    Default PGA: Zurich Classic predictions

    Tournament matchups
    Bo Van Pelt -116 over Troy Matteson
    Mark Calcavecchia -108 over Bubba Watson
    Stephen Leaney -110 over Anthony Kim

    First Round matchups
    Paul Stankowski +1/2 Even over Bubba Watson
    Daniel Chopra -1/2 -127 over Bob Tway

    3BAll
    Sean O'Hair -115 over Durant/Perks
    Leaney +115 over R Johnson/Warren
    Weekley +145 over Micheel/Hoffman
    (I usually don't play on a player after notching a PGA tour win, but Weekley is playing well and I expect will carry momentum into the first round and then start fading late.)

    Props
    Will Jesper Parnevik make the cut?
    Yes -220

    I don't have time to go into detail and I apologize. This is usually more bets than I like to make on day one, but I see a lot of good value. I have two units on Chopra, the rest are for 1 unit (to win 1 unit).

    Interested to hear if anyone else has any opinions on this tournament...

    Lost two of my 3Ball bets (should have stuck true to my own rule of not betting on a player coming off a win...Weekley stunk up the track), so I am adding one:

    Calcaecchia +115 over Matteson/Elkington

    I really need Matteson to have a bad round and my records indicate him as a major fade in this tournament.

    Good day yesterday
    +3.15 units
    All three tournament picks look good
    Van Pelt leads by 3
    Calcavecchia leads by 6
    Leaney leads by 1

    Barring a huge collapse, Parnevik should make the cut.

    Second Round matchups:
    Wes Short Jr +305 over Toms/Couch (1/2 unit)
    Pretty decent value. Short played well yesterday. I am still not sold on Toms for this tournament.

    Carlos Franco +103 over Stiles (1 unit)
    Richard Johnson -104 over Ted Purdy (2 units)

    Be back with a few more from the second group...

    CJ, yeah 5dimes takes US clients and they have a ton of matchups, just no 3 ball odds.

    5Dimes has a terrific selection of matchups. The main problem I have with them though is the line -- it's a 30 cent line. If you don't mind the juice though it's a good outlet. WSEX doesn't have much juice but they only have a handful of matchups and they take forever to get up. The greek has good odds and a fair amount of matchups.

    .65 today
    Jesper made the cut (barely) +1 unit
    Franco/Stiles - push (freakin' Franco double bogeyed the Par 5 18th or it would have been a win...tough one to take)
    Johnson/Purdy - loss -2.08 units
    Labelle/Ogilvie - push
    Shorty vs Toms/Couch win +1.525
    Leaney vs Kim = loss -1.10

    Two tournament matchups still pending...
    Van Pelt leads by 2
    Calcavecchia leads by 4


    Be back tomorrow with some third round matchups...

    Good luck

    Nice call on Watson, kalmikrazy. I should have quit while I was ahead - 0-4 today (including two ties that should have been pushes...might reconsider playing at the greek just to save on some juice). Two tournament matchups still in play but lost 5 units today. Hope to do some serious studying tonight and get it back tomorrow

    Calcavecchia -1/2 -112 over Maggert
    O'Hair over Stankowski -1/2 over -127

    Good luck...
