Wimbledon Men's Semis - Results/Women's Final

My apologies for not updating the blog before the start of the Murray/Nadal match.  No viable excuse.

I ended up backing Nadal from the start.  This didn't go well as Murray took the first set in a late break of serve.  Instead of laying for a loss I backed Nadal further.  I did this because he wasn't playing all that well and Murray was playing really exceptionally.  I knew the tide for both of them would have to change and sure enough it did.  Nadal started playing better and Murray started playing much worse.

Tomorrow I'm going to back Maria Sharapova from the beginning of the match and lay when I have a 15% profit.

Wimbledon Men's Semis

So Maria came through for me even after a tough start.  I was tempted to sell off when she went down 3 games to love, but I held on.  A valuable lesson is that there are always large swings in the tennis markets.  That is why they can be so profitable.

Today is the men's semifinals.  First match is Djokovic v Tsonga.  I plan to back Djokovic from the beginning and then trade for profit and then make some other trades based on the opportunities I see.

I'll have another post before the Murray/Nadal match before it starts.
