    Great finish to an amazing night/day of tennis. 6-2 today with my two losses being being very small wagers.

    Onto bases now....GO Brewers!

    hmm i dont think its impossible to hit 60% long term, i play no big favorites, i play mostly o/u's and spreads for the most part. i think majority of people lose money on tennis simply because they play favorite and ml's, i dont ever play ml's if its greater then -120 simply because the juice. if you stick to o/u's and spreads its not that hard to make money off tennis.

I make thousands of bets a year in all sports and have never came close to a losing streak like that. Tennis is the most humbling sport you can gamble on. As great as you think you are when you go on big runs, you question yourself and curse the sport when you go on worse runs. But we've all seen people like Astros before... the second things will go bad in tennis, we will never hear from him again until he goes on another streak a year from now.

How many people piled on Nadal in live betting when he was down a set because they could get a better price than pre match? Or Simon? Just like when people pile on "sure favourites" pre match because of rank, H2H ( on different surfaces mind you), etc... I love those people and thank them for their contributions as that makes my dog wins that much more profitable.

    However... there is no guru with tennis betting. Bet on -250 fave and win. Bet the next -350 and lose. GL. Those who are making money on this sport consistently (ie over a year or more) are either spending a hell of a lot of time following every single person playing on the Tour (challengers included) and have excellent discipline/mm, getting lucky with big smashes or are arbing. That's it. The rest of us hope to have a profit at the end of the year.
    why do you assume people are betting money line favorites?! i never said im a amazingn capper, but tennis is very profitable if you pick and choose your sports, playing majority of master and grand slams is good money if you can pick the spots. i usually always post picks during grand slams and i have lost but i never "disappear"

    Sorry i could not reply before and the match is now over but for what its worth, lopez won the last time they played on an hard surface in straight sets. I saw yesterdays match against berdych as a greater triumph than that of mayer over nadal (nadal lost the game off his own racquet). Lopez was the more in form player and at + odds how can you not play that!

    Lopez was only at + odds because Mayer bet 'nadal'. PFFT. If mayer bet someone else other than nadal yesterday, lets say for example nishikori, Lopez would be favored, probably something like -120. Hope this shed some light on my pick.

    if have access to 5dimes take a look at Andy Murray to win the event at -273, guy is 6-0 vs Lopez and has never lost to Ferrer on a non clay court. I know its chalky but seems solid

    Lopez +135

    Lopez is in hot form.

    Dominates ferrer on hard courts. 6-1 over their past h2h history. Although lopez got smashed the last time they played, it was on clay and ferrer always dominates lopez on clay. Lopez with the surface advantage today.

    Unbelievable. Lopez goes down in 3. Ferrer played a magnificent game. Fortunately for me, i didn't pound lopez like I did yesterday...phew!. That should be it for me for this tourney.

    Thanks glitch but this one loses. Hope to continue my run at the next ATP tourney. I've got one player in the challenger in mind which may play very well at the next tournament...been watching him very closely. Stay tuned

    Liverpool/Man u DRAW +218 =DD

    Rooney starting off. Liv get up early, rooney comes on and equalises 1-1 FINAL. Bold predictions but these teams have had tight encounters in the past even when liverpool was struggling, particularly the last few seasons. They bring the goods when they play Man u.

    Adding: Liv/Man u under 2.5 -120

    Capping late games later.

    Don't think he will be able to do that in the final! He was outclassed and destroyed last week by Murray, hope he puts up a better show this time (which he could do as Murray doesnt seem so up for it).
