Red Eye-These guys obviously don't understand your argument and you guys obviously aren't going to agree on if Tiger should be favored or not. Why even both with them? This has seriously turned into 2 pages of the same argument over and over. It would save you some time to just realize they dont comprehend your side of the argument and not worry about them.

how is fading Tiger working out for ya this week? lmao....geez, i dont know why tiger is favored to win a major? its not like he is the greatest golfer to ever play or anything....its not like he was competitive in every major last year or anything....i just dont understand why the books would have tiger as the fav
tiger -150 over mahan round 2 easy money....
thanks for getting me fired up enough to make that wager red eye....now mush along
for some reason your still not comprehending anything I have said. Last time I will say it. My bet is -120 for Tiger not to win a major ! How is this weekend got to do with that bet ? Tell us all please. Now answer that and move on rookie ! If you want to ridicule me for the -120 no major play, go ahead,be my guest, but not from some make believe bet that I don't have posted.
Another great round for Tiger today. 5 bogeys including 1 double bogey. He had an Eagle but who the hell cares. He's 10 strokes off the lead. Another mediocre performance at the Masters is coming up. Has any athlete fallen farther than Tiger. This is like MJ at the top of his career going from the best player in the NBA to a bench player. I'm not talking about his stint in Washington. This is the equivalent of MJ winning NBA titles with the Bulls and the next season going to the bench and being a sub in garbage time.
LOL, why are you directing your comment towards me? And explain exactly how you fade one golfer in a tournament and win money? Its not like a team sport where you fade one team and get the other. There are over 100 other golfers in a tournament with Tiger. To make money in a single tournament you have to pick the winner not just bet that Tiger wont win. And read my posts again and tell me where I am betting Tiger or said he will win the Masters? All Ive done is answer the question the original poster made to start this thread...
I'm just pointing out that the prices on Tiger to win are absolutely ridiculous given his recent performances and there are several places out there where you can bet a golfer not to win; you usually have to lay healthy odds but Tiger's the best fade around right now. FWIW, the tournament in which Tiger is currently ten shots back is a tournament that he has previously won six times so it looks like his past perfromance at a particular tournament (like the masters) is irrelevant at this time.
There sure are a bunch of ppl talking in here that know absolutely zero about golf. Red eye, im not going back to look it up, but if it wasn't you that said tiger is the best fade in the business, then I'm sorry. If you are betting on him round by round this week, you have made money. I only bet on him on sat, and I could care less about posting my picks, I follow cappers on here that are smart campers, and you aren't one of them.
Now, red eye. -120 for tiger not to win a major is good, I will admit. It's close to even money that he doesn't win one of the 4 hardest tourn...Any other golfer would play plus money for that bet, which is why Tiger is the fav (which is what this thread is about)
Last post I'm making in here, as the post in this thread are getting dumber and dumber with each one, if you don't know why Tiger Woods is the fav to win the masters, you are a complete idiot.

I don't disagree that prices on Tiger are ridiculous but didn't realize there were places where you could actually place a bet on him just not winning. But then, I rarely place wagers on golf so don't usually look for them. As far as his play at certain courses over the years where he has dominated, keep in mind that the Masters at Augusta is a completely different scenerio. There is no place in the world where knowledge of a course means so much. Augusta is a very unique course and this is why players like Tiger, Phil, Olazabal, Couples, etc. have a huge advantage over others no matter how well or how poorly they are playing. Keep in mind that Mickelson has not won a tournament since his Masters win a year ago and has had just 6 top 10's in his last 20 tournaments(Tiger has had 4 in that same time period in 17 tournaments) and he is the second favorite. Its obvious, the books feel course knowledge and the fact its a major weigh more than how well a player is playing. Again, I am not saying Tiger will win, but I would be surprised if he is not in the hunt come Sunday...
Your right they are getting dumber and dumber. Again, I haven't posted and fades, or by the round, just my -120 no Major play, thats it. Do you get it now ? As far as telling us that alot of us know nothing about golf, at least those posters including myself are not telling us they are betting on Tiger after the round has started. That is the sign of a rookie. The dumb people in here can check the time of the post. Don't come in here thinking your smarter then us,calling us dumb,and post a play after the round has started. We aren't so dumb after all. BTW, we are not idiots because we don't understand why he is the favorite for the Masters, we do understand it fool, thast why got the -120 play, most of us are just saying he shouldn't be because of the last 17 months where he has failed miserably on all courses he has played well in the past.
Oh wow, im sorry but you just proved you are not that knowledgeable about golf and the Masters. Augusta IS That special. And if you were at all knowledgeable about golf, you would agree with this. And realize this, I am not the one saying this, all the players will tell you the same thing. Ive heard it 1000 times over the years from all of them. Its the one thing that seperates this tournament from any other in the US. I say the US, because many of the courses they play for the British Open are the same way. Course knowledge for these 2 tournaments are without a doubt the most important thing there is. You can and probably will disagree with me, but I guarantee you all the players would agree with me...
Here is an article I found that was written after the 2nd round of last years tournament concerning knowledge of the course. Don't believe me, believe the players...
