    You just ignore it. I don't understand why people get so upset over aftertiming. I just laugh at it.

    I'd like to suggest that the mods introduce an aftertiming rule to this thread. It's extremely annoying and I guarantee that regardless of who wins tomorrow there'll be a load of lads coming on here afterwards saying they backed him.

    Just my 2c

    First time posting in this thread but you're spot on. I follow this thread but haven't posted before.

    It's general betting etiquette, brag all you want about your winner as long as you lay your cards on the table first. We can all pick a winner after the race is run.

    If you are going to aftertime then you’re going to have to post a screenshot of your bet or it’s a warning.

    Personally i don't think Rory will do anything, i actually think he'll miss the cut.
    I backed Jason day , Brooks koepka and eddie pepperell each way, and the king tiger to win.
    Good luck all, i love the Masters

    3 out of 4 !

    A local bookie was telling my dad the other day they took a rake of bets on a 'Tiger double' in the Grand National and Masters. Gonna get badly burned:p

    I'll be backing him in all the other majors this year. I'd expect 5/1 will be the best price now.

    Bit of a bill for WillHills ops over there ($1,275,000).

    Realistically, they probably took that into their pockets, from other folks backing another fav (Rory), or even Molinari.

    Plumped for Xander at 35s and Cantley at 55s.

    Both small e/w bets.

    Bring the noise

    Done with PP, I assume Cantley got in the places?

    He was T9 so I assume you're safe, unless I'm mistaken he would've had to be T10 to dilute your winnings

    Also congrats

    I think they were diluted. I certainly didn't get the full whack for rahm and fowler.

    Yeah it was with PP who were paying out 10 places. I would have thought I would have gotten the full amount too. Apparently not though.

    As far as I remember you should get back 2/3rds of what you would on a full place.

    As there were 3 golfers in the 2 techinaclly 9/10 place spots

    some bookies pay full but they are generally the smaller ones

    That's absolute BS. They were T9 hence you should've got the full amount :(

    Yeah, just checked the dead heat rules on the bookies website and that looks to be the case. Ah well, not the end of the world.

    We don't condone aftertiming around these parts! In future, can you please post a pic of the bet if you want to ask a question after the event has finished. Thanking you.

    He finished T5, so you'll collect.

    Dead heat rules will apply as there was 4 people tied 5th (positions 5,6,7,8) so you'll only get a fraction of what you would have if he had finished 5th on his own.

    I had considered doing B Langer @ 11/10 for top German but glad I didn't in the end - he shot 80 on Sunday to finish 4 behind Kaymer.

    Harding as top debutant was one that I'm sure a few had a punt on, presume the odds on that were decent.

    That’s ridiculous. He was backed to finish e/w top 10 which he did. It would be different if he tied 5th with 10 people.

    Edit - sorry just noticed he back him top 5
