The outright price on Europe looks about right to me but too skinny for my type of betting.
Top Euro score Garcia & Stenson (8.2 & 10.5 currently) for buttons for me so far. Will wait until the day and make a guestimate on what might be tradeable then. |
|
By:
Ive done Garcia top euro scorer too - have also back the tie, if USA turn up, then it will be really close (since 81, there have only been 3 easy wins in 2004-8) and should be able to lay off for a good profit
From an objective standpoint, its time the USA won the thing - the last comeback was great, but there's a definite perception that they simply care a lot less than we do about the whole thing, another easy win for Europe would probably just make them more disinterested. I think Woods absence can only help them, his record and attitude to the competition is pretty hopeless |

By:
I think similar to Gnarley, I just can't bet Europe at the very short price they are although I think they will win. I'm hoping America have a decent first morning and will bet Europe if they hit evens. Justin Rose to be top Euro scorer and Furyk or Bradley for the septics.
Should be a good scrap and I'm looking forward to the contest. |

I agree with a lot of what the Father says. Especially the last sentence.
I'm going to wait on the weather before getting involved properly, although i've had a nifty on the tie. |
|
By:
Going to be windy - apparently.
Now there's a shock. |

Cheers pal, although i'm thinking of maybe doing usa at 6/1
|
|
By:
Which firm are going 6s?
|
|
By:
Ladbrokes are refunding all losing stakes as a free bet on top European, top American and correct score if America win up to £25. Not much but better than nowt. Worth chucking a pony at it anyway.
|
|
By:
oddschecker saying pa ddy going 6/1 for new accounts pal

By:

The USA win the dress code.
The Europeans look like crown green bowlers. |

Never heard of him, I only really like horse racing and rugby. You only gave him 2 stars so I won't worry too much about Reed.
|
|
By:
