Shari's tennis plays

**nulldah** · 07-27-10, 01:56 AM

I'm glad you only take one slight favorite as your play today, Shari. This just make me more convinced to go with my plan: bet 0.1 unit at every single damn dog on games today

At least, the feeling of losing dogs can be less painful and most likely I can end up black at the end of day.

For starter, I chose 25 random matches on sbr book and bet the dogs

Best of luck today, Shari. Hopefully, we see more tankers and fixers around

**nulldah** · 07-27-10, 02:00 AM

ok, I think I may need to provide little bit reasoning before I'm being called nuts or whatever.

Quick look at all the games today show me that most underdogs are qualifiers or those that have play at hard court prior to the tournament concerned. At the other end, most favourites only have this match as their first hard-court matches.

If you're going to take one, I'd suggest Cirstea. I just saw that TB's on her as well and it's always nice to see someone else backing the same player as I am.

Hey paco, If you dont mind me asking, where are you from?

**Daveyboy** · 07-27-10, 03:16 AM

Well yesterday was a shocker. I'm feeling Melanie Oudin today - who's with me?

**CindyCryBaby** · 07-27-10, 03:38 AM

pretty interesting that there has been 120,000 wagered on the Cisterea match on betfair while the next closest wager for the Istanbul tournament is 18,000. However, there hasn't been much line movement in the Cisterea match to really indicate potential fixing of any sort.

gogo cisterrea

That's definitely interesting. Wonder what the deal is there. I'm not sure that I like that the line hasn't moved. I'm going to go check things out.

hard to beat when akgur first serve like 93% and Cirstea only won 1 of her 10 second serve so far

Those numbers will even out over the course of the game. She won't keep that number up while Cirstea should be able to bring her numbers up. Not watching it myself, hows it going?

Don't freak out yet. It's the WTA remember? A lot can change very quickly and it sometimes takes these women a few games or even a set to find their feet.

**shari91** · 07-27-10, 04:35 AM

There - she just broke her back. Now she just needs to consolidate it with this game.

Now it start to even out

**nulldah** · 07-27-10, 04:41 AM

btw, i'm on akgur. Not that I like her, but it's more like 50-50 match to me and I don't want to touch any favourite today. Let's see who win

At my book, they were both -110 so I just went with who I thought would win. But yeah, I agree with you about avoiding favourites this week. I took a couple again today but I'm not laying the chalk. Only flat betting. If they win, they win. If not, it won't do me too much damage. Screw paying big prices on any of these players. It's not worth it.

**WalkingLuckCharm** · 07-27-10, 04:46 AM

haha back and forth huh ?

Betting on the women, especially this week, is not for the faint of heart. A lot of ups and downs in these matches. If you want to preserve your sanity or if you're the type who gets worried quickly, I'd suggest you stick with the men. Those matches may suck too but they tend to be a little more consistent.

**salvador_7764** · 07-27-10, 04:49 AM

Whos winning an cristea game

**shari91** · 07-27-10, 04:55 AM

It's back on serve again. Aman's leading 5-4 but Cirstea's serving now. I feel sorry for anyone who paid to sit there and watch this mess.

Yea, the odds are pretty even with these two players. But since sbr and betfair offer akgur as higher odds, i just took her.

so far not looking good though. 4 out of 6 fav already won first set

Actually I prefer betting them inplay so that I can know who still rusty or tanking the match. But since today I will be away from computer for a long time, I just do it this way. If most of them lose, the worst is I down 3 units on 30 matches.

I can't wait to see my account balance once I return later

**WalkingLuckCharm** · 07-27-10, 04:57 AM

Go girl

Guessing she'll be broke in her next service game for the set

These up and down matches are good for traders on Betfair! Need to start doing that

**nulldah** · 07-27-10, 05:00 AM

on a site note, why the hell the books put hanescu as underdog???!?!?! It's very obvious he's being back to tanker or fixer or whatever you want to call it

Anyway, best of luck to all of you today. I need to go now

**shari91** · 07-27-10, 05:05 AM

Yeah, I'm going to go take a nap with my son. This match is a shocker. I'd rather sleep and just look at the score later. Sleep's much more exciting than this.

**WalkingLuckCharm** · 07-27-10, 05:08 AM

haha true, sleep beats crap games!

**WalkingLuckCharm** · 07-27-10, 05:23 AM

hanescu aint looking good but cirstea is

**Gee** · 07-27-10, 05:23 AM

hey, where are you watching this shari?
