    Sharapova +170
    Great price on the superior clay court player, who is in form, and gunning for number one. First red clay court final for Serena in a long time. Will hope to take a few bucks from this and sprinkle on a very motivated but maybe-too-exhausted Stanislas.

    Stan's a pipe dream, but Maria gets it done.

    hmm good luck on that but I hate that price. I'd need alot more than +170 to back someone who is 0-11 vs their opponent and simply outmatched in every way.

    Having said that, I'm pretty surprised Pova is only +170 here. As well as she's been playing, most of that should go out the window when she goes up against Serena, who just knows how to beat her. Maybe Vegas giving Pova a good shot here or are truly off with this line.

      I am certain the books want the bettor to see the juicy odds on Serena and default that way necessarily due to the monstrous head to head. The reality of the moment has many intangibles falling pova's way. We will see soon enough if the bet on Serena can be both sensible and that easy.

        Still no idea how lines function, I see...

        Also, how could anyone in their right mind bet on Po'Po at these odds? Have you looked at the history of the lines in their previous meetings, including on clay?? Why are you so enticed when the odds are at their worst EVER!?

          Lines at +190 Sharapova now

          I watched all the matches this tournament. Both found ways to win. Sharapova struggled with her serve more than Serena, Serena seemed to be hitting more errors than winners. Need to look that up, don't really care because with Tennis Im more concerned with form during the last two or three matches than overall stats. Sharapova, dispatched an In-Form Ana fairly easily last time out. Ana played exceptional, but was nothing more than an annoyance to Sharpova.

          Serena did as well against Errani, but Errani turned it in after she lost the first set, Serana Struggled against Medina, although she won, it seemed like she had to work extra hard and wasnt hitting the corners like she normally does.

          I have this match is an absolute toss up, 50/50 straight out, and I'll always take the +110 or greater in these types of matches. At +190, can't pass that up. I think the books and the Public are over compensating the 12 - 2 h2h.

          Taking Sharapova un-emotionaly here simply for the value,

          Money Line 300.00 570.00 Tennis - 4930 M. Sharapova +190 for Game

          good luck to us, should be a fun match to watch regardless...

            "Tomorrow is the final program of the WTA tournament in Madrid will meet the first American tennis player Serena Williams of the world, against Russia, which is second in the rankings Maria Sharapova. Sharapova was impressive in this tournament without losing a single set, the dock is Serena had difficulty against Medina A. match was played in sets of three. What can I notice in the last two games of the tournament, Serena was making an unusually large number of errors is not coerced, today against Sara Errani nearly 25 in the first set, and eventually had about 35 Serena is not playing at full pace, although it seems to many, but I saw it and I know that's not entirely right Serena Williams. Sharapova today against Anna played a great match in the first set a lot of double faults in one gejmu at 3-3 even 3 double faults. It is in the middle of the first set of invited coaches got the hint and suddenly her game completely prmijenila, she made a lot of winners and the service was impeccable. As for playing on clay Sharapova was slightly better and more suitable this surface, an interesting fact is that Serena a few years back zaigrava the red clay!. So far, these two players have played 11 games all 11 times celebrated Serena. I think it's time to stop this series and celebrated Russian."

              "Finals in Madrid tournament is played on clay, best performances of the tournament has just provided a Maria Sharapova and I'll bet on her to win today. Sharapova is the better player and I expect her victory, maybe even without dropping a set. Serena Williams to play this tournament very badly surprised why such low odds on it, if you can beat Serena who it is that Sharapova plays great. It is interesting that not long ago Sharapova beat Serena Williams, the last 11 head to head matches between the two tennis player Serena Williams has won each, I think it's his turn to beat Sharapova."

                    "Previously tournament rivals crossed paths 14 times. While the major advantage of personal meetings on the side of the American athletes - 12-2. This season, Williams and Sharapova have met twice. In the semifinals of the tournament in Doha American rival gave only five games - 6:3, 6:2. and a month later in the main match of the tournament in Miami Serena won in three sets - 4:6, 6:3, 6:0.
                    In Madrid, each of the competitors spent five matches. First, the U.S. representative beat the Russians Yulia Putintseva (7:6, 6:1). In the second round Williams easily sorted out with the mistress of the courts Lourdes Dominguez Lino (6:2, 7:5). She then took her out of the way yet another Russian Maria Kirilenko (6:3, 6:1). In the quarterfinals, Serena withstood the Spanish tennis player Anabel Medina Garrigues, to defeat the first world took three sets (6:3, 0:6, 7:5). And in a dispute over access to the main match of the tournament, Williams won the junior Sarah Errani of Italy (7:5, 6:2).
                    Sharapova is not yet handed in Madrid rivals a single set. In her opening match she beat Romanian Alexandra Dulgheru (7:5, 6:2), then gave all three games an American Christina McHale (6:1, 6:2). In the third round after a meeting with Mary sheathed racket German Sabine Lisicki (6:2, 7:5). In the quarter finals Sharapova sent home Estonian tennis player Kaya Kanepi (6:4, 6:2), and in the semifinals she coped with Serbian Ana Ivanovic (6:4, 6:3). By the way, the last victory was a Russian tennis player for 500th in the WTA-tour.
                    Last year, Williams also reached the final in Madrid, where he beat Belarusian Victoria Azarenka. And Sharapova stumbled on the 1/4 finals, losing both times Williams Jr. with a score of 1:6, 3:6.
                    Additional intrigue of this confrontation is that in case of victory, Sharapova will return to the first line of the world rankings. And considering that immediately after Madrid Mary waiting for the two titles of protection - in Rome and Paris, it would now be very extra points would not hurt."

                            The Williams -3 games line was a gift from the tennis gods. Getting Serena at only -3 against any player on this planet is an absolute steal due to the fact that she is the queen of bageling her opponents. All you need is one bagel or a 6-1 set and it's pretty much cash. Even if Williams loses a set, you're still in the driver's seat because its very rare Williams loses a set less than 6-3

                            This was a total gift line and best value of any odds in all sports today.

                              -3 games being a gift all depends on the odds.

                              If they are about evens then yes – it is.

                                I grabbed it early at only -110. Way too juicy to pass up.

                                    Really now? No line or bet is a gift or is easy. Every bet is exactly the same. Just because a bet won easily, or was a blow out,even is it Nadal or Serena,doesnt mean jack shit, its irrelevent. All bets are the same, some have value others don't. Your angles found value in this line, and you won. Good Job!

                                    But....This type of attitude, that any bet can be considered easy, is a very dangerous mentality to have, and could lead to eventual ruin. I don't know how times Ive witnessed people ,including myself, bet way to much because an emotional response told you it was a sure thing. Serena will eventually fall off her pedestal as shes 31. Hard to say how long until that happens. Good luck though

                                      -3 @ evens on Serena under normal circumstances is currently, however, always a very good bet IMO.

                                        I'm not a Serena fan, this was far from an emotional bet. I'm a fan of making money and if you factored in all the variables including the obvious Williams dominance over Pova, her movement on this surface is better than Pova, better power and accuracy than Pova.....those are all the factors I used , not emotion. Every bet is NOT exactly the same. That's why there's a term called VALUE in sports betting. If you're a successful bettor , you look for these values.

                                        And what you mentioned about Serena eventually falling off her pedestal is irrelevant to this match.

                                            overslept so i had no action but what a disappointment from pova, serena owns her ass. seems like their is 3 levels in tennis, there is serena(level 1) then there's sharapova, azarenka, na li, radwanska, kvitova, etc(level 2) and then theres just everyone else(level 3).

                                            makes tennis boring imo, sharapova steamrolled through this tournament and then just ran into a brick wall.

                                              This. She is so far ahead of the curve of the next best player it isn't funny. She can turn it on at the drop of a hat and just steamroll anyone on tour, regardless of surface. I almost did a double take when I saw the line and immediately parlayed it with Nadal in straight sets at +200.

                                                  Everybody ride her, just like a bus route``

                                                  Sorry to say that on Mother`s Day.
                                                  IMO keep on riding the Serena bus for now if you can get higher than 1.4 v Azarenka or Sharapova unless she has an injury/illness. Watch out for Li Na although she's been crap as of late.

                                                    Very nice hit and find on the Nadal straight sets +200. It's funny how these two players are so far ahead of the competition on their surface like you mentioned. The books were on the wrong side today and payed heavily for it. Most sharp bettors I talked to pounded Williams across the board in almost every imaginable bet.

                                                          i think he means the net outcome was +200 when parlayed. nadal was about -250 in straight sets today, as a solo bet.

                                                            I watched all the matches this tournament. Both found ways to win. Sharapova struggled with her serve more than Serena, Serena seemed to be hitting more errors than winners. Need to look that up, don't really care because with Tennis Im more concerned with form during the last two or three matches than overall stats. Sharapova, dispatched an In-Form Ana fairly easily last time out. Ana played exceptional, but was nothing more than an annoyance to Sharpova.

                                                            Serena did as well against Errani, but Errani turned it in after she lost the first set, Serana Struggled against Medina, although she won, it seemed like she had to work extra hard and wasnt hitting the corners like she normally does.

                                                            I have this match is an absolute toss up, 50/50 straight out, and I'll always take the +110 or greater in these types of matches. At +190, can't pass that up. I think the books and the Public are over compensating the 12 - 2 h2h.

                                                            Taking Sharapova un-emotionaly here simply for the value,

                                                            Money Line 300.00 570.00 Tennis - 4930 M. Sharapova +190 for Game

                                                            good luck to us, should be a fun match to watch regardless...
                                                            Serena vs Pova is a toss-up????
