    Skybet are going 10 places......

  • #2
    That's incredible isn't it.

    Don't need that many places when you know the winner though .....

    So I need the places!

      I'm going to have a few darts when they are offering such good place terms. Oosthuizen is definitely going to be one of mine

          10 places is a great offer, Sky really are pulling out the stops these days.
          Naturally they're shorter that most others but I think they'll have to offer a little more price value to get the business by midweek so I'm holding on.
          My spies tell me it's a short track by comparison so you don't need a bomber to win here, weather looks breezy without creating too many issues and showers possible throughout the comp.
          Will be looking to back Koepke, Garcia and Stenson

            I've gone for:

            Speith 14s - SL and OC tipsters both strong cases
            Matsuyama 20s - Solid and surely wins one soon
            Fleetwood 22s - born in Southend, member at Birkdale, two wins this year ... He is way shorter than he should be but I can't get away from the story!
            Snedeker 70s - bit under the radar and tipped up too

              My squad consists of:

              Rahm 20/1 win only
              Garcia 20/1 ew
              Oosthuizen 55/1 ew
              Johnston 200/1 ew
              Westwood 75/1 ew & 70/1 ew 1st round leader.
              Grace 69/1 win only.

              I'll add one more tonight.

                Sned is a non runner.... swapped for Alex Noren 45/1 ew
                Added Garcia at 16/1 10 places and thought about the 12/1 5 places without Spieth, Rahm, Fowler, McIlroy, Johnson... might get paid out twice!

                  Also added Noren Kev. Took 50/1ew, 8 places

                    I saw those Sky prices without the top 5 Kev, thought they were OK.
                    Betfair (exchange) have a 10 place market and surprisingly it shows the Sky prices are better value.

                    Friday looks to be horrific with 20-40mph winds and showers all day, in situations like that I like getting against players in match bets who shoot big in R1 and have little/no chance of making cut, got a view they are non triers down the stretch and when up against playing partners who have everything to play for they have to be opposed...

                    Had a decent buy of the worse round at 87.5 too, someone will fall apart in the gales and shoot 90...

                          I bet you are. There is no way Spieth will let this slip.

                            Well that was intense!

                            Imagine if he learnt how to hit a fairway?!

                              What a great tournament. How Spieth came away with a 5 on the 13th I'll never know.
