    It doesn't matter to me if anyone follows, I'm just putting that out there as this is one game I'd stake my reputation as a tennis handicapping evaluator on.

        I actually agree with the pick but two questions, who is Radwanska (I've never heard of her has she won anything? All I know is somehow she's 11th seed in the tournament) and how did that no-name midget kid comeback from a set down to beat the 6th ranked alien in the world

          Radwanska is the best 20 year old tennis player in the world, period. People that follow the tour know her game and what she's capable of. The one thing that will hinder her from being a 5+ Slam winner is the fact that she has no answer for someone with a Williams, Ivanovic, or Wozniacki power. She plays great defense, makes very few unforced errors, and just has this consistency in the style she plays that is really quite remarkable to watch. She is not a mental case, won't blow up in a match, she's simply an incredible athlete and "smart" tennis player. She isn't gifting this match to some 17 year old that has already achieved her big "surprise" (take it with a grain of salt, Jankovic blows hot and cold like the rest of them).

            No offense, but what reputation is that? All I've seen in the past few weeks is you getting absolutely shit-hammered by taking these huge favorites and losing.

              You kidding me? Oudin, a 17 year old midget that capitalized off a choking Jelena Jankovic is actually less than a 3-1 dog to upset the most consistent
              player she has EVER faced?

              This is just highway robbery here for anyone that actually bites on Oudin, I really think the Slams have a tendency to be ''dumbed down'' any time a big favorite and popular player gets upset. We saw the same with Soderlings lines not where they should be after upsetting Nadal, now we see the same ridiculousness on Oudin, a player that is ranked what #150 in the world?

              Radwanska will lose to a Williams sister and absolutely nobody else, maybe Wozniacki, that's how damn good and consistent she is. She isn't going to gift this match with unforced errors, horrible horrible match up for Oudin. Cinderella going home.

              -310 is a pinnacle number like you always use (but can't bet).

              The current limit is to win $5,000. That's a $15,500 risk. You want us to believe you are betting 8 months salary on one tennis match?

                      Lou,laying juice like that on heavy favs is ridiculous...anyone can lose in tennis as the other poster said when Soderling beat Nadal recently...if a player is off ,you are done for...women can be very much like that as seen with Jelena...she was -1500 juice...-1500 to win 100 is not good....and -310 to win 100 isnt much better...you got better value on a dog like Momo at + money if anything...

                        Radawanska has without a doubt the worst 2nd serve of any top 12 women. She had some serves less than 60 miles and hour against Li Na. She's consistent and all that but jesus she is weak.

                            If Oudin wins tomorrow - this thread is going to explode with laughter.

                              Like I said her strong point is not her power, and that is why she is so weak against players with dominant power, but thing is a lot of players that fit that criteria i.e. Ivanovic are so wildly inconsistent and commit so many errors that the consistency and coolness of Radwanska is always going to be a major plus particularly in the WTA.

                              Either way, Oudin definitely isn't going to be blasting Radwanska off the court and will find herself outmatched only this time once she gets down the first set there will be no miracle comeback.

                                                Thanks CrazyLou I know very little if anything about tennis, you talked a big game and backed it up and I appreciate it. I hate tailing blindly but it was too hard to ignore your confidence putting yourself out there like that, much the same way you did with your bold statement Nadal wouldn't win the French. Thanks again and good luck the rest of the way.

                                                    If it seems to good to be true it usually is!!

                                                    I have a natural instinct to exploit market ineffieciencies!!

                                                        Yeah a -310 bet that I was sure would move as I was quite confident in the play that later closed at over -375 most shops and closed at -361 at Pinnacle sports further cements my reputation as a short-term losing poster.

                                                        Not to mention the play won in straight sets, although that's not really relevant.

                                                          You lost your reputation, Lou.

                                                          Posting a winner ruined it for you.

                                                          You staked your reputation on it and lost. Find a new line of work, buddy.
