[DOGS THAT BARK]

3rd round
Cook +120 over Flesch

Wanted to have one wager in 3rd round for gp's and took this one.Would like this wager much better if it was 4th round as Flesch has really struggled in 4th rounds this year.With all the delays maybe he'll think it's Sunday

 

[DOGS THAT BARK]

adding 3rd round @ Camelot
Allenby +105 over Faxon.

Wonder if they change pin placements between 2nd and 3rd rounds in a situation like this. Anyone know?

 

[ormond80]

YES THEY DO CHANGE THE PIN PLACEMENTS.
NOW MY QUESTION TO YOU IS ON MONDAY OF THE PLAYOFF IN THE U.S.OPEN WERE THOSE NEW PINS OR SUNDAYS?

 

[DOGS THAT BARK]

Big O Embarrassed to say I did not pay attention.

At the cut: 2nd rd matches 0-2 72 holes 2-1
Did reverse of 1st rounders
Watts/Weibe loss by 5
Schwarzrock/Gogal loss by 2

72 holes
Watts/Mattice win by 4
Zinger/Els canceled
Schwarzrock/Forsman win by 7
Tidland/Pride loss by 6 (bad choice)
remaining 72 hole
Flesch/Smith down 2

Update:

What a difference a day makes! 72-holes plays stood 4-1-1 after 18 holes; at the cut they stand 1-5-0 and two are lost at the cut The losses were Blake to Bowden by one shot and Lowery to Smith by three shots having missed the cut by just one shot. The rest: Berganio/Johnson 3 down; Flesch/Smith 2 down; Watts/Gogel 1 down; Isenhour/Nicklaus 6 up. This is one frustrating sport! At least Garcia leads the event, though the other two are nowhere.

 

[DOGS THAT BARK]

I think we might be looking at 54 hole event like 1998.With 50% chance the next 16 hours and rain in forcast thru Tuesday it doesn't look good.

 

[DOGS THAT BARK]

Selling another share of Hoch for $13. Have two remaining and +$22.

3rd round update: 1-1-0 and -2.60 units

Azinger shot 68 to beat Cink by a shot, but the shocker was Hayes' 67 to beat Singh by three. He has awful weekend scoring stats, but turned out to be a costly player to oppose. All four remaining 72-hole plays are very tight: Berganio/Johnson all square; Flesch/Smith 3 down; Watts/Gogel all square; Isenhour/Nicklaus 1 up. With Garcia leading by two and Azinger up to 12th, might yet get something out of a very forgettable event!

 

[DOGS THAT BARK]

3rd rd results split
Cook/Flesch win by 1
Allenby/Faxon loss by 8
remaining 72 hole
Flesch trails Smith by 3

Will be leaving early am and will have no 4th round plays.

 

[Stanley]

4th round plays:

Chris Perry to beat Steve Elkington -110 @ Camelot
Jerry Smith to beat Jeff Julian -125 @ Camelot

 

[Stanley]

Final update: 1-0-1 and +1.00 units for the day; 4-12-2 and -13.44 units for the week

At last, the end to a very long week! Perry tied with Elkington and Smith beat Julian by five shots for a token profitable round. The 72-hole plays collapsed even further and at the end, Isenhour had to birdie the last to secure a tie with Nicklaus. Berganio lost by six to Johnson, Flesch lost by eight to Smith and Watts lost by five to Gogel. That's 54 units lost on matchups in the past two weeks on the PGA Tour. Definitely cause for concern!

Update on outright plays: 1-2 and +10.50 units

Not for the first time this season, the outright plays rescued the week. Garcia led for four days out of five and was a comfortable 20/1 winner in the end. Azinger failed to make any progress and finished in 16th place, while Duval was further back in 26th.

PGA Tour ytd:
Matchups/props: 278-241; +13.32 units
Outright plays: 12-61; +6.58 units

All Tours ytd:
Matchups/props: 424-380; +3.43 units
Outright plays: 46-239; +109.46 units

Flesch/C Smith loss by 8

Matches for week 5-5 ytd 182-157

3balls & Parlays none ytd - 1.05 units

Did play Hoch on inters in lieu of outrights and made a few bucks.Not quite the return a place wager would have given but close and had shot at big score to the end.Sergio hung on gamely and was nice job by Stan in selecting him.Cheers

Maybe the gang can get clear run next week.

 

[Stanley]

And maybe it won't rain next week either

 

[ormond80]

SNOW MIXED WITH SLEET FOLLOWED BT A HAIL STORM IS MY GUESS FOR THIS WEEK.

 

[DOGS THAT BARK]

LOL Thats what I ment by clear run. Would be nice to have week when you didn't have to toss most data accumulated on 1st day of event.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Looks like good weather projection (for now).
Been a while since they played without LC&P,may be several getting penalties for improving their lie by habit 1st couple of days

Do most books do this for place bets in golf? I had Cink to place in the top 3 yesterday at 9 to 1 when round 4 started. He finished in a 3 way tie for 3rd and I won at 3 to 1 instead. Is that normal, cuz 3rd place is still 3rd place? I did not notice the rule when I placed it. Just curious. I am not angry cuz a win is a win, and that is the only thing I played on this week's tourney.

 

[DOGS THAT BARK]

Sub The only book I am aware of that does not divy ties is Oly for show odds (top 4).
