    thanx. how often does some1 post a thread on sbr with ridiculous goals that they cant really achieve?
    i have done this in the past and 2-3x ur bankroll is very achievable, as i have shown.
    although the tourney isnt over, im pretty close to closing up shop until the french open

    mayb a play on nadal and maybe clijsters tonite

    What do you think that dolgopolov guy is thinking right about now? He's 3 wins away from a major title, his only problem is the 3 people he has to beat are likely Murray, Nadal and Federer, maybe Djokovic instead. Good luck beating those 3 in a row in a major, lol.

    Doesnt make sense...

    Before the Cilic bet you had 4650, but you bet 4800 to win 100. Your starting stack was more than 1500, unless Im missing something here.

    Wozniacki was safe in the end, but man you have to lay off bets to win 0.1% of your roll, just not smart betting.

    I'm liking Djokovic/Murray/Nadal parlay, paying something like -160. I have new-found confidence in Nadal from last night, and Murray will roll Dolgo. Not betting too much of my bankroll on it though as Djokovic is known to be a choker.

    BOL.

    If you're looking for a guaranteed 6-7% return, look also at Nadal, Murry and Djokovic to at least win one set paying about -1600. You'll have to tie your money up for the next 24 hours though.

    This is why having a decent bankroll pays off - I'm actually quite happy to risk $2000 to win $140 in the right circumstances. But you only do this type of thing in slams, it will murder you on the normal circuit.

    luck?? luck had ZERO factor in me winning my bet.
    i made the bet with wozi up 5-2 with her serving for the match.
    luck is schiavone breaking after being down 40-0

    Which book was offering this line? I would have bet every last penny i had on that line, but i missed it and ended up going light on the Djokovic ML. That's what i get for waiting until the last minute on some bets. Also which books in general have the best lines for the prop bets like this for tennis? I see them on 5dimes and bodog pretty often, who else out there has them regularly? You seem to be the king of the tennis prop bets, just raking it in on those lines later in this tourney, nice job. I've been right too and doing well all tourney but I've been betting parlays and ML's none of the prop or set bets yet but i need to start doing those because they give you room for error, i just need to know where to get the best lines on them.

    i use 5dimes, they usually have the props up pretty early
    ur winning limit is capped at 250
    they are usually up until the last 10 minutes b4 the match starts
    but u shud grab them early, as they usually shoot up quickly near game time
    i cant believe i didnt notice them earlier, its been easy money

    im prolly gonna do it again for the nadal match

    Oh ya easy money. I'd straight take that Nadal ML for a better price but the prop line on that is safer.
    The semis are going to be awesome from a fan standpoint. Murray and Djokovic are both in form and Nadal and Federer speak for themselves. Whoo!

    Not D.Ferrer In 5 Sets* -2500 vs D.Ferrer Wins 3-2


    but i decided to take this one:

    whhaaat? how does it ever go to -12500 .. was it during the last commercial break or something? i'm REALLY glad this worked out for ya! (because i have lost a tripled-up bank before, although not in tennis. and it felt THE WORST.)
