Thanks Derrick for the support and glad your father was able to beat it despite the advanced stage. What type was his? Mine is colon cancer. Again, odds against you in stage four but I'm battling and currently doing well.
Stanley, you are right. It can be frustrating backing some of these golfers but that's what makes it fun. Of course I was going to cut back on the number of plays and ended up playing more than ever.
The frustrating part for me is consistently, the last match I cutoff always seems to win so where do you draw the line?
My last match I wanted but cut :
Tom Pernice Jr. over Billy Mayfair @ - 110.
Both are playing poorly but think Pernice was up by two strokes. I know it's early but this is one I'll be following to see if the streak of frustration continues. Can't root against it because I saw Another Steve has it and I don't root for others to lose their bets. Both may get cut so I should know by tomorrow. We'll see.
I try to pick and chose my spots. This week i saw 10 plays that i liked, but i was out of town since saturday so i hadnt seen or read any articles, so i chose quality over quantity.
He also had colon cancer, they caught it when he had a colonoscopy.
One thing that i think will make people a better capper is to be proactive instead of reactive. Yes, Adam Scott has missed 5 cuts in a row, but try to catch it before everyone is on the bandwagon, maybe notice poor ball striking stats for a week, or a high round, don't wait for a couple mc's then try to fade him because the bookies will have caught up, and the value is shot.
Same goes for backing a player, maybe he shoots a great weekend score..
