Shankieboink's 10 000$-100 000$ challenge

[Wild Turkey]

Any picks in for the Open?

[Frankensteins Monster]

Looks like the thread should be renamed "Shankieboink's 10 000$-0$ challenge" with how things are going!

I'm just kidding Shankie. Good luck man.

Just stop betting on Kisner and you should be good.

Absolutely! Spieth is of course the big favourite, but I don't like his preparations playing in the US just to reload for a major in europe this week. He won last week, but the best players weren't there. And 7x is a bit worse than my expected value for him this week. I like Henrik Stensons chances this week. Looks like he's back to the form he was earlier this year before he got sick. He knows the course and has had good finnishes at the Open several times. The other guy I'm betting on this week is Oosthuizen. Last time the Open was played at the old course he won by 7 shots. He showed good form in this years "links styled" US Open for a T2.

[b]Open Championship[/b]
Henrik Stenson (23x) $150
Louis Oosthuizen (23x) $150

Funds: $2180

[RichardLee]

those are good bets - good luck this week

[notsohard]

Could it be Jason Days turn for a major?

[scotee]

Bubba
Sneds
Kuchar

I think the winner comes out of either game 15 (Garcia, reed, Westwood) or 41 ( Scott, kaymer, walker)

That being said I like your bets

Hmm... I wouldn't touch game 15 with a 48" long-driver.

[Gamble Gamble]

Drop the hammer on Z Johnson!

1250 gets you to 100,000

you thrown any in at 80/1 ?

[c7015]

I thought Victor Dubiuisson at 100/1 was a good bet ... but did not place any money

[Shankieboink]

Paul Lawrie, live bet. He is going to love the wind tomorrow, and when he is on..He's usually on (heard some good stuff also).

Paul Lawrie (56x) $180
Funds: $2000

[straightshot7]

I'm not sure how he did today, but I thought about betting Charley Hoffman at 125/1. But i dont have an account lol

Yea I threw in 100 @ 80/1

plus 25 for 16/1 that he is in the top 5 to give me a mini hedge.

Hopefully the early tee time tomorrow will help.

Haha fair enough there is some baggage being carried and I also dislike reed but I thought at least one of them was going to play well. Just checked and they're all 3 under with 4 to play in the second round so not out of it.

I just wanted to look a little outside the box...

I knew this bet was going to be placed if the odds were halfway decent, nicely done getting it in early. I hope he plays well tomorrow its a long day tough on the old body...

[Afraid2goLow]

any more bets? The Louis bet looks great right now Shankie.

just placed a bet on Rose and Sergio at 20 and 22.

No, I'm hoping for Louis now. Yeah, Sergio is in a great position. Flying under the radar with no presure. My bet on Lawrie looked perfect until saturdays game was canceled. Had they played in strong wind the leaderboard would have been totally different.

[Blade Junkie]
