Think Somdev has any chance?

Definitely more of a chance than this price says. Pretty hilarious that if I hedged yesterday and took Somdev to win the tournament I'd have received +250. Although I'm sure a lot of people will disagree, Anderson is being highly overvalued here. Somdev isn't a chump. Or at least not THAT big of one.

Yeah after watching him play back in November at a challenger I'm rooting for him to win one. He has put the work in no doubt, going to school and giving up 4 years of pro earnings and earning his stripes, hopefully making him a more mature player.

I see that Kaia Kanepi is playing Maria Jose Martinez Sanchez today.

Kaia played some amazing tennis last year and won me some good money.

Am I bias or does she have a good shot of winning tonight?

Thoughts

Both are former college players but Anderson turned pro after his junior year.

Coochie - it's very hard to tell with Kaia. She's still very inconsistent as far as which of her personalities shows up to matches. If I were betting this one, I'd be on her for small in the hope that her country pride can screw her head on straight.

Gamblor - no qualies for me tonight. Just going to stick with small bets on the finals.

Kanepi line dropped from 1,76 to 1,46 in Betfair within 2 hours

That's crazy! She closed at $1.87 at Centrebet or at least that was the line 5 mins before they took it down. Seems that someone on Betfair may know something.

Diesel79 · 02-06-11, 05:43 AM

Kanepi is up by 5-2 in first set.... I might be wrong but I believe she has never lost at home

Coochiemudlo · 02-06-11, 05:51 AM

Thanks Shari.

I saw the line movement and jumped in pretty hard. I got her at 1.73 on sportsbet.com.au

Kaia has always been good to me so lets hope she keeps it up

I'll be so pissed if she wins easily and I decided not to bet her because I wanted to watch Rudy on One HD instead. Crying my ass off over this movie and I've seen it 10 times before.

Tommy_de1st · 02-06-11, 06:36 AM

Shari, I sent you an email

Good day everyone

shari91 · 02-06-11, 07:02 AM

Thanks Tommy.

All plays will be 1/2 unit as I'm not pissing away any chunk of our profits this week (ignoring the Mannarino future it's still been an awesome week in here

)

Somdev +4.5 $1.88

Giraldo $2.30

As always I put a little on the ML when I bet the handicap and it's important to remind you again: I QUITE OFTEN SUCK IN FINALS. So you're probably best to fade or avoid these matches altogether.

benrama · 02-06-11, 07:04 AM

I like both Giraldo and Dodig tonight as underdogs. Giraldo being Columbian will get plenty of support from local Chileans and it will almost be like a home crowd.

benrama · 02-06-11, 07:21 AM

Looks like we posted at about the same time Shari re: Giraldo. I have him with 0.5UNIT for the win and 0.5UNIT in a parlay with Anderson paying about +180.

Any late night plays Shari?

makaveli66 · 02-06-11, 11:55 PM

Shari, I need a really strong lean. Not a pick, just a really strong lean..

makaveli66 · 02-06-11, 11:58 PM

..Wanted to post somewhere before 12..

brettels · 02-07-11, 12:09 AM

youzhny and hewitt easy winners

makaveli66 · 02-07-11, 12:15 AM

Yo, what's a good serving speed? I can serve over 150mph. So fast people can't get out of the way and I hit em and pick up aces and sh*t.

Yes mam.

brettels · 02-07-11, 12:32 AM

thats so slow makaveli , at least double your speed and you will have a decent second serve.

AzNDooM · 02-07-11, 01:47 AM

Youzhney is a good bet but odds aren't the best atm

brettels · 02-07-11, 03:54 AM

That's why I made it a double with Hewitt for a total odd of 1.43 at my bookie. Makes it half decent i think.

benrama · 02-07-11, 04:46 AM

So close on Giraldo, I guess I should take the ATS more often - at least place for half my bet. Lots of juicy undergods in the next 24 hours, I personally like for the ABN Amro:

Zverev +4 and ML, 0.25UNIT each. Practically mandatory for me to bet against Cilic when he's this much of a favourite, admittedly Zverev has a poor hard court record but did beat Giraldo at the Shanghai masters and Giraldo has been playing well.

Huta Gulang +4. Was impressed by his performace in Johannesburg, particularly beating Tipsy who may have had an Aus Open letdown but is a quality player.

Llodra +3 - same as with Cilic, Davydenko is money in the long run as a favourite to fade.

benrama · 02-07-11, 04:48 AM

And my favourite play for the San Jose is Phau +5.5 against Hewitt. Hewitt is in the twilight of his career and Phau can give quality players a run for their money.

GAMBLOR777 · 02-07-11, 04:57 AM

good luck ben, like the zverev pick

he was money last year

benrama · 02-07-11, 05:04 AM

Thanks mate, its time for non slam tennis again, its underdog time

shari91 · 02-07-11, 05:13 AM

Hey guys - just starting to look at tennis now. Not touching the first two Pattaya matches - prices are too short on Peng and Kiri.

shari91 · 02-07-11, 05:26 AM

Changed my mind.

Brianti +5 $1.75

shari91 · 02-07-11, 06:05 AM

Schoorel +425 very small bet.

Gee · 02-07-11, 06:10 AM

this is all to hard for me to find anything to put money on right now... :/

blackbeSSt · 02-07-11, 07:32 AM

damn i can't wait till we get some tennis closer to the states! these over night matches suck
