Mirza was very dinged up last year, think she is healthy now.

Bammer took fat Serena to the woodshed last night. Sat there for 10 minutes pondering pulling the trigger on that one.:ohno:

Thanks for the plays railbird.

Mirza is now +216 at pinny.

Mirza to win 2-1 is +505
Mirza to win 2-0 is +540

If you want to be Mirza to win, wouldn't you be better off to just bet 2-0 AND 2-1? If she wins, wouldn't she have to win either 2-0 or 2-1? I'm new to wagering on tennis so maybe I'm missing something.

1 unit on Mirza ML wins 2.16 units

1 unit on Mirza 2-1 wins 5.05 units
1 unit on Mirza 2-0 wins 5.40 units

If Sania wins 2-1, you win a net 4.05 units (5.05 from the win minus the 1 unit from the Mirza 2-0 bet, odds of +202.5). If Sania wins 2-0, you win a net of 4.40 units (Odds of +220)

If I were to bet this, I'd rather have the +216 ML odds than the two set bet odds, you can win an extra .04 units if she wins 2-0, but you can lose .175 units of potential profit if she happens to eke it out in 3 sets.
