    I'm sticking a few squid on the WGC golf today. Betting on golf is tough like all other sports because if someone hits a hot streak on the day they can make the favourites look like long shots. I'm just gonna pick a couple out and hope i get lucky. My 1st selection is:

    Charl Schwartzel - Schwartzel is currently the best golfer in europe this term, he's won 2 out of his last 4 events and currently leads the European Tour's Race to Dubai. Still too early to judge how much of an impact he's gonna have on the game but while he's on a hot streak i'm gonna stick a quid on him at 66/1.

    I'll post some more before the 6pm tee-off time.

    Martin Kaymer - He has finished within the top-10 at five out of his last nine events and his putting ability is class, finishing 2nd in putts per round last year on the European Tour. Well worth a big blind at 18/1.

    Ross Fisher - In 2009, Fisher won the European Open, finished fourth at the WGC-Accenture Match Play, second at the BMW PGA Championship, fifth at the US Open, tied for 13th at the Open Championship, tied for 19th at the US PGA Championship and won the Volvo World Match Play Championship.  Has the ability to match the top players in the world and is brilliant at match play. 28/1

    Chris Wood - Now this is a real longshot but he's the reigning European tour rookie of the year and has a lot of raw talent. If old grandpa Tom Watson can do so well in a major(wish i'd have stuck a few quid on him e/w at the Open championship last year) then what's to say this kid won't hit form in the WGC and compete. I've stuck a quid on this at 175/1.

    Nooooo how could I miss these bets???? Dont golf tournys normally start on a Thursday? Im getting the sky sports score centre up as I type....I hope theyre all still in so I can get on em! Ahh Swartzel I think is the only one left, no wonder Wood was 175/1 playing Westwood in the first round....Love this format. Gonna go stick a few quid on the South African. Cheerz, DOHH

    Good grief, bet your glad you didn't see my post yesterday, what a let down Ross Fisher was. Come on Schwartzel, bring home the bacon.

    Hopeing for a few more winning tips this weekend...my selections for 2moro are

    2.45 Ascot Zabeel Palace 11/2 the only gamble with this horse is if it handles the soft ground if it does it should steam in

    3.35 Haydock Le Beau Bai 6/1 it will love a good slog in the heavy ground and looks a good bet at 6/1

    gl with your bets

    I just worked out what a lucky15 would pay on them 4horses its around £38..there odds are Diamond Harry 4/5...Long Run 1/2..Denman 1/7 lol shocking...& Master Minded 4/7...Im not to sure but i would say if 3 won u wud still be in very small profit...Yea im a big diamond harry fan aswell, im tempted to back him at 4/5 hes looked a real machineee on his last 2 starts over fences..

    Carlton Cole first goal scorer & West Ham to win 1-0 tonight

    150/1!!!

    People thought I was crazy a few years ago when I did Tevez to score in a 1-0 win for us at Old Trafford @ 80/1 and it came in.

    Definitely worth a £1

    I believe nap comes from the card game napollian in which your best hand was known as a NAP hand

    I tried to have a small £1 each way double on these but Skybet stopped working so I'll take that as a sign not to bother!

    haha I like it EE!! - So accurate too !!! - I spoke to him in one of the TKO games a few weeks ago, and since then, he hasn't been bak! Doubled in 1 hand on NL20 at 6am this morning when I couldnt sleep, so I have £20 quid stake money - normally limit it to £6 for horses and £4 footy....

    Go spend it for me pick some one or something from any live televised sporting event - and im on it.

    I was at huntingdon races 2day and this old geezer tipped up a steamer of an e/w bet for cheltenham..So i thort it would be rude not 2 post it on this thread.

    Jack The Giant 33/1 in the ryanair chase

    Skybet are non runner money back on all cheltenham races now, so this bet looks like a real cracker jacker..gl look if u decide 2 follow this advice from some random man lol im on..
