After Caller Bob misses the cut, I'll take Spieth.

I'll go with the Aussie, Jason Day.

Ranked 3rd in the world but getting a 20-1 odds in this tournament. He's also a former #1, which he held for a year, though has not won the Masters yet.

He's going to win for his mom, who was diagnosed recently with lung cancer. She was told she had only 12 months to live, but now has gotten a better prognosis.

So like how Favre played after his Dad died, these dark times seem to bring out the best in people and athletes.

Matsuyama at 22/1 is an insane value.

It would be if you could actually get him at that number. I'm not sure where DR gets his odds, but I don't see numbers like those anywhere.

I got them from here: http://www.vegasinsider.com/golf/odds/futures/

It didn't work well copying and pasting the odds from Bovada. Day's odds are less there at 18-1.

Vegas insider isn't a betting site. I don't know where they come up with those odds. I have checked several places, and nobody has numbers like those.

That's funny, because CBS (or cbsports.com), who is doing the weekend coverage, cites Vegas insider in their article on the Masters.

I don't think the hosebag did, the hosebag's famous father took care of that.

Neither of those two sites take bets, nor mention where they get their odds. Why do they even bother listing odds?

Bovada does. Just click on the Golf link to see the odds come up. By clicking on one of them, you can place your bet on the right of the screen.

Though the list I posted didn't include him, I think Cabrera at 200-1 is not crazy.

He won the green jacket once in 2009 and finished 2nd in 2013.

If the weather is a factor, I would like him more, like Exaggerator.

As Augusta National wrote about Cabrera in 2014, "The Masters is a safe haven for him as he hasn’t missed a cut at Augusta since 2005 and has six career top 10s. He remains a threat any time he shows up."

He just hit a walk-off ace in the Houston Open Sunday, so he's got to be feeling good.

Bovada does, which makes sense for them to list odds. I can't figure out why CBS and VI list random odds from some unnamed place.

He fell down the staires in his rental home and hurt his back. That's what I get for paying that piece of crap a compliment.

Why do you feel he is a piece of crap? Because he was young and made some mistakes, kind of harsh.

I'll go with Fowler.

Also, it will be Fred Couples who gets the annual "Old-Man-Surprises-And-Gets-Hot-For-Two-Rounds-Makes-The-Front-Page-Of-The-Leaderboard-Only-To-Have-A Mediocre-Third-Round-Before-Crashing-On-Sunday" award.

Anyone else having trouble with Bovada?

Having not used the site for a while, my deposit with a new debit card was rejected. And apparently their customer service numbers aren't working either.

This totally sucks.

Yes, they're having troubling posting deposits tonight and their phones are jammed, but that wasn't my issue.

I did get through to find out mine is a bank restriction. Never happened before.

Unfortunately, one day is not enough time to go the Bitcoin route for deposits.

Just within the span of a few hours, Day's odds dropped to 16-1 from 18-1.
