Wait you win a matchup bet if you bet against someone that withdrawals?

Webb Simpson withdrew too. What a cluster.

If they start the tournament and your opponent withdraws in R2 due to covid you should win based on the rules. If they don't start it's cancelled.

Ah ok I gotcha.

Well on the bright side this should help out our Rory Rahm Im odds to win.

Good news from the commish. Positive tests expected no problem with everyone else playing if they're fine with it.

It's a good thing we didn't switch to 100,000 simulations per round this week. Takes about 15 minutes for just 10,000 and re-running it for the 4th time now due to Webb news.

I'm not rererunning. I'm just superoverweight on Rahm now, due to laziness. I'm drinking by a pool. F-that.

Most of my Webb shares went to Rahm, while my Brooks share went to Cantlay.

It's easier.

Oh, and I got a little Sahith Theegala at 6300. This kid can play. Maybe won't work out this week, but keep an eye out.

Didn't stop me from submitting my 150 losers but DK milly ownership going to be a disaster with Brooks and Webb out.

Was heavy on Rory/Rahm/Sungjae first run already. Amateur contact tracers are suggesting Rory & Reed could have been exposed to Brooks' caddie. Maybe Cantlay/Rose are the two lowest owned >$9k who don't have covid?

Benefits from Webb being out

Rahm down to +1082 (from +1400 or so before), so our +16XX looks good
Rory down to +1004
Im +2799
Scheffler +4517

our Xander top American prop got a lot of value

DFS bad tho because I think Webb Simpson would have been high owned and not that good this week, but what can you do.

I was going to go Im/Morikawa/Reed/Fitz/Scheff/Hovland on DK for cash

and replace Reed for Leishman on FD

maybe we should load up on non north american golfers tho because we haven't figured out covid yet.

If I try and fit in Rahm or JT then I have to go Ryan Moore and I don't really want that.

I thought Webb would've been sneaky low owned. Last week he was 9800 on DK and the jump on price to 10500 to 3rd when Rahm is cheaper, led me to think he'd be underowned.

I had him in 1/3 of my lineups, though.

I read that the two caddies who tested positive were both at the same funeral on Monday June 15th prior to RBC Heritage

If we are playing fade the corona

Vaughn Taylor and Luke List played with Nick Watney on day 1

Vaughn Taylor played with CT Pan and Joel Dahmen (Day 3)

Dahmen played with Joaquin Niemann (Day 4)

McDowell played with Louis Oosthuizen (cut) and Lanto Griffin (cut)

Brooks Koepka played with Daniel Berger (2), Ian Poulter (3), Dustin Johnson (4), Patrick Reed (2, cut after 2)

Berger played with Ortiz (4), Spieth (3)

Poulter played with Fitzpatrick (4)

Spieth played with Danny Lee (4)

All those people could have been infected.

Making any adjustments based on your first-hand knowledge of the corona?

Initially have Rahm & Moore for cash but can see where a little more balance and higher made cut chance could have a higher median.

I'm worried with Reed and Fitzpatrick in my COVID-19 tracking model. Think I'm going to have to set an alarm for 3am to check.

Only gonna do 20 max for millionaire. Not gonna deal with this max entering during covid. Tho it might be the only way to win. COVID leverage

If player/caddie hasn't tested positive by now, the next date they will be tested is Saturday. However, they will only be tested on Saturday if they are playing the next event AND taking the charter flight to Rocket Mortgage. Results from this test come back by Sunday morning, so that would be the next time they could have a positive test unless they experience symptoms/self-report like Watney.

Of all the players listed above, only the guys listed below are playing Rocket Mortgage:

Pan, Vaughn, Dahmen, Lanto, DJ, Danny Lee

This could change by Friday however when the deadline hits. If they aren't playing next week, my understanding of the testing procedure is that they will not be tested for the remainder of the week.

I hope they don't do some increased testing to show they're trying to contain an un-containable virus.

I'll probably just keep everything but wake up at 3am just in case. Don't want to throw away 10k in cash games over something stupid like Reed coughing too much.

I probably overdid DFS cash. Looked into diversifying but projected score goes to **** really fast if I start pulling out my most undervalued guys. I have all those dudes in match-ups and as outrights too. I wonder how John Kelly would feel about overbetting your edge amidst a global pandemic. Does uncertainty over future earning potential make it okay to YOLO it or is it even worse?

scottie scheffler steam is coming in late

we did it guys

Bookmaker just posted a bunch of match-ups with 10k limits involving the Martin Trainer's of the world. Covid must have broken the brain of their graveyard shift golf trader.

Xinjun Zhang vs. DJ Trahan lol i gotta look at these

Been waiting my whole life for this moment, it feels like a trap.

I was hoping we would have a bet on Vijay Singh but guess not. I like how Martin Trainer at +300 doesn't even have value for me. How is he allowed to golf.

i think it's safe to say your h2hs are much bigger than mine but i've never found anything but misery and pain when deviating from a single cash line

much better to lose everything than to second guess yourself later


easier said with the stake i play though

really struggling to decide upon a cash line for yahoo

currently on rahm/cantlay/moore/fitz/scheffler/tringale

Yahoo cash went with Rory/Rahm/Ancer/Fitz/Moore/ [insert min-price guy]. Wanted to play Bryson since he's cheaper there than other sites so went there for tourneys.
