    is Serena Williams @ -515 a lock today??????

    Early exit in the Olympics, she should be a force to be reckoned with today, right?

    Or should I steer clear?

    Any info greatly appreciated.

    First off, there is no such thing as a lock, and secondly, betting that kind of juice you might as well call your book and tell them to just keep your money. They will have it soon enough anyways

    Yeah but this is purely a situational bet. Embarrassing early exit from the olympics. No way she loses early in the us open as well.

    She wants to show everyone it was a fluke and you just know she's going to be at the top of her game tonight. Might have to take the chance here......

    She should be at the top of her game tonight and has something to prove.
    Guy, you asked, I am just telling you, even if she will win 99.9999% of the time betting that juice it's a loser. You get more out of it by not playing. Betting massive ml will never be worth it because you have to wager way too much for zero return and if she loses then you just wagered most of your bankroll, all because You thought she can't lose. Too me it's fukin stupid, just my 2 cents. GL to you if you pull the trigger.

    Yes, I know and I very rarely bet lines this steep. The last time was 4 years ago I believe. I know nothing is a lock when it comes to sports, but this seems like a really good spot to take a chance.

    Thanks for your insight by the way.

    This is 100% wrong. if you believe she's 90% to win then -515 is superb value. Value does exist on chalk, albeit not nearly as often as on dogs.

    I believe there is GREAT value in tonight's serena. Early exit from olympics, wants to shut up all of the critics, her sister just won her match, she should come out motivated and on her game.

    Got it at an even 500 at bookmaker by the way!

    I can see Serena going the way and weight of Aretha Franklin 7 years after retirement

    Thx man! Like I said, it's extremely rare that I bet a line like this. It's been years, but the line should have been set around -1000 to -1200.

    -500 was too good to pass up after an epic early collapse in the olympics.
