Fognini ML. Sock ML although I believe sock and lajovic will go over 3.5 sets or the total. I didn't like the way Monfilis played the other day. Fognini should be able to carve him up a bit. Struff had 8 set points

**matt1216** · 05-30-14, 11:47 PM

sock played Good, not great but good

Might be a smart idea to go back a previous page that may answer your question.

Early days Matt.

I said the same about Pauline yesterday after she lost the first set 6-1 and looked as though she had no flapping hope.

Nevermind, Monfils is tanking the 4th set, It's SOO obvious, he should be fined for letting that ball hit a FOOT inside the baseline right in front of him. He just let it go, didn't care, hurrying to get to the fifth set. Tanking is fine, but letting balls bounce in front of you and just watching it??? That is beyond tanking, lol.. Easy over now...

VAMOS SSE!!!

I feel gasquet holds about a 60/40 edge here. Verdasco had a gruelling match the other day... I don't gasquet is a bad as he's letting off to be.

**matt1216** · 05-31-14, 11:09 AM

**Hardcoar** · 05-31-14, 11:30 AM

Yeah it is... Public playing his injury and jumping on verdasco

**Hardcoar** · 05-31-14, 11:43 AM

I mean considering your 60/40 edge.

Anyway, if I were to make a Gasquet-favored bet, it would be for the first set, or 2:nd were the bet in play.

Do you think gasquet will get tired? Remember it will most likely be suspended half way through.

**Hardcoar** · 05-31-14, 12:22 PM

Yes, I think he might. I also think Verdasco loves dropping early sets.

Good point, I did not consider that.

My prediction: Verdasco in five.

Gasquet in 4 sets is my prediction, good luck

**brodie** · 05-31-14, 12:41 PM

oh boy matts dropping double digit units again... my lean was verdasco but im not touching this match

Statistically speaking yours is more likely... I just have this feeling, hehe.

**Vinnie Paz** · 05-31-14, 12:56 PM

They are getting warmed up right now, and the ref is introducing 'em. Looks like they will go for a set then postpone for tomorrow. Why dont frenchies have lights at Chatrier? It would be so fun to watch a night match.

**matt1216** · 05-31-14, 01:07 PM

Why the fck do people have an issue with dropping double digit units??? Seriously, the tickets are all there.

am i "people"? hmm never said i had a problem with you dropping double digit units, i just said "oh boy" as in "here we go again"... whether you were actually playing your double digit unit bets or not i have no idea, but i do recall your other thread going downhill pretty fast when you started to get ridiculous with the units, just saying.

do your thing bro, you dont always have to be so defensive especially against someone like me who is usually on your side when people try to shit down your throat

edit: just saw JC came at your neck. so that was probably more directed towards him, if so feel free to ignore me

I can only say this based on what went down when I first started my thread... I was pretty naive about the trickery that goes on at SBR with people changing their tickets to make it look like they bet more than they did. My units were always the same $200 so when I'd increase them even a bit (I never make 10+ unit bets as I strictly follow 2-3% max of my bankroll) I'd be asked for proof. Fair enough as if someone's going to follow you they want to know that at least you're confident enough to wager the $ on a play that you say you are. However with the tickets you're posting, you could be betting $10 for all anyone knows. It's not a screenshot so all it'd take would be changing the amounts before you post. Even with screenshots there was a thread with a notorious Tennis Forum poster named TennisBabe who not only pretended to be a chick but was also fudging screenshots all the time (side note - I suspect he's back, maybe even in this thread). It's very easy for me to go to my betting page, use a javascript thingie and make it look like I have a balance of $50k and bet $2000 on a play when really it was only $200 or even $2.

The fact you admitted to fudging units and not betting plays you posted has ruined your credibility and it's going to take a long time for that to come back. The SBR Tennis Forum is a small community as you know and they never forget. It's not an issue with you "dropping double digit units"... it's that you went from betting maybe 2 units max at the start of this thread to suddenly ramping it up to 6 - 14 fricken units in the past day or two and making several plays a day in a thread you titled "few and far between". How in the holy hell could any trend suddenly suggest you bet 7x what your max bet was just a week ago?! People pick up on that stuff. Just do your own thing whether you're betting $5 or $500 but look at it from the other side too. There are plenty of ongoing threads with varying degrees of success that have zero drama at all, even on losing days. You dug yourself a hole and you're an action junkie unless you're going to tell me these plays are all trends so just own it, post your plays and move it along! If I had done the same you know the entire forum would be clowning me for the next two years... that's just how it goes. GL with your bets and don't take it all so personally!

**matt1216** · 05-31-14, 06:11 PM

shari91, they may sound stupid but how do I properly screenshot something, then post it too the forum? I rather show everybody that everything is legit.

For or your answer on the unit sizes, I hit a decent streak that helped raise my account balance. I have roughly a 8% ROI in baseball, easily my favorite sport. That's well over 200 matches as well
