As things stand at the moment, we should be getting back into the action on Jan 4 (ATP Delray Beach) and Jan 6 (WTA Abu Dhabi).

Agree. Krajinovic has never been much for consistency.

No, it can not. Krajinovic has no relation to ATP Nitto Finals. And, I would say, his loss is shocking only if you look at the odds. Otherwise, he was unstable in last games, plus Lopez is pretty good on hard. 

Evans another one who couldn't finish his dinner. Had two serves for a win in straight sets, doesn't convert, loses tie-break then gets broken right at the start of the decider and that's the end of that. So much of tennis is in the head - I'm convinced it's what separates the best players from the rest.

Zizou Bergs (+5.5) to beat Karen Khachanov at 1.80 with Bet365
Cameron Norrie (+4.5) to beat Milos Raonic at 1.81 with Pinnacle
Going for these two tomorrow. I liked Bergs in his first match, he's playing spirited tennis, giving it his all and has a big serve to do damage with. Khachanov was very average last week and, although I expect him to win, the 5.5 games margin looks a touch high to me. I'm also taking Norrie on the handicap line, as I wanted to do the same with Bedene. Norrie has been very kind to me recently and I still think that he's being undervalued by the market. He's got a good game for indoors conditions and he's in a good nick at the moment.

I took Lehecka and Trugelliti in a 5 fold accumulator 2 days ago. I never knew Trugelliti will be carried over or I would never have included it. I never win carry-over matches. My offer has seriously reduced overnight with Trungelliti going very weak in the market. I am still deciding what to do as I have already lost a sizeable chunk of the original offer. Experience tells me that something is wrong. He is either going to go out there to lose or withdraw.

Punters Lounge will always be in very good hands with or without me, that I can promise @Valentine   

Splendid.....your forum is soo resourceful.
Hope you've drawn up post retirement plans for this wonderful community.
Cheers..

Big bro....been going through the old threads, mining data and preparing for the post Corona Season as no knowledge is useless.
Have a question, Pinnacle sports claim to welcome winning punters, so in your industry experience.....do you really agree.
Will they truly honour withdrawals consistently without undue limitations no matter the sum?

@darko08 I'm speculating of course when I say that Khachanov might not like the tournament, but one thing I've noticed over the years is that certain players seem to do well - and conversely not so well - at certain tournaments. Sometimes it's the conditions, for example Estrella Burgos excelled at altitude in the Ecuador Open, other times it could be things that have nothing to do with the actual tennis, for example how well organised the tournament is or what the accommodation is like or even where a tournament falls in a player's schedule which can link to motivation. There's all kinds of things which can throw a player off and mean that they don't perform at their peak at certain tournaments.

Just found one pick for tonight...
Alex to win in straight sets 1.70 at my local bookie, sorry not to good with reasons, make my selections based on mostly statistics so if it's ok with the house I'll keep posting whatever pick I fancy here....

Well, I'm terribly sorry if you're insulted, we're all mostly friendly chaps in here, but we also like to have a chat about stuff, not only percentages, at least when we don't know where they are coming from. 

@CzechPunter.... thanks expect my regular contribution henceforth...
@money44....yes I only play singles and was upset cos he couldn't even snatch a set......later found out he was nursing a hand injury during the qualifiers or maybe faced with meeting Djokovic next he decided to tank.....there are so many narratives.
