[pro_punter]

I have had a few multis today. One of them is Karlovic, Calleri and Garcia-Lopez all to win 3 sets to love at $45 to 1.

bl on that with Calleri. Worth the risk though at 45-1

 

[footyhead18]

Had $50 on Vaidasova to win in straight sets @ 1.50 which was money for jam only to go all uo ($75) on Schnyder (v Delacqua) & Peer (v Moore) in straight sets & 1.65.
Patty Schnyder was a disgrace... I could see half way thru the 2nd set Delacqua was gonna get up if she could just limit her unforced errors. Tried to ring a few betting agencies for a bet in running but no success.
Does anyone know of any agencies that do this?

Need to regroup tonight.... $20 on Sharapova to win in 3 all up (i hope) into Roddick in straight sets (Berrer can barely hold a racquet).
Follow my lead punters!

Safin over Baghdatis @ $2.28
Cilic over Melzer @ $1.60

Cilic saved me yesterday but it would have been a massive win had Safin got up.
Day 5
Some shorties today that look sure things.
S.Williams over Azarenka @ $1.17
Nadal over Simon @ $1.06

Jankovic over Razzano @ $1.45
Fish over Nieminen @ $1.85

For a roughie, there are worse $8 chances than Sugiyama against Vaidisova today. She's $7.65 right now.

 

[Karbo]

Hmm, Grosjean paying $3.40 against perennial choker James Blake. Don't think i can ignore that.

James Blake will win Karbo, he was in fantastic form when playing Michael Russell on Margeret Court yesterday (2 days ago in 4 mins) and when James Blake is hot, he is one of the best players going around.....I can't see Grosjean upsetting Blake tomorrow.....

 

[Ricketts]

James Blake, now there's a guy i will never bet on or against. Same applies to Tursunov.

 

[Colin D'Cops]

I'd never bet on Tursunov either, he's way too hot and cold....He can beat anyone on his day, but on his worst, he's shocking in every sense of the word....Blake is in top form, back him tomorrow, and collect your winnings straight after the match...

Maybe, but Grosjean has a habit of taking matches to the distance, and we all know what happens to James Blake if it goes to 5.

Last year he looked unstoppable as well, and then out he went in staight sets in the blink of an eye. Typical Blake. He'll probably win, but it wouldn't surprise me to see grosjean go though

Yep agree....Grosjean is a chance, but he's only a slim one....

Grosjean takes the first set 6-4 and breaks first game of the second 1-0

 

[caboose]

Does anyone else give Ruano Pascal and Mirza chances today?

I realise they're both big outsiders against Hantuchova and V.Williams, but they seem a bit over the odds to me.

Ruano Pascal is $11.50 and Mirza $7.30 at Betfair.

Well its worth a shot if you think Venus and Daniela will self destruct with unforced errors

 

[Hot Spenny]

is this game on anywhere?? all i saw for the last half hour was hantuchova trying on dresses, and some bloke giving his thoughts on philosophy.

 

[Gift]

Blake came back from the dead down in the third and won it, now its in the 5th set

 

[caboose]

Daniela is more likely to do that, I think, but only one of the two matches needs to end the right way for a big profit to be made.

 

[Ricketts]

Perfect example of why we should never bet on or against Blake. The last time i bet on a match of his (never again) was 2007 US Open where he struggled through 5 sets against Fabrice Santoro who couldn't even walk at the time he was so stuffed.

 

[ShearMagic9]

Rafael Nadal to beat Mathieu 3-1 @ $3.80

And it wont happen, but for tomorrow Hewitt to win first set 6-0.

Only have $1 on it, paying $401

 

[Betfair Pro Punter]

Tomas Berdych @ $8.60 to beat Federer, is worth putting a few bucks on.

As good as Federer is, last game may have zapped him a bit. And berdych is no mug either.

 

[Ricketts]

Roger V Tipsarevic was like Geelong V Collingwood Prelim Final.
Federer over Berdych by 119.
