Dawson moves in front at Q School

Golf Betting Lines

12/04/2011 - LaQuinta, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Marco Dawson posted a four-under 68 on Sunday to move atop the leaderboard after the fifth round of PGA Tour Q School.

Dawson finished 90 holes at 17-under 343 and is three shots ahead with just one round to go in one of the most pressure-packed marathon events in professional golf.

The top 25 and ties after Monday's final round will earn PGA Tour cards for 2012. Everyone else will get some type of status on the Nationwide Tour, but that top 25 is the magic number for this massive field.

Stephen Gangluff shot a five-under 67 and is second at minus-14.

Harris English (70) and Brendon Todd (68) share third place at 13-under 347.

Will Claxton led throughout most of the first four rounds, but struggled in the fifth one. He only managed a four-over 76 and fell into a tie for fifth with former Ryder Cupper Vaughn Taylor (70), Brian Harman (68) and Jarrod Lyle (68). The group finished at minus-11.

Play rotated between the Nicklaus Tournament Course and TPC Stadium Course at PGA West throughout the six rounds. The leaders played the Stadium Course in round five and the Nicklaus Tournament Course in round six on Monday.

Dawson played great early in Sunday's fifth round. He birdied three of his first six holes to move atop the leaderboard. After seven pars around the turn, Dawson rattled off back-to-back birdies at 14 and 15.

He was at 18-under par, but a bogey at the last dropped him to 17-under par.

Dawson played the PGA Tour in years past, but he spent most of the 2011 season on the Nationwide Tour. He had three top 10s on that circuit, including a runner-up, but he made the cut in all three starts on the PGA Tour.

There are four former major champions in the field this week and none are inside the top 25.

The closest is two-time U.S. Open winner Lee Janzen, whose one-under 71 on Sunday moved him into a tie for 42nd at minus-four.

Former British Open champion and world No. 1 David Duval had a four-under 68 in round five, but he's tied for 63rd at two-under par.

Rich Beem and Shaun Micheel, both former PGA Champions, are well down the leaderboard with almost no chance of reaching the top 25 in Monday's final round.

Will Ohio State continue to run the table in College Football betting odds?
MySportsbook.com favors Buckeyes, Fighting Irish and Golden Bears in this weekend's big games.

NEW YORK, NY, Sept. 21 - My Sportsbook NCAA football fans: things are beginning to get really interesting on college football's national stage. Following last weekend's "Separation Saturday", which included five teams ranked in the top 15 dropping games, the BCS Championship picture is beginning to take shape - with Ohio State leading the charge. And, according to odds makers at MySportsbook.com, the number-one-ranked Buckeyes will continue their winning ways this weekend.

Revenge will be the name of the game in Columbus this Saturday, as Ohio State looks to even the score following last season's loss to Joe Paterno's Nittany Lions. Although Penn State are listed as 16.5 point underdogs, they are 11-10 all-time versus the Buckeyes. Paterno and the Lions, however, will have to shut down Heisman Trophy favorite Troy Smith who has thrown for 769 yards and seven touchdowns this season.

Speaking of revenge, Notre Dame will be out for some against Michigan State, following last year's 44 - 41 overtime loss to the Spartans in South Bend. The thirteenth-ranked Irish, listed as a 3-point favorite, will also be looking to avenge last Saturday's thrashing from the Michigan Wolverines. The Spartans, meanwhile, have won seven of the last nine match-ups against Notre Dame and are coming off an impressive 38-23 victory over Pittsburgh.

Out west, 22nd-ranked Arizona State will be battling for their first victory over 21st-ranked California since 2000. Although the Golden Bears are listed as 7.5-point favorites, the Sun Devils are 3-0, lead the nation in sacks with 18 and possess the Pac-10's leading passer in sophomore quarterback Rudy Carpenter.

MySportsbook.com refunds all bets on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay from NFL week one.

(September 14) – Week one of NFL action saw three teams go scoreless for the first time since 1977.  Another four were unable to get a touchdown and almost half of the underdogs covered the spread. Those three teams saved bettors at MySportsbook.com from losing out completely, thanks to the company’s unique NFL Shutout Rule -- which ensures that if the team you backed goes scoreless, your wager is refunded.

Sportsbook refunded tens of thousands of dollars to customers who bet on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay, the three teams that stunk up the field so badly that their fans and backers never had a chance to get up from their couches and cheer.  In the spirit of the low scoring start to the season, odds makers at the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino have set odds on how many total shutouts there will be this season. 

MySportsbook.com has posted updated sports betting lines for week two of the season.  Ben Roethlisberger’s health status is still questionable, so Willie Parker will try to lead Pittsburgh again as they travel to Jacksonville as a one point favorite.  After beating up on his little brother last week, Peyton Manning will look to lead the Colts to victory against Houston. Indianapolis is a whopping 13.5 favorite in the match-up.

Seattle, last year’s highest scoring team, showed the power of their defense with their gritty 9-6 win in Motown over the ravenous Lions.  They take their act back home to the comforts of Qwest Field where they will face the resurgent Arizona Cardinals.  The Seahawks are favored by a touchdown.
