Tennis play for Saturday morning

CrazyL · 06-21-2008, 08:11 AM

Took a long look at Ferrer and passed. Watch he'll win in straight sets.

Anyway, here's what I'm going with today. Might as well get a loss out of the way so we have no monkey on our backs headed into Wimbledon.

Fernando Verdasco +180
vs Ivo Karlovic
to win 1.8 units

I don't get these American odds.

Anyway, if I was to bet on a tennis game today, it'd be Karlovic to take the first set 7-6, which is at 4.00 on Betfair. There ain't much to be had on the Tennis today, with a lot of risk being finals day.

There's alot of profit to be had on the Intertoto Cup though, seeing as bookies ain't got a clue who's better and are more likely to be out of line. I've got my hands on a 18% arb on the FC Besa game, so that's a nice £100 for free.

I agree we'll see a 1st set tiebreaker, so hoping the sun shines on Fernando's ass a bit more this match. Supposedly going to rain nonstop so may see some delays or whatnot.

How about Safina getting upset? That bitch is never worth a bet in any finals IMO. Was happy to see her go down other than some people getting burned on her.

Hey crazy,

Just curious where you go +180 on Verdasco? I bet him myself but only got +158.

FYI, I also have Radwanska -132 pending in womens.

Quite like Safina. She's strangely attractive, can't put my finger on why though.

I'd never bet against Tanasugarn, she's lost me quite a bit of money over time. Now she's a bitch.

Karlovic wins in 3rd set tie breaker.

7-5, 6-7, 7-6... Seemed like Verdasco was gonna fight through it, in the third set he was broken by the Croatian, then the very next game broke him right back. Match was played indoors due to the rain. I'll take an +180 dog in consecutive tie breaks every time.

Today
0-1 (-1.00)

Nice hit- That game had trip written all over it, although I thought there was a chance Safina wouldn't choke.

pimike · 06-21-2008, 02:26 PM

that was what I call down big only play to get money back. Not smart but it worked.

Actually Safina is known to choke. She plays around on the court to much. She was way to high of a fav and she is not that good on grass
