Pavin From Woods Kelly

Golf Betting Lines

From there, both players made pars despite having decent looks at birdie putts. Pavin holed a seven-foot par putt at the 10th that he did not think was going in, but maintained his four-stroke advantage.

 

At the par-five 15th, Pavin could only make a par, but Kelly, who ripped a drive almost through the fairway, reached the green in two. His 35-foot eagle putt did not fall, but he tapped in for birdie and found himself two behind with three to play.

 

Neither player could make birdie, but that was fine for Pavin as he walked off with the win.

 

Philadelphia, PA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - With her third victory of the season Saturday at the Evian Masters, Karrie Webb bumped Lorena Ochoa from the top of the LPGA Tour money list and also snatched her No. 3 position in the Rolex Women's World Rankings. Webb, now a 33-time winner on the LPGA Tour, also won the first major of the year, the Kraft Nabisco Championship, and the Michelob Ultra Open. Sunday, she beat 16-year-old Michelle Wie and two-time Evian Masters champion Laura Davies by one shot.

 

After Wie, Webb and Ochoa, Paula Creamer remained fifth and was again followed by Cristie Kerr, Juli Inkster, Yuri Fudoh and Jeong Jang, who will defend her Women's British Open title this week.

 

Grand Blanc, MI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Tiger Woods bogeyed his first hole after the re-start Saturday morning and fell one shot behind leader Brett Quigley at the Buick Open. Two weeks after winning the British Open, Woods stands at 12-under-par 132 through two rounds at Warwick Hills Golf and Country Club.

 

The tournament has struggled to catch up following two weather delays during the first round Thursday.

 

Two-time defending champion Vijay Singh -- the only three-time winner ever at this event -- went one-under on five holes Saturday morning and leads a group of four players who are tied for third place.

 

Jim Furyk leads a group of seven players who share seventh place at minus-10.

 

When play was completed Saturday, the cut line fell at three-under. Among those who will miss the weekend are Chris DiMarco, who finished second to Woods at Royal Liverpool, and David Toms.

NFL Football Betting Online

In terms of sports wagering, the NFL is "the most popular game in town." The explanation behind that is easy.

It is called the "pointspread."

Many years ago, NFL games, as well as the more popular college games, used straight odds as a vehicle for betting. For example, if the Bears were playing the Giants, and it shaped up as a competitive contest, the Bears might be, say, a 7/5 favorite. If they were playing an also-ran, it might be 10/1. Well, there is a point where a line becomes prohibitive, as far as betting the favorite. And who would waste money betting an underdog that has virtually no chance? Such a setup did not contribute to promoting betting action.

But in modern sports betting, a "pointspread" is used.

A NFL pointspreads are exactly that, a pre-established point difference between the two sides that will, for all intents and purposes, create a handicap that evens things out, and in doing so, produces comparable wagering activity on both sides of that proposition. So in lieu of a odds figure in which to bet the team to win outright, the Bears might be a three-point favorite over the New York Giants, and a 17-point favorite over the also-ran. Now that the team that is the underdog can "get" points, there can be equal action on both sides.

In sportsbooks, this is usually done with efficiency by charging the losing bettors 10% extra - in effect, bettors are laying 11/10 on those games. So they are actually betting $110 to win $100. If they lose, they pay the "vig." If they win, they simply collect.

The establishment of the pointspread as the corner stone around which team sports like football can be wagered upon was truly what brought gridiron betting into the stratosphere for online football betting .
