Offshore Waited To Last Hours

[bountyhunter]

FIRST, MY THANKS TO FRED WHO ALERTED ALL TO THE FACT THE ONLY TOURNAMENT OF 45 TOURNAMENTS TO PLAY MORE THAN 4 DAYS IS THE "BOB HOPE CHRYSLER OPEN".

FOR REASONS I DO NOT UNDERSTAND, IT IS ADVERTISED TO HANDICAPPERS AS A REGULAR 72-HOLE TOURNAMENT, WITH THE FIRST DAY'S PLAY NOT COUNTING.

DAY ONE WAS WHEN HOPE USED TO INVITE CELEBRITIES FROM HOLLYWOOD TO PLAY GOLF WITH THE PROS. THEN THE PROS THREW A FIT ABOUT HAVING TO PLAY GOLF 5 DAYS AND IT WAS CUT BACK TO A 4 DAY AFFAIR WITH FEWER CELEBS.

NOW, ITS BACK TO 5 AND WHAT DID PINNACLE DO? THEY WAITED UNTIL HOURS BEFORE THE WINDOWS CLOSE TO POST THEIR MATCHUPS.

BUT NOTICE THEY POSTED THEIR "ODDS TO WIN" THE ENTIRE TOURNEY MUCH EARLIER. TELL ME ROBERT WASN'T ON THE MONEY.

THANK YOU BRIAN AND ZANZ FOR POSTING THEM.

I HAVE A LOT OF WORK TO DO IN JUST A FEW HOURS AS YOU MUST GET DOWN BEFORE 9, EASTERN TIME AND THE CASINO'S WILL NOT TAKE ANYMORE BETS AFTER 11 PACIFIC.

IF PINNACLE WANTS TO PLAY GAMES, I'VE GOT A GREAT ONE! IT HAS TO DO WITH BUSTING (GOLF) BALLS.

BEST,

BOUNTY HUNTER

Ron, Check out Pinnacles match-ups. Some of the match ups are dated Wednesday 1/29 and some are dated Thursday 1/30. Whats up with that. Do you think Pinnacle was not smart enough to know it was a 5 day tourny and posted thier match-ups as normal?????????

Also, All the times say 6:00 a.m. Check it out

[Zanz]

You can wager on Bob Hope Classic at Pinnacle until 6AM Pacific on Wednesday. I believe most other offshores are similar.

I think they usually get out the matchups and lines on Tuesday. Just unfortunate for us that tournament starts on wednesday.

HEY GUYS,

I AM IN NEED OF AN INTRAVENOUS CAFFINE INJECTION.

THIS PINNACLE RUSE IS UNCALLED FOR. FIRST THEY POST THE ODDS ON MONDAY. WITH AN ODDS POST CAME A PROPOSITION BET. BUT IT WAS ABOUT TIGER WOODS WINNING ALL FOUR MAJORS.

QUESTION. WHY DIDN'T THEY PUT UP THE MATCH-UP PROPS TOO.

ROBERT (SEE PREVIOUS POST) SAID ALL THE OFFSHORE MATCHUPS WERE IN THE HANDS OF RESPECTIVE OPERATORS BY THE TIME LAS VEGAS GAVE OUT THEIRS.

I PICKED MINE UP AT LUNCH ON THE STRIP MONDAY AT NOON.

ALSO, I CAN INFORM YOU THAT THE LARGEST HANDICAPPER IN LAS VEGAS TOLD ME THEY GOT A PGA MESSAGE SIMILAR TO MINE LAST WEEK.

IT SAID "DAY ONE" WOULD NOT COUNT IN THE SCORING. THEN A SECOND EMAIL, WHICH MUST HAVE GOTTEN LOST IN A FLOOD OF QUESTIONS I WAS TRYING TO ANSWER, RETRACTED THE FIRST.

THE IDEA OF BOB HOPE WAS TO HAVE FUN WITH THE HOLLYWOOD CELEBS. BUT THE PROS DISLIKED PLAYING 5 DAYS WITH THEM.

SO, THE TOURNAMENT WENT TO 72 - HOLES FOR A YEAR AND THEN
THOSE PROS WHO WERE STILL BITCHING ABOUT THE CELEBS, WERE NOT INVITED.

AS A CONCESSION TO THE AGING HOPE, THE CELEBS WOULD GET TO PLAY, BUT ONLY 4 OF THE 5 DAYS.

THIS TOURNAMENT IS A MIND BENDING 90-HOLES! ONLY 128 PROS ARE PLAYING AND ANOTHER 100 CELEBRITIES ARE GOING TO SCREW AROUND THE COURSE, PLAYING OUT OF THE WOODS AND SANDTRAPS AND DESERT.

BESIDES ALL THIS, THE PRO'S HAVE TO CONTEND WITH 4 COURSES! CAN YOU IMAGINE?

A. INSTEAD OF PLAYING WITH FELLOW PROS THEY HAVE TO ENDURE DUFFERS AS PLAYING PARTNERS.

B. INSTEAD OF 4 DAYS PLAY, 72 holes, THE PROS MUST TRY TO KEEP TRULY FOCUSED FOR 5-DAYS AND 90 holes.

I HAD 10% OF MY NORMAL TIME TO GET THIS PICK OUT AND I HAVE URGED MY CLIENTS TO CONSIDER IT A ONE-STAR PLAY.

1-STAR= 20% LESS THAN YOU WOULD WAGER ON FTBALL GAME.

2-STARS=10% LESS THAN YOU WOULD WAGER ON A " ".

3-STARS= BET WHAT YOU WOULD ON AN AVERAGE FBALL WAGER.

4-STARS= BET 1 & 1/2 TIMES MORE THAN ON NORMAL " ".

5-STARS= BET "THE RANCH AND THE DOG" ON THIS PICK!

MY EMAILS REFLECT A GROWING DISAPPOINTMENT WITH PINNACLE'S ANTICS. FOR INSTANCE:

Hello Ron

I emailed Pinnacle asking about their failure to timely post the matchups. Hopefully they will post head to head matchups later.

They had them up by this time last tuesday. (AND THAT MATCH, THE "PHOENIX OPEN", STARTED 2 DAYS LATER!)

Looks like you scared them.

I guess we/you are just gunna have to find another book that will and can handle golf bets without getting scared away. It will be tough with different books having different matchups. One would think they would go with what Vegas puts up.

Anyways, I'm stuck with Pinnacle for now. When and if another book is found or chosen I will have to deposit some funds and play with them.

What a quandry huh?
