This pairing will produce the winner. What the heck, I buy lotto tickets at 13,000,000: 1 so why not bet against Tiger?

Betting against Tiger would be better odds than winning the lotto. The players within a couple of strokes are all capable of shooting a 65 or 66, and Tiger, a 67 or 68. I think, however, playing in the same pairing with Tiger is bad news. Isn't it true that his fellow competitor almost always shoots his worst score in the last round? I'd bet at even odds that Tiger will lose to someone in the group ahead of him, not with whom he's paired, when he finally does lose after having or being tied for the lead after 54 holes. The implication is, playing in the same twosome probably costs the other guy a couple of strokes. Here's a funny thought. There's a reasonable chance a bet like that would never be settled!

Tiger doesn't win about three times out of four. You win the lottery about one time in 100 million. Mumble mumble, carry the one.... yup, you're right.

I don't think so. There was a lot of "well Tiger has to lose sometime" when talking about him leading after the 3rd round of a major. He'll use that for motivation and make it 12-0. -- Jake "muk" <mukhp@NOSPAMhotmail.com > wrote in message news:2sqge2l9j6kj2eg81q4s6u79dsi2kcdhd1@4ax.com... > This pairing will produce the winner. > > What the heck, I buy lotto tickets at 13,000,000: 1 so why not bet > against Tiger? >
