Smart pick.  If nobody else picks Stricker, @Club Rat wins no matter the score (if Stricker wins).

I'm sure Club Rat is glad you announced that to everyone...

He's trying to "pay it forward" because that's what happened to him with his third pick.  He and @boogielicious each chose Hideki Matsuyama at E and -1, I think, and then just to be funny, some jerk came along and picked Hideki with his second pick at 32 under par. :-P (That pick has also since been nullified, but it sure was funny at the time.  Right guys??)

I fail to see any humor in it at all.  I do not know where you are coming from.

Can we as early pickers change our picks as these guys come in at the last minute and poach the number 2 and 3?

No. Says it in the OP.

The advantage to going early is that you can stake your claim. Plus, again, we've never had to go to anyone's second pick yet.

It's a strategy thing.  Do you want to go first and have all the favorites at any score of your choosing?  Or do you want to risk it and wait so you can have a better chance at getting 2nd and 3rd picks that will play?

You can't have both though.

Thanks, that makes sense.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By DaHolla ·

      Day 138 - Hit some balls at lunch in a bay with a Foresight monitor. Good to get the feedback hitting real balls instead of my usual foam balls, although it was a pretty frustrating session. My ball striking, as it has been on the course, was awful. I’d follow a great shot with a bad mishit. A lot of work to do.
