any thoughts on the grass tennis season?

[The Big Tease]

I am pretty new to this....but it sure looks like for the most part the most successful grass players are the big servers. my guess is that a ball cant bounce that high on grass so if it is coming in there quickly it has to be tougher to return if it is lower......kick you will have to correct me if i am wrong.


with that being said there are some interesting matchups and some different looking lines due to the court change.

here is what i am playing.....now if i am making a retarded pick, someone please correct me.


and by the way....i bet my left nut on ferrero (since i lost the right one on clijsters) and won another nut to replace the lose one, so I just had it installed today. i am now a fully functional 2 balled human being again. so i can get back to betting money and not testicles....lol

here is what looks good to me tomorrow morning.

nieminen over beck +110
sanguinetti -130 over waske
enqvist +125 over gambill
krajicek +125 over philippoussis
lopez -140 over davydenko


then a parlay of martin over mello, arthurs over dupuis, and rusedski over ginepri

you are correct.....GRASS is EXTREMELY FAST........of all the major surfaces it is BY FAR the fastest..........there are certain surfaces (some types of carpet) that are very fast....by by in large there is nothing faster then grass

ball bounces very low.......and it is totally diffrent from the red clay.........in fact.......you'll see many players just skip the grasscourt season all together (make up excuses that they are hurt...etc. etc.).........just befor Wimbledon you'll see guys "pull out" or guys tank their first round match just to take the prize money

so......in the men's game it is a huge difference.....not so much with the females.........the top girls could play on ice or broken glass and they'll still beat the lower ranked girls


#1 rule...........THE SERVE IS HUGE in grass court tennis.....big serve and you'll almost never lose your serve.......I remember Wayne Arthurs going into the round of 16's of Wimbledon and he had won something like 89% of the points on his first serve.......or the year Edberg lost in Wimbledon finals....and never lost his serve (tons of tiebreaks in grass court tennis)...ya lose your serve.....your done

as for plays.....haven't even looked......but look out for Waske....he can play on the grass......same holds true for Arthurs and Rusedski (huge serves).........and that krajicek/philippoussis match should have about 400 aces

 

[kickserv]

this should sum it up for ya:

French Open winner Juan Carlos Ferrero can be found at $101.00 (Bet 365) to win Wimbledon

and last years champ (this years semi finalist) can be found at $201.00

 

[bombercoops]

Funny you bring up Edberg's name kick. What an absolute champ that guy was. Signifies everything the game of tennis is and ever was!

 

[The Big Tease]

wow lots of tie breakers! this is crazy! seems like a crapshoot to me!

lol.....nice money management.

i could go 5-3 and lose over 5 units...lol

dumbass....



i parlayed the three favs that i mentioned....but i also parlayed nieminen, lopez and enqvist...lol

then my only stright wager was on krajicek, and i have a bad feeling about that one.....he will screw me somehow.

how do you have a winning record and lose a ton of money??? it defeats the whole point!
