Thomas and Liu in finals of U.S. Junior

Golf Betting Lines

07/23/2010 - Ada, MI (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Justin Thomas and Jim Liu both won twice on Friday to advance to Saturday's 36-hole final of the U.S. Junior Amateur Championship.

Thomas, 17, earned a 2 & 1 victory over Scott Wolfes in Friday's quarterfinals, then needed one extra hole to get by Denny McCarthy in the afternoon's semifinals.

Liu pulled out a 1-up win over Gavin Hill Friday morning and toppled Robby Shelton, 3 & 2 in the semifinals.

Thomas fell 1-down to Wolfes with a loss at the fourth hole, but rebounded with wins at six and seven. Thomas' lead stayed at 1-up until he won the par- five 13th with an eagle.

Wolfes hung in and won the 15th with a birdie to go 1-down. He made bogey at the par-five 17th at Egypt Valley Country and that was enough to give Thomas a 2 & 1 victory.

Later Friday, Thomas never led over McCarthy until the first extra hole. He was 1-down after a bogey at nine and the score stayed at 1-down until Thomas won 15 with a par.

The match was all-square briefly. McCarthy took the par-three 16th with a par, but a Thomas par at 17 drew him even. The pair halved the 18th with birdie and were back to the first to find out who made the final.

Thomas only needed a par at No. 1 for the win and berth in Saturday's final.

Liu, 14, was ahead early in his quarterfinal, but losses at seven and 10 left his match against Hall all-square. Hall moved 1-up thanks to a par at the 14th, but Liu clawed back to even with a birdie at 16.

Liu made a birdie at the 17th to go 1-up and hung on with a par at the last to move on to the semifinals.

Against Shelton, Liu was 1-down after seven holes, but got to all-square after a birdie at the par-three eighth. Shelton captured the 10th and 11th holes to move 2-up on the back nine.

Liu never panicked and won 12 with a par and 13 with a birdie. Those two victories gave Liu some momentum. He won the next three holes with two birdies and a par to close out the match with five straight winning holes.

Stanley Cup betting

New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.

The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.

MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.

Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.
