00:00Let's go with the early leans on the early lines to make some money here.

00:03Richard Hoey, I see here at least at FanDuel at a 19-1 price here to win it.

00:06You're getting some good options, Keith.

00:08Who are your options this week?

00:10I don't like Ricky Hoey as the favorite, and I'll tell you why.

00:14He can't gain with the putter.

00:15You know, the guy's a brilliant ball striker, but you've got to be able to putt this week.

00:18I just brought it up.

00:19So I'm going to go down a little bit further,

00:21and some of the odds boards this morning, like DraftKings,

00:24had Nico Echevarria up at plus 3,000.

00:26He's coming off a 9th, a 14th there in Mexico, and then you know what?

00:31He is a great Bermuda grass putter, a great wedge player, and he's trending.

00:35The second guy, Sammy Valamaki, who I like to call Sammy Valamaki making us money.

00:40Right, Joe?

00:41I mean, this guy, he's sitting right at plus 5,000 this morning, middle of the board.

00:45You talk about these long shots.

00:46You've got to remember, if you go after a guy that's 100-1 this week,

00:49he's normally 300-1 in a normal field.

00:51So these guys at 50, 60, 40,

00:54these are the guys that are usually right around triple digits.

00:56But due to the strength of the field, I love Sammy Valamaki.

00:59He was runner-up last week to Ben Griffin, lost by a couple strokes.

01:03But the guy made 30 birdies.

01:04He's a great approach player, and he's great with long par threes,

01:07which is one of the very good keys for this week out there in Bermuda.
