Reed is huge. And his price is pretty generous, too.

Good luck Quincy. I hope everything goes well for you.
Phew! The big layers have come out to play in the last few hours. |

Very early days, but the distances they are hitting it this scoring could get silly.

Don't know what to do with Rose and Sergio. Seem a bit short to me. particularly Rose. Yet another early masterstroke. ![]() ![]() |

What with the TV companies......PGA feature group starts 8 30 pm and golf channel/NBC starts 11 pm GMT.....or is this info wrong?
@Quincy....when using greening up function on my software and can green up for a profit on each golfers but some are 'greened' up (should be 'red up') for a small loss. The amount greened up is higher than the 'red up' so still a profit on the book. If i were to back @ 40 £100...sell @42 £100, i will get my stake back in full but the golfer will have -£200 instead of losing £5 across the board....God forbid if that golfer went on to win. |

Rose gone mental.....doing a Palmer?
|

By:
Sit and suffer job for a while, I think. Have got 5 of the top eight though. Taken my stake out of Bowditch and done a bit of trading with Rose.

Thanks rhino, that makes a lot of sense. I prefer to trade on bigger priced golfers with low stakes, than putting loads on people like Rory. So if things don't go my way I haven't lost much.
Saying that, it all adds up and long term it could be costly. I have never layed anything at a price bigger than I've backed. Maybe I need to start doing this??? I need to do some thinking... ![]() |

By:
Hope its not another runaway win for Rory 2.52 ish now with 3 .5 rounds to go has to be a lay at that price
|
|
By:
Problem is laying Rory is now on the same lines as laying AP and Stephen Hendry in his pomp
|
|
By:
a 276 yard par 3??
I'd still be short hitting my sunday best driver |
|
By:
Iv now laid rory and i very rarely lay .at that price over 4days im happy to lay for the price of getting a free week on all my other players if he dont win .long way to go

By:
Fair play, with the early scoring I thought this course might be a but of a joke but it's held up well, level is a decent score. If a bit of rain softens the greens could still see some low ones though as they get used to the altitude calculations.

Some proper golf holes alright. Should be an entertaining 4 weeks so long as boy wonder don't run away with it.

4 weeks ??

By:
Got a flu kicking in and I'm on 4 weeks leave at COB today, so my head is cactus. You know what I mean... |
|
By:
I think the next three days are going to be a struggle. Laid to back Rory three times to ease the pain a bit. The next move might be a back to lay.
|

By:
I've never heard anyone say that their head is cactus before!
![]() I've got lucky with my trading cos a few hours ago it was looking quite cactusy! I've bet on 18 golfers and the field is -£4.58! ![]() |

how did jimmy walker do in his 3 ball ?
|
|
By:
sorry had to just say i agree with whats said earlier ,a 273 yard par 3 ,it getting unreal now ,and rory hit a bloody 4 iron ,one of the clubs i play at start with a 212 yard par 3 and its bloody hard enough ,been the first hole as well ,il par it one day LOL
|
|
By:
What a character that Jerry Kelly is
|
|
By:
works out at 252 ish that par 3. - as if thats any easier lol - easy way to know the true yardage on this course is just use the distances for each hole as metres, and imagine they are yards, accurate enough for our needs.

By:
Ski... Well I have to be careful cos I get influenced quite easily and before long it could be part of my limited vocabulary!
![]() Anyway, I'm quite pleased with the way my trading has gone so far. BUT... There's still plenty of time for things to go pear-shaped! ![]() Speith +£69.22 Bubba +£90 Henley +£320 Howell III +£100 Hadley +£160 Every +£343.30 Villegas +£60 Kelly +£242 Stroud +£80 Compton +£300 McGirt +£80 Jacobson +£160 Holmes +£80 Leishman +£200 Streelman +£100 Reed (waste of space!) +£300 MacKenzie +£560 Bohn +£120 The field -58p Phew! My hands are in a bad way and it was painful typing all that out. There must be an easier way??? It's amazing how things can suddenly turn around. As usual I got totally carried away backing any old Tom, Dick & Harry and when it started my trading position was not good! Then as the night progressed it got better and better. Good luck everybody... ![]() |

Strange things happening with Cash-Out. Last night, I was losing £119, first thing this morning it was £91, now it's £89. As far as I know it's still dark in Colorado. I'll be cashing out, win or lose, sometime Sunday afternoon.
Last thing, anyone know how I connect my Ipad to Sky Go. |
|
By:
sheppy123, just have £2.00 on Speith at 17, then lay £3 Speith at 17.5. Field £0.42, all the other win you £1.00 less, sorted, stress-free and then just lay any of your winners as they shorten up.

By:
Thanks Quincy. You've got me thinking here... There's been a few developments since my last post so at the moment I'm gonna leave things as they are.
I've still got a lot to learn. I'm way behind compared to a lot of guys on here. |
|
By:
Just one more thing...
The reason for the -58p is cos I backed Spieth @ 60 (£7.58) and layed @ 55 (£7). I may try and get the 58p back somewhere along the line??? Sorry for taking over the thread! ![]() |

Don't worry about it, sheppy. I've just spent an hour talking to Sky. Completely frustrated.
