Have to take things like the weather forecast into consideration on this, too much wind = void WR, wrong direction => < P (WR)

Bolt is more then capable but without anyone pushing him who's to say he doesn't let up near the end like he did today?

It will be tough to beat if Bolt doesn't go all out for 200m. Johnson's world record is .3 better then the next best recorded time.

I would never bet something that too much wind would cancel out.

Too much wind would make this wager a loss I believe.

I'm not a big expert but unless the wind is blowing seriously I don't think it will matter.

imo If Usain Bolt goes all out on this track the record is his.

The 200 is a strategic bear. Among the other variables (start, and the always trecherous curve- most would be surprised at how difficult it is to run the curve), my thought is that 200 specialist Dix medaling in the 100 changes this race toward more caution and technigue for the Jamaican powerhouses Bolt and Powell, negating wild WR times into more controlled racing. The Jamaican contenders will be less concerned with time and more concerned about Walter Dix which changes all strategies. My bet is on the negative. After that, I might take a look at the odds on US Runner Crawford who might medal after Bolt and Dix. Along with the qualifying rounds, this race will be exciting to watch.
