4th Round

Badds -1/2 over MacKenzie +104 (WSEX)

I would have played this same play. I think you are fading will more than playin on badds. Also would have looked at Ogilvy, and I would have looked at fading moore. But it seems like all the leaders are playin well today except pampling ( but thats no surprise)

Wow....... does anyone know is 5dims still has dead heat rules? They dont post it anywhere and it isnt in their golf rules section.

I had one of the top 5 guys in the memorial and they paid it out in full. im not saying anything, especially because the rule is not posted.

I called them and asked the question about the dead heat rule and they said that they only payout for one player per position, and the player that gets paid is the first 5th place player listed, LOL!

To be honest, I wouldnt be surprised is they do not do dead heat rules because they rape you on the terrible Top5 odds they give you. I think they divide the win odds by SEVEN to get the Top 5 odds!!!

Not sure homie. I never bet top 5's or each ways. I like 5 dimes for golf since they have so many matchups. But all my $$ is at the greek. I wish i would have waited to cash out, becuz i would have put all 30 units on that ochoa over anika.. instead of the 6.9 i put on it.

Yup, you were all over it this week man! We were on the same page for the most part......I had KJ at 80-1 at the greek and I had Cink at 50-1 on 5Dimes because thegreek had him at 30-1.....and I had ohair on my short list that didnt make it. I was going to bet on Ryan Moore but couldnt find odds on him at either site because I believe he got in as an alternate.

I just hate the fact that the greek's good win odds get eaten up as soon as they come out, and they are pretty chewed up by the time i get to look at them and handicap an event, and thier list of players doesnt go very deep......

THe greeks odds are bs. The win odds just plain suck. The matchup odds are shaded 20 to 30 cents on both sides ( compared to other books). Then on the weekends they throw in the tie option which really screws you. The book is shady. I just hope they have that same ochoa matchup next week for the major. No way annika contends.

Nice call on choi btw

Ive been pretty busy today. I dont have a tv so i cant watch any of the golf until 2 weeks. But it looked like Kim found his game on the weekend, his stats were great for the week ( besides putting). Look for him to maybe get his first win next week...:shrug:


I think itll be interesting to see who qualifies for the open. There are some big names trying. I.e. Sean O hair.


On a side note ( i hope this is alright) I added a links section to my blog. Stan i put up tour tips and a link here, if anyone has any other sites they use to cap that i forgot to mention, or a site they would llike me to link too please let me know. Thanks

Would have been slightly more relevent/useful/credible if the call was made prior to the event being decided. Although I do admit that it makes the process of picking winners a touch more elusive.

I mean that posting winners post the event is about as usefuls as tits on a bull.

I wasnt referring to you, simply the fact that you highlighted this "good call".

I understand what your saying. Would have been nice to have seen his winners posted PRE TOURNEY. Does no good for us after the final result. But if he did have choi as a winner then good for him, have no reason not to believe him.. but is pretty useless to say it now.

Good Luck in Memphis fellas

Pharlap......dont be an ass, man.

I was in no way posting bragishly. I was simply stating that abc had the week pretty well nailed, and that I handicapped it almost the same way.

I do not post my picks for a couple of reasons.......I am embarrased to say that I am very superstitious and never seem to win when I used to post my picks. And I honestly do not have the time to give detailed writeups on my picks. And I feel that if I am going to get on here and post picks, it is only fair to those that may read my picks that I have some analysis that goes with it. I find it very pointless for guys to come on here and just put a couple of names on a post and say "there it is". It doesnt help me,and I wouldnt want to do the same to others. And finally, I keep my own records, so to just post my picks here so Stan can keep my records is also pointless.

Dont rain on my parade,bud. I've had a rough golf season up until the last 3 tourneys.....and you should be glad I havent posted my picks because they were pretty worthless......but I'm starting to get hot.
