      I'm starting to think I need to hang out in the kitchen more. Went to caramelise some onions for this focaccia I'm going to make for dinner, and when I come back: 0-3 Montanes in the 3rd!!!

      Now shush Pride... let's get this one everyone!!

      Oh, and my UK gambling buddy just said that if anyone needs a stream they're showing quite a few games live on livescorehunter.com

                Woohoo!!! I forgot about this one altogether after Montanes/Seppi got close. Great job TB! Sometimes the faves are the way to go. Hard to lay all that money but in the 2nd round, I felt comfortable tailing you.

                The only one I'm a little worried about is Murray, but stuff it. Faith, faith and more faith. Have to believe in my bets or there's no point betting, right? Let's do this!

                  How about if we're only going to hit 2, we make sure Ljubicic is one of them, okay? Thank you.

                        Im about to go order Dominos lol man hmm.. Michael Berrer actually playing half decent. +500 would of been some value but I hate playing against Juan Monaco. I saw him beat Verdasco and Juan Carlos Ferrer this year on CLAY but still early days. Looks like Montanes has this, 3-0 for TB.... Onto the remainder games.

                          what are your guys thoughts on hedging my parlay?

                          I have 500 on the parlay and would have to put around 280 on llodra for a 500 payout.

                          i think this may have to do with me being incredibly tired .

                          if lloadra wins i lose nothing

                          if i win the parlay i get around 1000 - 280 = 720 profit

                            I think you should let the parlay ride. If you want to be extra safe and want to enjoy the game then hedge it. Since your guarantee a hefty profit I would hedge but thats my opinion and it really depends on how your bankroll is during the week. If your up alot already for the week then I would just let it ride, if not play the safe play and take the hedge.

                            Money management is just as important as making a bet.

                              Okay, so I thought I wouldn't be able to hedge because of timing but I was wrong. I can...

                              Instead I'm leaning towards dumping more on Ljubicic. Quick thoughts anyone?

                                Disclaimer: I should qualify that statement by saying that if I put more on Ljubicic y'all will be forced to deal with my stresshead tendencies until it's over.

                                        depending on the outcome of this match, i will either play big on murray because i wanna make back part of my hedge or because i wanna chase what i lose on the hedge.

                                          Okay Pride... I think it's only you, TB and I on this one. He's the 8th seed, TB's 67% confident...

                                            Fair enough. But it worked so do voodoo if you need to!!

                                            And yeah, you KNOW I'll be chasing hard on Murray if Ljubi doesn't come through. ()

                                                I have noticed we were in the same sections a lot today / yesterday Shari. You do well on the day?

                                                Berrer will win if he keeps his disgusting service game where it is at but I do not see Monaco laying down to die

                                                  Okay Pride... I think it's only you, TB and I on this one. He's the 8th seed, TB's 67% confident...

                                                      judging by how the game looks ill be placing a bet at around 5 mins before the murray line closes, is there any reason why the ML on murray looks so amazing

                                                                the argument vs murray is that he does not care about this tournament and may be a bit rusty on clay.

                                                                regardless of how important he thinks the tourney is, no one goes out to lose.

                                                                    I'm up quite a lot this week. More so than I have been for a long time. I usually start each Monday with a set dollar value of my units and then drop it when I've made my goal, but this week, I've continued to bet my larger $ amount on the plays that I either blindly tail on TB or the ones that TB, LB and Paco have an opinion on. On those ones, I figure out what I like, see what they have to say, and then take it from there. As of yesterday I was up 3 weeks worth of my weekly goal. As of today, regardless if our parlay/my bet on Ljubicic comes through I'm almost up a month's worth. And it's only Wednesday here!!!!

                                                                    The only place I've lost money this week is the NBA. And even the bets I've won were teeny ones, but it's all good. I swore I wasn't going to play the NBA until the playoffs but I broke my own promise and bet big on an over that got killed by the hook. My fault - went back on my own word. Now though, I'm laying off except for teeny bets if I'm bored until playoffs start.

                                                                    Hope you've had an awesome week so far too!!!
