Shari's tennis plays

[kop1987]

[bobbyhazell]

She's killing her out there.

[kop1987]

shari, did u make a wager on bennetteau's game?? u think he can come back from 2 sets like he did b4??

I wouldn't put any money on Benneteau.

[kop1987]

icic.. any running match with good value money line now??

[Yezzir]

And Clijsters wins. Again Henin's serve not strong enough to take it to players with a strong returning game. While I'm sorry for those who lost money on Henin, I'm selfishly happy that I analysed that one somewhat decently and since I like Kimmy, that makes me even happier.

My favourite womens player, thrilled to see her doing so well, classy lady.

[shari91]

icic.. any running match with good value money line now??

MAYBE Zakopalova. Kanepi struggles in the heat and it's now 29 degrees there.

[kop1987]

icic.. okok.. maybe will try some on zakopalova..

wad abt berdych/? did u pplace a bet on this match too?

[Yezzir]

I'm on her now, in play.

No Berdych bet for me.

whoah kanepi win 3 in a row.. now level in 2nd set.. tennis really unpredictable..

[shari91]

Yep. That's why I said maybe bet her - it is really difficult to make money betting live with women. Sometimes even with the men.

[kop1987]

icic.. i have been trying to take favourites.. but it seems to not able to work out..

its either i move a step too late.. or i choose the wrong favourite

It's really hard. Especially once you hit this stage in a Slam. Trying to get decent odds when you're live betting is difficult. That's why I tend to stay away from it unless the better player goes down in the first set and the market overreacts. Doesn't happen too often though.

[kop1987]

icic.. anyway how is djokovic playing, shari, you watching?? is he good or he can choke sometimes?

[shari91]

He's playing well and Hewitt isn't testing him at all yet. I wouldn't touch this match yet. Maybe if Hewitt wins the 2nd set.

[kop1987]

ok.. djokovic wins the 2nd set... all the running ml are very low on odds now.. nothing for me to bet..

[Goat Milk]

R.Soderling Games Won/D.Ferrer Games Won Over 33½ -120* 1x (risking)

this will cash.

nice job today as well shari looks like your killing it. nothing new.

[shari91]

Clijsters/Henin over 22.5 -113

Radwanska +100

Kvitova +215

Lu +7.5 - 190

Lu/Roddick over 35 +120

Well it was a good day with only Radwanska going down from my posted plays although I lost on the Querrey/Murray over that I didn't post. But of course now I'm PISSED OFF ROYALLY that I didn't follow my own rule of putting money on the ML when I take a dog with points. Lu!!

[bolekblues]

Great day shari! unfortunately i was right about Radwanska copletely fading, but overall it was a good day.

[G3ck0l0c0]

Excellent day Shari !

[danller]

Shari, have u stopped posting units? Have been missing your plays for a bit now after my vacation on Crete

[Cappinpicks]

[Haydos]

Thanks for the calls Shari... GL for the rest of the week.

[ebinsugewa]

Sweating tennis is great, thanks a bunch!

[shari91]

Shari, have u stopped posting units? Have been missing your plays for a bit now after my vacation on Crete

Hey dan - I hope you had a great vacation!! No more posted units for me. I never really felt comfortable putting them up there just in case someone bet outside their limits so I'm just posting plays now. When people ask though I still say which plays I feel the most strongly about.

[Masu485]

does Na Li cover tomorrow?

[shari91]

does Na Li cover tomorrow?

I think there's a decent chance she does. 4 out of the 5 matches they've played have gone to a tiebreak so past history would be on your side if you took Li with the points. Plus she can handle Serena's serve. Personally I think this is a good bet although I'm leaning more towards the over.

[lakerboy]

shari i i like zvonareva +327ml and i like kvitova --165 ml. are those good plays?

[Wilforth]

shari i i like zvonareva +327ml and i like kvitova --165 ml. are those good plays?

I'm eying that too and I'll wait to see what the "experts" think about it. The game should be much closer than the lines would suggest.

[shari91]

shari i i like zvonareva +327ml and i like kvitova --165 ml. are those good plays?

I think they are, especially Kvitova who has blown me away so far, but obviously I've been wrong before.

Zvonareva won't get much love because she's 0-4 lifetime against Kimmy but they haven't played since '06 so you can't really put a lot of weight on that. Plus Kimmy showed in the first set yesterday with Henin that she's still prone to fits of nerves which lead her to silly unforced errors as she admitted after the match. Zvonareva's tough when her head's screwed on straight - her great returns will be able to handle Kimmy's hard hitting and she plays a lot of slices which could cause damage as well but her serve % hasn't been the best lately which Clijsters will kill her on with her own strong returns if she gives her the chance. There's definitely a lot of value with Zvonareva at the price and that's how I like to bet in tennis.

S.Williams Wins 2-1 +395* vs Not S.Williams In 3 Sets .25x

why not?

[shari91]

My plays today:

Pironkova +6 -130

Li/Williams over 19.5 -120

Li +4.5 +100


Still debating about the other 2 matches.

[shari91]

Staying away from the Clijsters match and sticking with my initial strong lean on Kvitova.

Kvitova -146

[danller]

Then I have to ask:P
Whats your strongest picks?
