    all dogs

    I'm terrible at tennis capping, so I bet a tiny amount on each game. I find this a very tough sport to get a read on, but I'm trying to improve. Since I've been playing way too many favorites, I'm going to try keeping track of my dog bets and hope to see better results. Just flat betting for now, everything is 1u.

    Three dogs for today:

    Zverev +165

    Veic +150

    Scholtz +180

    Well that sucked. Zverev was up 5-2 in the second set, only to lose the next five games in a row. Veic won the first set 6-2 and was up a break in the second, only to lose the second and third sets in tiebreakers both times. Scholtz was easily outplayed.

    Result: 0-3, -3u
    YTD: -3u

    Next pick: Carlos Berlocq +475

    money favorites win 90% of the time. Parlay them and try to avoid the upsets. Much easier than picking the upsets.

    I have only parlayed favorites so far on the 3 active tourneys and I am up 17.82 units after one day. I still have an 8 and 9 player parlay just waiting on the rain delays and Karlovic. That will put the number through the roof if the upsets stay away.

    not sure where you pulled this stat from, but it's bs. money favorites do not win 90% of the time. not even close. even -900 favorites do not win 90% of the time.

    I should have clarified. I meant 90% of the favorites that I play in the first few rounds.
