I'm excited about getting on this tomorow. I hope I have more luck with this than the world cup, me and my bro have lost pretty much every bet so far, and been watching most of the games as well.

Williams sisters at -130 and Fed at +140 seem like decent bets...although injuries and matchups could make it a suckers bet

How on earth is Sharapova a 9/1 shot coming into this

Very easy fade imo.

Hi everyone,

I think too Serena and Venus are excellent choices. High play for me, hedged with Henin.
On the men's side i took Hewitt (+5500 small), Roddick (+2000 medium) and Murray (+1000 small). I don't like Fed's or Nadal's form; one of them will probably win it, but some nice hedges could present themselves in the later stages in live betting.

Nadal is comitting an unusual number of unforced errors, and Fed is showing his age. Playing 5 sets on monday might affect him later on.

I do.
It's very tricky. You need to bet the right players, those known to suffer big lapses (Henin, Safina,....) and bet their oponnent when they are behind and hope the choke comes.

like Tsonga -5.5 games in the match today....Kamke has rarely been on a stage this big and winning several matches at Wimbledon is about as far as he's gonna go.

Nadal's @5.4, he's been poor but just at such a large price. would expect him to beat mathieu in round 4, then can lay against him when he fall down to 4-4.5ish....
thoughts????

I think Soderling stops his run eventually; i also would be concerned by the state of his knee after so many sets.

Remember how he was forced to quit in Australia vs Murray.

Murray also looks good @7, he hasn't dropped a set yeat. whereas Nadal and federer have both been invloved in two 5 seters(i think) already....

Except Murray has no clue how to win when it comes to winning late in tournaments.
