tough day to pick some "easy" matches. all good favourites are tagged with heavy ML

**Goat Milk** · 05-26-10, 02:58 AM

i don't know why but i just think lacko can steal a set. or maybe o/u 28 is a trap. youz can easily finish him i just think the young guy has a bit of confidence after last match.

I would lean Rochus. Not only is he the more experienced player but the only person he's lost to since the beginning of April has been Gasquet and he's played in every clay tournament if I remember correctly with Gasquet always being the source of his demise. And remember, Gasquet's been the hottest player on clay lately so those losses aren't too surprising. Although he did beat Gasquet a few weeks before that as well. Besides Lopez, Reister hasn't won a match against anyone of real note on clay that I can think of, although I could be forgetting someone, and I'm not convinced that that win wasn't more of a result of Lopez's under-performance than Reister's excellent one. Watch Rochus go down 6-1 6-0 6-1 now that I've said this.

not that easy. H2H records indeed show lacko always manage to take a set from youzhny this year, but that is always the first set, which I can only translate Youzhny is still playing around. If today, Youzhny decide to show up early like prev match, I dont see Lacko stand any chance.

lol thanks for the prompt response. I am thinking it was just a fluke he beat lopez and am thinking the same thing you are that he just had an off day. I'm thinking the veteran pulls this one through. I have noticed though he usually drops the first set and rallies back

I think you're right. He did in Madrid against Youzhny so why not here? I could definitely see 4 or even 5 sets here if Lacko continues to play as strongly as he has been. It's up to Lacko though. If he lets Youzhny take control from the start, he's screwed.

Yep, it sucks.

Think I'm going to place a little on Dent for the upset though. And by a little, I mean a LITTLE

funny stats there. 4 out of 5 clay tour Rochus played, there was always Gasquet there

I wonder if he would have played Gasquet again in Monte Carlo TMS without that injury. It's like Gasquet stalk and follow every place Rochus go to get some free points.

**shari91** · 05-26-10, 03:19 AM

I would be screaming if I were him. Every damn time he won a match, he was on a collision course with Gasquet, only to get beat yet again. Poor guy.

**kingfish28** · 05-26-10, 03:27 AM

Hey shari great call on the suns game today 2h nocode sent me a msg free money on offer

which i gladly took off centrebet

. I was out fishing on my boat so it was nice earning money while enjoyin that, your a champ. Im on rochus with ya and agree with what you said lopez lost the match himself.

**nulldah** · 05-26-10, 03:32 AM

BOL shari. I set rule not to touch any total games in tennis and other than totals, I lean towards exact opposite of your picks, Reister n Benneteau LOL. Maybe I will try my luck on little parlay

Belucci
Cilic
Cibulkova
Petrova
Soderling

If this hits (I doubt it), I will go crazier parlay:
Kirilenko
Pennetta
Dulko
Monfils
Isner
Berdych
Wawrinka
Baghdatis

He told me you jumped on the Suns 2H!!! Congrats!

It seemed like he had given up all hope in the 3Q so I sent him a text calling him a jackass when the Suns were up by 9 in the 4th.

Glad to see you're on Rochus too. Don't really like much on the women's side today so hopefully the men are sweet to me tonight.

**Goat Milk** · 05-26-10, 03:34 AM

I like Reister

Best of luck nulldah! One of us will be happy tonight

All of the women I like today are too chalky to play of course

although I'll probably add Hercog and maybe Vinci as my women's dog of the day. I guess that would make her my bitch of the day?

Going to take a closer look at Wozniak and Petkovic as well.

**shari91** · 05-26-10, 03:42 AM

He could very well win. I just can't back him based on beating Lopez alone and I've seen nothing to make me want to take him other than that win, although I could definitely be missing something.

Have bought back part of my totals bets other than Tsonga/Ouanna. Maybe it's just because I'm tired at the moment but I'm not feeling too strongly about much today.

It should be both of us. I'm staying away from Reister and Benneteau, probably in-play if they can convince me. Both you and TB pick the exact picks, Rochus n Mayer.

**Goat Milk** · 05-26-10, 03:46 AM

GL today Shari

i'm tired as hell too got work in the a.m. i'll probably go in late

It's always good to have TB on the same side! Mayer I liked from the start but it's when I was typing out my response to dan that I thought it would be silly for me not to take him considering what I'd said. He's the better player and I can't back a one-match hot streak against a great player that I'm convinced didn't show up to play.

**SolidDala** · 05-26-10, 03:51 AM

Going against my man Söderling Shari!

Tagging along today for small chips, but not going against my fellow citizen

BOL today

Thanks Goat! The next little while is definitely going to take its toll on me between my son, tennis and the NBA. The time differences are a killer. At least you can go into work late. My son would fire me if I didn't turn up on time.

Thanks Dala! Believe me, I love Soderling. I just think there's value in his price so I figured I'd play him for small. I'm hoping at least for a good match so I win the over. Best of luck to you!

**SolidDala** · 05-26-10, 03:58 AM

Yer completely understand the value here

.. OK showtime

I also think based on clay skills, Mayer is better player. But scary stats of Benneteau try to lure me away. Since 2004, he always pass 2r, then fail 1r, n so on. While for Rochus, for a reason that I forgot alr, he's on my no bet list. I just can't back him at all.

**Tommy_de1st** · 05-26-10, 04:00 AM

Morning everyone
My parlay:
Cilic
Cibulkowa
Rochus
and Mayer (this one is "borrowed" from you

)

**Goat Milk** · 05-26-10, 04:03 AM

man i honestly want to take reister....but don't want to be against you guys plays

jackass i'm lovin it, I'll send him a txt shortly and call him that

. Had a little play after chatting with nocode yesterday on AMANMURADOVA, Akgul. I didnt realise the time otherwise I would have put this up earlier, she had an injury recently but at full strength she would win this game, dam wish I noticed the time to let you know although its a bit risky. Bol tonight

**Tommy_de1st** · 05-26-10, 04:05 AM

I looked at her! I'm not sure what my problem is today but I really just don't feel strongly about very much. I think it's partly being tired and partly that I've made such great money for awhile now that I'm waiting for the ceiling to cave in.

I'm looking right now at Petkovic although if I take her I'll wait until right before it's about to start because I think money will keep coming in for Svetlana. Kind of hard to go against the defending champion though but her form's been a bit shocking lately. Best of luck!! Feel free to post your plays in here whenever because I'd love to see them!

If you feel strongly about him, you should go for it! Sometimes looking at other people's plays can cause you to lose/not win money.

There's a couple of different sites I take a look at but yes, that's one of them. Although I must admit there are times when I take a look at the matches and pick based on what I feel to be true rather than what the stats may say.
