Matt's POD Picks

[matt1216]

I must say, this is the best I have seen Lopez in a long time..... I remember him losing to scrubs on this surface 2 years ago

[FlipsideRM]

Lopez just saved like 8 break points lol. I thought Cilic saving 6 last night was crazy

[matt1216]

OMG Raonic 0/9 in Game 5 of the 3rd set for break points. Ho Le Fukk... Somebody tie a brick to Raonic and Anderson and toss them into the Pacific.

Atleast it wasn't match points. Anderson can go sit on a cactus

[fitguy67]

the career-long 15-0 domination of federer over ferrer is truly remarkable, considering that the two players have seldom been more than a single-digit apart ATP-ranking wise the whole time...

the gap between the big three (Nadal, Djoker, Federer) and whoever is the latest version of #4 over this era has been bigger than the gap between #4 and #44...amazing

if #27 beats #7 nobody bats an eye...but if #7 beats #2...it's one of the year's major stories

You lost a handful of large plays last year so you had a good run there. Your not gonna turn 400 into 40k every year or probably ever again. You gotta slow grind this thing over the long term especially in tennis or you won't be around long term.

[Simon Gruber]

Dont tell Matt what he can't do!

It's been a couple of days since I have posted any plays. Instead of units I will post $.

11th Aug Cincinnati ATP:

- Chardy +1.5 sets 1.44 x 150$ to win 66$

- LU Y. ML 2.50 x 50$ to win 75$




I went with Chardy because he actually played well in Toronto. He lost to Tsonga but he easily could have won the first set.... Cincinnati is similar in court speed to Toronto. Chardy lost to Tsonga in close sets but I'm hoping he wasn't too hard on himself knowing Tsonga ended up winning the tournament. Kohlscriber has not played great recently on hardcourts... He's 0-2 vs Chardy head to head but this guy can play well when he wants to. I don't fully trust Chardy due to him screwing me many times in the past but I think he will play well here. I think this may go 3 sets.

I took LU Y ML because he played decent in Toronto. I think the fast court benifit a him as he likes to go for forehand winners a lot. Istomin is 2-0 vs LU Y but he didn't look great in Toronto. If Cilic didn't waste about 20 break point chances, Istomin would have lost in 2 sets. I also noticed Istomin was dealing with a bit of a shoulder issue recently... This is the second time in 21/2 months that the same injury has come up.

Feeling a little better about Dr Ivo now. Thanks.

Dude how much room do you have to talk about Matt when you're getting buried in your thread today? Lol

Good call on Lu.

I got trapped by the French once again myself.

The day is still young and I've built up enough wins to cushion a poor day like today.

I think Matt knows its all in jest and that his run of incredibly bad luck is quite amazing (ie: Sock 1st set today).

Yeah, my tiebreaker record is like 2-14 recently... Half of those losses from guys serving up 5-2. Brutal

[matt1216]

Adding:

- Janowicz ML 1.83 x 60$ to win 51$

everybody pounding Gabashvilli early, the line is drifting back to Janowicz. On this fast court all Jano needs to do is serve. We just need Jano to keep the unforced errors down a bit. Gabashvilli has a weaker serve, I think this match finally suits Jano.

Was thinking Jerzy boy as well, havent made it facebook official yet though

Good luck man. If he was playing another larger server I would lay off. Today, I believe it's a mismatch.

[matt1216]

Thanks man.... Yeah Chardy is very unreliable

[matt1216]

Thinking to pick Jano also but he looked like crap in Toronto

He did, but that was his first match on a fast hardcourt. These conditions are similar to Toronto. I'm hoping Jano was practicing up for this tournament ahead of time. @1.60 Jerzy is not worth the money... @1.80ish, I think it's worth a play

Verdasco 2nd set ML 1.71 x 70$ to win 50$ *live 0-0 2nd set
