Re: Analysis of finish distribution
I was just concerned that 5th and 6th are similar to 1st. Seems like that shouldn't be the case with a good player. Which I guess may answer my own question... /images/graemlins/blush.gif

Re: Tiger Woods v Phil Ivey
But minimizing risk means even action. They want the juice. In the long run, they hope to be on the slightly positive side of the bets, but they aren't trying to make their normal book that way......
