Smitty's Wimbledon Thread

[Smitty]

figured i may as well get this started. let's see if i can handle the grass as well as the clay. probably not.

shevchenko (+425) as noted in jord's thread, mannarino can hardly move today. he may drop out of this match. but if he plays, i'd take +425 with a ham sandwich. well, a ham sandwich with an above-average serve-and-volley game.
goffin (+120)
goffin in straight sets (+425)
lauren davis (+370) i'm just gonna bet against pegula on grass.

plenty more to come

what part of "#6 singles and sometimes #1 doubles on my high school team" didn't you understand?

and, uh, it's in the correct forum, so not a damn thing you can do about it.

man, we gotta get those emojis back.

 

[kickserv]

man, we gotta get those emojis back.

Jack said by Mid July....and Jack would not lie.

So yeah......they will be back eventually

 

[Smitty]

shevchenko down to +370. pretty sure i moved the line.

well yeah, obviously you did.

 

[Smitty]

ok, let's try this parlay...

rublev
musetti
hurkacz
sinner in straight sets
isner/munar first set over 9.5 games

+152

 

[Smitty]

looks like krygios pulled out. too bad his dad didn't!! hey-o!!

ok, guess i'm betting on guido pella for the 2nd straight grand slam.

pella (+235)
pella to win at least 2 sets (+110)

and, yes, still planning on betting against tsitsipas. just not with thiem.

[Smitty]

1-1 (+0.52) with shevchenko & pella pending

Smitty wins the parlay........look out, he's going to get all cocky again

shevchenko (+425)

Well the big underdog Shev got destroyed, but Pella comes through, so I think Smitty is happy

 

[Smitty]

3-1 (+3.97) with shevchenko pending. mannarino is moving a lot better today. the extra day of rest certainly didn't hurt.

typed that hours ago and forgot to post it. gettin' old...

ok, now 3-2 (+2.97)

any time smitty makes a profit gambling, smitty is certainly happy.

i have some parlays pending that i never got around to posting. really need jarry to not drop another set in his current match. and a clean sweep from zverev would be ideal.

i did bet zhizhen. may have gotten him at +110, not sure. he's at +125 now. i'll count that against my record, since the match hasn't started.

i will definitely bet murray against tsitsipas, and i'm tempted to bet mannarino against medvedev. but if he has to actually play again tomorrow, that's not ideal.

andy murray (-140)

well, i did it again. typed this out this morning, then didn't post it. since i said i was betting him, i'll still include it in my record. the match is currently 5-4 in the 2nd. not looking great for the old man.

3-3 (+1.97)

 

[kickserv]

You are really having trouble with this whole Internet thing aren't you.🫠

 

[Smitty]

i'll try to remember to hit the "post reply" button this time.

adding a parlay. kick won't like it, because it's -160.

zverev (-1.5 sets) & bublik (-1.5 sets)

kick, you can change zverev to straight sets and it'll pay +131.

you know what... i'm going to regret this, but i'm adding this parlay...

zverev (straight sets)
bublik (-1.5 sets)
ymer

+215

 

[Smitty]

You are really having trouble with this whole Internet thing aren't you.🫠

damn series of tubes. as i understand it.

i put way too much on murray. he's up a break in the 3rd, and draftkings still has my cash-out for less than the original bet. even though he's currently -180 for the match, as opposed to the original -140.

 

[Smitty]

draftkings is fucking ridiculous. murray is up 2 sets to 1, and i can now cash out for... a $9 profit!! wow!!

and, of course, i gotta wait until tomorrow.

also, i have this parlay... which is clinched. but it doesn't look like they'll pay until the match is over. how else am i supposed to blow my winnings NOW???
