How Golf Master Works
Golf Master can accurately work out how likely a golfer is to finish a tournament in an extra place and calculate an expected value (EV) based on this information.
Like Extra Place Master, Golf Master uses an advanced proprietary algorithm to analyse every golfer in a tournament against all other participants. This allows the tool to very accurately assess the likelihood that a particular golfer will finish the tournament in an extra place. This information is then used to calculate an approximate, but very accurate, EV for an each way bet placed on each golfer.
The Golf Master then lists the golfers in a selected tournament from highest to lowest EV, clearly showing the most profitable bets in the long run, so you can decide whether or not a bet is worthwhile.
Just like with Extra Place Master, the Golf Master shows the actual value of your bets. Unlike other software, it factors in the composition of each individual golf tournament by taking into account every player's odds relative to those of all the other players.
When to Use the Golf Master
The Golf Master is designed for use from Monday to Thursday, before a tournament begins. This is when liquidity starts entering the market, and odds are often at their most generous. You can place bets at any time of day — morning, afternoon, or evening — but all bets should be made before the tournament starts. There is no in-play functionality at this time.
Using the Golf Master
The Golf Master is for No Lay betting only.
WARNING: No Lay betting is for advanced value bettors only. You will either need a large bankroll due to the big swings in profit/loss or ensure you use small stakes.
Always make sure to check that the bookmaker is still paying the number of places shown by the software.
Placing Your Bets
Start Small – Golf value betting is high variance, so we recommend starting at £2 - £3 each way and adjusting your stakes as you gain confidence and build profit over the long run.
Use Multiple Bookies – The Golf Master supports 70 bookmakers, giving you huge flexibility to spread your bets, allowing you to cover a large range of golfers, which reduces your overall variance.
Limit per Bookie – For account health, try to limit to 5 - 6 golfers per bookmaker. However, as mentioned above, backing more golfers overall (across multiple bookies) helps reduce variance.
Check your Bookie Bets - Some bookies offer different places for the same golf event. For example, a bookie might offer a market with 8 places and a market with 10 places, so it is important to check that you’re always getting the correct place market that matches up with the Golf Master software.
Refresh Often – The tool updates automatically, but you can also refresh manually to check the latest EV stats.
To help with variance a little bit to for Golf, as it can be a little swingy (excuse the pun) use the following EVs:-
Ev 110% for odds up to 100
Ev 115% 101 to 200 and
Ev 120% odds over 200Tied Places
You will find that some places will be shared and in turn, reduce the payout.
So, if we back on the 8 place markets and have 2 golfers tied for 8th place, for example, this would mean that the 8th place would be shared by these 2 golfers. This would result in the odds on the place needing to be divided by 2 also. So if had odds of 100/1on the win Each Way, the place odds would be 20/1 normally (1/5th the win odds) these would be reduced to 10/1 as we have multiple finishes in the last place paid out. There is a dead heat button that we can use to save having to manually work this out on the My Bets section.
