Tennis is not easy, -706 is nothing. It is one on one, all it takes is one player having a bad day or taking a set off. These tournaments are essentially exercise and advertising opportunities for top players, you have to not only look for value but pick the right situation. Plenty bigger favorites than this lose in tennis all the time.

if thats true you should be betting against her.

You are joking, right?

If -706 is nothing, you should be taking +706.

What I meant to say is the notion that there can be no value on such a price is ridiculous.

In tennis it is simply not as easy as laying the lumber and coming out ahead, which was the point.

louie hows the tennis going?

RogueScholar · 04-25-09, 12:14 PM

Dude, what's up with the two month hiatus? We've got awesome tennis being played, Fed Cup matches for the girls and Barcelona Final for the boys. Make a pick, damnit! If you want to be the best, you have to fight through adversity. Drink some raw eggs like Rocky and get back on the horse.

Good thread.

I think he gave up because the negative numbers were getting too big for him to calculate.
