    526-461 +43.18

    Taking Lisicki on the ml. Vesnina off a title at Eastbourne but Lisicki has better numbers on grass and Lisicki did beat sharapova here at wimbledon last year before falling in the quarters. Lisicki has always done really well here at wimbledon ( two quarterfinal appearances and one semi) and looked impressive against Schiavone.

    Lisicki -146 risk 1.46


    Cibulkova -1.5 sets -142








    Stosur -1.5 sets -300 risk 3


    Tomic ml -155 risk 1.55


    I am never confident with this guy but he should win if he doesnt mail it in.


    cmon tomic


    Lamborghini's, caviar
    Dry martinis, Shangra-la
    I got a burning feeling
    Deep inside of me
    It's a yearning
    But, I'm gonna to set it free


    I'm goin' in- to Sin City
    I'm gonna win- in Sin City
    Where the lights are bright
    Through the town tonight
    I'm gonna win in Sin City


    Oh, I'm gonna roll you, baby
    Snake eyes, wooo!


    So, spin that wheel, cut that pack
    And roll those loaded dice
    Bring on the dancing girls
    And put the champagne on ice

      Great calls, mate ! I was already leaning with Lisicki and Tomic, but also tailed you on Stosur and Cibulkova. Funny clips and pictures too. Thanks ! I hope this is not your last post on Wimby.

        Thanks frugal. I dont think we are going to get alot of tennis in today, looks like centre court matches. I am going to take a punt on Melzer when he does play but I am thinking about that over on the total as well. Robredo is poor on grass but Murray did drop a few sets at queens club. I like the parlay the best, Ferrer should have plenty of recovery time and has a great chance to go deep here and should have beat murray here last year. He could end up number 2 in the world after this tourney, this 31 year old just gets stronger with age.

        530-461 +47.18

        Melzer +109 risk 1

        Murray -2.5 sets -238 risk 2.38

        Robson/Murray/ Ferrer/Atlanta dream wnba -204 risk 4.08

        Almagro/Jerzy o42 -115 risk 1.15

                      Thanks FG. Puig just ran out of steam, still very young but could have won that one and should have covered wager, Haas was just overwhelmed from the beginning but he had his chances to cover the over and +2.5 sets at least. I won the kubot -2.5 bet but did lose the seppi wager.

                      Lisicki, Radwanska and Li all left in the same bracket and Li and Radwanska, the highest seeded players left in the tournament, have to play today. That other bracket is pretty weak. Bartoli, Stephens, Kvitova and Flipkens. Kvitova is still in the top 10 in the world but really hasnt been in good form this year.

                      The only one that really stands out to me is Bartoli/Stephens, I really like Bartoli here. I hate going against Sloane but she hasnt really looked that impressive in the matches I have seen her play and all the matches I have seen her play at wimbledon have been 3 set affairs. She has been pretty lucky to pull through at times and doesnt really have great numbers this year at all.

                      Bartoli has some great numbers at wimbledon and good stats on the surface, always worried about her serve and keeping it together for a whole match but going with the experience here.

                      544-467 +58.07

                      Bartoli -116

                      Bartoli -1.5 sets +211

                      Bartoli -1.5 games +103

                      Li -149

                      Lisicki -285

                          Thanks for the insight! GL. Not sure I like the chalk on Lisicki, she might have a letdown after her big upset. Like she did at the last Wimbledon after beating pova.

                            You may be right. Kanepi seems to be the favorite on tennis insight but I will take the German on grass, huge difference in surface stats here and Lisicki loves this tourney. Great numbers here and Lisicki has looked pretty phenomenal so far

                              Greg, I was clearly wrong. And thanks for convincing me to go on Bartoli !

                                  I forgot to put units risked or to win on last post so just going to grade all todays wagers risk1/win1.

                                  Thanks FG and ohumad. I am glad you went against Stephens fg, I have not been impressed with any of the matches I have seen her play but Bartoli wasnt exactly stellar out there either, especially on serve. Stephens won something like 4 total points on her serve after that delay. I dont like making these -285 (1.35) type wagers but I am pretty meticulous in recording my wagers and the prices and that -190 to -330 range have been some of my most profitable wagers,

                                  Ohumad, I worked for about two years with a fews guys and our goal was to develop software for horse racing, our owner expanded it to include other sports but the tennis models that were developed were never successful. I researched some other software out there like sportpunter and there was a guy on ti who had an excel program and a few others I have seen that seemed pretty good, but in my experience I havent had much luck. I just try to use my limited programming knowledge and automate as much stuff as I can. I work in the stock market and and gamble as well so I just pick my spots and try not to not waste too much time. I would like to get into totals more and I have been collecting alot of data but I have been mainly trying to learn about tennis markets. As an American, we arent the most sophisticated gamblers when it come to tennis, its just the last few years I have really learned about betfair and with all the problems with my offshore it just seems sbo,pinnacle and betfair are the main books to deal with. Learning about betfair and trading has really been an undertaking for me but there is some great stuff out there I use.

                                  I have been reading Jeff sackman for years and talked a little with him and he has a great site at tennis abstract that is a great tool and tennis insight has some incredible tools on that site, the TI model and all their filters are pretty phenomenal. Sackmann is brilliant. On court is great for getting alot of data but I only use certain things from there.

                                  I came through tennis as a huge tennis fan who decided to gamble on tennis, more than a gambler who just decided to start wagering on tennis. So there is only so much I will rely on data, these forums are still a great tool for finding out about injuries and stuff and seeing what people think about a players latest matches and recent form. It would be nice to have a rotoworld for tennis for injuries but these forums are pretty good. Some smart punters on alot of these boards.

                                  These are sackmanns numbers to win wimbledon title. Irregardless of numbers like these, it looks like he likes del potro to advance tomorrow, I am betting on Ferrer wednesday come hell or high water. Ferrer is my favorite player and one of my most profitable. 5'9, maybe lol , of pure spanish fight. Second incredible year in a row. Delpotro has been pretty flawless at wimbledon, hasn't lost a set at wimbledon and has only dropped serve twice. Ferrer has really been tested but we will get our money worth no doubt from Ferrer at least, the over should hit if Del Potro is in good shape and takes this. Ferrer will fight. If Ferrer wins this , I wouldnt be surprised to see this go under, if Del potro wins it I know Ferrer will give me a chance for my over to hit.

                                  Tennisabstract likes Murray and really likes Radwanska to win it all.

                                    Greg, thanks for an interesting and very informative post. I like all your plays fortomorrow. I have Ferrer to win the quarter and I probably will not hedge (or maybe partially hedge only). I am not sure that Berdych can take a set from Djoker: the h2h stats are really not great for Berdych; but then again I have not watched a lot of men's tennis lately.

                                    I really do not understand why Lisicki is such a favorite to win against A-Rad, ditto with Bartoli. Both matches look closer to coin-flips, with nerves playing a major role. Flipkens is crafty enough to make Bartoli move, especially forward, and Bartoli cannot do that well. A-Rad has a great track record and commits very few UEs. Anyway, I am not a very good tennis capper, so I will see what you and the other forum experts will say tomorrow.

                                    GL with the men's quarters!

                                      Good luck today Fg. I think Berdych will have a good shot to take a set, even Haas had a very good chance but just imploded after a wretched start. Nole looks unstoppable so far but I think we get a tiebreak in here and Berdych can cover this.

                                      I really like Ferrer today but we shall see

                                        Greg - great links re Sackman, I've just checked them out briefly but look like some great stats in there (mind you I'm yet to see one successful stats better, in any individual sport not just tennis)

                                        His numbers for the men's quarters suggest there is big value on Kubot and Berdych, smaller value on Del Po and line on Murray/Verdasco is about right.

                                        It would be interesting to know what factors he uses and with at weighting - how useful have you found these prediction %'s in the past?

                                          Interesting, thanks for the share greg and yes that Sackmann guy is into some serious stuff! Doesn't he have an archive of his Wimbledon forecast? I would love to get deeper into the analytics. Way above my head but very cool:

                                            Thanks ben and ohumad, tennisabstract is great as well because it is one of the few sites that has alot of data on challengers. I really never bet challengers alot until recently, there wasnt alot to go on out there from what I found. I would just use Tennisabstract as a tool more than an actual predictive model to base wagers on. I have found the site to be a perfect fit, Tennis Insight has some great filters on their site and there is alot of stuff on tennisabstract that isnt on TI. Sackmann was probably right about Del potro but I was really surprised to see Ferrer fall in 3, pretty depressing day. Del Potro was making some insane shots but it is what it is. Incredible tourney by Del Potro.

                                            Frugal, I am seeing radwanska +3 games and Flipkens +3 out there now. Radwanska is probably one of the smartest players and coolest customers on the womens tour, this is the wta and you know how serving can be. Bartoli looked horrible against Stephens on serve and Flipkens has had a phenomenal month. 3 games is a gift in any of these matches. I know there are concerns about Radwanskas leg injury. I saw this in tennis magazine

                                            "Agnieszka Radwanska, who reached the Wimbledon semifinals despite a right leg injury, says pain won't stop her from playing on Thursday against Sabine Lisicki.

                                            “I think if it's the end of a Grand Slam you don't really think about the pain or anything else,” she said. “You just fight until the end. That's what I was doing today. And I think I don't know how much pain I have to have just to give up. I think there's no limit.”

                                            We saw how much the knee hindered del potro today, I like Radwanska and Flipkens and the +3 games. Bartolis serve is always tense viewing.

                                            548-472 +54.95

                                            Radwanska +3 -145 risk 1.45

                                            Flipkens +3 -155 risk 1.55

                                              Greg. Thanks for the advice. Bad day today with the Byrdman falling apart too early and Ferrer out. I did comment a few days earlier that Ferrer was making too many UEs, should have listened to myself and hedged on Del Po more aggressively. Made some of that money back in soccer so it is all good.

                                              I am just not sure that taking +3 vs +2.5 is worth that much juice. Did you actually check how often this makes a difference ? E.g. for A-rad it is -145 for +3 and -110 for +2.5 games, big difference.

                                                All predictions were off the mark for the men's quarters, the only match that got close was the one Sackman had at representative odds. Still more data is always a good thing.

                                                Agree with frugalgambler, with that type of juice you would need to be hitting more like 60% of the time which is near on impossible. Anyways - BOL.

                                                    Sorry if you tailed on Ferrer and that berdych +1.5 set wager frugal, really disappointed Ferrer didnt get that last set and make a match of it. Berdych had his chances for that to cover, tough day all around . You wagering on Copa Libertadores or any mls tonight? I am on Atletico +.5 and Sporting KC and really like the Sounders tonight.

                                                      No problem. I am on Sounders -1/-1.5. let's hope they score one more and was on Vancouver +1. Did not play the Copa games. Check out the MLS thread in the soccer forum: they guy seems to be good and knowledgeable. I also made some money on U20 betting this morning.

                                                      You did not answer my question: I asked if you thought that betting +3 vs +2.5 games for A-Rad tomorrow made a difference.

                                                        It would seem that Sackman is over valuing dogs, at least in comparison to Vegas odds. If you'd used his % you'd have only been led the right direction with Del Po, that's what I meant by being off the mark.

                                                        Great resources though, you are good at finding this stuff. Out of interest any particular cappers outside of SBR you follow?

Yeah you are right, Gulbis is capable of smashing a racquet and losing a set anywhere to anyone at anytime. The games handicap is probably safer and I like Gulbis in some parlays today. Gulbis has looked impressive during clay season but has run into Ferrer. Purely on Bagnis and Gulbis stats and a really rough 5 setter for Bagnis taking a punt Gulbis here, but it is Gulbis and you never know what you are going to get. Really liking Cornet and Nieminen as well. Cheers

                                                                    Adding a total on Tursunov/Querrey. Both have atrocious clay numbers and recent form, I like Tursunov here but Querrey serve capable of taking this to 4.

Great serve and forehand, a little wild with backhand but really strong shots, good serve and volley. Only third match I have seen of her but she was phenomenal today, even Andy Murray praised her

                                                                        She needs some serious physical conditioning improvements and lose some weight but will be fascinating to watch her. I dont get excited about young american talent that much anymore as the latest few have been huge letdowns but she may be one to watch.

                                                                        If you didnt sit in for twitter with Weston you didnt miss much, way too short at 30 minutes.He doesnt use oncourt (?), harvests his own in play data and uses it more in play wagering than watching matches(?), doesnt trade in other sports etc. Too short today to get much but I like the fact pinnacle has these, Pinnacle will be having some of the twitter Q&A for world cup. I was reading @tennisrankings stuff about break back statistics and Cornet, would have buried me even more live betting if I wasnt watching the match and how she was struggling. Weston mentioned he relies more on stats for in play for live wagering but the stats on townsend is so insignificant at this level.
