    Golf 3 ball betting
    3 Ball In Case of a Tie, Winner of 3 Balls will be determined by Player with most Birdies

    That's the rules at the greek, is that standard LV rules? Do they do 3 ball betting in the US?

    I would have thought this is very unfair - eg both shoot 2 under, 1 has 2 birdies, one has one eagle - or even one has 8 birdies 6 bogeys, one has 4 birdies - seems to me in both those situations the "wrong" player is awarded the win.

          very strange way to settle a tie,normally if 2 players tie then you would get half your stake to full odds,if all 3 tie then you get a third of your stake to full odds.

            It is a strange rule but if you know it, you just keep it in mind when handicapping your picks.

            As for 3 ball betting in the US, I haven't seen it (assuming you are speaking of brick and mortar sports books). I've only seen matchups and odds to win, but it's been awhile since I've been to LV.
