Default 2019 Masters

Big bet made on Tiger in Vegas @ 14/1 . If he wins the bet, he stands to get $1 million, Crazy stuff.

https://www.yahoo.com/sports/if-tige...165806334.html

So who do you like for it ?

I think Molinari, Rose, Mcllroy are strong in here with Kisner, Koepka, and Casey as well

Have the below lineups in Millionaire maker.. Have highlighted also in 9 50-50's ($5 to $100). Tip to Derby Trailers and a Redboard.. Play the SINGLE ENTRY 50-50's you are not exposed to Pro's with hundreds of entries.. Played every week this year and lost only once... Only problem is that there aren't enough.

Betting Wise $20 on

Koepka 30/1
Rahm 20/1
Matsuyama 33/1
DeChambeau 30/1
Fleetwood 30/1
Schauffele 40/1
Casey 28/1

You get a $50 K Budget to build a team of 6 players. Players salaries are set according to their potential based upon the sites Algorithm.
These Players get points for Birdies, Pars, Eagles, Standing in Tourney and lose points for Bogeys and worse.... Like fantasy football... In this tourney McIllroy is $11,600 where the lowest salary player is $6000. These 50/50's pay ROUGHLY half the field but not quite as that is the takeout... Key is to have as many players make the cut so they are scoring on weekend. You can lose 1 and get paid but more than 1 you have to be spot on your others... As I said before you want to play SINGLE ENTRIES where someone can't submit more than 1 entry... Otherwise you are up against SHarps that will submit 1 Lineup hundreds of times and they know what they are doing.... For these majors they also have a contest that pays $1 Million to winner but you are competing with about 250 K Entries.. This is a lottery ticket to me... I got hot once and hit for $800 in one. Its fun. I also do football but other sports like baseball require too much management as you need to be on top of lineups for players scratching... Football you pretty much know ahead of time.

Truth is stranger than fiction. Congratulations to Tiger Woods . Amazing feat and some exciting stuff to watch today. Nice bet by that guy too. Nice to back up an opinion with such conviction.

That's amazing. I think we all assumed it was some wealthy guy who placed the bet. I did not expect it to be a guy who was putting every dime to his name on Tiger.

LOL... A man betting his last dime usually doesn’t have 80 K worth of “SOME” Amazon stock to sell.
