    funky1's picks

    Hi everyone

    This is my first thread here

    Basically, ill post all my tennis picks here and keep a running tally of win/void/lose

    Wish me luck haha

    I am a semi experienced gambler. The most i have ever punted was 1k on djoko to win 3-0 to profit 140 ...... I know a bit of a silly one...

    My goal is to make 10k profit with beginning amount of 200 with no time limit

    Bet 1 and 2:

    Bet 1: $50 on Djokovic to win 3-0 against Mayer ($1.30) x Murray to win 3-0 against Ferrer ($3.20) to win $108 considering Bet 2's imminent lose

    Bet 2: $50 on Djokovic to win 3-0 against Mayer ($1.30) x Murray to win 3-1 against Ferrer ($3.60) to win $134 considering Bet 1's imminent lose


    The way i see it is, Mayer will be tired and djoko will hit Mayer off the court with power and consistency.

    Murray is much better than Delpotro on grass, ferrer was consistent and all, but ferrre can really only win 1 set max agianst murray + crowd + line judge


    good luck all.

    bet 1 and bet 2 should be renamed part i and part ii respectfully as it really was part of 1 bet, sorry for confusion

    Bet 2:

    $120 on serena williams @ $1.55 to win $66

    serena has azerenka's number as of late in the USO last year and madrid this year

    prediction would be 6-4 6-3/2 in the sets she wins.

    good luck all!

    kerber and rad are too risky for me :S

    Bet 3:

    $210

    Djokovic to beat Federer in semis @ 1.4
    $300 @ 1.38 to win $114 profit


    muliplied by

    murray to beat tsonga @ 1.4

    to profit $201.6



    Good luck all....and most of all good luck Nole and Andy:$

    Reasoning....
    I cant imagine putting even $5 on federer in his current form or age....thats about it lol

    Djoker should role federer over in 3 if not 4 sets. First set and last set should be the closest.

    If it goes to five, federer will be sooo tired.

    Yep thats about it lol


    As for the other semi - i tip murray in 4 sets, jo to get a sset like he did against joker last year. But im not putting dosh on that one cause it is a bit out of my comfort zone :3. been reading the forums and watcing some videos and theres got to be only one player i'd have my money on - its murray

    heres to getting the account to $601.6 hahaha

    BOL everyone!!

    im back. i had a really good run in sports and casino this week. im at $1000 profit since wednesday 8/8/12

    thus, im going for the 10k still!!!

    also, i will be starting all over again with 1K this time, so its from 1k to 10k i guess you could say.

    i may not be punting alot over the next to weeks but i will be betting on other sprots, not just tennis, so perhaps afl and nba if thats ok??

    but i like to show everyone my tips so i don't go overboard on the betting.

    also, all casino wins/losses, will be recorded as i go

    putting a heffty $700 on the the adelaide crows to beat the brisbane lions

    odds @1.22 to profit $154

    crows are 2nd on the ladder and brisbane are 13th. cant see an upset here, even if brisbane have the home ground advantage.

    tippet is back in the line up, this can only go well for the crows

    i may increase the stakes before the match starts (in 5 hours from now) as well

    Dude, unless you actually document your plays that have won, there's no point in shouting out your bankroll every day. This isn't a diary. You say your profit is down to $700. The way I see it, you're not "up" at all. You said in an earlier post that you can post a screenshot of your winnings. Might want to do that to build some credibility.
