Casey from being in a very good position decided to drop 6 shots in the last 3 holes so think i can discard him from the shake up.

Don't think Bungle is one to lay a bet TBH I would too though ! Nice safe profit, and then enjoy :D

 

Not layed a bet before. If someone tells me what I need to do I will try to consider it later on tonight (damn election is getting in the way of my profit making!!).

If you don't have one open up a Betfair account, I can refer you if you like and we can share the commission they give me - £25 in credit I think would have to check that.

 

Currently you can "Lay" Fred at 25 (24/1) to win.

 

Say you have £10 at 100/1 potential return is £1010. You could lay the £10 back at 25 which would potentially cost you £250 but you now have a free bet on Fred to win £750. You could also decide to up the stake of the lay and therfore guarantee a profit. (Hope I'm not stating the bleeding obvious).

Worth mentioning it's an ew bet, I'm not sure if you can lay place bets but personally I would not bother and hope if he doesn't win he places so it's a winner all round!

Oh and with lay betting nothing is obvious if you have never done it !

In which case I'd be tempted to lay the value of the E/W stake on Fred to win, especially as Bungle has place to 6th.

Effing TV coverage down here STARTS at midnight each day, and they call it LIVE groan grumble moan and of course being offshore cannot get Beeb video streams, So that means a day of googling feeds tomorrow.

 

Interesting Top of the Leaderboard. Will the lads feed off each other?

Great to see Tom Watson have a godd day yesterday - he was magical down here with a top 10 finish, don't write him off from something similar.

 

Not surprised Rory is fading, let's just say it was noticable that he's discovered beer & blondes

Lol. Even Lee West_wood falls foul of the swear filter because of TCWTB! :lol:

 

Clearly very sensitive ! Someone had to explain to me why it got filtered, now I understand smiley-think006.gif

What an amazing 35 minutes of golf that was with Eagles going in all over the place.

 

Well done Lee for hanging in there. Let's hope Lefty has used up all his magic & the Metronome is back tomorrow.
