   Golf: Live Index

Bet Overview

During the final round of most televised tournaments will offer live prices as the action unfolds. Therefore you have the opportunity to outwit our market makers as each shot is hit. The scoring system awards points as follows: 1st = 25pts, 2nd = 10pts, All others = 5pts.

Example

In the British Open we might quote prices for eight players in contention during the last round (live on TV). Walking off the 15th green, after a birdie to bring him within two shots of the leader, we might quote Vijay Singh at 7 - 9 points. If on the 16th hole his drive went into the water and the prospect of him dropping a shot, looked highly likely, we might quote him at 3 - 6. Having watched this on TV, you might believe that the situation appears worse than it actually is, and in fact that Vijay may be able to record par at the 16th. As a result you might decide to Go High (Buy) at 6, for the stake of your choice, in this case, £10 a point. If he did drop a shot at the 16th but managed to keep his composure and finish second in the tournament, he would have been awarded 10 points in our LIVE Index. As a result you would have made 4 times your stake. (10 - 6) x your stake = 4 x £10 = £40 However, having seen him in the water, you might have decided that he had no chance of finishing in the top two, and decided to Go Low (Sell) at 3. In the scenario above, your judgement would have been incorrect and you would have lost 7 times your stake. (Singh was awarded 10 points for finishing second). (10 - 3) x your stake = 7 x £10 = -£70
