You said all in in your first post so it wasn't much of an indication of numbers involved and I'd never recommend that for anyone. Knowing the dollar figures involved on each player now, hedge on Lisicki and be done with it. No stress for you regardless. It's what I call a greenout - you win money no matter what happens. 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!

**EaglesPhan36** · 07-02-13, 10:01 PM

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.

**EaglesPhan36** · 07-04-13, 12:56 AM

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

Wastoid is my only Thursday bit of awesometivity.

**jinxpro1313** · 07-04-13, 01:09 AM

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.

'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.

**EaglesPhan36** · 07-04-13, 04:42 PM

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.

this calculator is perfect for you...it generates the "equal green no matter what" solution

works out to +$111.40 per $5 invested in ms Bartoli a few days ago at +7000, when EP suggested

July 5th: Wimbledon
ATP: Del Potro Wins 1st +330
ATP: Janowicz Wins 1st Set +250

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.

im feelin the del po one for sure.
murray isn't losing that 1st set. would bet hundreds on it if the odds weren't so shit.

**EaglesPhan36** · 07-05-13, 12:09 AM

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.

At any rate I expect to see Licker in tears by the end of the match. Or even before...

Well you missed the first one so I'm gonna ride the second one with you, I had a little inkling of it anyway

Thank you SIR!!! +7000

**Hardcoar** · 07-06-13, 01:00 PM

Phanboy, is there any way for me to avoid manually sending two points a day, while still sending the remaining 23 pixels? :/

**shari91** · 07-06-13, 01:01 PM

WTG sweetpea!!!!!!!!!!

Can't believe how much I banked in fricken Wimbledon from Bartoli of all players. Seriously this was our one shot because I can't see it happening again. So happy you hit that future! xo

**EaglesPhan36** · 07-06-13, 01:02 PM

Send them in the mail? LoL. I'll survive with or without them ... I mean barely, but I will survive.

Yeah I hedged on Lisicki to win some, but kept the bigger part on Baroli. 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.

Not bad when you can make money on futures, makes up for a rather blah tournament overall in the picks department for me. Reverse of the French Open when I picked decently in the tourney, but shit the bed on the futures.

Psyched for the US Open. My favorite Slam still.

You didn't watch?! I figured you were at work or dead but still watching. Dude get a replay. She dismantled her. 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.

**EaglesPhan36** · 07-06-13, 01:16 PM

No, this is my one day to sleep in. I will watch the replay on Tennis Channel some time today. Well I'm sure her tears mirrored those of the people who backed her.

**Hardcoar** · 07-06-13, 01:23 PM

I am intent on fulfilling my commitment! Zemlja shall be honored! Or was it Sijsling?? Whatever...

It might take a while though!
