I understand your motive. But I also think that putting in that number is simply misleading.
If you would bet coin flips then your number would actually mean a lot.
But you are betting heavy favorites and that's the reason your Win%% looks kinda nice.
In actuality, your Win%% should be way higher than you have given the odds you take.
If you would bet only -900 and up your Win %% would be in the 90% neighborhood.
So what? Does it mean your are the best thing since sliced bread? Does it mean your are actually making money?
Absolutely not.
You can do whatever is that you are doing, it is a public forum after all, but I think you should be fair to people who read your stuff and not mislead them with bogus numbers that mean absolutely nothing and their only purpose is to make you look a bit better than you really are.
GL
Sorry, but your response was WAY wrong buddy. When u said I only bet big favs, resulting in a higher win %, u were completely wrong. I rarely ever bet a single play at a high juice. I PARLAY my plays smartass!! So whether u take a single line at -130 OR parlay a few big players to PAYOUT -130, it's the same thing. That is not hard to understand. The parlays are difficult at times bec u need multiple plays to come in. But it doesn't make a darn bit of difference if I make a play on an underdog at +128 or if I play a parlay as a play to pay +128. Both are ONE play.
So saying my win % is misleading is a total lie. And I am defending this bec it ticks me off that trolls like you will say crap like that. Very rarely do I play a -400 to just straight up win. Almost all my plays are ranging from -160 to +130. So if my win % is over 50%, then that is based on a vast majority of the plays at good values (for tennis lines).
The only reason I am down 4 units is bec I DID bet a few big favs straight up & they lost. Otherwise I would be in the black after 350+ posted wagers. So don't for a second think that my win % is misleading. U aren't gonna find any plays straight up at -750 or -900 in my thread. Maybe 3 plays or so in my 350 wagers have I bet straight up on a -350 or -400 line. Every other play has been a good value or plus money.
And I never said I was the best thing since bread. I have never said anything even remotely close to that. I never say anything. I just freaking help people for free & share my tennis knowledge with others.
I definetly don't need someone like you in my thread. U contribute nothing to what we are trying to do here, make money. So I politely ask u to go away. Thanks.

I will post my record for the last 2 days, was really busy with the family yesterday. Looks like I have hit 6 of my last 7 plays, getting that overall back to the black soon I was on Berdych yesterday as well. I did not put my play up bec I had no phone & I was out from the house, I will just leave that play off the thread. I did preach quite a bit on other threads yesterday that I really like Berdy, but when he was down a break, I admit that I was nervous. Gonna be a great final I think today, I am very excited to watch this match. I have had a good feel for this tment this week, lets hope to hit one more before getting ready for the Open. BOL to ev1 today!!

Results from 8/23: (3-0) SWEEP DAY!!! @ (-101, -102, +134)
Play #1 - CASH IT The Tigers came back from 2 runs down to tie the game & eventually win in extra innings. Isner and Berdych both won in straight sets comfortably.
Play #2 - CASH IT The Cardinals blew out the Astros to win eaisly. Again, both Isner and Berdych won in straights.
Play #3 - CASH IT Querrey won in a third set tiebreak over Dog. Was a super tight match, glad he pulled that one out as a slight underdog! Isner won in straights fairly comfortably.

Love the pick man. Berdych won 70% of second serve points against querrey yesterday.Also he can return serves ok too. Not too mention way better at Rallys. Best of luck to us. I parlayed him with Kvitova.

I think this is going to be a great match. I am sure we will see at least one breaker. The one thing that concerns me is how fresh Isner will be after that long 3 set match yesterday. Berdych is a very good player and he is looking to do the same thing that Isner did last year by winning this tment & using momentum into the Open. Berdych also has a very good serve & I expect him to serve much better today. After his shaking start yest, he destroyed Querrey by getting 18 break chances on that huge serve. Querrey finished with almost 20 aces, but the second serve points is where he did so much damage. If Isner serves firsts alot today, we are gonna see some breakers for sure bec I honestly think that Berdych will not get broken & will prob have around 12 aces today himself. If Isner has to hit alot of second serves & Berdych can get them back in play, then Isner will be at a big disadvantage. Overall I think Berdych is the better player all around, this match will be close if Isner serves really good or Berdych will win in straights and take this title IMO....

No fukking way Sock has the biggest upset of Round 1 & it goes against me!!! Mayer F is ranked 23 in the world!!! And he is losing to Jack Sock?!?? I can't fing believe he has to come back from 2 sets down now. So if I put Sock in my parlay, then 3 units pays 30??? I hope Mayer retires or something!!! Omg.

Trainers out with Mayer now. Something is not right!!! If he retires, his play is cancelled & the parlay would still pay decent. Rest of the plays look good. If he can't play, he needs to shake hands. Not go piss away another set!!
Well, he is gonna play. If he gets broke, I hope he shakes hands. Or he needs to play his fing level of tennis!!

Mayer is not even running for balls & he is still playing! I don't believe the guy is still playing. He won't retire. He is standing 10 feet behind the baseline rallying & letting balls go for winners. WTF??????
Mayer retires!!! Thank goodness!! Something was def not right & I had NO clue he was not 100%! So happy he didn't play 10 more mins of crap tennis & just lose horribly. Almost all books require match to finish to have action. Mayer saved a ton of people money by doing the smart thing. Glad I called that retirement after his break. Whew!!!

there u go..u got ur wish..fked the rest of us on 5dimes though
there u go..u got ur wish..fked the rest of us on 5dimes though
I am sorry that the retirement screwed you. I think that 5dimes is one of the only books left that takes action after the first set is over. MOST books now require the entire match to be finished to have action on the play or its cancelled. This is one of the main reasons I left 5dimes. Bovada has the full match rule, but the tennis lines are not good there. Betonline is another one, the lines are not bad. I went to Bookmaker, who has the full match rule also. The lines here are pretty good I think, very similar to 5dimes. That would prob be my first recommendation. But the full match rule has helped on MORE than one occasion. You might want to look at switching if you play alot of tennis wagers. Just an idea, it has helped me for sure.

Don't know if anyone watched that Cilic match last night. Freaking amazing!!! He loses the first two sets to Matosevic & then comes back and wins 3 sets in a row comfortably!!! I had 2 parlays hanging on that play, so I was very happy to see him wake up & kick Matosevics ass!!
I am going to update the last few days of plays & then I will repost my plays for today so far. If I have another play for the afternoon, I will post it asap. Otherwise, my card is complete for today. The last play was on 2 womens matches, only threw 100 on it just for a kick. Good luck to ev1 today!!!
