Shari's tennis plays

[shari91]

any plays shari? pretty good card tonight.

Very hard today for me pacio because I've only watched a few matches this week. I put a little on Granollers and Hantuchova and will also play Nalbandian. Still looking at the other ones though.

[Yezzir]

Hard card today.

Not liking much at all.

Hantuchova is a must though. Granollers also, Monaco should never be that much of a FAV, always worth going against him.

[danller]

shari, how big will you be on Nalbandian you think?

[shari91]

shari, how big will you be on Nalbandian you think?

Not big - only 1.5x. I haven't seen enough this week to bet big on anything. Focusing more on NBA and a few other sports until these tournaments are over. Plus the matches today are very close I think. Great for tennis fans but not necessarily so great for tennis bettors.

why is gasquet a dog to troicki?

[paciophobia]

granollers with an early break to begin the 2nd set. hope its a fix and its on our side

[shari91]

why is gasquet a dog to troicki?

I honestly have no clue. Screwiest odds I've seen in awhile. If they weren't willing to make Gasquet the favourite the odds at least should have looked more like those in the Nalbandian/Roddick match in my opinion. Because of that, I'm staying away. Afraid I'm missing something obvious here.

Would be nice! That's why him and Hantu were only small plays for me. When I figured out their chances, it was over the odds so I had to play them but I just really don't have much of a clue this week to be honest.

I stayed out of this game. The odds don't make any sense.

Shari did you read the title of this article?

They are saying Nalbadian upset Cilic even though he was close to -300 fav.

I'm really not that good dan. I get lucky some times and get killed other times. Today I made money on my first game plays, lost some on the 2H of the 2nd game and then made a big chunk on Aussie basketball. I'm all over the shop.

I just threw a little bit on Gasquet since I'll probably be awake for most of it. Am also on the Davy/Simon over so hopefully at least one of these plays hit.

Hi Shari how are you doing been a while

[mighty maron]

In your opinion, does Soderling beat Monfils 3 out of 4 times on this surface?

Apparently that journalist isn't a bettor. Hopefully some casual bettors see this article too and truly believe this was a massive upset. Helps us to get decent odds sometimes when a higher ranked player is up against someone who is playing great on the surface and has much better form heading into the match.

Hi Shari how are you doing been a while

Nice to see you! Hope all is well.

In your opinion, does Soderling beat Monfils 3 out of 4 times on this surface?

This year, definitely not. Not only based on indoor hard stats but also on the fact that Monfils has somehow changed from clown to sneaky bastard with his head screwed on somewhat straight in the past couple of weeks whereas Sod has been somewhat average with his old mental lapses sneaking back in. Definitely, definitely not 3 out of 4 in my opinion.

[mighty maron]

Thank you sheri for your detailed response. Hope your day is profitable

[Carolina31]

Shari what's your take on Davydenko/Simon match?

[shari91]

Shari what's your take on Davydenko/Simon match?

I took the over but if I had to pick, I'd take Simon. Davy struggled with Chela whereas Simon has basically coasted to get to this point and has been playing really well although the play of his opponents has helped with that somewhat. And as much as I don't really care for Simon, at least I could be more confident that his motivation was there whereas Davy's been bouncing around with the effort he puts into matches and also his form since he came back from injury a few months ago.

GAME SET MATCH, HANTUCHOVA. wouldve been a great start to another betting day to get granollers through also, but im more than happy with hantuchova cashing. congrats to everyone!!!

[Yezzir]

Granollers does it, woohoo.

2 from 2, Hantuchova and Granollers.

Time for Donkey-denko to make it 3.

[DMB40]

davy up to +160 line jumped 20

[Yezzir]

davy up to +160 line jumped 20

Strange, on Bet365, his line has dropped from +135 to +125.

Edit - on the market he is +125, but in live play he's +136.

Strange.

I'm going to void and take the in play price.

Now +138.

I may just void altogether.

[paciophobia]

cash granollers!!! wonder what his line was entering the 2nd set considering he was +250 to begin the match with! trying not to think it was tanked! doesnt matter though we were on the right side!!! 2/2 for today!! cmon davy make it 3/3!!! thank you shari i must be the happiest asshole in the world right now lol

[Yezzir]

Fukk it, Davydenko @ +138 against Simon is too good.

[pavyracer]

looks like gasquet blew his gasket today

[iceman8847]

Does soldering win today ? I got him at -160

[danller]

Youre making some coins then Shari
Ive only made one bet so far today and that was on hantuchova so Im happy

Good job Paco!

[gators0708]

Fed or Novak?

[paciophobia]

hi shari. im thinking of risking quite a hefty sum on ivanovic. i dont see her losing. 2nd opinion?

[shari91]

Fed or Novak?

If I was betting, I'd take Djoko.

hi shari. im thinking of risking quite a hefty sum on ivanovic. i dont see her losing. 2nd opinion?

After watching her play against Krummy I was really not impressed by her. If Krumm had stopped approaching the net, she had a great chance of winning that match. So it's hard for me to say. If you feel strongly about Ana, go for it!

[paciophobia]

i watched that thriller match between ana and krummy. left the television though after hantu breaking kleybanova in the first set only to find out kleybanova ended up schooling hantu. how was kleybanova though in that match? was it an above average performance from her or did hantu just screw up?
