Tiger vs the field in the Masters

Tiger is basically even money to win the masters, meaning if you bet $10 you will win $10 more.  So if Tiger is even money that means if I bet the rest of the field I should get even money also…No sportsbook in their right mind would give me the field at even money.  Odds makers are too smart to know that the Tiger woods bet IS the sucker bet.  I am too smart to bet on golf in the first place because there are always too many golfers with a good chance of winning on any given sunday.   If anyone out there wants to bet on tiger and I get everyone else let me know….sucker

actually the odds on Tiger are 6/5 which is not even money....

Many casinos now offer pay off at odds of 6-5 rather than the traditional 3-2...
so its $6 for a $5 bet rather than $7.50 for a $5 bet.

so in essence you bet 5.00 and you get back 6.00 that's a `1.00 win.....
does that make more sense.....
