  1. She's not comfortable on grass and she's said as much. That might be something to do with it.
  2. If I've written a joke somewhere above @MCLARKE I must have missed it.
  3. Just because you say it, it doesn't make it true
  4. You've overthought it way too much Harry. The things you've suggested weren't in my mind at all.
  5. Confused @harry_rag why's that.
  6. It's also not hard to imagine bookies actually using this site either. After all, nobody knows who anybody else is do they. Taking that idea a stage further, they may use the site to spread to propagate ideas that suit them - for example, how accas are always better than singles.
  7. It all evens out of course, but it's like a big raspberry blowing in your face when the only player out of about 20 at the top of the leader board is over par and it's the one you backed. Reavie must have had a shocker of a round bearing in mind the numbers that all the other players around him posted.
  8. Reavie can jog on. Only player on the leaderboard over par
  9. I'm backing Reavie at 4.1 on the exchanges. Bradley looks short enough and Cantlay doesn't convince me when it comes to the final day of any tournament - Sunday Tiger Woods he is not. It's hard to see the winner coming from outside those three though and I think Reavie is the play.
  10. It evens out in the end. You can't seriously think that retirements only ever go against you.
  11. Djokovic normally plays grass exhibitions before Wimbledon. He played a warm-up tournament a few years back, but that was after the French Open debacle against Cecchinato. In normal times he's never played grass tournaments before Wimbledon as far as I'm aware.
  12. @Smiles Tennis As the pool of grass matches is that much smaller than other surfaces I'm wondering how valid your system is for this surface. As an example, Lisicki has historically been very good on grass, but hasn't been a factor at all on the main tour for quite a few years now. I appreciate that backing Lisicki might also have to do more with opposing Garcia and her record on the grass, but at the same time for me this is where systematic betting can fall down as Lisicki's data is surely out of date and not much use when assessing her chances today. Anyway, best of luck with what you're doing and I hope it's successful.
  13. Australian bets have always been different. Years ago Betfair operated a separate wallet which you had to move money into to bet on anything taking place in Australia. Now that's gone but as you previously alluded to, the commission for Australian bets remains higher than other bets. My understanding is it has to do with betting tax, although I might be wrong about that.
  14. 1. Hovland 10000 2. Spieth 9200 3. Hatton 8900 4. Si Woo Kim 7300 5. McCarthy 7200 6. Henley 7100
  15. Use Resolver @dmatt1 if you have a problem getting funds back. It takes a long time, but it works - at least in my experience.
  16. More than that they're never worth it. Cash-out is an absolute money making machine for the bookies - there's orders of magnitude more margin in their cash-out offers than the initial lines. They prey on the loss aversion most people have when they're on course for a big win and take advantage by offering completely unfair offers that bear no resemblance to the chance of the final leg of an acca landing, for example. I've had plenty of bad beats where a last leg has gone down, but if you're serious about trying to make money on acca's you've got to let the bet ride - reason being you can never cash out of a first-leg loser but you can cash out of what ends up being a winning acca and in the long run you're eating into your profits if you cash out of a winner, whilst having full losses on accas that lose early on.
