Fuk it! Ferrero is done. Just got broke at 4-4 in second. What a crappy display by Ferrero. And he took out Anderson, Monfils, and pushed Fed to 3 hard sets??? Whatever.... Stupid me to think he could play the same a few days later. Pathetic......

[Dmoneytx]

WOW, Gator!! You put the jinx on Haase!! Ferrero back in this set and the match! OMG. Haase double faulted to lose his serve, lets HOPE he starts to go mental a bit!!

[gators0708]

Lets go JCF!

[Dmoneytx]

OMG!!! My girl called me outside and JCF was down 3-4 in breaker & when I just got back in right now, Ferrero pulled out the breaker 8-6??!! HELL YA!!! THIS is where Ferrero needs to hammer Haase into the dirt! Haase choked that service game for the match & he was leading the whole way in the breaker on serve & still couldn't pull out the match. I hope Ferrero keeps fighting hard!!! He should be fired up!!! Vamos!

And regardless of how this goes, THANKS Gator for throwing the jinx on Haase. I hope he freaking goes down in flames this third set!!!

[gators0708]

Yesssirrr, lets hope JCF keeps it up now after saving a MP!

[gators0708]

Wow after being up a break now 3-3. It's never easy

[ParlayininHTown]

Cash your bets, fellas

[gators0708]

Wow, good comeback! I would have been sooo pissed if he lost that match but a win is a win. Congrats Dmoney lets keep it going!

[gators0708]

Cash your bets, fellas

Made up for Donald Young haha!

[Dmoneytx]

THE MOSQUITO got himself a big catch today!!! Ferrero would NOT quit! He kept biting & biting & biting at Haase unitl he couldn't stand it any longer & had to run for cover! LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I came back to that match for the last 4 freaking hours it seemed like!!!! I couldn't stand to watch & my gut told me it was gonna be a freaking 3 hour marathon, I just couldn't stomach it. Everytime I went to the computer, it was freaking 30-30. I do give Haase credit for going this long against a proven clay court specialist. But this is EXACTLY why I have Haase on my black list for clay & he is prob gonna go on my hard court list pretty soon. Haase was serving for the match at 6-4, 5-4 & choked!! Double fault to lose the game is choking, I play alot of tennis at a high level & that is definetly a choke to double to send the match to 5-5 in ANY set! Then he leads the whole way up in the first tiebreaker & even had match point. The MOSQUITO kept biting!!! To finish in a third set breaker was SICK!!! The first update I had in that final set breaker was 6-6, LMAO!!! I was expecting 18-16 finish, but came back 1 min later to see the MOSQUITO took his final bite out of Haase & sent him home all swollen and disappointed. VAMOS MOSQUITO!!!

This made the difference of me being up a unit today (would of been a PERFECT day if Big Sam didn't gag on his own sausage today, mother fer) or being down 2 units. I am very happy to put a few back to back winning days again. I will update todays record & overall in a bit.

Special PROPS to Gator!!! He threw the jinx on dumb azz Haase when he was serving for the match!!! Gotta love the jinx baby!!!
And thanks Parlayin!! I hope to keep the last few days of winning charging ahead. Time to get into another long streak of winning days! Hope your day went well brotha

Gator, lets CASH this biotch!!!

[Dmoneytx]

Congrats to you as well Gator! Thanks for sweating this match out with me. Was it just me.....or did this match 'feel' like it took 5 hours??? LOL!!! I am going to get my plays up early tonight, comment on anything late late tonight or early morning if you want. Thanks for all the support

5 hrs may be a little to short lol, it literally felt like Isner Mahut haha. Now some time to relax before the heat go to work!

[Dmoneytx]

Update for Yesterdays Pending Play: Well, Medina got thru her match yest & although it went three sets, she blew her opponent out in the thrid. So, we were waiting for Big Sam to play Little Kukishkin this morning to cash this ticket. Would of been a great way to start the day, but Big Sam absolutely sucked in the first set! I really thought with Sam going thru qualies this week, winning matches already, and having a good run of winning matches the last few months, that he would REALLY be giving Kukush all he could handle! Instead, the guy I saw play live, who has NO big weapons at all, takes down Sam 6-2 in the first set! I was kind of shocked! Then in the second, OMG, Querrey had SO many break chances early on, 2 or 3 at least and couldn't win one damn break point! Even at 5-4 in the second, he got Kukush to deuce & had advantage like THREE times! Kukush held & then the very next game, Sam starts gaging on his own sausage and gets broke! Well, after freaking half a dozen chances to take the break & MOST likely serve out the set to go 3, of COURSE he was gonna get broken. He even had chances when he was down 5-6 in the second set and blew 2 break points I think. So it just goes to show ya, that when you have opportunities, you HAVE to seize them! If you don't, they usually end up kicking you in the ass. This is why the top pros are so good. They rarely waste the opportunities that these other players waste. All in all, a big dissapointment in my eyes. I knew Sam is not a clay court player, but if he can't beat an average Kukush, then he will do nothing on clay for prob the rest of his career.
Yesterdays Pending Play = LOSS

[Dmoneytx]

True dat Gator!!! Just seemed like an all day match..........wait....it was!!! LOL

I am pumped for the Heat tonight bec I feel like I pulled one out of my arsss just now. I have to go to my cappers threads & see what they are pushing hard for. Some of these cappers over there are freaking ROCK solid. I have Autism kids all night to finish my tennis lessons, so I have to record the basketball. I won't be able to watch it unitl I put my kiddos to bed around 8:30 to 9. But when I do, I'm gonna light the fattie & enjoy the game

Gonna go fairly big I think, just don't know what yet. BOL to you tonight sir, hope you do well!!!

[gators0708]

U 2 goodluck!

[Optional]

Just looked at score and wondering if you were a bit hard on Hasse DM?! 6 games in each set and 6 points in each tiebreaker looks pretty damn competitive on the box score.

I tend to keep an eye on him for value spots. Had opinion he is quite reliable and often a good dog bet against someone ranked higher but out of form or off surface.

Had a little think about him at +150 here too.

[Dmoneytx]

Play #1 - CASH IT

Brands played a fairly tight match. I couldn't get a live score on this match or any match stats, but I know the scoreline was 6-4, 7-6 I believe. I am glad he got the break in the first set, bec that prob gave him much more confidence! He is NOT a good returner, so the break was huge. Then the tiebreaker I was NOT surprised to see, but I am very glad he pulled that breaker out to end the match in 2 sets. Brands onto the next round of qualies.
Cervantes was also playing qualies at the French Open. So again, no live scores or match stats. His match looked ALOT closer than what I was expecting. He got through the first set in a breaker 7-4. Then he took it too Seifert in the second and won it 6-2. That sets sounds closer to what I thought the score would be, but I will take it!!

[Dmoneytx]

No Opti, you are defintely right sir! I gave him props in one of my posts right after the match. I said I was impressed he went this long & this competitive against a proven clay court specialist. Oh man, he played a HELL of a match!!! Either tiebreaker could of went either way, EASY! Most of me bashing Haase is bec of personal reasons. He has fukked me SEVERAL times in a match where he was a good good favorite and lost horribly, like straight set horribly.
Actually, as a slight dog, he might be worth a shot here and there. As a BIG favorite, I would rather bet the my cat Yugi has a better chance to win me some money fighting the other cat next door for rights to eat all the bluejays in my yard. So I do agree with what you said for sure. He played his freaking ARSS off today. I just knew at SOME point that the choker Haase was gonna come out and play. I guess the break at 5-4 in the second was his only bad game. I know he got broke at 1-1 in the third, but he got in back at 3-2 to go back on serve.
I said that earlier before the match on the write up that this is JUST as much personal as it was logical.

[Dmoneytx]

Play #2 - CASH IT

Cervantes was explained in Play #1- CASH IT. He won in straights.
Ferrero has been written up for the last half dozen posts or so. Amazing match, amazing finish!!! Ferrero EASILY gets thru Haase 4-6, 7-6, 7-6. LOL. Easy??? Ya right!!! But I will take it for sure!

[Dmoneytx]

Play #3 - CASH IT

Ferrero pulled it out of thin air. Little chokey by Haase & an AMAZING effort by Juan Carlos "THE MOSQUITO" & Ferrero wins in third set breaker. VAMOS JCF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Dmoneytx]

***Special shout out to JCF! Match made me crap my pants several times over! LOL, but great win for The Mosquito.
Also to Cervantes, my man whom I know little about, LOL! Just know he is playing good clay tennis right now. He did win a close first set & easily won in 2 sets. My play of the day was closer than I wanted, but he did take care of buss.

I will prob put plays out earlier tonight, pls feel free to stop by with any comments, opinions or advice. I alwasy welcome the help from other players, always! I hope to keep the last few winnings days going. As always, BOL to ev1 else tonight in other sports!!!

[Optional]

Look at who I'm trying to argue with

Have you looked at the early matches in Nice? Worrying myself that every match looks like an easy take for the fave. (well not Monfils. I won't back him at that price)

Isner price is moving fast the wrong way.

[Dmoneytx]

Today Record 5/22:

Parlays (2-1) +0.61 units
Straights (1-0) +0.33 units


Total (3-1) +0.94 units

[Dmoneytx]

Overall Record as of 5/22:

Parlays (39-30) -2.07units
Straights (5-6) -1.51 units

Total = (44-36) -3.57 units
Total Win % = 55.1%

[Dmoneytx]

I agree Opti! I will NOT back Monfils at his price. Hell no! And fading Isner might be a good idea. One break and he's done for the set. Prob see a breaker or too on his first match. I noticed his line was dropping also. Ya, sometimes when it looks like all the favs can or should win, something doesn't go as planned. Have to really question the heart of some of these guys to push HARD this week, knowing that they are gonna need everything they have to push HARD for the French Open next week. Its kind of like gambling the last few days of the nba season where teams are getting ready for the playoffs. We will just have to be very selective of who we take and why........

[Optional]

Ah... decided to grab Isner before it got worse. And before I see this. Oh well, cross fingers he doesn't get broken for me

[Mercersux]

CASH IT !!!!! Good job Today Dmoney. getting your groove back.

[ParlayininHTown]

Monfils, Simon, Isner and Almagro could all lose tomorrow if they're looking ahead to next week. It's going to be an interesting day to see who is actually interested in advancing in this tournament.

[Dmoneytx]

Thanks Mercer!! Hoping for a good day tomm sir
BOL tonight if u play anything!

[Dmoneytx]

I agree Parlayin. Without a doubt several of those players could lose tomm. I am keeping an eye on the same thing. I am VERY curious to who ships it in early....

[Mercersux]

Not much for tennis today that im really liking. Parlay definitely hit it on the nose saying there should be a couple upsets today but just cant figure out who it could be. An Almagro lose would pay out some decent money. Might take a small flyer out on him.

Write Up for Play #1:

I looked at alot of matches for today & I wasn't sold on some of the ATP matches. I can definetly see some of the big favs today go down in Nice, looking ahead to get rest for the French. I am just not sure on the pure effort level and if they are going to go all out and give 110%. My gut says no. So, I thought there was more motivation in qualies for the French. These players are hungry to win & are giving everything they have just to try to get a main draw entry (big prize money even for 1st round loss). So rather than go on a big fav in Nice, where if they get down they might just fold up shop & kind of blow off the loss, I went with players who are HOT right now & are motivated to give 110% the entire match.
Petrova is playing the second round in Belgium. She is unseeded & beat Bonderenko 4&4 last round. She lost to Serena last tment, playing her tough in 3 sets and Ivanovic the tment before that in a close 2 setter. Petrova is solid and if she has time to set up those big groundies, she can do some damage with this weak draw. Her opponent I am pretty much betting against here. Pironkova did beat Dandillou in the first round 1&4 I think. But Dandil has NOT had a good year at all, fairly weak actually. So that win doesn't tell me a whole lot. The tment before, she got blown off the court by King 0&1. The tment before that, she got blown off the court first round again by Mendina 2&0. The tment before that she won the first set off Tatashvili in the first round & then got blown out bad 2&1 the remaining sets. So with the exception of beating a struggling, weak Dandillou in my eyes, she has been in POOR form the last month & I can't see how on earth she beats a rock solid steady player with big groundies like Petrova today. I look for Petrova to move into the third round.
Goffin is a hot player right now who is in great form. He has almost 25 wins this year. He alternates between Challangers and the ATP. He has a solid game & should be playing with a good deal of confidence. He wiped out Burquier 2&2 first round. He lost his last 2 tments to Rosol (who was playing really good in that stretch), both in close 3 setters. Goffin will win a high % of first serves & is a solid returner. He should have a good amount of breaks to look at. His opponent Vagnozzi is playing decent this year. With a 8-12 record, he seems to beat the lower players, all be it fairly close at times, and loses to the better Challanger players. He lost his last two tments to Rufin & DeVeigy both playing one close set & the other being not so close. He did beat Galung first round here, but he has NOT been in good form at all this year. Vagnozzi is not a big server at all & usually wins only around 50% of his first serve points. That definetly favors Goffin today bigtime & he will need to bring his best game today overall to even have a shot I would think, of pushing Goffin today. I look for Goffin to take care of serve & get a few breaks to move forward in qualies.
DelBonis is a player that is tranistioning into the ATP more full time now. He has had a GOOD year so far with almost 30 wins this year!!! He went thru qualies at Madrid, BEAT Ramos, A and then lost a super close 3 setter to Tipsarevic. The tment before that he went thru qualies and lost two breakers to Anderson in second round. Those were ATP events & he is a big serving lefty with great groundies. He usually wins a high % of his first serves & his seconds. He will be extra motivated to win this match & be one step closer to the main draw at the French. His opponent Grigelis, is not having a good year. He is 8-12 & did beat a Gonazalez M in the first round in a close 3 setter, but Gonzalez has not had a good year either at all. The last tment he made the third round, but beat 2 players who are NO where near the caliber of DelBonis. He lost to Beck K in a close 3 setter. He has actually done better in doubles in the Challangers in the last month or so than in singles. He lost to Authom & Kuntnetsov the tments before. He does have a serve that really goes up and down. If he is not winning a good % on his first serve, DelBonis will get to look at a ton of break chances. Grigelis does not have a good second serve bec he typically wins a low % of them. He will need to bring his absolute best game here to make a good match in my opinion. I feel the serve will be up & down today and that will give DelB too many looks at break points. I look for DelBonis to move into the next round of qualies & get closer to that main draw match he so desperately wants.

[Dmoneytx]

I can't believe I bet the WTA. This could likely be my last best ever, in my entire life betting on the gay azzz biotches. I can't believe one of the biggest favs of the day is getting killed. I can't believe that a player who got beat by Vania King 6-0, 6-1 & got beat by Medina 6-2, 6-0 (RECENTLY!) is trashing a freaking top 30 player like Petrova (who had played well leading into this)!!! I passed on so many WTA matches bec they looked flakey & I bet I picked the ONLY big fav who is going to lose today! And Petriva is getting her azzz kicked it looks like. I am fairly speechless.........
