Daves Pro Golf Selections Week 8 January 18th to 23rd
Hi Bloggers
Well on to Week 8 this covered the Bob Hope Classic and Abu Dhabi HSBC Open we had 5 each way selections given for each tournament , this was reduced to 4 in the Bob Hope as T Clarke was a non starter. On to the results in the Bob Hope the service managed a joint second in B Haas at 22/1 who was beaten in the play offs, the other 3 were out of the frame. In the Abu Dhabi HSBC Open a second place for R Mc Ilroy at 11/1 was the best the service could manage here as well the remaining selections finished out of the places, for the Abu Dhabi we also had a total of 8 lays of which 6 were successful, one of these was a lucky one due to P Harrington being disqualified overall a loss of 4 points. In Week 7 i raised the subject of not been able to get odds or any betting for the lays, no such problem this week but the lay odds quoted in the e-mail for Day 1 actually matched the Back Odds the lay odds were higher,for example the losing lay for Mc Gowan was at 2.98 Back Odds (The odds quoted in the e-mail for Lay price) and as i only see 8.00 for the Lays thats what i have to go on, for E Molinari the back odds were 3.2 (Once again as quoted in the e-mail for Lay price) the actual Lay odds were 3.7, the same scenario applied the remaining 2 lay bets on Day 1, no odds were quoted for Day 2 Lays. Breakdown for the week is below and i shall be giving my Final Review on this one shortly.
