Good luck, querry has been on fire same with Woz

Chris L · 10-04-13, 02:50 AM

Thanks! I agree they both have been on fire, but I think it stops here. The one that worries me the most would be Djokovic.

Serena has only dropped 3 sets in the last 25 matches! 2 of those sets were from Azarenka.

So you measure your success in terms of how many bets you've won and lost respectively?

No, but I thought I would do it on here. I figured it would give people a little more confidence in tailing my picks with a Win-Loss record, rather than units won or loss.

Someone can have a Win-Loss record of 1-10 and be down -10 Units, then win 11 Units on one pick and have a +1 Unit record which I find misleading.

Well congrat's on your win and best of luck!

Dodig didn't put up much of a fight after that first set. I was hoping he could pull off the first set tie break, but he tanked. Sorry to anyone who tailed.

Straight Record: 0-1

Nadal was leading Berdych 4-2 in the first set, but Berdych retired so the Nadal part of the parlay was cancelled. Serena beat Radwanska easily 6-2 6-2. I'm going to count this as a straight pick win since the Nadal part was cancelled and there is only one pick in the parlay that won.

Straight Record: 1-1

Nadal didn't have a chance. The parlay lost because Djokovic won in straight sets. Sorry to any who tailed.

Got buried today..... Parlay lost because of Gasquet. Kohlschreiber had a horrible performence against a +700 ranked player. He was one game away from getting us a push and didn't pull it off. Sorry to any who tailed. Hope to get back to a winning record this week.

P.S. - I killed it last week in College Football, check out the thread and look for my picks later this week.

I think it's time to take a break from tennis for a little while and focus on football and the upcoming basketball season. Tennis is played horrible around this time of year and players are just drained.

Haas withdrew before the match started so the play was cancelled. We were one game away from winning both the Djokovic and Nadal picks which turned a winning day into a losing one.

I'll be back probably around the Shanghai Finals and then wait until the Paris tournament to make some picks.

Check out my College football thread and look out for my soccer, basketball, and NFL threads in the future.

Straight Record: 4-8
