Almagro down the first set

shari91 · 11-02-10, 08:10 AM

Almagro with the break in the 2nd finally. Come on Muggy, close this set out and take it to 3.

danller · 11-02-10, 08:22 AM

There we go Almagro

Now we just need you to take the next set

danller · 11-02-10, 08:30 AM

omg almagro

onacloud · 11-02-10, 08:35 AM

down 0-2 last set not looking good

shari91 · 11-02-10, 08:37 AM

DGT serving lights out and Almagro looking like a dork out there. Still hoping he can come back and pull this one out but if not, then I'm at least thankful I didn't lay the chalk on this tool. Will have to redo my parlay with him out and add someone else I think if he loses.

cobalt king · 11-02-10, 08:43 AM

I put a hundred on him to win 40 and I woke up to see him down a set, hope he can pull it out

cobalt king · 11-02-10, 08:44 AM

I bet on kolschrieber too and he's losin the 3rd set as well, a few days back I lost 3/4 favs so yesterday I bet all dogs and all the favs won now both favs are losing the third set, tennis is killing me

onacloud · 11-02-10, 08:50 AM

almargo looking to steal this match hopefully he will

danller · 11-02-10, 08:52 AM

There we go again! Now finish him off!

onacloud · 11-02-10, 09:09 AM

well not the way I wanted to start my day but oh well BOL to everyone today

shari91 · 11-02-10, 09:12 AM

Sorry to those who tailed. Wish I'd posted Chela in time but it sadly didn't work out that way.

Cobalt, be careful laying chalk like that especially in the early rounds of these little tournaments. I don't normally play many parlays but I'd rather risk one unit and combine a few players that I like than risking a decent chunk of cash in the hope that a player will turn up and do what he/she should do.

shari91 · 11-02-10, 09:21 AM

After talking about that match with a friend and reading what a few people on other sites had to say about it, I'm 100% convinced Almagro tanked it. Because of that, I'm not going to post any more picks this week because I really don't want to be responsible for other people placing faith in my plays when yet again, some players are proving they're not always going to give it 100% this week. I just don't want to lose you guys any cash.

I'll still be around in my thread to give my opinion or cheer your plays on when I can though.

noober · 11-02-10, 09:24 AM

of course it was a tank but the price reflected the possibility of a tank. If they both give their best this is a 80/20 affair.

danller · 11-02-10, 09:24 AM

Shari, now that Im back you just dont gonna post your plays?

haha, just kidding with ya

gl rest of the week!

onacloud · 11-02-10, 09:29 AM

So are you thinking the books worked that into the price? His price only dropped 10 cents from opening which isn't too remarkable at all considering it was the first match of the day so I'm wondering if others were prepared for it - although I slightly doubt it considering the things I've been reading online. Regardless, this guy is now dead to me too. My list is growing longer by the day but I'd rather be safe than sorry.

paco · 11-02-10, 09:31 AM

Shari, people tail at own risk. U not losing anyone money. U are playing the games urself. I know how it can feel, I post plays everyday

Sorry that match didn't work out, but I'm sure there's much more winners in Sharis pockets

On another note, my drunk dart tennis pick came thru

pavyracer · 11-02-10, 09:31 AM

Should I play the other parts of the parlay as individual plays Shari? I can't see you missing more than one play today.

I think he's worth a shot. Not a big one, but he definitely has a chance. Keep in mind though that Gasquet's been coming into form whereas Lu's has been lost somewhat so I really wouldn't bet big. However if Gasquet is serving like crap or isn't giving 100%, Lu can definitely take this one from him.

Yeah, i am saying that late into the season prices take into account the large number of upsets due to tanking.

Almagro should be at 1.25 against Traver if playing a final and a lot is at stake.

Thanks Paco!

I told you Tipsy was good! If he hadn't have gone squirrelly in his last match and started swearing we would've cashed that one too. He's on a bit of a roll at the moment and really playing hard. Good money maker for bettors I think.

I don't lay chalk like that but yeah, I think those other plays are pretty much 99.9% barring anything dodgy. I'll probably rework them into another parlay myself.

Thank you, you seem to be thinking the same as me I might lay a small play hoping that Gas doesn't show up. Good luck on the rest of your plays today. Don't worry about if you lose a play on here everyone that tails you knows the risk! Keep the plays coming I enjoy reading your thoughts on these matches.

I did. A trainer buddy of mine who had a winner there today sent me a text and told me to 'go with my blood'. Considering I'm 1/2 American, I assumed he meant to take Americain and since there was a French influence as well and I grew up speaking it in Canada, I figured that was the horse for me. I was in SBR Chat during the race and only put $50 on it because I didn't look or listen to anything else since I was too busy chatting. Was still a nice payout at $13.00 but still the cheapest Melb Cup for me since I moved here. Almost backed So You Think for a place but I was worried that the bookies would clean up so I stayed away. I guess they did with everyone who backed it to win though - so much money they must've made today.

Well done on Americain, was a very tough day at the track and bookies would have cleaned up, onto oaks day i guess, was hoping berrer could do something tonight but he's down a set and a break

DMB40 · 11-02-10, 10:55 AM

shari do you like ferrer -295 or -3.5?

Yezzir · 11-02-10, 10:58 AM

Took Starace after he lost the 1st set @ +800.

Let's hope he doesn't choke.

in pinny case, maybe yes. In case you don't notice it, when I placed my tennis bets, they closed almagro ML while handicap still open. I dont see any big line movement and no news of injury, which I wonder why. But, now it just taught me something.

danller · 11-02-10, 05:09 PM

Shari, how bout a nice chalky winner for me

? Need a partner to my play in my parlay

paco · 11-03-10, 12:43 AM

Shari, I think imma make Youzni my sleeping play. Do u think it's good?

I wouldn't feel right telling you to bet that one but that's not saying it's a bad play. Odds shouldn't be that high on Youzhny and that's making me think something more is going on. If you're going to play it, just play him small.

pat venditto · 11-03-10, 01:03 AM

Good morning peeps. Lets get some winners for the upcoming matches.
