A good day yesterday with Lisicki beating Serena in the only match bet advised so far during Wimbledon fortnight. The 37.9 points profit on the match (after betfair commission and deduction of the 2pt 2-1 sets saver). At least this pays for my quarter win bets and the ew selections which have already lost.
In terms of Wimbledon bets still running, Berdych is still in there @ 66/1 ew but plays Djoko tomorrow who is in excellent form. In terms of the Women's event - which looks wide open now - we have Li Na @ 33/1, a bet placed in January with Paddy Power when she was going through a hot streak. I gave up on her after the French as still too mentally fragile. Incredibly she is no better than a 9/2 shot this morning for the championships.
Talking of the women's event being wide open I have had two further ew bets - one in each half:
2pts ew Kirsten Flipkens @ 35/1 Paddy Power (1/3 odds 1,2)
Flipkins plays Kvitova today for which she is no better than 2/1 and holds a 1-0 HTH with K-Vit. If successful she would then play the winner of Stephens v Bartoli for a place in the final. With the ew we are getting nearly 12/1 about that happening on the ew part of the bet.
The new tournament favourite Lisicki is in the other half of the draw and is up against Robson's conqueror Kanepi. I would love to see Lisicki win the championships but sentiment has no place in betting and after such a big win yesterday there could be a negative reaction so I am taking a little bet on Kanepi ew as follows:
1pt ew Kaia Kanepi @ 25/1 Totesport (1/3 odds 1,2)
Six points staked.
If I have a bet on the horses today I will publish it on the blog between 16:30 and 16:45. Talent Scout led all the way to win the selected Pontefract race yesterday.
