    Thanks, I think it was one of those fortune ones where the bookies couldn't set it too high or too low so we can take advantage of if with the middle one

    logistics of life won't allow me to tail consistently anymore for the time being, so i won't be updating anymore

    should be easy to carry on from my numbers (altho' i did intentionally "lose" all your pushes--which i'd estimate number a few dozen since the start of the year...appearing as they do a few times a month)

    will continue to check in as often as possible in order to over the units I'm missing out on cuzza da' time-zone and new work-shit considerations...pretty well baseball, hockey, and fighting for me from now on (there are very few things i despise more than basketball and "foot"ball, and betting on that horseshit just magnifies my hatred)...

    trying to tail the "round the clock" stuff like tennis and soccer usually just ends up pissing me off cuz of the painful periods of disproportionately "missing the winners and hitting the losers" (aka. Murphy's Law )...so i'll just have to go cold turkey altogether (altho' i just may eventually choose one/a few soccer league(s) in a good timezone and work on a system to unearth "value" in ML-draws only...would be nice to get those fukkers on my side for a change, lol)


    anyhow, Jeff...good luck going forward on your great calendar-2016 campaign

    Thanks, Yeah he broke back after being broken then that didn't last long. And here I was going to post that regretful moment I didnt go for +5 instead lol.
    Vesely looked shaky that entire second set (compared to the first) but still somehow bought it into a tiebreaker, good work ol chap!
    Then you see matches like the one against Edmund (when I was checking) and he was up 5-0 in the 3rd set heh.

    curious on your thoughts on this play.
    youhzny has been a challenger series warrior this year, muller is in great form...

    Fair question, grass and especially those chump tournaments before Wimbledon are usually when i'll take the bait on Youhzny and only as a dog. Last year he was out of form then, this year is a bit of a different story, has won some matches, gave Thiem a good fight (which I got on posted here)

    That said he does get some good surprise upsets or "upsets" depending on how one perceives the favourite to be. Say Lopez who usually should walk into these finals off his serve and volley game he beat as a 3.30 dog. But that also said Lopez had a mediorce grass campaign and is getting on in age. That doesn't stop the bookies from giving him short odds that people and squares will take.

    Muller...good as he can be and only seems to like winning when I'm not on him haha...Again he's done well too after missing a chunk of the clay season which he doesn't like anyway and has taken advantage of his serve. I hate his technique though, it feels so awkward and that any time he could throw up a batch of unforced errors haha. There seems to be little margin for error between a clean winner/ace and an UE.

    I just hope in my case the 2.5 line makes for a tight game even if Youhzny doesn't win here

    I must admit, I've incorporated your style a bit in some of my bets as well. Giving anyone a +8 handicap on grass is tempting to say the least.

    Of course, sometimes it doesnt work out like it did yesterday haha. As always its a dice roll with whos serving first but it wouldnt have mattered anyway with the last set, ahh well...

    I must say Novak is absolutely a bad matchup for Mannarino and he should hammer him but with Novak going 0-9 ATS in Slams during Rounds 1-4 it's hard to back especially considering he is usually in Gear 1 these opening rounds unless he needs to step it up like he did against Anderson last year here or Simon in Australia.
    The Under 28 is hell tempting but i'll leave it. No doubt he will win like 6-3, 6-4, 6-3 or something heh.

    You sure about this bet bro? I'm not to sure about Robin to be honest, he has a very troubled mind. He has a lot of personal shit going on with his former tennis coach being framed for the murder on C. Everink. Surely this will weigh heavily on his focus, all happened very recently.

    I was thinking of going for Sock but i haven't seen him play that much recently. Any info?

    I agree - usually I don't take Djokovic's line in early rounds because he doesn't cover, but I don't bet against it either, because he's that good. I took it today because I thought 28 games was pretty generous, but that's the exception

    Yeah this was on the back of my mind but I didn't factor into it largely, I saw him play his grass matches before wimbledon, he's going ok and hitting it sweetly, thing is I don't trust sock as a favourite and with Haases serve I'm hoping for a tiebreak or two...
    I've seen him play on grass before and I would love to see how he goes with a consistent hear on the tour on the faster surfaces, his game looks so clean to me when he's hitting it well.
    that said with the possibility of a postponement I am tempted to add the over 37 as I am not sure it will be straight sets either way and sock is as mental midget as anyone!

    Yeah. 0-10 for Djokovic ATS now. I underestimated Mannarino - his game style is pretty good on grass. Anyone other than the top 10 and I reckon he would've had a chance at beating them.

    I tailed big On Tsonga, was great to watch him somehow pull off the victory after being down 2 sets. Any plays for tomorrow? Some high level tennis to be played. The lines make me wonder if Kyrgios and Steve Johnson has good shots at pulling upsets.

    Yah I will post something later after reassessing the weather, hate have players being disrupted due to it and some don't handle it as well, looks like yesterday was good im that regard so hopefully a few plays

    i am surprised Tsonga pulled it off but that said, Isner just isn't a big match player in the slams these days

    how Zverev covered -5 in 5 sets (yeah I know there was a 6-0) I'll never know! lol

    I agree with you about Federer - interesting to see how many people think Johnson is a god on grass now. He's beat some good players, but Fed is on another level. Mahut also such a good price - he should be winning this pretty easily.

    Yeah I think they will both win and win well. Federer looked pretty good in his tune up events as well. Aside from his first match it's been a good ride against inferior talent.

    I must admit, I can see it going to two or three tiebreaks though, because Johnson's been serving well. OVER 35 tempted me for a bit, but I think it'll be close, and I don't like backing plays that might only win by one game or so. Querrey is an average player who had a great day against a great player who had an average day. Mahut is good enough to take advantage. Can't believe the odds are so high.

    Interesting though - you think Goffin can make inroads against the Raonic serve?
