Not a big fan of any of those picks bud. You can make a case for all of them of course. Roddick is really the only big underdog I think who has a shot. Bartoli just doesn't match up well with Zvonareva.

Here are my plays of the day:

Djokovic -238 (to win 4 units) PUSH
Bartoli +245 (laying 1/2 unit) LOSS

And for tomorrow I already took:

JM del Potro +365 (laying 2 units) LOSS

I have learned 2 valuable lessons:

1. Stop from capping WTA
2. Roddick as much as I hate him is doing well and should stop fading him.

I will discontinue to post picks in here, I have no more available balance to continue. I do not like to mix my earnings from other sports, therefore the balance I had for this tournament has vanished.

I know I will be better coming next tourney and will try to get back in shape.

Good Luck to the rest of you folks!! hit the books hard !!

My record for this terrible Aussie Open stands at: 12-19 -17.83

You had a tough late run there Sharky. Happens to us all. Only thing I offer up for Majors is that for me at least, I think being picky is a necessity. There's so many matches to choose from that you can get carried away with the volume of bets. Goes great when you're in the zone, goes south when you're not. You'll get 'em in the next one!

Thanks EP.

No doubt I will be more selective of my picks for next tourney ... I just got carried away capping WTA ... which I know is my worst area and went big on 2 favs ... that cost me this HUGE lump. But as u say ... it happens to the best of us.

GL finishing this tourney!
