    There are some other parts involved with that too - like taking into account the commission that Betfair takes, and the costs of getting funds into Betfair (like CC charges that are about 1.5% or something like that), but you could still add that in and make 1k I'd imagine (haven't calculated it, but just looks that way at a glance), as well as considering if the whole bet can be laid.

    I'm not familiar with US betting law, why can't US bettors use Betfair? I'm from Aus, and one benefit is we can gamble with quite a few companies (as far as I'm aware), with the major negative being that live betting is prohibited completely online, making hedging in-play more difficult for faster-paced sports.
    Aussie too. I just withdraw/deposit to my bank account fee free with betfair.

      Yeah, makes it fairly easy, although I try to deposit only by card. Although if I do start to use Betfair more i might look into using it straight from the account.

          Ok I've made my decision on this. The more I look at it, the more I think Azarenka will win. She will be hitting winners all over the place. I've just put a small wager on azarenka 2-0. I'll still be hoping for a Li Na v Sloane final though, in which case I will unload on Li Na.

              I wish there was a way I could buy this bet from you. It's worth about $1000.

              Put some money on Sharapova too. Then if she loses, put more on Azarenka in play.

                  I bet he finds a way to borrow the 15k if that happens.

                    Well Li-Stephens final looks highly unlikely at this very moment.
