Matts Tennis Thread 2nd Edition....

[matt1216]

it's early on. I've actually picked a lot dogs that I should have not picked. I guess I was due for a thrashing. Common stosur.

[ClutchOnandWin]

I'm liking your new approach to betting and posting a whole lot, Clutches.

New approach? lol

Dude, I am sounding like a defeatist here, what are you talking about? All I'm saying is it's more important to be a good gambler than be good at understanding a particular sport. As shown in the last few days, had me and matt hedged our bets we'd be up significantly, he;s still up but he and you get what I mean. Anyway. Backed Patricka Mayr, she's up a break against Annika, you should fade that play of mine. lol

[matt1216]

Mahut won 2 grasscourt atp titles, a challenger title and reached the final of the doubles at rolland garros. He had a very good year. Chardy has been fannying around for ages and is a mindless ballbasher. The bookies are respecting his unpredictability to play sensational tennis after he upset Del Potro in 5 sets at a slam.

I liked Mahuts work ethic in most of his matches. I thought he would grind out a win... I guess Chardy showed up.

I'm going to be a little more selective starting tomorrow. Had I done some digging on hewitt I would have definately taken him

Hardcoar makes a ton of picks as well... I think he was just enjoying my amount of picks I've thrown up. Nothing more.

Nah. You did nothing wrong. Don;t change your ethos or mindset and be swayed by what the bookie or public thinks. Sometimes you'll pick a favourite, they'll outplay their opponent and choke a lead to lose. It's the same for underdogs too, but because they started as underdogs, you say that's the reason they couldn't close out the match. Nah, continue following on from what you think will happen. As long as you are "right" in what you're thinking.

Harcoar finished the sentence with "clutches"? Thought the remark was at me, sorry, nvm. lol

Yeah, that's true. I have been super unlucky. We shall see what happens.

Yeah, Hewitt in Australia is different, because he loves the big stage. Remember DelPotro US Open last year? Plus Hewitt recently mentioned recovering from playing through injuries last season.

[addictedto]

Today's best underdog is Groth. He is able and has the weapons to outplay Anderson who was so mediocre at the end of last season. Hope he is still the same and Groth makes another big upset in front of his crowd. Over games is also expected with such serving.

[matt1216]

game on need stosur first set

[ClutchOnandWin]

Gotta say matt, I know you are taking "value", but I just can't see Stosur beating Radwanska even if Radwanska is one to struggle with heavy topspin. Too intelligent on a tennis court for Sam.

[chs13021986]

Another loss ahead. Unfortunately

[matt1216]

I wonder if Stosur "beats" Tomic! Haha she's clearly larger than him

[matt1216]

Another loss ahead. Unfortunately

Stop being so negative.

[matt1216]

Stosur hanging in there, playing well actually

[Hardcoar]

I agree. You for some reason fail to mention Groth has been f*cking shit up in his latest matches.

Harcoar finished the sentence with "clutches"? Thought the remark was at me, sorry, nvm. lol

It was. I liked how you stopped bitching and moved on, both with regards to tennis betting and forum posting.

[matt1216]

Wow Milos Stour serving her way out of trouble

[ClutchOnandWin]

Brawn vs Brain.

Cover on this inviteable choke Matt.

[matt1216]

Brawn vs Brain.

Cover on this inviteable choke Matt.

I have Stosur 1st set 2.50. That's all I need

[ClutchOnandWin]

Exactly cover @7.00 or whatever.

[ClutchOnandWin]

Good hit.

[matt1216]

WTA Play 2nd Jan 2014:

Stosur 1st set Ml 2.50 x 2 units



Good luck

Finally I didn't get screwed. Won all 3 of my 1st setters today

[matt1216]

Good hit.

Thanks man, been some bad beats today

[ClutchOnandWin]

Gulbis should make a fist of Nadal I'd imagine. Does so on clay, should certainly do so on hardcourt. Has the backhand to deal with Nadal's excessive topspin.

Getting a set @2.00 is interesting.

[ClutchOnandWin]

Annika Beck coming back against Mayr-Acheleinter.

Gulbis to win. He plays to his opponent level all the time. Not sure why nadal is hanging in Doha at this point

[matt1216]

Lol, I know what u mean, I was mad I didn't take him @ 4.00 but I had my sources. He's was gonna withdraw or hobble around. I'll take Bhambri @2.80 with a 40% chance of beating a injured Foggs

Forgot to post it but my Bhambri play is in effect for 2 units. I was talking about it for 2 days. Hope he gets lucky

[matt1216]

Bhambri up 3-1 hopefully Foggs shows the people of Chennai some respect and just plays this out a bit

[matt1216]

stosur 2nd set live 2.55 x .5 unit

[khas_il]

Fognini just wants to get out of there

[matt1216]
