  1. Mona Barthel to beat Gasanova @ -115 with William Hill

    NO reason whatsoever for Gasanova to be favored earlier in the day with this.. Young player with zero quality wins in her career that I saw over the last year, and also have never heard of this player before. Have not been paying close attention of late, but the actual odds are off here by about 60 cents, and Barthel should be -175 because she is not usually a trustworthy player either... So the edge over the book would also be 75 cents minus 15 cents juice.

    Donna Veckic vs E. Cocciaretto

    With the season just restarting after the long Corona break, it is difficult to find value anywhere on the board with most big names screaming out of the draw with undue favoritism. Vekic looks, smells and shapes up like the real deal on paper, however I strongly feel that caution should be applied as she still looks very under cooked. Cocciaretto has the ability on clay to get something out of this match against a very suspect Vekic who is continuously going shorter in the market. With the market forces already positive on Cocciaretto and considering home advantage that most folks may think does not amount to much, I will go with Cocciaretto with a 5.5 game start which is really huge in the context of things.

    I really don't like this bet .. but I won't be on the other side of the handicap .. good luck .. I think Vekic wins in straight sets quite easily.. something like 6-2 6-2

  3. I agree ... I'm not super confident with Alexandrova... Ferro is a wildcard, but I'm sure Ekaterina's serve is 100 times better, and also she is playing well enough form what I saw.. 

    I did watch some of the end Giorgi and Peterson.. I was leaning Giorgi.. but i saw no evidence of her current form, and I've lost on her too many times in the past to feel comfortable.. 

    I did see some of the Juvan - Vondrousova match as I mentioned earlier.. I am thinking Marketa going to win that match, and i missed most of the second half of it.. I think Marketa's form was probably bad, and slipping.. Javan really looked slow and hobbling around.. 

    To sum things up.. Giorgi seemed with incredible shape, and Italy is supporting her here.. I think she wants to advance in her country.. and I'm dialing her up as the winner in the next round.. 

    I think the odds are going to slightly favor Giorgi around -125, but I'm hoping for a better price than that.. Nonetheless .. I feel more comfortable with this bet than Alexandrova, but I will still consider Ekaterina, and have some thinking to do about that because I don't believe she should be the underdog.. 

    If Ferro beats Podoroska .. thats fine but Nadia was coming off two tough three set matches, and she's not comparable to the talent she'll be facing in the next round. 

  4. Well Gentleman.. the zombies have risen today.. Ferro has opened up as the favorite against the most underrated player on tour Ekaterina Alexandrova.  Having said that.. I"m still not confident Alexandrova wins , but she looked good in the highlights I saw from her match. Probably will have to auto-bet this tomorrow, and i'm already a little bit excited about it .. the problem is I have other matches that I'm much more confident such as Vekic.. Italians might be on thin ice soon as Giorgi seems to be in some trouble vs Peterson. So fading all the italians tomorrow makes perfect sense to me.. I think Errani has some chances and maybe Paolini, but as I've said Sasnovich played quite well, and she seems healthy enough.. I have no idea how well Paolini is playing but certainly this girl is some future clay court specialist with alot of potential.

    1. Javan looks slow and worn down to me -- I think Peterson or Giorgi can win that match in the next round

    2. Yastremska should beat Dodin who also is not impressing me, but less confident with that one

    3. Sasnovich should be able to beat Paolini.. She looked good form to me today beating Mertens

    4. Samsonova is a very talented player.. I don't know what her status is physically.. have not seen her recent matches. 

    5. Alexandrova should advance past Ferro or Podoroska in the next round. 

    6. Siegemund has potential for an upset in the next round.. I'm uncertain with this matchup, and her opponent is still unknown. 

     

  6. The little bit that I've seen from Donna Vekic practice.. She's hitting the ball clean, and in primo form for Palermo.. Dusting Rus in the first round is another good sign, but I have no idea how Cocciaretto is going to compete with the firepower and experience of Vekic.. I'd be pretty shocked if there was n upset with this match. Home Italians have made their waves already.. Path is now paved for Vekic, and certainly one of the top four contenders to win the tournament alongside Mertens, Vondrousova, and Kontaveit. Krystyna Pliskova is a dark horse.. I'm not sure how good she is playing.. The win over Sakkari hasn't sold me yet. The tournament feels pretty wide open, so there could be a chance for someone to sneak in there and grab the trophy, but out of those four players I prefer Vekic. So, this makes me believe that she'll make quick work of the young italian in straight sets. 

    I actually completely forgot about Alexandrova and Yastremska as Title contenders... whom i might rate as greater chances than Vekic or atleast the same level.. 

    Donna Vekic -286 to beat Cocciaretto with Pinnacle

     

  7. Pliskova was a banker bet.. Good pick on that +1.5 sets.. I wish i pulled that trigger.. I seen Sakkari didn't look in form especially for a clay court match vs a big hitter.. Great call though Czech.. Just another tally on a outright win for your handicap pick. Pure gold... Then Errani was the other value play.. They'll matchup against each other, and Pliskova is a good size favorite.. I feel its warranted, and won't be betting on Errani.  I'm giving czech player 75% chances. 

  8. There is quite a few Romanians in the draw. I do believe we're going to see some sort of surprise with this..  For me I'm thinking Begu or this Loana Paar player I'm unfamiliar with.. One of them has the chance to advance, and they are both live dogs in my mind.. Not an official play or anything. I'm not offered betting lines yet, and also not super confident with it.. Just throwing some opinions out there to be heard or discussed. ?

  9. Ok guys .. I'm listing one of my worst picks here because no one else is cooperating at all 

    Tanner Boser -240 

    Guy is just strong and technical .. I don't know where Pessoa can beat him, but he is much larger than Boser.. has him by 20-30 pounds minimum but Boser is a good ahtlete.. so it will be a test... the odds are even inflated... probably should be much closer, but i'm picking to win anyways... we'll see

  10. guys we really need some cooperation in here to get the forum moving on UFC.. I'm not sure why everyone is so shy.. This is a one man losing show for all the picks I've posted.. Eventually things will get good, but this forum is not about one person posting... Everyone should share ideas... UFC is a mega popular sport now, and I'm certain there is alot of opinions out there that need to be heard.
