Maybank debatables...

Some good prices in this. I backed 2 guys whove been playin good but both hit a rough patch just recently. Im thinkin theyre due some action this week. Im a big fan on Jaidee n I reckon he's a tournament in him real soon. Then Santos who already won but went all sh1t last week. Im hopin these guys are gonna come good this week. Get in d hole!!!!!!!!!!

I'm on Gallacher who I was surprised to see at 45/1. 2nd here last year and a winner in Dubai last month.

We have two pretty short priced players in the Malaysian Open but I am happy to take both on as Donald has never won in this part of the world and Schwartzel hasn't managed to make the top five here in his two attempts. One thing we are bound to see is some players, even local ones, sometimes struggling in the high humidity so I have gone for a couple of young players to follow in the footsteps of Manasero and Noh.
Kiradech Aphibarnrat is still only 23 and the young Thai golfer is a huge talent who has one Asian tour win under his belt - two years ago this week in the SAIL Open. He is in fantastic form at the moment after finishing off 2012 with a pair of 6th placed finishes in Thailand he has kicked off this year with a 3rd in Myanmar and 4th last week in the Avantha Masters. Bookmakers also seem to have missed the fact that sandwiched in between those finishes he won the Open Qualifying event by four clear shots. I did find it odd that he didn't play in his homeland last week (in the Japanese/OneAsia event) but I have a feeling he is concentrating on these European co-sanctioned events to gain his card - hence the reason for playing in India last week. He came very close to winning here in 2010 when 3rd, his missed cut in 2011 came the event after his maiden win and he had to withdraw last year with a wrist injury so his course form definitely stacks up. His form overall in Malaysia is also top quality as he has also been 2nd in the Selangor Masters, twice 5th in the Johor Open and 21st and 20th in the PGA co-sanctioned Asia Pacific Classic - altogether I make him a strong pick 0.4 ew 50/1.
My other youngster is Asian based American Jonathan Moore who seems really at home in Malaysia. In 2011 he played the Asian Development Tour winning the order of merit because he was never outside the top five in five starts winning once in Malaysia and was 4th in the event held on this course. Now I have to admit that tour is very week but it was a good start for the young pro. He was 2nd twice last year firstly in Macau and then impressively in the Johor Open he matched the 61 shot by Garcia in the final round. He didn't play that badly in South Africa and India but I think he will be more in his comfort zone back in Malaysia 0.2 ew 200/1.

ok my mrs is thai and her name is 'kingrat'. the king of all rats .
all other rats pale in comparison.
but this week a 'barnrat' will hopefully be the apple of my eye

Gone for three in this...

Aphibarnrat - Each way@50s

Jeev Milkha - Win only@110 and Top five@16

Karlberg - Win only@450 and Top five@50

JMS win and top 5 for me., moderate stakes 325 each , just an interest as ive not bin punting this week.

so you are backing jeev milkha singh for $325 @ what price? this could be a bet to watch

$10 @ 4's just for kicks, on super super player chowrasia in three ball against modh and cabrera bello

added chinnarat $10 @ 600 as well

not so super super player today chowrasia. stupid jockey.

stupid euro tour site giving bizarre incorrect scores

what was incorrect?

Any chance Sky will show some live golf??

yeah i hate how they show 3/4 of the morning session first. seems stupid.
imo, today's morning tee off guys can have their tv time tmrw, then everything evens out.

I assumed first 2 hrs may be replay then final 2 hours of ADVERTISED LIVE golf would be live

Anyone interested in golf nowadays can see live scores etc instantly so anyone switching on to watch the golf would want a live showing?? Replays can be shown later in day. Rant over

Just realised play suspended so no live to show

@poke.....you might give me a bet on cricket england v New Zealand when you have it sized up. Many thanks.

all i have done so far is lay england for $100 @ 3.3 in the first session.
should have layed more but got chicken.
prob a lay of england wouldnt go astray as i feel nz are going to make a huge total.

Got that poke. Thank you.

my old mate garrido is in the mix. perhaps he will get some air time today.
me and him will always have karrinyup . lol.

charl's two bogeys has me wondering if they are indeed two bogeys.
prob someone on the euro website topping up on schwartzel....

its a f joke that golf aint live,how can we make decisions with this kak coverage

Got my  timing very unlucky there Poke. Laid England @10.5 just before that great catch for four.

what happened? yesterday when i said lay them they were 6.6 in the second session.
then they were 14.5 overnight.

so you didnt do anything yesterday?

Yes. I was so tied up in Floridian golf and I did not want to make another deposit here as I intend making a purchase in the next day or 2. I have decided earlier that my golf position was ok so Imade the withdrawal , hence that bet. I have good profit on Rose, Tiger and a bit on Haas and Sergio.

Did I see you had a bet involving a race where Sean Levey was riding.

You might make a phone call for me in your area and price the purchasing of the Aussie silver dollar coin. I dabble in those coins and usually buy the U.S. silver dollars. Is there a Koala Bear on them? Only if you are not too busy.

Thanks for that link BJG. Poke......things looking a lot better now and 336/4. And England about 15.00.

should have read £25 win and top 5 , generally only have small bets on golf.

What happens if the weather doesn't improve?

Play is seemingly going ok. It will be interesting to see who handles things best. I always think the caddie is most important in poor weather as he has to keep player and equipment as dry as possible. But sometimes we forget that a good caddie will keep the spirits up with their employer no matter what. Most players will listen to a caddie. If they do not, it is a flaw in their game. Take yesterday. Would you imagine there was much karma between Tiger and his experienced caddie over the last 4 holes.

@fade2black....unless 54 holes are completed all bets are void here on Betfair.

Thanks tober

Betfair require 36 holes not 54

Does anyone know what time they go back out  tomorrow ?   


Thanks

1.45

Thanks

Live Malaysian  golf open from 02.30hrs. gmt. Sky Sports. Not sure of the kick off time of 1st player.

Just see your post now sandsave. Thanks. I am kicking myself that I did not take 30.00 when looking at it on Padraig. Anyway, he has a better chance if I do not back him. Just 2 back though. Alexander Noren disappointing 2nd round after showing early promise. If Swartzel and Tiger win the bookies will be even greedier with their prices on the fancied players next week. Hell. They will be tight either ways.

Poke...if you are around ...is there any need for me to lay off any of my cricket bet ie. 178 @10.5. They are now freely 27's. I am not stuck to get out and am inclined to stay with the full bet.

Sorry 92/5 England at lunch. Not fully tuned in with this cricket lingo yet. Give me a game of hurling anyday.

i like to green out in test matches. but each to his own. i believe eng's odds are truly reflective right now of their chances.

Good enough for me poke. Am intending having a late night here at home to see if my fellow countryman can win in Malaysia. Didn't back him but he is one of my weekend team. Have Tiger in the other one so it would get me right back into the fray. Hope your bets are going ok. Good luck from Tipperary anyway. By the way. We have the winner of the Epsom Derby in a barn a few miles down the road from me. Will tell you more during the week. Race is not until June.

test cricket. totally unpredictable in a predictable way....

you have balls of steel tobes?

The hell with it. I just noticed that Padraig is starting to suffer under the Malaysian sun and humidity. You should have brought him to SE asia to acclimatise poke. Suppose the Mrs. might object.

Clear blue skies = thunder and lightning

The humidity was so high and there were clouds around. If there is one flash of lightening the chances are there may be a downpour but it may only last 30 minutes. That is supposed to be summer there and NOT the rainy season as they call it thereabouts. Poor old Padraig could have done with hearing that hooter after 8 holes. He is wrecked. I called it early before that bad run of bogeys. Am away to bed. Dreaming of a place called Apo Island.

abs morons running this event, they could have started at around 23.45 UK time but decided to go with 01.45. What could have been a start time that made sure the weather wasn't a factor has turned into a delay with 4 holes to play. It's not like they didn't know it was going to piss it down at some stage.

khaawp khoon maak khrap. thankyou very much

Well done backers. Another big call by the muppet. A worthy winner however I expect Schwartzel will be disappointed, he was 11 under at one point just before the end of his second round.

About time one of em fell over the line!

Well done TMM,......excellent advice for great value punt...many thanks

Streelman, Aphibarnrat

great tipping

"all other rats pale in comparison"

that probably should go on a T-Shirt
good call Pokeron and muppet.

well done lads !

well done

Good call lads. What was his sp, anyone?

60's here. 50's bookies.

Paid no attention whatsoever to this tourney. Good to see a couple of the good guys in Poke and Muppet land a big win. Well done gents and anyone else who was on the rat.

@poke...just to test your brain cells on the horse I nearly mentioned. I gave you a hint already. 2nd bit of help is the sport of ''kings''. And finally there is an affinity with a Scottish golf course. Dont answer . Just tell me if you have the name yet and have a few dollars e.w long odds. A bet to nothing barring interim injury or something unforeseen. Very strong stayer they think. That is why I suggest to back for Derby rather than 2,000 guineas. Am aware you do not normally back a horse. Let me know what way Lux are betting.

trainer worried it wont make the guineas......

june 1 is my birthday. pardon my ignorance but isnt it the fav? u said long odds....

wd guys,nice to see winners

Yea. Sorry poke. Some of us refer to ante post prices as long odds prices no matter the price. I suppose it came from a long time before the event.
