    Halep vs Stephens

    Any value in Stephens at +250. I think Halep is a fantastic tennis player but I am a big fan of Stephens. I don't know if she has the skill set yet to beat Halep but the odds are favorable.

    Anyone got any thoughts? Halep has been cruising past her competition with wins in 14 of her last 15 (14 in a row). Let me know what you guys think.

    Yes there is. Sloane playing well enough and who knows when Halep will put in a lousy performance out of nowhere, she does do that.

    I can't understand why Stephens is only -120 to win a set, so I will be betting Stephens +1.5 sets...

    That depends entirely on who you are betting on...

    cuz she is similar player only half as good as Simona Halep, and she has a reputation
    of gagging in front of big crowds.

    Sloane is playing great tennis right now. She's also 2-0 against Halep on hard court. Halep won last week at Indian Wells, and it's pretty tough to go out and compete every night after winning a tournament the week before. I think this is a great spot to bet on Sloane.

    no bet. Halep is to hot to bet against her. On the other hand -300 is an auto no bet. We will discuss more plays tomorrow

    How did this look good on paper, IYO? Is it because the paper had a + on it next to a number or is it something else?

    this match was a gift and the line was too low.
    -275/-300 is not a heavy line in tennis.
    glad i'm cashing it at least.

    Took Halep -1.5 sets had to sweat it a minute. Like Monaco as live dog later.
