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.

US PGA


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.

      Promo counter/ trade-show stand wanted for community art project.

      By Lillo · Posted

      A bit of a long shot but I'm on the lookout for a portable pop-up counter or podium.   The kind you often see on a high street, used by charities or utility companies to advertise their wares.   I've included a photo to give you the idea. I'm a peckham-based artist and am looking for one for a free (and non-profit) community art project.  It can be in any workable condition and can already have signage on it as we will remove and redecorate ourselves.    Thanks in advance, Linzie

      Cllr Williams to stand down

      By Rockets · Posted

      No I absolutely did not - that much is clear. Have you read the latest stories about Unite, Len and the hotel in Birmingham? The UK electorate were smart enough to reject a far-left party in 2019, let's hope they are smart enough to reject a far-right party at the next election too. If not we are all doomed.

      Electrician (Highly recommended) - James Seth

      By AlanMBarr · Posted

      I would also like to add my recommendation for James.  I had taken four names of electricians from the forum - in the order I had read the reviews.  First three no response - even days later. I phoned James this morning. He answered, gave me a time, stuck to it, messaged again 15 mins before arrival.  He fixed my problem on the spot.  Sensible charge out fee. Perfect service.

      Cllr Williams to stand down

      By David Peckham · Posted

      Most recent polls for the next election suggest it will be a hung parliament, with Reform the largest party by a fair margin. But that is predicated on Reform finding around 300 candidates who are actually electable. Given the number of Reform council candidates who have had to drop out prior to or after the local elections, does that seem likely? Social media is pretty unforgiving when it comes to finding skeletons in cupboards; a retweet or a like seems enough to scupper political ambitions. A few may defect from other parties, but do you think the electorate would really vote for so many brand new MPs from a newish party?  I'm not so sure.
