Happy Wednesday betting friends. We’ve hit March, which means no more football, but tons of basketball on the NBA and college courts, NFL golf, and coming soon, baseball!
While we give out one of our golf plays for free tonight in the newsletter, our full Arnold Palmer card, NBA props/side, College Basketball and NHL plays are all worth an upgrade at the current $99/year plan as you don’t want to miss weekly NFL and CFB week picks this fall. One $99 price (or $9.99/month) will get you every single newsletter unlocked, all our trends and picks and access to me of course.
Also make sure you listen to the weekly Betting with Bearman podcast. Last week, we had VSiN’s Zach Cohen on to break down the NBA and his thoughts on the NBA’s second half. This week, FanDuel Betting analyst Minty Bets, who also makes appearances on FDSN with me, will join the show to break down UFC 326.
I am also going to help you in your golf pools with One and Done picks AND access to some awesome golf tools that you can use to help with your pool. Head over to PoolGenius and get Discounts courtesy of Betting with Bearman. We have one of the best non-Majors of the year this week in the Arnold Palmer Invitational.
We are excited about our affiliate deal with our new friends at Betr. Through our partnership, you can sign up now and get $10 free and then a 50% deposit match up to $200 by using the Betting with Bearman sign up link, right here. We are also going to be sending out Betr plays every newsletter!

PGA Tour In Action at the Arnold Palmer Invitational
After a week at the Cognizant Classic in the Palm Beaches, the Tour moves up the road for a Signature Event at Arnold Palmer's Bay Hill Country Club that serves as a tune up for the upcoming Players Championship and run of four majors. It's built like a majors course and is often compared to a U.S. Open. You can't miss fairways as the rough is penal, it's long and you need to be good with irons from far out, there's water hazards on nine holes, and with Florida, you might get some winds as we saw last week.
All in all, it's a true test of golf from tee-to-green, where we will be looking for the cream to rise to the crop with accurate driving, strong iron games, ability to scramble and beat a 72-golfer field that features 38 of the top 40-ranked players in the world.
Arnold Palmer Invitational Card
Matt Fitzpatrick to win (+2500), top-20 finish (-136)
A little bit further down the board, I think there is value on Matt Fitzpatrick, the 2022 U.S. Open winner.
Outside of some trouble on the Poa greens out west, he's been great, with three straight top-25 finishes, including a 9th-place finish in Phoenix. He also finished last year with four top-10s in his last six events, which included the Open and Scottish Opens.
He leads the Tour in ball striking, 5th in Tee-to-Green, and 12th in Par 5 scoring, one of the metrics we are using this week.
Fitzy has been great here, runner-up in 2019 as part of four straight top-10s. Overall, he's finished in the top 15 six times and 22nd last year.
No doubt he had issues on greens out west, but not here in Florida, where he has gained strokes putting in every appearance at Bay Hill.
Stick around for the rest of the Arnold Palmer Invitational Card, our NBA action, an NHL first period play, and our favorite CBB plays (more than one) of the night.
