How come no one's posting tennis picks??

Way to take the bull by the horns buddy.

Honestly I haven't gotten my juices flowing with tennis much lately, French Open, Artois, Nottingham etc all those, then a long Wimbledon burned me out somewhat mentally.

Today was one hell of a dog day afternoon. I was THIS CLOSE to fading Mardy Fish.

Thanks for the big parlay winner crazy

Glad you cashed in.

I was surprised a number of people actually decided to follow along that one, just happy it went as planned. Makes me feel better seeing others make money on it than winning it myself.

I think people ain't betting on these shitty tournaments because they're such a fix. Every big seed is falling. Also, I don't know why the hell some of them are on clay, grass and hard courts, even though the US Open is coming up on a hardcourt. What's the point of these tournaments

Lost my

yesterday after winning big last weekend. The small tournaments are hard to get right, that's for sure. I only bet on boxing and tennis and sometimes, that's just not enough.

I must say I am in the same boat. There past 3 days have been ridiculous, every possible bit of logic involved in one of these tournaments have gone out the window.

New rules: never bet clay

I'll stick to the US Open Series, people at least try their best there and the draw isn't made of shady fringe players and clay specialists.

Even though I said I wouldn't, I put some money on today's tennis in the hope of winning back yesterday's losses.

Nieminen won.
Del Potro won.
Chardy won.
Kohslchreiber won.
Kiefer's game was cancelled.

Won back every penny I lost yesreday, with added profit. I give up on tennis betting now until the US Open.

I think there is a letdown after the majors and some top players pulled out. I think we see more selective betting.
