The Tuesday Show, with Boycey

Good afternoon.
 
OK, so it's barbecue weather, & everyone is out in the beer gardens, but the TV Show continues, & tonight we have a Mix N Match Poker & Open Golf Preview Show.

Poker, the normal, & for the Golf Betting preview (8pm - 10pm) we have Sean Boyce on the tee, with his caddie, Golf Columnist Sam Harrop, & his mind coach, Steve Bamford. I shall mainly be raking the bunkers.

The Open Golf this year is hosted at Muirfield, & should be a cracker.

We may find a few FREE PRIZES if you can Post (or e-Mail/Tweet) any great memories of Open Golf from Muirfield, or your predictions of the likely winner, & his score. I think the scores will be low low low, maybe 16 under or better. Agree, disagree?

Back at the poker tables, meanwehile, the WSOP November Nine is now sorted. Odd factoid - (with thanks to Dr Marbles for this) - From the final 27 at the start of the day, three of the 4 shortstacks made the final nine, but only one of the top 6 biggest stacks. How weird is that?

That apart, send in your questions, share your victories with us, chirp away if you have won something recently, no matter how small. Tonight is Tuesday FUN night. By order.
 
7pm. Don't be late.

    Well for me I'm on Tiger Woods this week, it is only a matter of time before he starts winning majors again.

    He has won around 25% of tournaments he has played throughout his career, and roughly 1 in 5 majors (14majors in 67 starts I believe)

    If his elbow holds out, I'm delighted to be taking the 10/1 on offer.

    My only other bet of the week is Thomas Bjorn Top 20 finish @ 5/2. Finished 8th here in the '02 Open and has 4 top 10's in his last 5 starts this year and is looking back to his best. I think winning this week will be a stretch too far for him, but a top 20 finish is on the cards.

    I think you may be right about the scoring being better than usual in the Open, but according to the players on twitter, the rough may say otherwise!!

    I bet Tikay wishes the Open was at Gleneagles!
    That would be a great excuse to devote half the show to Railways, as it used to be a Caledonian Railway course.

    We've just had the Derby won by Ruler of the World
    The British Open is reknowned as one of, if not, the best Tournament in the world!

    Ryan Moore was the jockey on board in the Derby, what are the chances of his namesake Ryan Moore taking down the Open at 150/1

    My Open memory was backing Van der Velde before round 1, at riddiculous odds in 1999. 
    I was playing Cricket at IBM Hursley as the final round took place, I got run out, just in time to watch him play the 18th hole.
    I lost my bet and we lost the match! brought a whole new meaning to French Cricket for me lol

    Have a great Show!!

    If i had a house i,d stick it on that right now to be a lot less


    I,ve put my tips up on the Golf Thread in Punters Corner but will post again since your discussing it - Should be a great 4 days

    Phil Mickleson        22/1 .    Backed him on the Scottish Open so have to stick with him. Also a joy to wacth

    Henrik Stenson -    49/1      Apart from last few holes on Sunday he was on fire and must be confident 

    Francesco Molinari    129/1   Showed some form at the weekend. A straight hitter at a great price

    Ian Poulter            59/1       Almost did it at Birkdale. If he,s going to win a major i think it will be this one

    Brandon Grace       79/1        Showed all round form at the weekend esp his short putting . Conditions and                                                   course will suit him

    Rory                    28/1        At least he,ll get plenty of air time. Think its a good value price


    Not got any memories from Muirfield as i havne,t been but top 3 Open moments would be


    Almost watching Tom Watson win at Turnberry before Cink stole it (Never seen so many ppl supporting an American that day)

    Helping Thomas Jaidee find his ball as he capitulated on the 17th on the Sunday at Birkdale

    Putting £2 on Darren Clarke to win at 150/1 then another £2 after the price stayed the same just as he birdied a hole - then went on to win


    Will be playing the main and mini so wish me luck and have a good show

    Paul

    If he could find his form, Woods would walk it. If......

    I like the Bjorn bet though, I've backed him Top 20, Top 10, & outright. I've also had a few bob on Fowler, Haas, Koooooooooch, & Branden Grace, and a proper bet (Top 20, Top 10, Top Englishman, Winner) on Chris Wood.
     
    The rough? What rough? Poulter Tweeted this photo earlier today......

    The trouble with this is that no winner of the scottish open has ever won the open the next week.  At the odds quoted on SKY BET I think that Justin Rose has a great shout at 18/1.  He has shown that he can win under pressure and can handle an open course.  He is also in a bit of form which helps

    Love the fact these show's are keeping it fresh and sticking with maintaining the topical themes!

    Not first memories but best memories for me has to be the 1991 Open at Royal Birkdale.

    I'd had the odd bet on the golf, but that year I decided to have a few weekly bets (back when I used to get paid weekly) on Ian Baker-Finch, each bet was 50/1 to win.

    I opened my first savings account with the winnings from Ian Baker-Finch and the funds went some way to forming the deposit for my first house.

    At the time I said I would call my house 'Baker-Finch' but settled for a signed photo of the great man holding the trophy, displayed in my home.
     

    As for this years Open, I've been investing in Martin Kaymer at 50/1, as I think he has the perfect game and mindset for The Open and appeared (I think he is) to be coming into form.

    So my prediction would be a Kaymer win on -13, unlucky for everyone else, lucky for Kaymer :)

    I've been quietly confident that kaymer at 50/1 was superb value, though he's now as big as 66/1 and doesn't seem to be getting much of a mention from anyone.

    Would anyone like to say why Martin Kaymer should be virtually friendless this week?

    Other 'value bets' for me are Matt Kuchar 50/1 and with a benign forecast and little to no need for the driver, I feel Rory Mcllroy is suddenly looking good ew value at 28/1.

    In the three figure section, I like Chris Wood 150/1, Brett Rumford 300/1, Danny Willett 250/1, Gareth Maybin 500/1 and playing in his first major Graham Delaet 200/1.

    Brett Rumford 20/1 top Aussie also gets my interest.

    Hi Tony and Boycey

    A big thankyou to Tony for all his videos while he was in Vegas.  It was great reliving the WSOP with him again.  I still don't know how I got to the 5th day in 2010.

    Well played Tony see you at Nottingham at DTD.

    Love

    Sue

    We nominated FCHD for top of the posts and he took down £15 his biggest win on Sky poker.
    He was so humble and delighted he deserves to be at the next SPT.
    His thread was the best thing I looked forward to for the duration of the SPT
    Top Man he deserves a Top prize

    FCHD did some cracking work with that thread.  Totally agree with Rob above, a buy in at an SPT of his choice IMO.

    Twice as much as I know about poker then!

    Big thank you for FCHD for keeping us all updated (does this make it a £2 bh?).  Did Tikay bring back any of those small cream cakes he was showing off?  Well I say they they looked as big as a bag of concrete.

    Run well all and see you at the 6max
