Matts Tennis Thread 2nd Edition....

matt please explain the Mannarino play, unless you get some inside information i don't get it

Sousa has a serve that can be exposed, this bodes well for Mannarino. Mannarino plays alright against guys like Sousa ex) sock lopez. The diffrence sock and lopez both have serves that can win free points, Sousa dosnt have that in his bag of weapons. Despite the record Mannarino has played decent this year and I like him to win the rallies/ground game. The switch of courts should also help Mannarino early on

What doesn't bode well for him is his nationality.

+1

Mannarino is French, enough for me to stay away.

By the way, my boy Delbonis needs one game

[jessetk313]

Anyone on Gulbis today. I really was encouraged by his interview after his win against Tsonga. And only -260? I understand he has played a good deal of tennis lately and traveling but sometimes the best thing when you are hot is to keep playing.

[zec]

I think Gulbis will win but wouldn't be surprised if Lu retires so consider that when choosing a book. I think 5dimes would pay you if Gulbis won first set..

is reister a strong play? last leg of a parlay....

is reister a strong play? last leg of a parlay....

Watched him with bare eyes in a clay challenger in my hometown losing to a noname-come-one of the most promising youngsters in the tour (wont give his name, want my country to be anonymous

Also watched him several times via streams in hardcourts and clay, so I know his game pretty well.

He may win today as he lost to bigger names somewhat close matches previous weeks and Haider-Maurer is at least as shaky as Reister if not more + not in great form, but he is not someone I will trust enough to wager

BOL

[CallMeGENO]

thanks for response. i see reister has played some tough competition lately, but judging by my recent luck he will crash n burn.

[Hardcoar]

I think he wins, but I also think the odds reflect his chances fairly well.

[CallMeGENO]

went a lil tilty after the fucsovic match... need reister.

[kenz]

shitfest potential

hope you cash

[CallMeGENO]

0/1 break points.... promising!

[CallMeGENO]

[Hardcoar]

Yeah that's a good one!

[tipsadontlikehim]

[pokerwhiz90]

come on starace!

[DownTheLine]

I like Gonzo there, but ultimately decided to sit it out. Really see it going either way, both been in pretty lol form. Big moment late in this 1st set here. Starace serving 4-5 15-30.

[Cappinpicks]

how do u feel about Garbage Mug Line? losing again after choking to king

[Cappinpicks]

Thomaz Belluci x 60 units

[pokerwhiz90]

starace going 3 sets, just broke gonzo in the 2nd set lol

[Cappinpicks]

looks like mug can play a bit just needs to avoid bad service games

[Bumdeal]

how do u feel about Garbage Mug Line? losing again after choking to king

whenever one of my bets are losing you swoop in to mush the opposition and put me back in the winner's circle. where were you when golubev was losing to davydenko? I NEEDED YOU!

[DownTheLine]

Cappinpicks spreading disease to some of our picks, I don't like it

[pokerwhiz90]

starace up 4-2 in the 3rd set... just need 2 more games to close this one out

also you were right on about sousa struggling with his service game, mannarino is pushing him every time sousa's on serve

[Bumdeal]

i am reserving commentary until both matches conclude.

[Hardcoar]

Thomaz Belluci x 60 units

Units are supposed to be 0.5-2.0% of your bank-roll, and your bank-roll is supposed to be at least 100$.

[BigPage25]

Yeah starace!!! Let's go mari now!!!

[Marillion]

Thomaz Belluci x 60 units

Lol I can't stop laughing up loud.
Since I am on Belucci as well, if he turns it to 2-1, I will consider paying cappinpicks for tout services for the Guangzhou challenger.

Matt, sorry for offtopicing your thread, I just think this is the funniest post I've read here. : )

ed: while I am writing this, Belucci is doing the most horrible forehand ever

[pokerwhiz90]

freaking manni cant convert a single break point in teh 2nd set lol, guess this one is going 3 sets as well!
