MS, when you bet on golf and you refer to a place as still paying out, up to what place pays out for you?

Mostly eight places on this event.

Speith pulls out a massive putt.

Leishman with a chance of birdie on the 18th, huge put coming up!!

Missed it, so now 2 are in on -15. Speith still out on 17 at -15 and Oostheuizen and Day one back on -14.

Spieth drops a shot on 17, to go back to -14, needs a birdie on 18 now to tie the lead. Day holds his put and he too needs a birdie.

Looks like its heading for a playoff, just a matter now of whether its just 2 guys or possibly 5!!

Clutch put by Oostuizen on 17, needs a birdie on 18 now.

Spieth pars the 18th and finishes on -14, so the chance to do the Grand Slam has gone!! Day too misses his putt. Left it short which was a bad mistake at this stage. Down to 3 possibles for the playoff.

Oosthuizen gets his birdie, so its a playoff between Zach Johnson, Mark Leishman and Louis Oosthuizen. Having won the open here at St Andrews before you have to fancy Oosthuizen.

Got back what I put on, would have been in profit if Oosthuizen had won the playoff.
Nothing great will ever be achieved without great men, and men are great only if they are determined to be so. For glory gives herself only to those who have always dreamed of her.

Got place bets on Oosterhuizen, Speith & Willett so made a small profit.

Broke Even as I went for really small on Fleetwood (80s) Pretty small on Lowry (45's) quite big on Oosthoizen (22's) and Biggest on Rose (20's)

Rose and the Oost place so a made a tiny amount, pretty much even though, if Louis would of won (can't believe he missed that one on 17 and then again on 18!!) would of had healthy profit, nevermind, a great competition!

Off on holiday so had to place a few bets today. Will have to update after the first round of fixtures when I return when we will know better the squads that clubs will have.

Championship:

Huddersfield to be Relegated 4/1
Blackburn to be relegated 8/1
Top Half - Sheff Wed 4/5
Bottom Half - Blackburn 5/6
Bottom Half - QPR 11/8
Top North West Side - Burnley 6/5

League One:

Barnsley to Win (e/w) 20/1
Bury to Win (e/w) 35/1
Southend to be Relegated 4/1
Port Vale to be Relegated 13/8
Top Half - Bury 10/11
Top Half - Shrewsbury 5/6
Bottom Half Chesterfield 10/11
Bottom Half - Walsall 8/11

League Two:

Portsmouth to Win (e/w) 4/1

I have done Top Six/Seven multiples although I have to say I am not as confident this season as previous season.

Top Six - Hull City Evens
Top Six - Middlesbrough 4/6
Top Six Swindon 2/1
Top Six - Barnsley 2/1
Top Seven - Orient 11/8
Top Seven - Northampton 13/8

Twenty Bets of combinations of doubles & trebles. Could include Portsmouth & Sheff Utd if you prefer less risk.

Good Luck!
