In Hour 2 of Money Moves on VSiN, hosts Stormy Bonantoni and Jonathan Vontobo dive into the upcoming Masters Tournament, analyzing top contenders like Scotty Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, Jon Rahm, and Colin Morikawa amid injury concerns and shifting odds. They explore the importance of course history, true strokes gained data, and strategic betting angles—especially in derivative markets like top 5, top 10, and first-time winner bets. Guest Christopher Powers of Golf Digest joins to share his insights, favoring Bryson DeChambeau due to firm course conditions and his recent form, while cautioning on Morikawa’s health and Ludwig Eberg’s volatility. The show also covers a packed NHL schedule, with key bets on the Anaheim Ducks over Nashville, and MLB picks on the Marlins and Rangers. The hosts highlight under-the-radar plays, data-driven analysis, and the psychological edge of betting against popular favorites. As the regular season winds down, the focus remains on high-leverage matchups and smart, contrarian positioning across sports. Key takeaways include: 1) Use derivative markets (top 5, top 10) to exploit mispriced odds on injury-plagued stars like Morikawa; 2) Favor Bryson DeChambeau at 12-1 due to course conditions and recent form; 3) Bet against heavily favored players like Scheffler if early-round struggles continue; 4) Target teams on back-to-backs or short rest, like Nashville in the NHL; 5) Use underlying metrics (expected ERA, hard-hit rate) to identify value in pitching matchups; 6) Watch for player absences (e.g., LeBron James) to exploit large point spreads; 7) Consider left-handed golfers and strong short games for Masters success; 8) Leverage tools like VSIN Pro and AI-driven models for edge in betting decisions.
Use derivative markets like top 5 and top 10 to find value on injured stars like Colin Morikawa priced at 31-1.
Bryson DeChambeau is a strong play at 12-1 due to firm course conditions and recent form.
Bet against Scotty Scheffler if early-round struggles persist, even if he’s the favorite.
Target teams on back-to-backs or short rest, such as Nashville in the NHL, for betting against them.
Use expected ERA and hard-hit rate to identify overvalued pitchers and find value in MLB betting.

Masters Week Kickoff & Golf Betting Strategy
“Experience just matters in a course like this. This is a tournament that has a long course history. Lots of guys have played a ton of rounds here, and so playing on the course actually matters.”
Scotty Scheffler & Colin Morikawa: Form, Injuries & Value
“He's perfectly fine and given more Kawa and where he's at with the course history, true strokes, all of these sorts of things. He's definitely, if I were to remove the back injury, he'd probably be near the top of the list...”
NHL Playoff Race & Key Betting Angles
“Third game of four nights for them. So maybe that'll bode well from that standpoint. They've lost back-to-back games 4 or 5, 6 of the last 8.”
MLB Betting: Marlins, Rangers & Pitching Metrics
The hosts present two MLB picks: the Marlins against the Reds (fading Andrew Abbott) and the Rangers against the Mariners (buying low on Eovaldi). They emphasize using expected ERA, hard-hit rate, and command metrics to find value in pitching matchups.
Guest Interview: Christopher Powers on Masters Picks
“I've been in the last two years. He's gone T6 and T5. That was after missing the cut in consecutive years. So you never fully figure out Augusta National, but it does seem like he's getting... pretty close to doing that.”
