BETTING: US Masters Golf action

First of all, I'd like to make it clear that I am a very casual golf fan.  Like a horse-racing punter who only bets when it comes to the Grand National, when it comes to Golf, I'm that man when it comes to the masters.

As ever, the goal is to make a profit, not to dine out and/or retire.

Right, disclaimers aside, I have done quite a bit of reading on masters stats and players histories/form and have decided to (casually) bet the following...

To finish in the top-10:
Lee Westwood @ 2.98 (2 pts)
Phil Mickelson @ 1.73 (2 pts)
Luke Donald @ 3.40 (2 pts)

To finish in the top-20:
Paul Casey @ 2.38 (2 pts)

To make the cut:
Ian Poulter @ 1.51 (5 pts)

Poker Results - Mar 2011

Although I put in only 3,997 hands during March, it was certainly eventful!


I started off very promisingly, followed by a pretty big downswing over a couple of sessions where I dropped about 8 buy-ins.  I spent the rest of the month vowing to recover and end the month break-even.  I played pretty well, and only some pretty sick coolers against one opponent in particular on the last day of the month stopped me ending up in profit.


All things considered, I'm happy to end the month down only 1.9 buy-ins!

Buy-ins: -1.9 over 3,977 hands.
Win-rate: -2.44 PTBB/100.

Below is my graph for the month with winnings (in PTBB) on y, and number of hands played on x.
