so how much is that to win?

Correct - even money on the live bets prior to yesterday’s round.

Contracts settle at 1.00 - 2% commission - so paid 48 cents and 2 cent commission.


It’s still amazing to me WSEX came up with this idea like 30 years ago - but just now beginning to catch on like wildfire amongst the public.

RH is the only way I will bet golf and soccer now.

Aside from the more reasonable vig on dogs - you can also bet if a side/participant will or won’t win.

How long until someone is running a rewards program or offering half vig on big events ? 2% is still a decent profit. Only downside is eventually someone is going to get greedy making their own markets and get burned doing this on their own exchange. It’s happened before and it will happen again.

Yeah as usual impossible to win. Bet a round 4 matchup. My guy is 7 under, problem is the other guy is 8 under lolol. I’d be pissed if Noren won. I was staring at his number all week on Monday and Tuesday debating if I should bet him.
Miracle birdie on 18 for Noren to push matchup bet. Now I have to pray he doesn’t win. I’ll be so pissed. He was +4200

Just a mind boggling bet. Zero upside. 4 day grind for +135. I don’t care who it is. There’s so much luck involved in winning a golf tournament. You knew he wasn’t winning Sunday morning because he wasn’t even the favorite one or two strokes back. They still had Straka as the favorite. Never bet favorites to win golf tournaments. Find someone minimum 8-1. I don’t think outside of Rahm to win the Spanish open 2018 or 2019 I’ve never bet a favorite pre tournament. Sweating a +135 to win a four day golf tournament is mind boggingly stupid, borderline retarded.
