Ok Guys I am betting BIG on this years Wimbledon. I am massive on Federer to win Wimbledon..Quite simply there is no one left that can deny him now that Nadal is gone. Murray is a good prospect but this a huge leap to make and I don't think he is ready to cope with the enormous expectation. Federer has just won the French (that was a HUGE monkey off his back) and I will be totally amazed if he doesnt do it here in Nadals absence, hence the massive bet. I think Federers price is the biggest steal since Floyd Mayweather against Ricky Hatton. I murdered that and I will take this huge gift from the Books as well..I don't think Murray will even get to the final, so I am looking for some value in the top half. So here are my selections...
 
40 Units Federer to win Wimbledon...-110
1 Unit Thomas Berdych e/w at +1500
1 Unit Andy Roddick e/w at +250
.5 Unit Gilles Simon e/w at +1250
 
 
15 Units Serena Williams to win Wimbledon +250
 
Good Luck all..

Still not to late to jump on the Mack train..choo choo.choo choo....Draw working out exactly as I expected. Got 3 dogs in the top half of the draw and every chance of having 2 dogs in the last 4 in the top half at great odds.. now a Berdych v Federer final and I can take a few months off work!!!

Those are facts.  I surely wouldn't call it for Federer just so quick.

Funny, in 8 career matches, Federer has lost 6 times to Murray.  Not much of a god.

This is a major mate. Murray wouldn't stand a chance against Fed in the final, not yet. Maybe next year.

Willy I have 40,000 on Federer. Sory i thought Unit stood for 1000 bucks here (I am Irish). So A Rod getting to final, Fed Winning and Serena winning would make me the bones of 80,000 dollars! As long as FED wins I will be up BIG!

Ticon, firstly the mens draw could not have gone better. I gave everyone the winners and its up to you to take them. Insteaf everyone ignored me. What can I do. Mind you if Fed loses I need Serena to help avoid a loss. Still though I would be stunned if Fed loses which means I have made a lovely profit overall. Honestly I love Serena in this spot. She has had tough matches the past month. Kustenova in Paris and Elena yesterday. Plus she lost in the final last year. Coming in as underdog as well!! I couldn't be happier! I would unload on Serena tomorrow if you havent already. No doubt I will get ignored again.

To add to last point. I can't remember the last tough match Venus was in and this WILL cost her. I think if you bet the underdog in the sisters games overall you would be well up.
 
I have been thinking of hedging all night, you have no idea!! If Venus and A-Rod win well no bones about it I am down 30k FACT...Can I afford the loss..yeah but it WOULD Hurt, seriously HURT!!. Serena wins, Fed loses then I will be up, not by much but up..It all comes down to FED really. The rest is a bonus..Man I am a nervous wreck now. Yes it worked out more or less as  thought (I loved Berdych though) but still...Hedge, not Hedge..
 
No Fcuk it...I am sticking with what I have, this is what I advised you guys. can't back down now..

Nice hit on both. Serena should win the US Open too. Was on her to win this w a futures bet but put some sentimental money on Venus late. Huge mistake.
