Stanley, I'd like to say thanks for the nice Hal Sutton pick...I got him 23/1 at Grand Central. I didn't get to watch the tournament today, but got home in time for them to announce he had won

Also my thanks go out to all you guys that post up your analysis each week. It's great stuff to read!!

 

[Ian]

Congrats to Stan and DTB - luckily backed Suton at +450 today to recoup some losses on the week - nice winning run has come to an end
Hope things change for next week - which will be my last week for a while (might squeeze in one extra if I can avoid the wedding arrangements!)

Update after the conclusion of this week's events.

All Tours ytd:
Matchups/props: 255-222; +34.40 units
Outright plays: 31-135; +67.01 units


Reach one of this season's targets this week: +100 units

With each unit set at 1% of initial bankroll, very satisfying to double bankroll by April and despite a very difficult January

Slim, thanks but kudos to DTB as well who was the first to cite Sutton as an outright play. BTW, great save DTB

 

[DOGS THAT BARK]

Quite impressive 100+ units before May,Stan.
Could it be a +300 unit year.At the rate you have steadily increased units won past 3 years it is definately not out of question.

Ian my friend. Can't do without the Bushmaster for even one week.As D-Day approaches you need to set priorities NOW!

 

[AzRusty]

Thanks for the picks guys.

I won right along with you including the winner...Sutton.

Quite enjoyable!

Stan, DTB

Many congrats on a great week. Thanks for all the insights that the both of you and everyone else on this site provide. I find it very helpful before I pull the trigger.
Ian...Got a feeling your going to make a big comeback this week. They can't keep good cappers down for long.

Cheers Simon - the odd bad week never did anyone any harm tends to sober you up a little

 

[Stanley]

I'm sure your wedding day will sober you up enough Ian
