I have taken plenty of tips from SBR in the past so it feels good to be be able to give something back:

Alistair Brownlee to win the mens triathlon -140 at Pinnicle

I know Ali personally and also spoke to a key member of his group on Facebook yesterday who confirmed he is in the shape of his life. He is the world number 1 triathlete by a long way (his younger brother is no 2). He won the Olympic test event on the same course in the rain last year. The true odds for him to win should be -200 or lower. I don't like to call anything a stone cold lock but barring a bike crash, a puncture or him getting sick on the morning of the race he should win.

Check out the run splits of some of his recent triathlons, he takes minutes out of guys in the top 5 in the world.

I have about $900 on him and may add more. GL

didnt he just come back from a injury last month ? but he looks good

[grizzlies1]

Yeah he got a micro tear in his achilles earlier in the year. However if anything this has mean't he is peaking at the right time and isn't tired or burnt out from doing a bunch of races earlier in the season. He comfortably won his comeback race a month or so ago in Kitzbuehel beating anyone who's anyone i.e his brother, gomez, the russian fella by over a minute.

Russia vs. GB in gold medal count has plunged
back to -170 from -200 on this report:

(but, the report only discusses Russia's total medal count,
not Golds, and I still like Russia to take more Gold than GB.)

Carmelita Jeter gold 100m +230
Lolo Jones 100m hurdles +3500
Dawn Harper 100m hurdles +850

Andy Murray +685 Murray/Murray doubles
Equestrian indiv. William Fox Pitt +450

[diveoregon]

Romones, or anyone else that follows swimming, I really like Park to NOT win the 400free at -185. Yang has bested him in every recent swim, and Park's personal best is over a second and half off the WR.

[diveoregon]

+3500 and +850 are great odds of they hit. However, Jones and Harper are no match for Sally Pearson in the 100m hurdles.

[k13]

What are some decent locks at -400 to -1000? Besides USA basketball.

[diveoregon]

Any thoughts on Phelps/Lochte in the IM's?

[diveoregon]

Rebecca Soni -350 in the 200m Breast (in my opinion the surest bet out there)
Melissa Franklin -280 in the 200m Back
Michael Phelps -600 in the 200m Fly

James Magnussen -225 is a pretty solid bet in the 100m Free

[diveoregon]

Williams/Williams -125 in Women's doubles tennis, considering they just won there less than a month ago.

Ashton Eaton -300 decathalon
Trey Hardee -380 to NOT win gives you the field as well.

Sally Pearson -220 100m hurdles

Sun does look really strong but here's why I picked Park at +179 rather than him NOT to win at -185

-It's simply much better value. Sun should be slightly favored, but not by this much.
-Olympic experience... Park has been here before and is the defending champ
-Don't put too much stock in best times. All that matters is one race
-Sun was favored to win last year at World's but when they finally raced together Park took him down. Park also won their head-to-head battle at the 2010 Asian Games.
-And like I mentioned before, Park should have a chip on his shoulder for being overlooked as the defending Olympic and World champion

However, there are much better plays on the board rather than the men's 400 free. Might just be a good race to watch.

[ramones951]

Rebecca Soni -350 in the 200m Breast (in my opinion the surest bet out there)
Melissa Franklin -280 in the 200m Back
Michael Phelps -600 in the 200m Fly

James Magnussen -225 is a pretty solid bet in the 100m Free

Really like all those. Except (surprisingly) Phelps at -600 in the 200 fly. Definitely not worth the chalk. The 200 fly is his bread and butter, but actually in recent years he doesn't seem to have the dominant closing speed on that last 50. The field has closed the gap on Phelps in this event considerably. I expect Nick D'Arcy to have a breakout swim... probably around 1:53 low. Matsuda threatening 1:53. It's Phelps' race to lose but there's no way I'm laying -600.

The odds for this and the women's 200 breast should be reversed... Soni should be around -600.

[ramones951]

Bookmaker has it as:
Sun -125
Park +135

That's a little closer to what they should be

[ramones951]

Pretty crazy how different the odds are at different sites. Yannick Agnel to win the 200 free at Pinnacle is still high; at +260 while it's +100 at Bovada.... grab it at Pinnacle if you can

[k13]

No record in 100m sprint, basically a lock. Lot of juice obviously.,

[ramones951]

Great value in one of today's swimming events... Women's 400 IM ... Hannah Miley to win gold +437

5dimes has field to win women's 400 im at +140?

[ramones951]

5dimes has field to win women's 400 im at +140?

I think its gonna come down to Beisel and Miley so if you dont wanna take the favorite take Miley to win in her home country instead of field

Small play though...

[ramones951]

thanks man

what do you think of britta steffen in the women 50m +860 and 100m +665 freestyle ?

She will be in the mix but I like Kromowidjojo to win the sprint freeestyle's

[ramones951]

5dimes has field to win women's 400 im at +140?

Although that is still a good play

[ramones951]

Almost a disaster for my 400 free pick. They DQ'd Park for "moving on the starting blocks" but he appealed and is now safely into the finals! Crazy....

[darko3131]

Beisel is a LOCK -200 all the way to the bank. Miley barely even qualified.

[ramones951]

Nice call on Sun Yang he just took the gold

That was a great race and Sun burned him on the last 50!

[ramones951]

Beisel should win ... but seen way crazier things happen

[ramones951]

Ye!!! Beisel got crushed on freestyle

[karamazov]

thanks Ramones
