In Response to Re: Get in the Hole! 2013 Season! (Humana Challenge + Abu Dhabi HSBC) Year Profit: -9.5pts : It's the Abu Dhabi tournament Posted by FlashFlush
I wish the PGA tour site would sort out their shot by shot feature! So tilting just keep seeing "Shot 1 to unknown. in the hole" then shot 2 to unknown. in the hole!!! SORT IT OUT!!

Justin Rose is looking good, but I had a look at the in-play odds and Donaldson was 9/1 and only 2 shots behind with around 10 holes still to play!! I have a spare £5 freebet so I've stuck it on him, 9/1 is far too big for some1 of his ability and a proven winner.
I see Scott Stallings is 4/7 to win the PGA Humana Challenge. He is 5 shots clear at the start of the last round. Anyone know much about him? Not sure whether to put a bit on him or is he likely to bottle it ?

He is a very good player. I bagged quite a few £ with him last season so he is a proven winner even if it is just once.
As this is held over 3 different courses you need to look at their course form on the Palmer course which is where the final round will be held. He played there on day 1 and even though it's the toughest of the 3 courses he still shot -6 which is very impressive. IMO 4/7 is great odds and I may have a little dabble in that 1 as I feel Snedeker is too far back now.

Cheers Flash. I did see that it was played over 3 courses but wasn't sure what sort of round he had over the Palmer course. What worries me is that if he gets off to a stinker and the others pick up shots early then that 5 shot lead can go in the space of 3/4 holes. I'm putting doubts in my own head now! Got to be worth a conservative dabble though :-)
Although I like to put a few bets on, I'm not a big money gambler, I rarely put more than about £10 on any 1 bet, so I decided notto back him or to get any significant return you need to be betting about £100. I think I remember the event he won last year he was under a lot of pressure from Bud Cauley and someone else I can't remember who. A lot of young players would of bottled it but it seemed to spur him on and he finished very well!
WD Charles.... Been away all w/e in Brussels so missed golf from 10am Fri onwards... Annoying that Kaymer had just gone birdie birdie par birdie on the Fri to be 4 under as i left for the Airport... Only to then go bogey bogey bogey... grrrrr.... So i end up getting 1/3 of my stake @ 1/4 of some 12/1 and some 10/1 as he snared joint 6th with 2 others. (luckily P Power were paying top 6 this week). Ended up a loss taking into account the win part of the stake.
Well if the PGA tour has told us anything so far this season, it's look out for the rookies! I had a look at the end of the Web.com tour last season and I saw Ben Kohles had won 2 of the last 4 events. I then looked at last weeks results in the Humana challenge and he had shot -10, which isn't great but he was -14 after 54 holes only to shoot a +4 on Sunday and very much stayed under the radar. This came after a solid although not spectacular -7 in the Sony open. Not sure if this week will be his week as there are a lot of top names in the field this week, but depending on his performances I think I may stay with him for a while, because with these rookies, as soon as they get that bink then they will not get to those odds again.
PGA Tour
Ben Kohles - 300/1 £2 e/w
Sang-Moon Bae - 100/1 £2 e/w
European Tour
Thorbjorn Oleson - 25/1 - £3 win only
Scott Jamieson - 66/1 £2 e/w
Scott Jamieson seems crazy odds this week. OK he has probably been over achieving in recent weeks, but to be 66/1 when he has been right up there in all the events recently apart from last week could be giving money away.
Also did 50p e/w doubles which could be as much as 10k return with those crazy odds lol
Hope you didn't go with the bet in the end Wilco! Sorry if I talked you into it. Very surprised he didn't win that, **** hazards! Posted by FlashFlush
Luckily I didnt flash. It worried me the course was giving out too many low scores and thought a couple of the chasers might shoot a crazy score. phew :-)
