Best of luck in the tourney YankeesMarc!!!!!

[scoonie]

Ginepri had a damn solid year on grass in '03. He even won a tourney--albeit against fairly soft competition--which I'm sure did wonders for his confidence.

I also think you're getting great value here simply because Saulnier is 3-1 lifetime against Ginepri. I don't see the head-to-head being a major factor as none of the four matches were played on grass, and most were played when Ginepri wasn't half the player he is now.

Yes, Saulnier's a fairly solid grass-courter but I give Ginepri a slight edge on the surface. And I just like the fact that he is an up-an-comer, while Saulnier has had his chance to break through but never did (he's now almost 29 and stands at 35-62 overall).

Ginepri cruises 6-4 6-4

P.S. Ancic is a very iffy pick against a hot Jeff Morrison as well.

[yankeesmarc]

[yankeesmarc]

Stella Artois
Delgado (-150) over Marray 2 UNITS
Grosjean (-215) over Reid 2 UNITS
i wanna play Lleyton Hewitt so badly too. But a collapse in the first round for him is definitely not out of the question.

Gerry Weber
Haas (-307) over Carlsen 2 UNITS

hey doc

i use pinnacle for everything, so i also use them for tennis. they dont have every match, but they do have many. however, i've found that bet365 is the best when it comes to tennis odds.

[scoonie]

but think that Grosjean is overpriced playing a young Aussie who may turn out to be a solid grass court player. In addition, while Haas should roll over Carlsen, his comeback from injury is far from complete; Tommy has never fared that well on faster surfaces; and his lack of preparation on grass coming in doesn't bode well (That was a huge win over Lopez in the first round, however).
-307 is not a worthwhile price.

[yankeesmarc]

another positive day - no complaining here

be back with tomorrow's plays later

[yankeesmarc]

well, pinnacle only has lines up for the gerry weber open. and there are only 4 matches. and i dont like any of them. im leaning towards kiefer over bjorkman...but i dont like it enough to play it. the other three matches i could definitely see going either way. so no plays for tonight. ya gotta show discipline in this stuff...can't just place a bet for the hell of it. hope to come back strong in two days.

if you've been following me- which i dont think anybody is...but if you have, take the night off and go pound some brew with the 30 units you've won. :booz:

[yankeesmarc]

pinnacle posted Stella Artois odds...so i have one play.

You won 4 units and the odds are -1125, that means the stakes are some 46 units ? dont you think its a risk putting 45 units to win 4 units ?

just enquiring. I used to do like this tennis some time back but I burnt my fingers couple of times.

congrats on your win

[365er]

stella artis

parlay : andy roddick 1/3, lewitt 2/7

8 units to get 5.7 units

[yankeesmarc]

hey 365

yes, i realize i put up 46 units to win 4. but i really felt hewitt would win. in my opinion, they were free units. i have gotten bitten in the past before on huge juice upsets...but in this situation, hewitt is too tough on grass. also, if i were to lose the 46, then i feel pretty confident i could make it back. thanks though! glad someone looks at my posts!

[sam1979]

Wow ! 46 UNITS .......to win 4


That's SCARY man...


What are you playing tomm ?

[yankeesmarc]

its no use doubting what you did in the past. i was willing to risk the 46, and if the situation came up, i'd probably do it again. why? because the end result was 4 units more than i had when i started.

for tomorrow:
Federer (-775) over Clement 2 UNITS
Haas (-116) over Novak 1 UNIT

not too sure about the haas match, should be a good one. decided to go for it for the hell of it.

[sam1979]

Stella Artois :

Will bet live

Gerry Weber Open :

HAAS over Novak
KIEFER over Schüttler
VERDASCO over FISH

[365er]

handicap betting : paradon srichaphan + 4 over andy roddick, Arnaud Clement +6 over Roger Federer

[Horatio]

wow 153 mph is not too shabby now is it? Wpnder what trying to see that coming off grass must be like. Got to favor Roddick and Federer against all comers now...GL...:gulp:
