    Advil Western Open

    I'm not following u Stanley. I was able to sell/buy interactives before and after my post, their problems were fixed by 8:30EST, it appears. There is no risk in selling short if you don't care about buying back later ( letting it ride exactly like u must do for a bet like those at OLY and...

    Advil Western Open

    Once again, interactives prove the better value. By shorting DL3 at 58, you effectively get the field at +138, vs the +127 @ 5dimes. Keep it in mind! GL

    My subjective golf out reviews - since DOGS asked

    Doonhamer, Simon Bold is another 3-way "ties lose" out that also has 22cent lines. I am currently boycotting all 3-way outs as my PUSH/TIE ratio has been very high all year. Even at 5%, it more than doubles the VIG on 22 cent lines and ranks up there with VC and the like ( 40 cent lines ) as...

    My subjective golf out reviews - since DOGS asked

    sandwedge, ITOPS does still sometimes include the golf matchups on their "specialty" category for parlays - like you got last week. What I don't like is they sometimes forget, or only start allowing them Thurs morning. I DETEST inconsistency like that in a book. The last 3-4 times they had...

    My subjective golf out reviews - since DOGS asked

    There are three major things I look for in a golf out, others priorities will obviously be very different. 1. Head-to-Head matchups. The more variety, diversity, quantity, and consistency the better ( 72, 18, 36 holes, each round, etc. ). 2. Vigorish. The less vig the better shot we bettors...

    Futures vs matchups, which do you play most?

    AV2, I agree that in most sports betting contexts value is the primary key. The problem with futures is that 20 value plays don't mean squat if none are winners. I think the opposite tact is needed for outrights as a guy that should be 50-1 that is at 125-1 still has little chance at victory...

    Advil Western Open

    Like several of DOGS matchups, particularly Paulson, Parry and Appleby. I'm on the opposite side of McCarron though. Tripp coming off two 7ths seems a little more likely to show against Scott's 3 week layoff. Both have poor records at Cog Hill, but Scott's are more recent bad memories and...

    Futures vs matchups, which do you play most?

    10 hours a tourney on futures Clive, here I thought I spent a lot of time capping golf, wow! I typically handicap the 50-75 players most likely to be involved in matchups and then compare them when matchups come out. I then use that same "golfing form" for dailies, combined with the players...

    Futures vs matchups, which do you play most?

    With the depth and talent on the PGA tour, I have always advocated matchups ( picking one player to beat another seems challenging enough without trying to pick them to beat 155 ). Evidently there are quite a few golf bettors/punters out there that ONLY bet futures. Where do you guys stand on...

    phil mickelson (mr. choke)

    My esteem for Phil just jumped 1000%. Knowing a fine upstanding ignoramous, who has been banned from at least two forums for his antics and continuing to badmouth and criticize without contributing anything, dislikes him raises his standing immensly. My $ is on DiMarco, but I'll be pulling for...

    What is the biggest Parlay you ever hit?

    TeddyKGB, like the handle BTW, I do sometimes "intentionally" make the "back end" bet with layoff possibilities in mind. In general, this is stupid - as laying it off, or hedging, gives the book more juice. You are far better off cutting the parlay one play short and betting the last game...

    What is the biggest Parlay you ever hit?

    KotysDad, This is the major reason I play at AcesGold for NFL sides. On Fridays they have NO JUICE WAGERING on NFL sides. This includes +100 straights and "no juice parlays" like the one I hit. An 8 teamer would indeed have paid 255-1, aka true odds, as all parlays played that day on NFL...

    What is the biggest Parlay you ever hit?

    football: 7 teamer last year at AcesGold 127-1 ( was 8 teamer reduced by 1 push ) $20 paid $2540 golf: 2 players ( to lead Ryder Cup points ) 503-1 odds $5 paid $2515 at SIA I never play more than 3 teams when I bet more than a token amount. Have hit 9/10 several times in hoops but rarely bet...

    Buick Classic

    Did the Shigeki monster tee off today or not? He seems to have dissappeared but I had a match against him today!

    Buick Classic

    HATED IT! Anything that smacks of slow play SUCKS! Hubert Green was a speed machine compared to Serge.

    US OPEN II - the event itself

    Any reason not to like Estes $3? He has an Open style game and coming off victory I like the momentum play for ROBO.

    US Open

    Scalp on Franco widens with Camelot putting up at +150. Mark now has over 300 matchups/props up, truly staggering! I only have action on 290 of them, not able to keep up! LOL

    US Open

    LP, saw it -110 somewhere, sorry I can't remember where. Could try to middle with Mark's ov 68.5 -115. I wouldn't recommend it though, I wouldn't bet against him breaking par. GL
