Agreed completely.

Who's to say he didn't have him backed anyway?

I had Matsuyama backed last week when he blew up and backed bubba this week and he blew up, but I wouldn't post screenshots of my betslips to make the likes of you happy.

After timing is against the forum charter, a few of you could do with reading it.

Yes but if he claims he backed him, then he's backed him.

Back on topic:

2 Bet's for the US Open

Martin Kaymer 40/1 5 places 1/4 odds

Graham DeLaet 100/1 5 places 1/4 odds

New course seems to be all about GIR and Putting hence the 2 picks.

How about that for proof? Sorry if I offended anyone.

Pilsbury Doughboy

There are a few reasons why I might back a golfer on any given week, I don't tend to do write ups with my picks mainly due to laziness to be honest but just take it for granted it was due to one or more of the following!

Good course form
Good current form
Good value price ( I use https://sites.google.com/site/smartgolfbets/this-week, really is a great site and oddschecker, I tend to do most of my bets on a Monday or Tuesday as the good prices tend to get hoovered up after that IMO)

In the last few months I have opened up lots of accounts to enable myself to avail of the best prices and also to do E.W bets, before that I was just using BF and doing win only, it's good that I have got a lot of free bets from opening these accounts too, like recently I opened a Coral acct and it was bet 5 get a free 20 bet! Can't argue with that!

Sometimes I will persist with players who I think are due a win for a few weeks running even if they appear to be out of form, I will also back certain players purely because I just like them and If they win I wanna be on them! You also have some bombers courses and then you have the more strategic courses, I will try and find some info about courses too but I must confess it's not overly important to me.

I'm sure it's not a ground breaking strategy and all very obvious but maybe some people are being rubbed up the wrong way by not having any write ups with picks, so this is what goes through my head when betting, hope this helps!

Is this another lie? ya wouldnt mind quoting this incident?

bad run or not I am big enough and ugly enough to now the varience in golf betting can be huge but my record speaks for itself I have no need to throw any toys out of the pram to be honest. I love seeing guys like tomassie and nuri et al getting decent wins and couldnt really care less if someone has the winner or not if they aftertime. Now the poster in question most likely didnt know any better but will do for the future so that is a good thing but hypocrites like you I can't stand!

Another lie? What lies have I been telling? I'm a liar, bellend, hypocrite, and a ***** whatever that was so far today all because I called you a screenshot enforcer, I think you may have anger issues.

You must be very forgetful too if you don't remember the incident in question, maybe you get involved in that many screenshot incidents you can't distinguish between them. It's a real doozie of a story....

Anyway I 'claimed' I had backed Jim Furyk at 40/1 in a tournament I cant remember, some people posted that they had got 33/1 and 28's and 25's maybe, so being the gent you are you checked some sites and said the highest Furyk went was 33's, your spider senses tingled, you decided I must be full of it and a complete fantasist you were duty bound to demand that screenshot and advise me that people don't like when others get better prices than them, it winds them up when people 'claim' such prices.

I had no idea how to do a screenshot, you again kindly obliged me by linking me to google,from there I managed to crack the Da Vinci code and managed to produce a screenshot, I returned to the site like a returning olympian coming home with a gold medal, I posted the screenshot, I received the adulation from the crowd, my good name that was tarnished had now being cleared, I could now carry on posting on here with my head held high, a truly magnificent day, The End.

According to oddschecker the best price Furyk was on Monday was 33s

It doesn't particularly bother me as I have no involvement this week but getting the best price available is such a big part of golf betting, there is a big difference in getting someone at 40s or 25s so I can understand lads being pissed off have backed Furyk at 25s for then someone to claim they have 40s on the same guy.

Stop being so pedantic, you may not have directly asked me for it, but you harangued me into it by posting the above bs, I posted the screenshot for YOUR benefit, bob politely asked me for it and then accepted when I said I couldn't, you on the other hand had to stick your nose in, questioning my integrity is the same as asking for the screenshot you implied I was lying therefore you wanted the screenshot to prove I wasn't.

I'm done with you now, no point wasting time when it's nothing but drivel coming back from you.

So you were lying, i didn't demand a screenshot even though you had posted pre tournie!

I'm on a similar wavelength to you this week with Palmer and Jacobsen, I have availed of the 60/1 on PP for Jacobsen paying Top 6! But I dunno about Palmer yet, he seems such an obvious pick as in he was the first player I went to check the price on, I think he might be a touch low, I'll ponder that for a while yet.

Freddie Jac 60/1 E.W

DirtyLeeds14

Fancy Michael Hoey in the smaller European Tour event this week. He played well last week and has form winning these smaller tour events. 33/1 is not the best price though, will also do Simon Thornton in that event at 200/1. Also has won a smaller tour event before and was playing reasonably well the last couple of weeks apart from a disaster back 9 last Friday.

In the US Open I'll be on:

The Big Easy 80/1 (e/w)
Luke Donald 28/1
Ryan Moore 100/1 (e/w)

Gone for Freddie myself too.

Dolph Starbeam

FedEx St. Jude Classic

I'm saving most of my money for next week, going to follow most of you here with Freddie Jacobson, he skipped the US Open regional qualifier to concentrate on this event hoping to break into the top 60 in the owgr so he should will hopefully be at his best. Also going with two other small bets on players who are showing some good form.

Freddie Jacobson @ 60/1 e/w
Ben Martin @ 100/1 e/w
Andrew Svoboda @ 150/1 e/w

Freddie Jac 60/1 E.W

Right, I got the woman to set up a Coral Account this week for the bet 5 get 20 free bet offer!

To activate the bet I went for Shawn Stefani 2.50 E.W @ 100/1, he had a 7th place last year in this event and some half decent current form with two Top 5's in his last 10 starts. Speculative enough bet but a decent price I think.

Now the beauty of this for me is that Coral have top price on the previously mentioned Ryan Palmer at 25/1, so in what is essentially a freeroll I had 10 E.W on him.

Dolph Starbeam

Kuchar has withdrawn so a lot of prices have shortened already.

Fed Ex St Jude Classic Ryan Palmer & Dustin Johnson

Good luck folks

A lot more picks than usual but the outlay hasn't increased too much, trying a different strategy as such as previously I might have left out Wattel and Palmer due to the prices, have also done some extra First round leader bets to test out a bit of theory I have.

tomaussie

I've added HORSEY in Europe at 40/1 to Jacobson at 50/1 in America.

Added Matt Every too.

EW double too.

manafana

my pga tour and European tour picks this week in full

Two stands out in Europe

Gary Stal 66/1 bet365 – Played well at Wentworth. Has good GIR and driving stats. Actually won on the challenge tour in Austria before so why not open up at the next level.

Florian Fritsch 80/1 bet365 – Given a sponsors invite as a German Speaker. Doesn’t travel much these dues despite been a former Us College golfer so could take advantage of a local event.

Two Stand outs in PGA

Harris English 28/1 paddy power – Defending champion and a quality ball striker. A little bit more from him this week would deliver so hard to leave him out of the calculations.


David Hearn 66/1 betvictor – Not far off getting his maiden tour win. Comes in with 5 cuts made and some decent form. Best finish from 3 visits here last year.
