    Chardy in. 7-5,6-4
    sweating on Tipsarevic here. He's wearing
    these goofy red glasses and getting crushed,
    who does he think he is, Elton John ?
    man...... this guy goes right on my chit list if he loses.

    Tipsy has had to grind out just about every win he's gotten over the last couple of weeks. I guess fatigue may be catching up with him?

    Fischer has some talent, but he should not be grilling Tipsy like burgers on the 4th of July. Tipsy is one break away from being right in this thing again, so all is not lost for you yet Snowball.

    Perfect example of why you should establish a cutoff for prices on including in parlays. -730 does so little to add to your payout, but can do so much to damage it. Anything over -500 really needs to be looked at hard as to why you are adding it in there. Tipsarevic might beat Fischer 99 out of 100 times, but the one time Fs it all up.

    yeah i know Eagles I have posted that also - I agree and think it was
    careless of me to put him in. It's cloudy and dark, are his sunglasses prescription ?
    even if they are there's no reason to wear sunglasses instead of regular ones
    when it's overcast.

    Brian I have been posting winning plays here since right before Wimbledon.
    I had Roger and Serena when they were dogs. I have dogs posted and parlays
    posted, only a few losers, virtually all winners which readers of this
    subforum know to be true.
    I am up 15 times my money on tennis in one month. While it is true that tennis is not my main sport, far from it, only an afterthought in my 24 years
    of sports gambling experience.
    I'm pleased with my results. And I'm just about to hit my main parlay today.
    I'll be the first one to admit there is more to learn.
    What about you ? you must be done learning, eh ?

    What possible reason would you have for adding Jankovic in there for a parlay? She is in such bad form it is amazing, and she shouldn't be 2 to 1 fav over anyone. Vandeweghe smoked her last week and apparently you didn't learn from it.

    Do you even watch these matches? Do you take notes of what you see?

    How could you have possibly taken bartoli last night, knowing how she played against Wickmayer the week before? You got incredibly lucky... but did you really feel good about that wager afterwards? Did you ignore the fact that she had 3 aces and 19 double faults? Count your blessings that you won... but learn from it afterwards. Apparently you don't watch these matches?

    You say you've made 15 times your money.. thats great... yet, you criticize me when I've now made 37 times my money in the same timeframe.

    The only way you will make money longterm in tennis is to constantly study the tapes, and take into huge consideration... the current form... You don't do either.

    If you knew anything about tennis you would know there really is no current form in WTA. It varies daily.

    And how could you possibly have felt good about taking Tipsy as a -730 favorite? The line movement shows that tons of sharp money came in on his opponent.... and he is just 3 days off of winning a title, plus the olympics are coming up. Do you really not take into consideration his motivation for a tournament? There is very little motivation here, and he is defending absolutely no points.

    A win is a win though. Obviously there was a little motivation seeing how he did try to win when he could of thrown in the towel.

    Oh really?

    Serena isn't in great form right now?

    Mona Barthel wasn't in horrible form for the previous few months? What about Hantuchova? Bartoli has looked great with 27 double faults in the last 2 matches?

    Confidence is everything in tennis... and what do you think form is based on?

    Gimme a break....

    Brian I am not into the comparisons like you are. But I will say this.
    The difference between my claim of 15x and yours of 37x is that
    MY PLAYS ARE ON THIS FRIKKIN BOARD
    and yours are, well, not.

    ps I admitted I shouldn't have put Tips in today's parlay
    I was fortunate it won. That's what happens when
    I don't drink enough coffee.

    Apparently your not 15x anymore after that Fish defeat.

    And yeah.. you are right... my bets are 100% verified by a sports montoring site.... yours are not.

    i put 4 units on the parlay
    Fish ran into a frikkin post and was up in the match

    Brian I think you're a pain in the royal azz
    and I'm not going to post here anymore if you keep trolling me
    by putting me on the defensive.
    Typing is not something that comes naturally to me
    and it's not worth the effort.

    Do you bet with 5dimes snowball? If you do and you got a loss for that you could probably go on chat and see if they'll refund some of that because of how uniqu was that. They probably won't give it all back but they might throw you a free play of you are a loyal player.

    I told you.. I'm not trying to criticize you... I'm actually trying to help you out... Putting guys like Tipsarevic and Jankovic in parlays adds absolutely nothing to it...

    Who are you again?

    Sit back and take notes. Given current form Jankovic wins 2-0 ~60% of the time and 2-1 ~17% of the time in a retrofitted algorithm that puts extra emphasis on recent form and specifically the last 15 matches on surface..

    i called, advancing player takes the win grade if it's over one set.
    they aren't gonna give me any charity, they already owe me too much.
    anyway I'm not going to post any tennis plays for a while
    taking my winnings in the last month and movin on.
    this was bullcrap with Fish.
    and I'm not interested in the chatter anymore.
