Both Williams sisters lose today

**EaglesPhan36** · 08-13-09, 06:00 PM

Venus lost to Pennetta who had been playing lights out in the last two weeks, that was not a big upset based on that. Apparently there was a Twitter update someone got that Serena had a sore throat prior to her match, I think some people F-ed the books hardcore on that because Bammer was about +850. I unfortunately was a doosh and did not even throw a little on it as I caught the update right when wagers were due.

any1 playing the williams sisters on non slams are out of their minds. seriously. i played bammer +6 medium, no way she was going to not cover.
they want to be the real nr.1 but they think only tournaments matter are slams !!

They do not put out, I guess do not want to wear down before open

pinnaclesports of course ! they had hanescu +6 too i cashed on that one big too lol!! but serena covered her r1 match as -6 fav still

sad state of affairs in the WTA if Kim wins this tournament, her first back. Up agasint the so-called world #1 Safina. Kim is much more athletic, greater court coverage and has terrific defensive abilities. She can match Safina in the power department. IMO, not a good match up for Dinara today, the line has world #1 Safina the DOG!!!!!

they both lost the same day in olympics too........lost a fortune that day.

**yisman** · 08-14-09, 10:03 AM

they're an easy fade. Dunno why anybody would be laying the chalk with them. I haven't seen value in a Williams line in over a year.

**dennisback** · 08-14-09, 10:04 AM

maybe serena @ wimbledon final +140

oh it was vs. Venus though

**yisman** · 08-18-09, 02:32 PM

V.Williams went down to K.Bondarenko today.

He was -1200 at Bodog.

This stuff is predictable. I sometimes wonder why I don't autofade them in non-majors.

Absolutely agree, the Williams sisters might as well not even show up in non-major tourneys they never even try and always get beat by some qualifier or 30th ranked player

Then in majors they never lose a set to anyone outside the top 5 or 6, clearly they dont even give a shit about non-majors and must be getting paid nice appearance fees to even show up

Venus lost after winning set 1 6-1 . The line for Bondarenko was +1750 after set 1. Today Serena will NOT cover a +6 or +6.5 spread vs. Shvedova im pretty sure of that.
