FA Cup/Australian Open

No outright bet(s) in the FA Cup in the end. William Hill didn't enliven the market as I had anticipated. As a consequence VC "offered" by far the best odds on most teams. Unfortunately VC refuse to take my bets so I didn't identify any value opportunities. Ba made a good start to his Chelsea career, scoring a brace on his debut and giving encouragement to the thought that he may be selected ahead of Torres in sufficient league matches to give him a shot at the Golden Boot. VC quickly cut his TGS odds from 14/1 to 10/1 after his Cup double (Lads and Coral only 7/1).

The Australian Open starts one week today and the forecast is for very high temperatures. In the women's event it will be hard to look past Serena, who will not be a betting proposition as she is already even money or shorter to win the tournament. The each-way market could be of interest with 1/2 odds to reach the final. The shape of the market could lead to attractive ew odds in the opposite half to Serena. The draw takes place on Friday.
