I just pawned my car and cashed out my 401K to put it all on this
$1274 on
Dementieva +150
She-man couldn't possibly beat her 4-in-a-row. Not after she slayed Queen Bootay.

Who is she playing? Dementieva is a phenomenal returner, the female David Ferrer, but she gets broken so many times. Her serve has weakened and it was never dominant to begin with, perhaps because of a shoulder injury.

are pawn shops open 24 hours? I do have some classics like Debbie Does Wallstreet and When Harry Shagged Sally. According to porn price list they can fetch more than my car!

Anyone thinking about betting on this match run away. NEVER EVER bet a tennis match that has two russians. remember what happened recently when these two played? Demen up 5-1 or whatever it was and serving for the match and Safina comes back to win 7-6 in the second set and then 6-0 in the final set. Its ****ing rigged.Lots of money was made that day for the people that know
Hope Demen hits for you

I picked Dinara to win Gold before the draw came out. I'm sticking with my pick.

I hear the '95 Festiva is one sweet ride, but take a strong look at the '99 Pinto.
Good luck on your wager.

didn't Sharapova also blow a 5-2 lead at French Open before losing to Safina in 3?
But the Russian mafia tends to like the dogs don't they?
Dementieva now up to +160

Another match with two russians that was suspicious.
If you use Betfair odds,a player with a 5-2 lead in the second set, after winning the first, would probably be 1.01-1.10. Depending on who it is.If its a big name, 1.01-1.03. Therefore, if a player is up 5-2 and serving for the match, you can Lay that player (Bet the losing player) at odds such as $10 to win $800 or $10 to win $1,000.Lots is usually available to be match to. So if you knew that a player would come back from 5-2 down in that set, you can bet $1,000 on the player down to win $100,000. Money can be made very easily if you bet in-play.

Whilst everything you say is correct, it's not quite as easy to pull those things off as it used to be with the UK betting exchanges because of an agreement between the exchanges and the governing bodies of a lot of world sports. There are many recent examples, especially in tennis, where Betfair have withheld payments pending investigations regarding alleged matchfixing. As soon as any money pours in for a player who is facing serve and losing 5-2 in the final set it sets off red flags and the people placing the bets can be traced quite easily in this day and age. Whether anyone has never been paid I couldn't say but there are literally hundreds of accounts that have been frozen pending investigation by the UK financial authorities. Ironically, the stricter regulations weren't introduced because of sports betting, they were introduced because low grade journeymen jockeys realised they could make more by laying horses that they were riding to lose than they would make by actually winning. As soon as that happened the UK horse racing authority realised racing could be destroyed by corruption and urged the exchanges to monitor all betting patterns and since then they have.
If you've got time, this was the case that got the ball rolling as regards stricter monitoring of betting patterns at exchanges.
