    Olympic Speed skating
    Mens 1500 meter

    Pick: Koen Verweij to finish top 3
    Odds: 1.91
    Bookie: Unibet

    The man won a medal already on the 1000 meters and is considered to be better on the 1500 as he is, compared to the real sprinters, a bit of a slow starter.
    The fact that of all skaters he had the fastest last 400 meter at the 1000 tells a story.

    The 1500 is the distance that is really decided in the last 400 meters. Get through that without losing too much time compared to 200 to 600 meters and you ll be in thetop. That last round is where the 100% sprinters lose a lot of time to guys like Verweij.

    Verweij will start in the last heat and will know what he has to do for gold. Yes, i think he can get gold here (@5.5) and with those odds he is 2nd favourite behind Denis Yuskov (@5) who of course has home advantage.

    Other Dutch skaters could proof to be very important as they start early and probably will put up times that are too good for most. Even bigger favourites than Tuitert and Groothuis could find the times those 2 set are too good for them.

    It is really going to be about the last 400, skaters can completely explode there. And that is exactly where Verweij is at his best.

    You can check my speed skating tips in this thread for earlier tips and results during the olympics.

    Verweij got the silver medal. 0.003 seconds away from gold.

    This is just great. Nice start to my weekend....:o

    Absolute disaster; Thought my 2-1, 3-0, 3-1 correct score hedges would minimise losses.

    Goddamn gunners.... I have to go away and drink now :)

    Ireland -12 in the second half is a great bet I think.
