Er....isn't that the same as the 'place' part of an EW bet Mick?


(Ignore him Declan he's in the red at the mo - you can bet championship winner + Top 5 and that's an EW bet, whatever he Says)

I have Darren Clarke at -4 (110/1) and Lowry at -3 (150/1) ... thats about it from my opening bets.


Feel dreadful about Rory - could have cried for him as he left the 18th green tonight. Would be v pleased for him to be under par tomorrow.


Where is citizened with his latest predictions?

Surely with e/w what you win is determined by the final placing i.e the higher the place the bigger the win. Going for a winner AND a top 5 place is not quite the same thing is it? The potential winnings are fixed when you place the bet.

Declan - each way is a win bet and a place bet. So it is the same thing as doing the a win bet and a place bet seperatley. The only difference is that the separate bets may not have exactly matching odds - that might be the point you are making.


But its not right to say that the higher the place the bigger the win, as its only if the player wins that you get the win bet money, other placings 2nd / 4th pay out the same money on the place bet element.

Have the customary majors bet on Rory (just about remembered to do it) at 19/1. Have added Zach Johnson tonight as he is going well.


York Ebor meeting


Am off to York races Tuesday with some work friends, which was a day picked at random and guess what I'm will see Rip van Winkle in the Juddmonte (Harbinger was to be fav but retired) so I will see my man in the flesh. Has not won this season but maybe Tuesday is his day - trouble is he is always v short odds.

I blew all my WC winnings on the Open golf. I'm never betting on golf again. As for Tevez, I was reading yesterday that he'd fallen out of love with the game after the WC and really is only playing for the money so he can go back home in 2/3 years. That doesn't sound hungry enough to me! Besides he's playing in a side that may not even gel for some time.

      Dirty Business on Channel 4

      The programme was brilliant and makes me wary now of sea paddling as so many areas affected. My daughter was working at a bank when privatisation of utility companies were floated. Bank advised its staff that only x number of shares could be purchased by individuals as Government rules at that time. She reported that certain people were seeking double and triple shares. Bank told her to ignore the guidelines as those customers had thousands of pounds in the bank. She was so disgusted at the banks attitude she handed in her notice, She decided that the financial world was too corrupt. Two degrees later - she now works in the NHS as an OT in mental health unit.

      Out of the corner of my eye I thought I saw a white (?cabbage white?) butterfly. It's awfully early, isn't it?

      Petition: Urge Israeli Government to stop law allowing execution of Palestinian prisoners

      By IlonaM · Posted

      Petition Urge Israeli Government to stop law allowing execution of Palestinian prisoners The UK Government must act urgently to urge the Israeli Government to stop the proposed law which would permit the execution of Palestinian Prisoners, past, present and future. More details We believe that such a law would constitute complete violation of the Geneva Convention and International Human Rights Law. UN experts have called for these proposals to be dropped. We call on the UK Government apply considerable and substantial political pressure and the leverage of its international obligations to prevent the Israeli Government from passing this law.
