In Response to Re: Golf - The Masters betting: Love betting on the golf even though never played in me life. Backed 3 massive prices for bit of fun ,Bo van pelt,Ryan Palmer and Jonathan Byrd all at 200/1 Then backed Retief Goosen 55/1,Ian Poulter 55/1,Geoff Ogilvy 66/1. Finally my main bet is Phil Mickleson 9/1. I know i've backed 7 players but at least 3 wont make the cut prob and want a bit of interest come sunday hopefully.Backed Trevor Immelman when he won a few years ago at 150/1 so you never know.GL all Posted by jackda
i iknow what u mean
when you look down the field you can make a case for every player
At the open 3 or 4 years ago at Birkdale I started putting bets on a few weeks early and by the time it started I had bet on 17 players - Still didn,t win - my main bet was Poulter.
Still remember ( I went on the sunday) a few holes from the finish and he,d been creeping up, then took the lead and was on a par 5 (15th or 16th i think). He hit it a few yards short of being a gr8 shot and instead of a possible eagle , parred it - No sooner was his name being put on top of the leaderboard it was off again 2 minutes later looking back the way Padraig Harrington finished the last few holes he was always gonna win it tho
Looking at all the bets above ,someones got to win - surely
My final 2 bets are : A baddely £2 69/1 p casey £2 36/1
1 uk =Justin Rose 33-1 mbeen close before and no reason he cant go close again. 1 american = Rickie Fowler 66-1 wont be long before he gets Major, lets hope its this one 1 other = Camilio Vilegas 175 -1, always do him, got to win something one of these days LOL
For what its worth I will put up what I have backed on the exchanges: Justin Rose Eduardo Molinari Alviro Quiros D A Points Stewart Cink Hopefully they will all have a good 1st round or 2 so I can trade out at some point Posted by TheDent
Had one more bet on Mike wier at 609/1 with that in mind
Having seen the tea times yesterday, and alot of the big players are t-ing off at 3/4pm UK time, I'm really disappointed that skys coverage doesn't start until 7pm
All this build up too, I'd have thought they'd want to show as much live stuff as possible.

You can watch Amen corner on the red button from about 3pm i think. That is holes 11 12 and 13 i think.
Ok had one final bet. Paul Casey to be top Englishman and Adam Scott to be top Australian.
The double pays 26/1.
I also may put a bet on for the Par 3 comp tonight. I fancy Mark Wilson @ 66/1. But the problem is, only 1 bookmaker has a market for this and they are only paying top 3 places. So no value in it at the minute. Will keep an eye out to see if others offer this market.
Agree with Dohhh about the coverage starting at 7pm, although I think it may be something to do with the american broadcasters as this always seems to happen at the masters
You can watch amen corner on the red button, but personally I,ll be looking for a live feed somewhere on the net as it will take a while for the starters to reach there - did it last year and had some good banter with the Americans watching
If anyone else can find a live feed is it ok mods for them to post it on here so we can all watch?
My very very last bet £2 on Ian Poulter as someone just said on sky sports he,ll be furious at his long odds and he was looking good in practise apparantly
Ps - Does anyone have any weather updates which might give the early/late starters any advantages? I know they have a lot of thunder storms there ( one took a tree down the other day)
Ok here goes , these won't win now. 1 uk =Justin Rose 33-1 mbeen close before and no reason he cant go close again. 1 american = Rickie Fowler 66-1 wont be long before he gets Major, lets hope its this one 1 other = Camilio Vilegas 175 -1, always do him, got to win something one of these days LOL Posted by vaigret

Dustin Johnson 28/1 - Massive hitter can cash in on the par fives. Great record in the majors.
Nick Watney 18/1 - Was already on the radar based on Augusta record. Now a must bet after his stellar play in 2011.
Jonathan Byrd 175/1 - Two wins in last six months, Augusta resident and was eighth on his debut here.
Angel Cabrera 125/1 - 2009 winner simply loves Augusta so is worth a play at 100/1+.
Tim Clark 150/1 - Just cus I always back him.
Also gone for
Adam Scott top Australian 9/2 and Rory Sabbatini top South African 11/2
bubba watson 1ew @ 40/1
kj choi 1ew @ 66/1
s.garcia 2ew @ 80/1
e.molinari @ 150/1
last bets - k na - £2 48/1 - top 5
Ishikawa £2 49/1 Top 5
Woodland 32 28/1 Top 5 - copying that of you splashies
just got a feeling a J ap might do it after the earthquake thing , plus Ishikawa is giving away all prize money for the year -
v, last bet £2 S Appleby to win at 299/1
£2 ishikawa to win 279/1
£2.50 on Ian poulter to win at 69/1
£2 on Y.e wan g 119/1
I think most of the field on this thread have been covered
