These odds are retarded, anyone who places a bet is mental. No offence to John J or Danny(the top two picks) but in a field of 370 people,including the top tournament plrs in the world, you would need to get 100-1 on anyone to make it worth while.

I noticed that the odds seemed a bit low for the number of players in the field. So, I converted each person's odds to a decimal (e.g. 80 to 1 = 1/81) and added them together. For the individuals, you get 1.016. Then of course you have the field, which is listed at an absurd 1 to 5, which would be 5/6 or 0.833. Add these together and you get 1.849. Obviously this number should be higher than 1.000, since there is a house edge, but this number is ridiculous.
