Shari's tennis plays

Lmao at the commentator, he just took a swipe at the psycho! " I reckon if you were NOVAK'S GP you'd be a very busy person"

Everyone can see but him!

Well Djoko will also take set 2 I find it hard to see Berdych stealing this now. Can Djoko end this in 3?

Mikail · 01-25-11, 05:30 AM

My only play on this match was Djoko to win the 1st set. I wen't rather big on it. Now i'm just watching for entertainment and research.

I can see why they bring Jim every year as he's a former player and blah blah blah, but he's a bit of a dork, no?! To pay him all of this cash, especially now that Chokeitt seems to have realized his career is basically over and he's commentating every damn game, doesn't make much sense.

Even now after Berdych serves 2 aces "well obviously you can't do any better than that". No shit Sherlock - unless someone breaks their bloody leg, an ace is pretty damn perfect, no?

Atrocious.

Ok, I can go to sleep now. Hopefully he finishes it in this next set.

Ace_of_Spades · 01-25-11, 05:39 AM

You don't like Jim Shari lol. He does seem to think he is gods gift sometimes imo.

I posted on here yesterday that I was doing that each game in the Nadal match when Cilic was serving. Good money maker for sure but I'm stressing enough about this handicap. No need to add more to it. Best of luck.

i just did during the tiebreaker when it was 5-5 @ -7.5

thank fuk joker pulled that out. i sense, however, that my total of 5x (was 4x) is much less than u.

kingsr · 01-25-11, 05:41 AM

Shari stressin cos she has a big bet on, even the dopey commentators are getting to her.

The funny thing is I do like him for the most part. He has a lot of good inside knowledge about the players and explains shot selection and strategy very well. But when I'm stressed out and he's constantly making dumbass comments that even a donkey would understand, it's frustrating.

I get that they have to appeal to the casual tennis viewer but how many people are sitting at home the night before a public holiday anyway?!

shari91 · 01-25-11, 05:44 AM

iPhone fail.

And now Berdych is calling for the trainer. I swear to FUKK if this little shit retires I'm giving up tennis betting until March.

Ace_of_Spades · 01-25-11, 05:50 AM

Must be tough playing Tennis with contact lenses.

Yes, the books will sigh in relief if he does.

yeah, heard it loud and clear on eurosport ... 'that's a true fan' said the commentator... lol

Do you bet people try to wager from their laptops from the stands in Melbourne? Can you even get inside the arena with a laptop (it would be pretty obvious what you need it for, no?)

This is exactly why I don't like betting matches I go to watch live. I'd be the same way except I'd sound more like "come on you fukking piece of trash. You're a pro tennis player and I'm trying to make a tiny bit of money compared to what your overpaid ass is going to earn here even if you lose". Not good

Any smartphone will do, no need for laptops

Mirar Baseball · 01-25-11, 05:59 AM

how the F didn't djokovic SMASH the ball INTO THE BODY of berdych to earn a breakpoint there

weak!

Amazing.

Wouldn't you get your money back on a HC? I know you want to win.

I had this idea for Champions League matches, but they won't let anything 'throwable' into the stadium (even if it's an obviously expensive piece of hardware). What I'm asking is whether laptops are allowed into the stands of your average ATP match. My guess is no, especially for a match like this where the Rod Laver stands are packed.

.... and btw, have you ever tried wagering from your iphone? I have, it's maddeningly ineffective. Laptop works *much much* better, especially if you only have a couple of minutes for placing your in-play wager.

Shari you must be up a million units this Australian Open, Djokovic looking great here.

Yeah I'd get my money back. But out of my really big bets so far this tournament I've won one and pushed one thanks to that sorry sack of shit Baggy. I try to pick and choose my spots carefully when I increase my bet sizes substantially and it's just frustrating when you've made the right bet, go through a couple hours of stress and end up nowhere. But I realise I'm just being a bit of a baby. Much nicer to push than to lose on retirements.

Here in Australia we cant bet live on any match using the intenet, live wagers must be placed over the phone! So therefore you can check odds on your phone then call to place the wager

Ace_of_Spades · 01-25-11, 06:05 AM

Djokovic looks like a fukin Gladiator. He may win this tournament.

Gee · 01-25-11, 06:07 AM

if berdych pulls a baggy, i will be seriously unimpressed.

Mirar: i'm usually betting on my phone on bet365 at local sporting events. however, most aussies don't (i'm assuming, apart from those on this forum) have bet365, bwin or international accounts, so the two options are to phone up to place a live bet or wander down to the TAB at the venue.

Guess the line of the two semifinals:

Djokovic +250 vs Federer -290

Murray +330 vs Nadal -380

This must be a joke!

shari91 · 01-25-11, 06:09 AM

Mirar, for the past 6 days every bet I've made, all of my research, etc has been done solely through my iPhone. It's beyond frustrating but with a good wifi or 3G connection, I'm just thankful modern technology gives me the option. Luckily if I'm running out of time I can just call the bets in but to be honest I've only called in 1 other than live bets. It's definitely better than nothing.

Ace_of_Spades · 01-25-11, 06:10 AM

I find it kinda frustraing using the Iphone and placing bets.
