J Capriati to beat A Mauresmo at $1.28 .............8 units


Yes that's not a typo.......four units on Schalken! The key will be the first set.........$4.50 is a great price.........can't pass that up! Schalken is playing extremely well......only problem is so is Hewitt, should be a great match!

Thursday Picks
------------------

Scale 1 to 10 units


S Schalken to beat L Hewitt at $5.50 ...............4 units

N Lapentti to beat D Nalbandian at $1.83 ............6 units


yes Schalken is 0-2 vs. Hewitt this year but I like the four units on Schalken! The key will be the first set.........$5.50 is a great price.........can't pass that up! Schalken is playing extremely well......only problem is so is Hewitt, should be a great match!.............once again the key will be the first set..........Schalken can get it done! And one more thing despite what others may think Schalken is unafraid of Hewitt, and will be more patient against him this time around. Look for Schalken to punish some of Hewitt's second serves as well as sneak into the net every now and then!



As for Lapentti this guy is a fighter (20-8 in 5 setters) and as I said last time Nalbandian has no business getting this far......I still can't figure out how he beat Arthurs!.....enough is enough......this guys run is going to end....Lapentti will win! And don't worry about Lapentti's fitness......he'll be fine.......all the rain delays have helped him..........he got enough rest! One more stat for ya........These players have never played each other at an ATP or Grand Slam event.


Good luck

ahh well 0-2 on Thursday action....................




soooooooooooooooooooooooo close with Schalken so so close 7-5 in the 5th

(4 units on Schalken would have been so so nice!!!)

then my 75-1 shot Krajicek looses 9-7 in the 5th :thefinger


and then to top it all off Lapentti actually loses a 5 set match....he goes down 6-4 in the fifth


Man.......what the fu** was up with all that!

[Houston Gambler]

I heard that.Krajicek 1st serve percentage in the 5th set was awfull.
Agree Kickserve,I had Schalken at 100/1.

Kicker,can you answer above question to Pawagatsi?

 

[kickserv]

this should answer your question!:

and Krajicek was just tired.....very very tired....this isn't women's tennis where your on the court for one hour ya know!!!

 

[Houston Gambler]

Thanks for sharing Kickserve.

We should have bet the matches to go 5 sets today.
Took Krajicek over Flipper day before but didn't think 1 set would affect his serving today.
Took Schalken today because even if he beat Hewitt was scared my 100/1 future would not hold up for the final.

Well think I've recovered from a very very bitter Thursday

[PAWAQATSI]

Nice one Beast2.....It was enough to make me go and get some of Malisse

But who do you pick between him and Nalbandian????
Both have been so good to me so far

Still waiting for your league tips also Craig!!!

 

[beast2]

Friday Play
Nalbandian d Malisse 2.75

[soulhat]

Any thoughts on Nalbandian and Malisse going 5 sets?

I don't see either player having an overwhelming advantage and am leaning toward a 3-2 victory on either side.

Current odds @ Pinnacle:
Malisse 3-2 17 to 4
Nalbandian 3-2 11 to 2

Hey, if you're thinking it going to be a tough game why not to take OVER(40,5) @ 1.88 at www.fonbet.com ???

 

[soulhat]

Looks like both are going to end up being winners.

David Nalbandian (28) leads Xavier Malisse (27)
7-6 (7-2), 6-4, 1-6, 6-2

Nice way to start the day :Yep:

oh and one more thing.........don't even bother betting on the women's final!.........Papa Williams is the only one who knows who is going to win!

And you'll notice from previous posts that when I say there is little depth in women's tennis...........a really mean there is little depth in women's tennis!.........Geez!

Hope somebody out there followed my strategy of always betting the favorites in the women's game.....if ya did.....you made money.....not much but some!...........

 

[kickserv]

and great call soulhat .........you were right!!


but hope ya put more $$ on Malisse!

 

[soulhat]

Equal units on each, guaranteed to win $700. Possible $900 best case.

Not going to complain, either way positive $$$$$
