2023-5 OZgolf Punters Club

[AndyP]

Hey punters

BITS has handed over the administration of the OZgolf Punters Club to me.

Currently we have the below punters invested in the club. If you would like to withdraw or gain entry, please let me know ASAP before we kick things off again. The current total is nearly $2100, so the payout/entry would be about $120, but I can finalise that when the current rotation finishes.

I'm not going to change much, so I have copied the same rules below. I'll bump up the betting amount based on where the total ends up. I'll randomise the order again also.

Please keep the administration for this as easy as possible. Make the bets as clear as possible in this thread, maybe even a screenshot from Ladbrokes or another betting app, so I know exactly what I am betting on. Make sure you keep an eye on this thread for when it is your turn. I will not be chasing people via PMs or text messages.

Rules (updated 15/03/2025):

1. A once off payment of $36.77 secures you a share in the club. (payment to be made to OZgolf)
2. A roster will be drawn up and posted so everyone knows in what order they will be betting.
3. We will be using a Ladbrokes account. AndyP will place all bets to protect the account security.
4. A maximum of two bets to be placed per turn, for example, one $10 and one $25 bet for a total of $25.
5. If you double the money that you have bet, then you can punt again, i.e for a $35 outlay, a minimum of $70 collect is required to bet again. A bonus bet may count towards this.
6. Winnings to be distributed when everyone has punted or we will keep rolling.
7. We will only use the Punters Club thread on ozgolf.net for posting bets, and you will have 7 days to acknowledge that it is your turn and 14 days total to place your bet(s), before we move on to another punter. No other messaging services or PMs will be used, so if you are in the punters club, check OZgolf for updates. (Thread subscription link for immediate or daily notifications)
8. Have fun and win lots.

A win! I'm as shocked as you.

Excellent work! Now repeat.

I was keeping an eye on it earlier and it looked pretty safe. You should have gone with top 5.

Meanwhile in the snooker, O'Sullivan is 12-4 up against Junxu in a first to 13 match and the match will head into a third day. Quarter finals will then start tomorrow, Semis on Thurs, Final on Sunday.

Let's bring politics into this. Can you put on Labor to win Blair (QLD), and Sungjae Im to finish top 20 at the Byron Nelson.

Ladbrokes won't let me create a multi for this. It would have been $2.68. Im is $2.10 without the politics.

Meanwhile, O'Sullivan marches on and is 6-2 in his quarter final.

That's a shame. Just go the Im bet by itself then.

[AndyP]

It's on for a $73.50 return.

[AndyP]

Our man Ronnie won 13-9 overnight and is into the semis. He will face a third consecutive Chinese opponent.

[AndyP]

Ronnie is at 4-4 in his semi and needs to fire the **** up.

Im is back at T39 through one round.

[BobsYourUncle]

Im is back at T39 through one round.

1 birdie puts him at T19. Plenty of time left. Hopefully.

Ronnie did not fire up and got flogged 17-7. **** that guy.

Lefty you can have a bet now. How about the snooker final?

Ronnie ended up on a good side of the draw here.

He’s been talking his game down for a while, but I thought there was some hope.

Sounds like he has some version of the snooker yips.

Bogies on the back 9 killed Sungjae's chances unfortunately

[AndyP]

HOPHEAD's turn to win some cash. I'm away for the weekend, so if a winning bet is placed, hopefully I catch it.

[HOPHEAD]

I was away for the weekend as well, so will have a look during the week

Lefty you can have a bet now. How about the snooker final?

I had a lovely return betting on both my NRL and AFL teams to lose this weekend. Typical.
