2011 Shell Houston Open

[Nicky Santoro]

Also known as the Master's tune up. Actually a good tourney to watch to see who's going to be the one to beat although nothing meets the pressure of the Master's. I'm going to have my outright favorites and give lists why I like them. Dark horse right now this week, I really like Goose.

Goosen +105 over Stricker...................1 unit.

Mahan -105 over Kuchar.......................1 unit.

Harrington -110 over Els.......................1 unit.

Bads -140 over Oosthuizen....................1 unit.

Unfortunately there is no line on Villegas.

GL on your plays.

Round 3 plays:

Mickelson +105 over Stricker..........1 unit.

Kim -110 over Harrington...............1 unit.

Molinari -105 over Westwood...........1 unit.

Verplank -120 over Rollins.............1 unit.

Look for Rollins to choke, especially the final round. Guys like him (Villegas, Kirk, Crane, etc.) catch handle the pressure. They may win head-to-head but are never worth a long shot SU winner. GL today:thumbs:

Final round plays:

Mickelson looking strong, should be the favorite regardless of out come today for next week, the unknown or the one and done tourney winners continue to choke in the third round. Stay away from them if there completely out of it heading into the 4th as they have the pressure off. They may play well.

Fisher -135 over Davis...................1 unit.

Harrington +120 over Kuchar..........1 unit.

Lefty -125 over Kim......................1 unit.

Verplank -140 over Kirk.................1 unit.

GL today, see you for the Big one next week:beerbang:
