Enviable spot you're in!

    Yeah, I agree it would be too risky even with 3/4. I am going to hedge Lisicki and hope for the best, thank you Shari, EP, and tevari. I appreciate it!

        Flipkens +613 as a hedge on Bartoli. Going to go a whole unit. So either Bartoli @ +3600 if she makes the final or Flipkens +510 in the Final - accounting for the unit spent on each.

            +0.50 the ultimate total on the Ferrer-Del Potro futures. If Delpo were fully healthy, wow.

              Okay the Bartoli hedge is three units @ +775 on Flipkens to win Wimbledon.

                  Hmm, tough to bet against Bryans, but who knows. I actually like Step+Paes over Dodig/Melo; Melo I think is not that good. Strike that. Staying away from this.

                    it's not tough when you know it has no chance.

                      'Grat's on the hedge. I did not foresee Po'Mo playing the best match of his life. I guess I was unlucky in that regard...

                            Nice try hombre, not even match of the year for him. Match of his life easily is the 2009 US Open Final, bar none. Take your O.G. lesson in stride. Always hedge.

                              I've also got a future on Bartoli. Now the question is, how much to hedge off? Thinking of splitting it down the middle.

                                I like that Bartoli has been here before and she's really got no pressure on her. Everyone is still talking about Lisicki. I'm going to watch the line drift tomorrow before deciding, but likely I'm going to leave the bigger cashout if Bartoli wins - but obviously put enough on Lisicki for a nice payout as well. I just think it's anyone's match with what is on the line.

                                        The goal is to split these and make a neat, little profit. If #1 hits, #2's risk goes to 0.5 unit to keep more profit.

                                              1st Set IMO is the best shot for either underdog to grab a set as the returners try to get the measure of their serves. I'd rate Murray a better shot at dropping the 1st set as the odds suggest. He's shown enough vulnerability on-serve in the last two matches to think there's a chance if Janowicz comes out dealing on his own serve. Del Potro to me I can see matching Djokovic serve for serve in the 1st if he has his best serve on display, but I think he'd probably have to take it in a TB.

                                              Anywho, I think there's a shot. Used this a couple other times during the tournament in different spots. Not always gonna work, but I think there's a decent shot to hit 1/2.

                                                  As much as I wasn't being fully serious, it may well be his best match of the year thus far. At any rate he was absolutely amazing Wednesday.

                                                  Not much of a lesson to be had for me in my own opinion. I don't hedge when I'm prepared to take the risk, as was the case this time. Tough shit but I made my choice consciously.

I'm going to watch the line drift tomorrow before deciding, but likely I'm going to leave the bigger cashout if Bartoli wins - but obviously put enough on Lisicki for a nice payout as well. I just think it's anyone's match with what is on the line.
                                                  At any rate I expect to see Licker in tears by the end of the match. Or even before...

Really expected to wake up this morning and see that she got beat ... but also knew it was anyone's game considering she has the Finals experience, I thought she had a better shot than the actual odds of the match.

Lisicki cried multiple times including one where I finally cracked it in Hardcoar's thread. Marion picked her apart like a seagull chomping on KFC and Lisicki's serve went awol which didn't help. Her ball toss was like a drunk clown and when she got into rallies she made the most stupid shots possible. She fought for 2 games near the end of the 2nd but seriously it was a smackdown.
