Ryder Cup Single Matchups

Ryder Cup Single Matchups Very disappointed with the single pairings. Want to go against Tiger with both barrels but Francesco Molinari is perhaps the worst player on the Euros. [B]Ian Poulter -120 [/B]vs Matt Kuchar[B] 2 units[/B] We have yet to lose this year betting on Poulty the Matchplay machine. He isn't quite hitting it 100%, but the putting is ok. Kuch cannot putt on these slow greens and if the weather is rainy or windy I like our chances that much more.

The lines are moving super fast, Poulter -135 and climbing....I would play it at -145 or less.

That one stuck out to me as well and got -135. Surprised Monty put Donald and Westwood at the end.

Never mind. The order on Yahoo was backwards. Westwood-Stricker is Match 1, not Match 12. Mahan-McDowell is Match 12.

Here is the order (Matches 1-12): Stricker vs. Westwood Cink vs. McIlroy Furyk vs. Donald D Johnson vs. Kaymer Kuchar vs. Poulter Overton vs. Fisher Watson vs. Jimenez Woods vs. F Molinari Fowler vs. E Molinari Mickelson vs. Hanson Z Johnson vs. Harrington Mahan vs. McDowell

Got Poulter -0.5 at 2.05 on Betfair. Lines for halving the match is +560, so it should correspond to ML -130.

Betfair SO much better than what Matchbook's got--great liquidity and 25-75k per match already traded. Sigh. That said, Kuchar hitting the ball closer/better than Poulter and I'll be taking the other side of you guys here. Genuinely surprised at the #s as wanted to bet the Euros but will wind up going the other way (Bubba and Hunter plus money), save the requisite Kaymer play and my biggest bet, Hanson +125 over Phil. Hitting the ball WAY better and if you're going to fade Kuch b/c of the speed of the greens than you need to fade Phil too. just my two cents--good luck

adding [B]Luke Donald -130 [/B]vs Jim Furyk I wanted to get a bet down on who I think has played the best if not close to the best golf in this event. Luke has all parts of his game working for him. This will be somewhat of a revenge match from the Fed Ex Cup. Furyk not liking his pairings and did not win a point. Ryder Cup record to date: Luke Donald 7-2-1 Jim Furyk 8-14-4

Sig, you want no part of Bubba in matchplay, it is/was blatantly obvious that Jeff Overton carried his ass for 3 days, his style of play is no good head to head. I don't like Jimenez because of his poor Ryder Cup record and he cost me dearly in the WGC Matchplay...but if I were going to bet it, MAJ should be -160 or more. Poulter is the best matchplay golfer on the planet, his irons have been ok, if he puts it in play more, he'll do just fine. Kuch is very tired having played like 19 tournaments in a row and now this debacle, I see Poulter sooo much more motivated and passionate as well to win.
