Golf Betting Lines

03/07/2010 - Brunei (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Boonchu Ruangkit defeated Frankie Minoza in a playoff Sunday to claim the Aberdeen Brunei Senior Masters.

Ruangkit and Minoza closed with five-under 66s to finish at 14-under-par 199.

Ruangkit won with a par on the second extra hole after both players parred the first playoff hole.

"I was very nervous for the playoff, and it didn't help that the wind started to blow a little," said Ruangkit, who lost a playoff last year at the Brunei Open on the Asian Tour. "But I managed to control my nerves, and I'm just so happy to have won, although I feel a little sorry for Frankie, because he played very well today. I didn't think I could beat him, to be honest."

Chris Williams carded a three-under 68 to end alone in third at 11-under-par 202. Roger Chapman was two strokes back at minus-nine after a final-round 66.

Ruangkit flew out of the gate with a birdie on the first and an eagle on the second to move two clear of Minoza, who birdied the second, then fell three back with a bogey on the third.

Both players birdied the par-four fifth, then Minoza got back within one of the lead with birdies on eight and nine. Ruangkit briefly moved two ahead with a birdie on the 11th.

Minoza forged a tie at 14-under with birdies on 12 and 13. He dropped a shot on 14, then Ruangkit looked as though he sealed the win with a birdie on the 17th.

However, Ruangkit stumbled to a bogey on the par-four 18th, while Minoza converted a birdie try to force the extra session.

Ruangkit eventually pulled out the victory, his first on the European Senior Tour.

Sam Torrance had a 65 on Sunday and shared fifth place with Jerry Bruner, who shot a final-round 70. The pair finished at seven-under 206.

Pro Football Odds : NFC SOUTH BETTING ODDS

NFL Sports Betting

NFL betting action is back! At MySportsbook, all of the pro football odds are posted for the NFC North. Check out how we see the four teams in this cloudy division stacking up this year in the chase for the playoffs! Green Bay Packers (+125) - With QB Aaron Rodgers leading the offense and DC Dom Capers working his magic on defense, the Packers are a real force to be reckoned with.

Virtually nothing changed on this offense for Green Bay from last year to this year, save for the addition of rookie OT Brian Bulaga to the bunch. Expect more huge numbers from the Pack, and a relatively favorable schedule should get them over the hump and into the playoffs once again this season. My NFL Betting Predictions: 11-5, 1st place in NFC North Minnesota Vikings (+130) - There are still too many unknowns about the Vikes this year. There is a huge difference between QB Brett Favre and either Tarvaris Jackson or Sage Rosenfels under center. Plus, is Favre comes back, is he really going to be able to keep his pick total under double digits again? Depth at running back looked like it might have been an issue with RB Chester Taylor fleeing in free agency, but drafting RB Toby Gerhart should pick up the difference. This defense is still suitable, but with a first place schedule, making the playoffs is going to be very tough regardless of whether #4 comes back or not.

Chicago Bears (+350) - The Bears are probably a bit of an overhyped team once again this year.No, we don't think it is plausible for QB Jay Cutler to have as bad of a season as he did last year, and we do think the additions of RB Chester Taylor and DE Julius Peppers are going to help immensely, but there's still something in the water in the Windy City that we aren't so sure about. Maybe Chicago finds its way to .500... but then again, maybe it doesn't. If Favre comes back, Cutler might be the worst quarterback in this division this year.

Detroit Lions (+1500) - The Lions are probably once again going to be the whipping boys for the rest of the teams in the NFC North, but they aren't just going to roll over and die once again. There is some real talent amassing on this team offensively, as the combination of QB Matt Stafford, RB Jahvid Best, WR Calvin Johnson, and TE Brandon Pettigrew should put a bunch of points on the board if the offensive line can even remotely hold up. The questions really lie on defense, where it feels like DT Ndamukong Suh is going to be trying to stop opposing teams all by himself. This year should show some marked improvement in the Motor City.

The Patriots will make NFL betting fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash.
