    tevari's 2013 tennis thread

    In this thread, I'll be tracking my picks. Some will have insight, others not so much, depending on my mood I've had a profitable 2010, 2011, and 2012, though in declining order. Looking to buck the trend. Though it is the first day of the year on the calendar, the season started 4 days ago, and I have already made two picks in this thread, both winners, so I am going to include this in my record. I play $100 units, and don't make too many bets. Good luck to all any/all that tail.

    1/1/13

    Brands [+160] Chardy had an 'impressive' year last season but this match really is serve versus serve. If things get tight, I expect the Frenchman to revert to his usual choking ways and erratic shot taking. His forehand is especially troublesome. I expect at least a tiebreak or two. The German has a good shot here.

    Great hit with Brands, it seemed like such an obvious play but I was scared of Chardy for some reason

    i just put $500 on kubot and $200 on lopez to win 2-1. I win $750 if Lopez wins 2-1 and $1,300 if Kubot wins so that's $700 with possible $50 or $600 profit. Just need a set from Kubot!

    Good luck chief. I'm unsure if they will play this match today as the Ferrer/Brown match should be ending at like 11 PM now due to the 1 hour delay.

    No. You have to wait unfortunately. They SHOULD play though, I think Kohlschreiber/Dodig went until about 11-11:30 yesterday.

    Well, most of the time if I do make a 3 or 4 player parlay, the last leg is usually what makes or breaks me. Therefore, to either ensure profit (guarding against loss of the last leg losing), hedging is something I always do. For example, in the situation below:

    The fact that Kubot beat Lopez fukked the parlay, but I still made more back than I originally bet on the parlay. Hedging isn't really looking to profit, it is about protecting yourself against potential loss.

    I took the under 20.5. Figured Davy could win 6-4 6-4 or 7-6 6-3 and Bolelli still cover the handicap. (not that I really think it will be that close)

    I think the under is solid. If Davy plays the way he did against dracula & youhz, this wont be close

    I think he'll be outclassed. Maybe something like 6-4 6-3. Tough one to call considering how well 'denko has played this tournament.

    Sunday 1/6: McHale [+340]

    One of my favorite situational bets against a player coming off winning a tournament. Li needed three sets to dispose of a hot Zakopalova, and I think she will give a half hearted effort tonight with the Aussie Open around the corner. Lots of traveling, and a hungry opponent in McHale (who has been poor). I expect 2 close sets, or a one set and retirement victory for McHale. 1 unit.

    McHale served for the set twice, at 5-4 and 6-5 and choked both times and then played like doo-doo in the tiebreak. Chalk that up as a loss.
