Ellis and Smith lead Mexican PGA

Golf Betting Lines

04/25/2009 - Mazatlan, Mexico (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Defending champion John Ellis and Eugene Smith are knotted atop the leaderboard after Saturday's third round of the Corona Mexican PGA Championship.

Ellis and Smith both posted rounds of five-under 67 to finish 54 holes at 10- under 206 at El Cid Golf & Country Club.

Andy Matthews and Stephen Dartnall also both shot 67s on Saturday and are tied for third at minus-nine.

Mauricio Molina (66), Wes Heffernan (67), Javier Quevedo (70) and Adam Speirs (71) are knotted in fifth at eight-under 208.

Ellis did most of his damage around the turn. He parred his first six holes, then rattled off four consecutive birdies starting at the par-five seventh hole.

His last birdie came at the par-four 15th and that put Ellis in the lead. He parred out to share first place.

Smith was even on his round after 11 holes, thanks to two birdies and two bogeys. He caught fire from the 12th with four consecutive birdies, including a chip-in at 13 and three putts inside 10 feet.

He scrambled for pars at both 16 and 17, then closed with a birdie to join the defending champion in first.

"I held it steady on the front nine and was one-under, but then bogeyed the 10th before I went on my run," said Smith, who is winless on the Canadian Tour.

Robert Gates (70), J.J. Rodriguez (70) and Scott Hawley (72) share ninth at minus-seven.

Second-round leader Andrew Parr struggled to a three-over 75 and fell into a share of 14th at five-under 211.

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.
