-Flipside Tennis Picks-

[FlipsideRM]

just wondering why u need to contradict yourself all the time

I contradict myself all the time? Okay anyway, moving on...

[FlipsideRM]

Huge break back by dodig, Ernie was serving for set. Hope that can turn the tide here

[Cappinpicks]

damnnn figures ernie is the only obvious lock cant be all traps on terrible tuesday

[FlipsideRM]

Lol gulbis won a real close tie breaker. Ball bounces other way you wouldn't be saying anything. Coulda gone either way

[Cappinpicks]

Wrong. As i said before Gulbis had never won a set off dodig and he was in terrible form. 1.4 moneyline? Dodig trap.. which tons of people fell for.

ah was going based off rank and public perception dont think most looked at H2H... wasnt gulbis injured for awhile?

[Cappinpicks]

is there ANY damn site that shows public betting %? only true way of knowing what could be a trap

[FlipsideRM]

8/12: 1-1

Safarova +107 vs V. Williams
Dodig +170 vs Gulbis

Adding:

Sloane Stephens +120

[FlipsideRM]

Last one:

Paire -135 vs Johnson

[FlipsideRM]

Why I waste my time betting on Paire is beyond me, chokes away the first set now is being a mental case.

[kendy]

^ Send him to Rehab,damn!

[FlipsideRM]

8/12: 2-2 +.27 units

8/13:

Sam Querrey +130 vs Robredo

I know, I had the over 2.5 sets.... And Johnson hasn't been blowing anyone off the court lately.... The French are a waste of skin IMO. You see Benny today??? I had -1.5 sets, there was no reason why he couldn't win in two sets.

Yeah Paire is nuts, lost that first set and starts yelling at his racket, linesmen, crowd, throwing things, then just forces every shot in the 2nd set. I wish I coulda thrown my whole roll live on Johnson but no live line

[FlipsideRM]

8/13:

Sam Querrey +130 vs Robredo
Murray/Souza U19.5

I'd be very surprised if an extremely motivated murray who just lost to Tsonga doesn't blow Souza off the court. He only lost 10 total games in Australia in a 3 set sweep and that is what Souza would need to cover this bet. Murray also beat him 6-3 6-4 earlier in the year which would have also covered the spread.

I have been infected by the Matt thread so you should be good to go with these as I was leaning toward Robredo and while I agree Sousa is garbage U19.5 doesn't leave a whole lot of room for error. Conditions have been windy and I could see the whiny British bitch struggling (ala Joker) against an inferior opponent.

Robredo has been playing great and obviously has the experience so what makes you confident in Querry who has won ever other match this summer.

Interested to hear your thoughts.

Infected by the Matt thread?? What does that mean... I'm 9-4 on pre posted plays. No infections there

Karma/Infection. I was making light of your incredible run of bad luck and now I have lost 9 tiebreakers in a row. It has also spread to other sports as I had the D'Backs/Indians 1st 5 U4.5 and after 4 innings the score was 1-0 when the heavens opened up and caused a 4 hour rain delay which became a postponement and cancelled wager I was sure to win.

Love the Querrey play. Favorite surface, he's been so-so lately but I think this might be the tournament he makes a run before the open. Robredo has played a lot of tennis lately and if Jack Puke wasn't able to blow a 5-2 lead in the tie break ole' robredo might not even be here. I think he'll be too much for the old man tomorrow, and I know I'm in the minority on that so thats a plus for me.

Murray will absolutely eat Souza alive, Souza almost lost to the young kid Buchanan, and should have if Buchanan could have served the match out twice in the 3rd set and once in the breaker. It took 3 sets at the Australian open for Souza to barely cover a 19.5 spread, why would he be able to cover tomorrow against Murray who will be motivated as hell after losing in the quarter final to Tsonga. He'll make a deep run this tournament. I expect 6-3 6-2. Souza was getting broken left and right by Buchanan, one of the best returners in the game should have no problem

I like the Murray/Sousa logic. Sousa is hot garbage and I was on Buchanan early. No game props up on 5D or BMKR so I'll have to look for that in the morning.

I won nicely with Querry the other night but I'm still on the fence with that one. Robredo is 2-0 H2H, playing great, only played 3 matches last week (not THAT much tennis) and had only one challenging set against the ailing Sock.

Robredo played a final in Umag 2 weeks ago, 3 matches, including an epic 3 setter vs Grigor in Toronto, and that breaker vs Jack Sock. This is one I had circled when the draws came out. Robredo is taking a lot of public bets, which makes me like it even more. I'll take the younger American over the older 32 year old Robredo who's played a lot of tennis. This is the same logic I used with Safarova over Venus today and I like it once again at + money.

Plus that head2head you mention was over 3.5 years ago. Remember that Venus was 4-0 vs Safarova today but Fatigue outweighs past results. Not trying to talk you out of your bet just explaining my side of things

Ahh i c, well I hope u turn it around soon. I know u can and will

9-4!? Wow, that's a lot better than the impression I got, I have to admit.

Congrat's and keep making money!!

[tb1984]

Flip, I checked your bets and did not see one with spread(e.g Dodig +3 games). You don't like them or your book does not have them?

Book does not offer them. Youwager is kind of a crap book for tennis. But they pay fast and have been good to me so can't complain

[FlipsideRM]

Easy 6-3 6-3 win for murray.

1-0 on the day

Querrey +130 pending

[Vinnie Paz]

Have any read on isner match? 2-0 isner worth it?

[FlipsideRM]

I highly doubt hel drop a set to matosevic but I can't advocate making a play on it. Odds are he should win 2-0. I just don't like touching isner matches due to all the tie breaks unless I have a good read on his opponent.

[FlipsideRM]

Well querrey shit the bed, might be the last time I ever back him. Props to robredo.

Adding : Hewitt +113 vs fognini

[FlipsideRM]

Well Hewitt getting absolutely obliterated. Looking at 1-2 for the day unless a big turn around

His serve has been broken 3 times already. Jebus Christmas.

Yep. Maybe he can get something going in the 2nd and force a 3rd.

[SSVIR]

His serve has been broken 3 times already. Jebus Christmas.

Broken 6 times and still in the 2nd set.

This match is hilarious. Fognini serving for the match gets broken at love and tops it off with a double fault.

Back on *cough cough* "serve" at 5-4.

... and Hewitt gets broken for the 7th time to lose the match.

[pattymayo]

You guys must drive yourself nuts with the constant commentary on these matches
