    at first look i was thinking rockets all day, after going deeper i realise the lakers are more efficient without dwight and gasol is cancer in that offense not to mention everyone is writing them off. thinking nash and kobe get it going today.

    no love for errani?

    Sando, I must give credit to you for your endless effort...

    I find it hard enough to find time researching on one sport and working on one job. Lucky for me apart from tennis (usually daily), soccer, rugby and nfl are usually weekly and mma/ufc/boxing is usually fortnightly...

    But to fit in tennis and nba together on a daily manner? that's tough work...
    I tried researching NBA but I've dropped that, anyone who can do well on a sport which I personally believe is risky, in my books knows what he/she is doing.

    So for you to be able to research on Tennis, NBA, UFC, Rugby (especially Sevens where you need to be glued to the spot), and then when the Aus sports start (NRL & AFL), and anything else i missed

    ...all while working 2 jobs did you say?

    Wow, Kudos to you my friend!

    I don't sleep much mate, average 4 hours per night. Plus I do a lot of my research at work, which is pretty satisfying getting paid to do what I really want to do.

    Sando usually you and I are on the opposite side of the spectrum when it comes to the Lakers. Couldn't believe I actually like them here and you are on Rockets this go around.. Especially since I live in Houston. Took the Fakers +8. Almost game time. I can see them getting down initially but picking it back up somewhere by 4th quarter to cover. Got a pretty big bet on them in corelation with my BR, or whats left of it after I withdrew a chunk. Hope your wrong on this one buddy

    It must be nice to be able to this at work. Sando just keep up the work for us and now you are now getting close to being up 50 units in the NBA which is just incredible. I don't know how you the time to do multiple sports like this so I applaud you for doing your hard work on this. Let me ask you what do you do when NBA and tennis isn't going on?

    should watch out for nets. been watching couple of their games lately and they been playing some team basketball. with the talent they have, they can be dangerous to bet against on.

    I couldn't operate on 4hrs sleep, would be making rash decisions

    Well it's good you can do this on the job, that's a major plus.

    Ha glad someone played it mate! All I heard was don't like the plays, sitting out today, like the Heat today, etc. Thought I was flying solo with the Pacers today. Will admit the guys that commented on the Philly pick were spot on, my worst pick in weeks! Although very unhappy with missing the under, was clearly the right play. My totals have been doing really well and this was the most confident I have been on a total in a long time. The reason I only played it for 1x is because I don't like to "load up" on the 1 game (already had the ATS pick). Should have just played the "obvious" total (Lakers/Rockets Over)

    Thanks alot for the huuuge card (NBA and Tennis combined) and all the work you put in.
    I was of course with you on the Pacers, perfect game.
    Accidentally put 2 bets on the Rockets spread and even if I still don't know how that happened I like the turn in the 4th qtr (or late 3rd)

    I really wanted to hedge at half time. Should have just made a 2nd half play. Are there any US books that have this option? Anyone know?

    What happens when you wager on a player and the other player retires? Sock retired against Capdeville. It wasn't available on 5D but I was wondering what would happen.

The reason I am posting these picks is to help sharpen my eye for when the real tournament starts. These are not darts thrown. Each pick is carefully selected and I am confident that at the end of day 1, I will be in the positive units with these selections.

    Aus Open Qualifiers

    *You will need a serious Tennis book to bet on these (5 Dimes, Bet 365, IAS, Sportsbet, CentreBet, Sportingbe, Paddy)

    Round 1

    Ricardo Hocevar (v. Reid) +140, $2.40 5 Dimes 2x
    Uladzimir Ignatik
    (v. Stebe) +150, $2.50 5 Dimes 1.5x
    Evgeny Korolev (v. Haider-Maurer) -130, $1.77 5 Dimes 1x
    Antonio Veic (v. Mertl) -109, $1.91 IAS/Sportsbet 1x
    Christopher Rungkat (v. Polansky) +245, $3.45 IAS/Sportsbet 0.5x
    Paul Capdeville (v. Sock) +182, $2.82 IAS/Sportsbet 0.5x
    Riccardo Ghedin (v. Klein) +120, $2.20 5 Dimes 0.5x
    Nicolas Devilder (v. Ram) +250, $2.50 Sportingbet 0.5x

    So according to the bookies you listed Pinnacle won't be enough for the real tournament?!

    Querry 2-0. Cashed already mate. Don't really do favorite picks, BOTD's, etc, however if you just want 1 pick to bet would recommend Zakapalova -4 or Millan +3.5.

    That's what you posted with your Aus Open Qualifiers (Round 1) picks you want to track but Pinnacle isn't listed there.
    Is Pinnacle going to offer all the matches you bet on or do I need some "Tennis heavy" bookie?
    Ok gotcha now. Pinnacle is always my first choice for any sport, but unfortunately they don't do qualifiers, so that's why I didn't list them.

    Still plenty of matches left mate (page 99 or 100), however you will have missed a lot of the best prices as tennis lines/prices swing savagely. Also being 4-1 so far today there is a good chance there are a few losses coming, so tread carefully.
