Another losing week on the golf, and I think it’s time to admit that this year so far has been deeply disappointing. Weekly Golf Value, despite drawing a blank this week just gone, is the honourable exception and is going along extremely well at 35.13% ROI. No complaints there.
But this week was another poor week for The Rainmaker, and I’m afraid I’ve done my bank. Rather typically, I used one of the books offering only five places on the rebel LIV Golf Invitational event, at greater odds to those being offered by one particular bookmaker who was paying down to 7th. Where did Kokrak finish? Yep, 7th!
I’m pretty sure that despite the performance so far this year, The Rainmaker is a tipster who knows what he is doing. But one rule I made for myself years ago – in the midst of a somewhat existential debate about when you should stop following a service or continue with it – was that if I reach a drawdown point equal to the size betting bank assigned to it, I’d stop. Backing Kokrak to finish top 5 instead of top 7 essentially did for me.
I always have a feeling of sadness when this happens, which thankfully is not that often at all. But it is what it is, and there’s no point in dwelling.
