HSBC Championship

[DerrickTulips]

This is a really good event, I decided. Lot's of famous golfers playing for large amounts of Yen. I fancy Paul Casey's chances of leaving with the hardware at 18/1.

On a completely side note, mad props to Tindall for his hot streak. Respect son.

TINDALL TROUNCES BOOKIES

Ryan Palmer's 150/1 win in the Ginn sur Mer Classic completed a remarkable weekend of tipping by Dave Tindall.

Followers of Tindall were already counting the profits on Thursday night after he tipped Soren Kjeldsen at 45/1 to be the first round leader of the Volvo Masters in Valderrama.

The Dane, who led by three after day one, was also recommended for a top five place at 10/1, taking profits for the tournament to +68.25pts.

But it was on Sunday night when profits really went through the roof as 150/1 tip Ryan Palmer sank a 10 foot putt at the final hole to score a dramatic victory in the Ginn sur Mer Classic.

Tindall had said of Palmer: "The American needs to cash a decent cheque here to win his card.

"But the good news for Palmer, who is languishing in 143rd place coming into the event, is that this course should be right up his street.

"He hits it long but not too straight, is ranked the second best putter on Tour and also tops the Birdie Average and Par Breakers stats.

"Palmer's one win on Tour came in Florida in October (the 2004 Walt Disney) while, historically, this is the time of year when he posts his best finishes.

"Recent form is thin on the ground but he closed 66-69-66 in Arizona last week after looking rusty over his first 18 holes (not a surprise given that he'd played in just two of the previous seven tournaments and failed to make the cut in either).

"If his putter stays hot, Palmer could prove a very tasty 150/1 shot."

With 33/1 tip Ken Duke finishing tied second, profits for the Ginn sur Mer Classic weighed in at a massive +190.60pts.

That meant the combined profits across the two Tour events came in at a monstrous +258.85pts.

Before this weekend, Tindall had also tipped the winners of the three previous European Tour events:

# Castello Masters: 4pts win Sergio Garcia - Won 13/2

# Portugal Masters: 1pt e.w. Alvaro Quiros - Won 80/1

# Madrid Masters: 2pts Charl Schwartzel - Won 22/1

Profits for those three tournaments came in at +147.5pts

Must have read the same article I did. I don't like giving out many tips.. but if you go to google.com then news, you can type in diff searches (maybe the tourney name, a certain player, etc) then sort the search by past week or date.. and you can find a lot of good articles.

Just noticed Tindall likes Casey as well.. :0corn

Paul Casey -110 over Adam Scott

wrong guy is favored here. Scott has never played this event before. Casey has 3 times and finished top 10 all 3. Scott made an appearance at the Kiwi Open and got a top 4, unfortunately there was only 4 people in the field.

S na 3 1 u2 Hunter Mahan $1,500,000 57.69% 71 65 136 -8
S na 2 1 u1 Anthony Kim $500,000 19.23% 70 66 136 -8
S na 1 3 d2 Brandt Snedeker $350,000 13.46% 66 71 137 -7
S na 4 4 nc Adam Scott $250,000 9.62% 73 75 148 +4

I decided to throw some money on this play. GL if you tail or fade.

David John is covering European Tour this week.

Not been betting much of late but coat-tailed Tindall on Kjeldson and Quiros.

Think most of the main players in this are solid but not great prices, probably like Karlsson or Fisher best but no value.

Looking a bit further down the market, will let a winning bet ride on Kjeldsen and add Darren Clarke and Peter Hanson at 45, 50 and 50 respectively.

Graeme McDowell -135 over Trevor I got lucky and won a green Jacket Immelman


Should be fairly obvious why I like this one..

 

[AK2009Masters]

Thats Aguilar of course...typo. Apologies.

 

[DerrickTulips]

already an amazing leaderboard.. its on the golf channel right now, but im too sleepy to stay up and watch it. Good luck gents.

 

[DerrickTulips]

Nice collapse by Casey. Stenson was almost one of my fades, after his pathetic effort last tourney, glad I saw his course form and layed off. Hopefully Paul can clean up his mistakes and get back in this.:00x1

 

[DerrickTulips]

Kim limped around the course after badly spraining his right ankle and bruising his jaw while horseback riding in the last few weeks. He said the horse raised up and as it came down, his mouth slammed shut as his mount hit the ground.

"I don't know what's going on with it," Kim said of his jaw. "I just can't open my mouth very wide."

"My diet is pretty much limited to noodles," he added.

Luckily he said that last comment and not someone else. :0corn

4 hour rain delay.

best leaderboard of the year.. and that goes for any major.

By the way Adam Scott #16 in the world now.. Cmon son, lay off the supermodels and get focused.

Aguile -118 over Havret

Good start.. what made you fade Havret?

I need to learn how to cap these Euro events.

 

[DerrickTulips]

lmao phar at that blood fest.. a win is a win :toast:

Anyway, lets see if the gambling gods can get me a push or win in that casey matchup :0corn

 

[phar.lap]

Aguilar did everything in his power to lose, but he wasnt bad enough.

 

[DerrickTulips]

Yea i am a little worried now that the pga is done. Im about a 75% capper on the pga events and around 45% in euro events. 1 - 1 this week.. but in flat betting terms that's losing money.

:shrug: Need to have 2 or 3 big weeks before Christmas to get my parents a new tv. :yup
