Spread Trading Solutions

For all golf fans, the US Masters in early April is without doubt one of the highlights of the golfing calendar. For betting fans though, it's also a fantastic betting opportunity and a close study of past and current form is vital if you want to bet profitably on the event. Here are some of the most important tournament form statistics you should consider before betting on the Masters

Financial Spread Trading 1 -- Since 1990, more than 80% of US Masters winners have won or finished 2nd atleast once already that year.

Nfl Betting Spread 2 -- This year, more than ever, Augusta will favour the big hitters. That's because the course has been extended a further 155 yards to 7445 yards with alterations to six holes. Augusta has now been lengthened over 400 yards in the last 5 years. The course plays long so unless there is a lot or rain to negate the big hitters advantage, favour those golfers who rank well for driving distance.

This is where spread betting can be so profitable. For every punter backing him to win, letting the bet run and losing every single time, there are spread punters out there who know that one in every three times they back O'Hern on finishing positions they will bank an average of nearly 20 times their stake, and only lose that amount one in five. You don't need to be a mathematician to see why O'Hern is a popular choice for those who spread bet.

Advanced Commodity Spread 3 -- The other extremely important stat is the Greens-In-Regulation (GIR) percentage. GIR simply measures how often a golfer reaches the green in the regulation number of strokes (or less). For example, on a par 4 hole, Regulation would be to make the green in two strokes. On a par 5, three strokes. To illustrate just how vital this statistic is, only once in the last six years has the Masters winner NOT ranked in the first two for GIR percentage at the tournament's conclusion.

Betting Exchange Spread 4 -- The Masters is a tournament for proven winners. Big name golfers such as Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, and Vijay Singh have tremendous records in this event. Mickelson for instance has finished no worse than 12th in the last 8 years! Unlike the British Open, surprise long odds winners are extremely rare. No golfer playing the Masters for the first time has won the tournament since Fuzzy Zoeller in 1979, so previous Masters form is a must.

Stock Spread Trading Armed with the above pointers, it should be possible to eliminate a large percentage of the 2006 US Masters field as possible winners. The winning golfer is likely to have good previous Masters form, have won or finished second in a tournament atleast once already that year, and rank highly in the driving distance and GIR stats for his respective tour.
