3M Open

[Fader]

After the madness of last week, we have the 3M open. This event looks very low in quality and for me it's all about huge prices each-way.

1pt E/W R.Henley to win the 3M Open 33/1 williamhill (8 places 1/5th)
1pt E/W E Van Rooyen to win the 3M Open 35/1 williamhill (8 places 1/5th)
1pt E/W S.Burns to win the 3M Open 45/1 williamhill (8 places 1/5th)
1pt E/W H. Norlander to win the 3M Open 60/1 williamhill (8 places 1/5th)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
0.5pts E/W C.Hoffman to win the 3M Open 70/1 williamhill (8 places 1/5th)
0.5pts E/W W.Clark to win the 3M Open 80/1 williamhill (8 places 1/5th)
0.5pts E/W E.Grillo to win the 3M Open 100/1 williamhill (8 places 1/5th)
0.5pts E/W X.Zhang to win the 3M Open 105/1 williamhill (8 places 1/5th)
0.5pts E/W S.Piercy to win the 3M Open 125/1 williamhill (8 places 1/5th)

Open event this still. Zhang right on there from your picks Fader. I also thought Van Rooyen would be suited here

Wolff is the standout name at half way and tempting to back. But looking for some value further down I've had a nibble Danny Lee 84/1 and Si Woo Kim 129/1 both Betfair. The latter might not always putt well enough in low scoring events (i have him down as a tough course specialist) , but he's a decent price if he can get the putter working

[Fader]

I like Danny Lee also. He was on my shortlist for this event and even more annoyingly so was Werenski. I hope he doesn't win.

[Fader]

Well alot of mine left it late. I didn't expect Thompson to see it through to be honest but he did. Quite a weak field. Zhang at T12 was rather annoying but Grillo snuck him and got a T3 with a -6 day. At only half a point each way that means a loss of 2.5pts here

Golf 2020 +127.74pts

Hi fellas, advice needed on this tournament, I had a £5 each way bet on Charl @9/1 1/4 odds first 3 and he finished joint 3rd of 9. My bookie refunded me £1.81 total, not even giving me my place stake back, is this correct?

[BillyHills]

I always thought you couldn't lose on a winning bet?

Tied with 8 others though, sounds about right

[Marvellous]

I didn’t think the stake money was affected though, surely it should have been divided out of the winnings which would have been £11.25 divided by 9 and the stake unaffected, how they’ve done it is with the stake included

[Fader]

the payout is different when so many people share the top 3 though, Marvellous

Welcome to forum by the way.

Thanks fader, but all that has done is make me question whether to bet each way on golf, just think it’s bizarre!

Thing is each-way top 3 is shocking placements. When did you bet that at them odds? must have been last day?

in general 8 places at a 1/5th odds is decent when you hit a 100/1 placing (20/1 placing)
