I just can't ignore these odds:

TIGER WOODS TO FINISH TOP 10(-130) for 260 wins 200. :scared
Woods has won last 2 events at St. Andrews so he should be in the running if he doesn't win.
This play will either cover all wagers or could add to misery if Woods flops.

Top South African: Retief Goosen(+400) for 50 wins 200. - His only real competition is Els and Tim Clark. Goosen was -7 in '05 at last St. Andrews event for 5th and is usually around to start the final day at British. Odds play more than anything here. 4-1 on a good player to beat just 2 guys in theory.

TO WIN:
Justin Leonard (270-1) for 5 wins 1350.
Justin Rose (20-1) for 20 wins 400.
Darren Clarke (100-1) for 10 wins 1000.
Luke Donald (40-1) for 20 wins 800.
Tiger Woods (6-1) for 45 wins 270


5 guys to win for a total of 100 bucks.

Not liking any H2H right now without knowing weather conditions.

This is a tough pill to swallow right now.
Goosen playing solid as usual at the Open and is safe of beating all So. Africans except one.

F'in Oosthuizen. Figures this guy would come to play when I got Goosen taking care of all the talent from SA.

Maybe Goosen continues to shoot 69 and Oost has issues with the wind like Rory did.

Just put in a In Game Live play on followiing:

TO WIN:
Steven Tilly 50-1 for 10 wins 500.
:scared

Tilly is sitting at -6 and will play his last 8 holes of round 2 in the morning. I think that is a huge advantage for him as the winds are always calm in the am.
He should finish around -8 or -9 and those 50-1 odds are going to be single digit at the start of round 3.
Just a theory. :shrug:

Before the wind delay the average score was 72.
After the delay the average score was over 77.
Windy afternoons are expected again.

Adding few more plays:

TO WIN:
Rory McIlroy 40-1 for 10 wins 400.
Didn't play well in bad conditions. He might get most of a clean round in tomorrow before heavier winds.

Sean O'Hair 35-1 for 10 wins 350.
Played well in round 1 and more than managed in the wind in round 2. 35-1 sitting at 5 under is a gift.

Adding to the Steven Tilly play of 50 to win 500:

Steven Tilly is now 65-1 so added 10 more so now have following:

Steven Tilly to win 20 wins 1150. - :scared
The guy is sitting at -6 with 8 morning holes to play which should only give him a better score entering 3rd round.
65-1 is silly good odds.

Good luck

Also Darren Clarke is a great play at 55-1 since he still has 16,17,18 to play and could easily go birdie,par,birdie and be at -6 as well. I already got him to win the tourney before it started so laving him alone.

Well I am banking on Woods finishing in the top 10.
If he does then I am still +10 with all these plays so I might as well be taking a shot or two.

I just hope Woods doesn't collapse. He seems pretty safe for a top 10 considering his entire round was in the heaviest of wind and he still fought out of it ok.

Well in his defense, whenever someone offers you 65 to 1 on anything you take it. :mj07:

That would be correct.

I looked at the scores around 3:00am and didn't see Tilly anymore and thought what the hell.
Then found him at Even. :scared

Meltdown.

Good news is if he wasn't going to win then falling out of it helps for my Tiger top 10 play.

Problem is Woods is melting down like Phil at Winged Foot.

Well it looks like it is up to Woods to determine if I am miserable tomorrow or if I finish with a clean slate.
Just need him to move up 6 positions by a total of 2 strokes but I have not seen much out of him to be very confident fo him doing that.

Gonna add one last play:

TO WIN:
Oosthuizen (-115) for 115 win 100


I am sure he will crap his bed now that I am on him, but 4 shot lead and playing better than anyone all 3 days makes me like the -115 odds too much.
If I was confident in Woods top 10 then I would put much more on Oosthuizen.
