yes, goosen , looks too big, thinking of a eachway bet when all prices are out

After much statistical research (wikipedia), my fivers are going on;

Mickelson (BF: 15.5)
In the last 15 years @ the Masters, he's finished top 10 in all but 3 of the years and has experienced winning it twice.

Goosen (25 or 26 @ Fred/Lads)
From 2002-2007, he finished 2-T3 4 times but last year failed to make the cut. In his last 14 tournies though, he's made top 10 eleven times so form+experience means I'm on him.

Ogilvy (48)
In his four Masters attempts, he's yet to miss a cut yet his best place came last year T15 so he hasn't experienced going down to the wire at this event. However, he has experienced winning PGA events including a major so all-in-all, worth a go.

Singh (95)
Hasn't missed a cut at the Masters for 11 years in which time he's won it once and finished top 10 another 5 times.
2009 was a poor year for him so even at 95 it's a bit hit and miss but his experience might mean he can at least put in a decent show.

Merrick (490)
First time at the Masters last year and finished T6. He's had a number of top 10 finishes in the last couple of years.

Woods is 7.0/6.6 with Lads, I could have had £1K on. A nice arb to begin with.

Merrick's seen some action and is now 370 but I'm holding out until he's 3.7

There were some massive price swings on Tiger yesterday on the basis of one good/bad shot, for example from 3.8 up to 5, so some good opportunities there - shame I was on the wrong side of one. Would help if you had dedicated pictures of just one group.

Also, when the markets go out of play overnight the prices tend to stay constant, thus so far I have had 5 lots of 400 back/lays taken at 3.9/3.85, and a couple late last night at 4.2/4.1.

The only one I actually traded was Merrick when he was at 290 I covered my stake back to leave a good profit should he go on to win. Thankfully Mickelson hit some great shots and made my little adventure worthwhile.

Nice call music , i backed mickleson in a few arbs myself and had a few quid on him , i backed els in running but he let me down , managed to do alot of trading on my trading account even using 50 stakes i was up 400 green on mickleson and westwood , definitly going to look into trading golf again .

Stuck 2k on mickleson when he was winning with 4 holes left he was only 1.29 but bottled it and traded out ,then cause i was having such a good tournament , i had a 2k lay on westwood at the start of the day , i never gave him a chance but he didnt play to badly .
