Excited to be watching and betting tennis again!

Bonaventure +118 over Hsieh
Bonnie has won her last 9 matches including winning the Toronto tournament back in early November. In this Auckland tournament she has already won 4 matches convincingly including beating #50 Putinseva yesterday.

Hard hitting lefty. Can't argue taking her in current form at +money. BOL

[Kiddpokerr]

I like Hsieh here.

Thanks Honeybadger44. I often look at current form.

[QuantumLeap]

I like Hsieh here.

What do you like about Hsieh in this spot?

I like Hsieh here.

Will you be making an actual wager ?

[Kiddpokerr]

Hsieh easy.

[QuantumLeap]

Hsieh easy.

It wasn't easy in the first set. Bonnie had broken serve to make it 4-5 with her serving. Holding serve in that game would have been a totally different story at 5-5.

I think she fell apart in the second set after losing her serve on that game. She got down 0-4 in the second set and at least made an effort to bring it back by winning 3 games but Hsieh was too much for her.

Yeah but its hard to pull a comeback like that esp for a not good player.

P.S. i also check form when cap but look at the quality of players she played with...basically same as schedule strength in all major sports. Cheers.

Thanks for the reply.

Actually, strength of schedule is one of my favorite angles. I just put more emphasis on form for this one.

You're right. When someone gets down 0-4 it's pretty tough to come back.

Np buddy, keep grinding.

Parlay (-135):

Radwa over Vickery

and

Goerges over Hercog

Hercog has been playing on the minor circuit for months. She is a shadow of what she once was.

Vickery has not beaten a Top 100 player since late August of last year.

Radwa and Goerges are at the top of the players.

[Kiddpokerr]

Right on on Radwa!

[Honeybadger44]

Hope that your book has a favorable retirement rules, because Vickery is playing injured. She barely finished her match yesterday.

Don't think backing Goerges offers value at this price. Hercog was playing on itf circut because she had to improve her ranking, after having a lot of problems with injuries lately. She will get overvalued down the line, because her serve and power catches observers eye quickly and kinda hide her weaknesses. But at this moment, backing her might even prove to be a smart thing to do. Imho, Goerges is not a match up that will bother her, because Julia's style doesn't really throw her of her game.

Best of luck

Thanks HB.

Yeah, I noticed that Vick had retired in past matches. That is partly why I went with the ML here because the retirement rules will give a win on ML but not on the spread if a player retires.

Well you wont know form unless you watch the matches and know what youre looking at. Beating certain opponents mean nothing if those opponents arnt in good form themselves.
