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.

      Dulwich Eco Gardening - Professional Landscape Gardening / Design

      By AylwardS · Posted

      Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.

      Cllr Williams to stand down

      Oh dear, hope you are OK, I've had it three times and it was worse each time, but not a patch on many of those who got it before they vac' role out. Not commenting on the discussion as I got confused many days ago beyond the reminder that Corbyn would not compromise and the harm that could lead to him, the party and regards Brexit pre and post referendum the country.  Starmer goes too far the other way at times.

      I am  ill in bed with Covid. It's not that I "can't be bothered" to read things. I am feeling crap and don't have the mental  energy at the moment. I am not "brushing stuff aside and pleading ignorance." I am truthfully saying when I don't presently know enough about something to be able to comment. I have always been very careful to try to  differentiate between fact and opinion in both  my posts and other people's, and I am not clear what your point is. And I am certainly not trying to wind anybody up. This is a forum. If you don't want to respond to my posts, that's up to you. I'm not sure why you feel the need to announce it.
