    If you put $100 on Scott Verplank or Darren Clarke to win the British Open
    You would win $1,100,000

    Odds at The Greek for both players: +11,000

      I'd consider betting Verplank, he's usually pretty steady and does well in big tournaments. I think Clarke might be a little past his prime though. Never know after getting snubbed by Faldo for the Ryder Cup though

            Darren Clarke actually has solid British Open form and will always give you a run at 100-1

              Well I must be missing something on $100 at 11,000 to 1

                Lots.



                When you bet $1 at +200, do you win $200?

                    did you mean 11,000 to 1 or +11,000? Isn't there a difference between those?

                      I guess $11,000 makes it not worth it since Verplank has no chance

                        It's plus +11,000 not 11,000 to 1
