    Your Theory Sucks.

    This started out -136 for the Williams' sisters. The odds now favor their opponents.

    Makarova and Vesnina have 2 Grand Slam doubles titles and 6 runners-up so they are no slouches.

    Makarova E/Vesnina E -112 over Williams S/Willams V

    Yes, I'm afraid you're right. So now put on a set of balls and make some picks so I can criticize your theories too.

    Edit: I just took a look at your posts to see if you may have made some picks already. Nope. It seems you are a ghost account just set up to criticize people. You are truly a coward.

    I would suggest to anyone to click on this clown's posts to see what I'm talking about.

    I just went over the matches where I bet Serena only. Two of the spreads against her won on the game spread (I took the spread on the sets which lost). She then won by 1/2 point against Kerber in her most recent match.

    So if I play my spots on the game spread only I may have a better time.

    I don't think the strategy is one you could hit repeatedly, because bookmakers set their odds in such a way that you can't make money that way.

    I think it should be applied on a case by case basis... i.e. when you get a +6.5 at even money, take it. A -4.5 though - the value was on Serena, not her opponent.

    Its very simple. Serena CARES spread semis, final and takes every point seriously. Early rounds she doesnt care
    About game. Actually serve saved Serena. Longer rallies Serena cant fight anymore
    I hope to get in the future juisy lines for laying Serena. Slow hardcourt or clay could cause her much trouble

    Yeah, I didn't take every match. I applied it on a case by case basis. It went 2-2 in matches I took if I were to take the game spread instead of the series spread on that one match. It could have gone 3-1 but missed by 1/2 game in the final.

    I think I'll continue this in her next major.

    Looks like I failed to fade Serena in her doubles match with Venus where they lost in the Olympics.
