    Ok dude I don't know you at all, and because you're brand new here, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. You joined the forum when Matt just happens to be in the biggest funk with his tennis picks. He absolutely killed it during the hard court season and made many of us a LOT of money. At one time he was without a doubt the sharpest tennis capper here, and it seemed like he could never lose when he was on his amazing hot streak. You can ask anyone in this sub forum and they'll tell you he's a good capper who knows his shit when it comes to tennis. Now I was away for several weeks because my wife and I just had our first baby a couple months ago, so I don't know what all went on while I was gone. I know Matt has started several different threads because he was trying to separate his personal picks with what he called 'trend picks,' and many people jumped on him for having multiple threads and all. I honestly don't know what some people have against him, as he's done nothing but contribute to this forum and help us win money since he's been here. Yes he's in a bad funk right now, but I know he'll turn it around soon enough. These aren't 'random sh#t picks,' and it's pretty messed up you would call someone 'pollution' when you don't even know him or his history here. I see in several threads and other sub forums you've already rubbed people the wrong way with your arrogance and cockiness, and that's certainly not a good way to start out, especially if you start trolling other people's threads and shitting on them when they're down. The last thing we need or want is more negativity or 'my rooster is bigger than yours' bullshit.

    Having said that, you seem like an honest guy who might know a thing or two and actually contribute something to this forum, which would be good. That is why I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt, because you are new and wouldn't know anyone here or their history. You are definitely confident and brimming with arrogance, which typically isn't bad in itself (especially if you're posting winning plays) until you start treating everyone else in a condescending manner, which you've already begun doing. Those of us that are normal and not trolls or negative assholes come here to discuss sports that we love, and how to make money wagering on them, which we love even more. You'll see soon enough that we in the tennis forum (for the most part) represent the refined gentlemen, where we all try and help each other win money while abstaining from trying to compete with each other and making fun of people when they're down. I would urge you to do the same, and post picks in your thread while refraining from trolling other people's threads with negativity, especially if it's unwarranted. If you keep that attitude and respect everyone here, even try to help those that are in funks, you'll gain a lot of respect yourself, not to mention many friends indeed.

    Good luck to you with everything, and I look forward to intellectual conversations with you regarding tennis and other sports! I hope you take this to heart and become one of the sharper guys in the forum that isn't trolling and always has something good to say while helping others. Remember, we're all in this together to help each other beat the books and make some money, and the more we help and the better we treat each other, the easier this process becomes! Looking forward to thoughts and picks for tomorrow friend!
    Well put!

    And grats on your baby Semper

      Seems like Nguyen comfortably on top of the list for the least liked guy here in a matter of days. Grats

      I know you are a "winner" Nguyen and not interested to be liked -you may see that as a "weakness"- but I would try to surround myself with good karma. Because there will be a time when you will be on a big losing streak too and the last thing you want is people bashing you. And you gave the right to do so to a dozen daily posters. Either never lose or be prepared for bloodbath. BOL in your plays

              2. Lopez ML Odds 1.69 x 2 units

                    Yes I usually just smash my head into a glass door if I have some real shocking plays so a few jibes on the net won't hit that hard.
                    But fair point about the karma.

                    I'm pretty sure tipping a few juicy winners for people to feast on will smooth the waters anyway.

                      Thanks guys, being a father is more amazing than I ever imagined it could be, and it gets better every day! It's like I wake up every morning and fall in love with her all over again, and it certainly makes me forget about the small stuff. Before her it seemed like the smallest things could upset me at times, especially losing wagers lol. But now I'm more relaxed and carefree than I've ever been in my life because I realize it doesn't matter what happens in this world, I'll always be fine as long as I have my beautiful wife and our sweet little baby girl. I could lose my entire roll on a horrible streak of bad wagers, or all my material belongings like my house and car - none of that matters when you realize you already have everything that truly makes you happy. I don't know if any of you have any kids or not, but absolutely nothing can compare to the overwhelming feeling of your heart melting seeing your little baby smile at you. Shit gets me every time man, I could be having a bad day and come home from work and it all disappears when I see her smile and laugh at me. Being more laid back has also helped me with my sports betting - I've made more money these past few months than ever before, I suppose because I'm not treating it as seriously as before since it doesn't matter as much as it used to. It has allowed me to keep my head clear and make better wagers knowing I don't have the pressure and stress of trying to be perfect and winning as much as possible. It's amazing how having a different mindset like that can help you in every area of your life. I apologize for the long rant, I could go on forever about my little girl and how much happiness she's brought to our lives. Moral of the story is if you don't have kids yet then you need to have one soon, I highly recommend it! It'll make you a better sports gambler (lol), not to mention a better person!

                      Looking forward to insight on tomorrow's matches - the only one I love right now for sure is Zheng and possibly Lopez. Lets all have a great weekend of wagers and build a nice little roll to use for Wimbledon!

                        Hey Semper, I'm really happy for you. You seemed like a very proud father, good on you. It's weird sometimes when you step back, take a day or two off and look at what really matters, family. Some may not have family's, you just have to find what puts you at peace. I'm sure that will help make wiser decisions and more selective wagers in the future.


                        Again, congrats bud!

                          2 Wagers for the morning:

                          2. Zhang ML + Keys +1.5 sets Odds 2.75 x 2 units

                          3. Becker ML Odds 2.50 x 1.5 units


                          I like Zheng, she's been on fire. I think Coco didn't have nearly as difficult of a time as Zhang yet she destroyed her opponents.

                          Keys has played great... While she has won many matches I'm worried this is more of a 50/50 match as both can be very inconsistant at times. I've noticed this a lot in Kerber. Let's hope for Keys to steal a set here.


                          Becker, well he's older now, this may be his last ATP 250 title, ever. I'm sure he's gonna bring it tomorrow. Almost everybody on oddsportal and Tennis insight is on Agut... And I'm sure 80% of the public is as well. I think Becker pulls the upset, and then disappears for the year.

                              Surprised you didn't wait Matt. The odds on Becker will only grow longer imo.

                                  A bit unlucky this morning. Becker had the match but blew it after the tie breaker. Zheng, I'm not sure what happened there.

                                  2. Cecchinato ML Odds 2.00 x 2 units

                                  most will be on Ramos because of his name. Hopefully he's not too motivate here. Cecchinato is a solid clay player

                                                            Actually buddy, I already earned my bachelors degree in English from the University of Georgia a few years ago, and just recently started on my Masters program. But stereotyping is ok - about what I expected from a dumbass too stupid to get into college (aka troll douches), and because of this lack of intelligence and how it makes them feel about themselves and their lives, have nothing better to do than try and bring others down and spread negativity. I'm sorry I'm not completely qualified and licensed yet, but once I finish my Masters and officially become a therapist I know that in addition to helping combat veterans deal with their own issues, I'll probably be seeing people like you. This is actually quite amusing, I wonder if i can count any dealings with you and the other trolls as experience towards my intern clinical hours? I knew something good had to come out of our associations with the negative assholes on this forum! Don't worry friend, I'll be sure you get whatever help you need!
