BET THE HOOK's Tennis 2010

[BET THE HOOK]

Can you just explain how you bet nadal when he as $1.01 - 1.05 in his last 2 matches? Obviously he lost his last one but you've never once explained how you think people should bet crappy odds like that. $1000 to win $10 or stick him in a parlay with his one cent odds where he screws you when he losess as these big favourites do quite often in 250 and 500 tourney?

Thanks and best of luck.

OK here is my reply to your question which I have answered on earlier pages of the thread. I list all the players I like and anything that wins is a win and anything that loses is a loss. On 90% of these selections I have straight wagers but on some of the picks I parlay the chalk together so I dont take a big hit but sometimes I lay the cash. I make 50+ wagers a day and work 90+ hours a week so there is no way I can list all my plays for you daily but the jest of it is if the player can cost me a loss at -1500 I also take credit for the win on the chalk as long as I have a wager on it. Also as a note on some of the chalk like Nadal for example I have him in several parlays. I only count each selection as 1 win or 1 loss.
There are some players here that keep track of units here but I dont. I will say that I have taken payouts 8 of the last 10 weeks so I am winning. I have had guys try to explain to me that I will get no respect until I track units but I aint shopping for respect, I am playing for cash and getting it. I just keep track of my tennis plays this way for my own benefit and players should make wagers the way they like and can afford too. I will post my tennis plays daily and there are alot of guys that stop by and get my picks and have for some time. Alot of guys donate points which are appreciated but not necessary. Play my selections any way you wish or just compare them to your own guys but I track them this way for my own benefit and if anyone gets any use from them I am glad to see yall here. I hope that explains this for the final time but I am sure I will have to go through this again in 10 pages but thats OK too.

By the way for my purposes only I am now:
571-153 with 57 DOG WINNERS and 39 DOG LOSERS

[BET THE HOOK]

Tonights plays are as follows:Simon,Davydenko,Djokovic,Ferrer, Soderling,Murray,Gasquet,Monfils,Nadal,P eer,Wozniacki,Dementieva,Petrova,and the dog plays are Kirilenko+275,Isner+115,and a small play on Chardy+275

[badbyzdmx]

[ink]

keep it up BTH

[BudMan'sTopPlays]

Hook..... I am really new to tennis betting. I am wanting to know where you all are getting point spreads from? My books never had them. Do they appear closer to match time? I got $500 in my SB so which play should I let it all ride on?

[BET THE HOOK]

I wager at Bookmaker and 5Dimes for parlays and use BetOnline a little for straight wagers because they dont allow parlays. Also that is my record on selections made. I sometimes parlay selestions together and also sometimes have several wagers including the same selections. Also those books have them up all day usually.
I would wager on Soderling -275 if I had to pick one matck or maybe even Ferrer -500 but the payout is less. You could also parlay them together if you like. Also Wozniacki-330 is pretty solid.
Tonights plays are Nadal,Murray,Ferrer,Soderling,Monfils,Me lzer,Wozniacki,and Petrova. My lone dog play is a small play on Ivanovic+175.

[ROYAJA8]

Just take Melze today. Easy win.

[Yezzir]

Glad I tailed you on Ana.

She played some brilliant stuff, old Ana.

[BET THE HOOK]

BudMan I hope you played those straight or parlayed or something. After I replied to your post I liked it even more and doubled my Bookmaker balance overnight. The Ana Ivanovic +175 play juiced those parlays pretty well. Glad you hammered that one too YEZZIR. I am pretty hot on my dogs in the last few months. Most of my dog losses are from long ago before I changed my system and criteria.
591-155 with 60 DOG WINNERS and 40 DOG LOSERS and the last 2 days are 11-2 and 9-0 so I am gonna ride it while its hot.

[ringemup]

wut happens if a book has graded a set wagering incorrectly, but for my benefit? do they change grading on tennis wagers i kno theyd obviously correct grading mistakes on bigger events. i wonder if i should alert them on their error.

[BET THE HOOK]

They will only catch it if somebody has the other side of the bet and calls if for their money. It will probably get corrected.

[ringemup]

i guess they do not systematically review their grading on wagers otherwise damn hope they dont catch it

[BET THE HOOK]

if its a small amount play good guy and tell them. A lot of managers will reward you for being honest. If its a lot wait and see what happens.

[BET THE HOOK]

Tonights plays are Djokovic,Soderling,Davydenko,Zvonareva,N a Li,Nadal,and the dogs are Monfils and Ivanovic while she is hot.

[BET THE HOOK]

Cant believe I didnt play Isner. He fell under the system criteria for my dogs and I missed it. I guess he was only a slight dog ay +120. I did get the big one which was Monfils over Roddick though that made up for it.

[BET THE HOOK]

Tonights plays are Djokovic,Nadal,Ferrer,Wozniacki and Zvonareva

keep the $$ flowing BTH!

[Brian891]

Great call on Monfils!!! How strongly do u feel about ferrer? Does old man river finally run out of gas tonight?

[BET THE HOOK]

Sorry there were no dogs this evenging but for some reason Peer looked good to me but Caroline is just playing too good right now.

[BET THE HOOK]

I like alot of games in CFB tomorrow but my 2 favs for value are Alabama -7 and -300 ML and USC -10 and -325 ML. Playing all four lines and plan on cashing all 4.

[BudMan'sTopPlays]

So what are your tennis plays for today BTH??? I am thinking of going with Nadal for sure. Sounds like a solid play and an easy $180 in my pocket. I am guessing that it gets harder to pick when the finals get here. I did make some money off Roddick last week. My book only has Nadal/Monfils Caroline/Vera and Novak/David..... Decisions decisions any info would be great. thanks

[BET THE HOOK]

That's the same matches I have. Wozniacki is a lock for sure. Novak is a sure winner and on paper Nadal is a bunch better but Monfils is on a tear so I may make a small play on him or just leave it alone.

gl with ur plays today/tonight

[BET THE HOOK]

Waiting on Caroline now.

[badbyzdmx]

i live in vegas and i thought the Wozniacki match was at 430 am my time, can someone tell me what time it starts for goodness sakes (Pacific Standard Time)

[BET THE HOOK]

130 AM I think. Tonights plays are Wozniacki,Verdasco,Tsonga,Wawrinka, and Bagdhatis.

[beeps220]

i live in vegas and i thought the Wozniacki match was at 430 am my time, can someone tell me what time it starts for goodness sakes (Pacific Standard Time)

Rained out last night, starts at 4:30 AM Pac time Monday

[BET THE HOOK]

Glad you came on with the right time. I logged back on to correct what I told him earlier.

[BET THE HOOK]

Also played Groth,Melzer,and GG Lopez

[badbyzdmx]

thanks guys, i kindda over did it with her so im hoping for a win. i woke up this morning half scared to death to check the score to find out the game was still pending. i guess ill have to go through it again tomorrow, i just might stay up and watch the score live... btw is there a way to watch the match online via a free stream or something?

[ink]

on the woz train bol tonight bth!

[BET THE HOOK]

I just got a new time for the Wozniacki match. It is 4:30 AM Pacific or 6:30 AM Eastern or even better RIGHT NOW.
Got a few wins so far from Tsonga and G G Lopez and Caroline should cash. Bagdhatis is tied 3-3 right now.

[BET THE HOOK]

Melzer is also a win and Verdasco is underway. I should maybe hedge all these parlays that are waiting on Wozniacki to ensure profit. No way, were gonna cash this one for sure.

[BET THE HOOK]

How in the hell does verdasco go from up 5-1 second set to down 6-5? Bum!
