  1. Re: May 11 - May 17 Wawrinka/Thiem is certainly the most talked about match on most forums with most of the tipsters opting for a Thiem win or to win a set. I think that is a warning in itself. I originally thought Thiem to win a set, now I am not too sure. "wawrinka should be able to figure out Thiem eventually"? It may be even early considering all the hype that I now feel could be misleading. my verdict? Warinka in 2 easy sets of bookie magic!!!!

  2. Re: May 11 - May 17 The reasoning is clearly plausible, however I do not see any real benefits to justify what really amounts to a stab in the dark. For one, Nishikori is such an old fashioned professional that he hardly gets beat by just anybody. Murray might still be buzzing from his win and might just think of prolonging his streak for confidence building. I too might be wrong. i just feel that there are a lot more promising games with better rewards on offer. I would definately prefer to take on the Federer and Fognini match than these two. Still, gl!

    Back Andrea Arnaboldi (+1.5 sets) to beat David Goffin for a 6/10 stake at 3.15 with Unibet Back Marcel Granollers (+1.5 sets) to beat Roberto Bautista-Agut for a 7/10 stake at 2.10 with Betway Back Philipp Kohlschreiber (-2.5) to beat Kevin Anderson for a 7/10 stake at 1.88 with Unibet Can't see all that much for tomorrow, but going with three nonetheless. Kohlschreiber should be too strong for Anderson considering the recent results of the two, so that seems like an obvious bet to go for. Goffin has been strangely subdued lately and I'm actually willing to have a punt on the local guy at odds this big, while Granollers looked good in Madrid and has a good record against Bautista-Agut, so I'll go for the plus set handicap in that match, especially since Bautista-Agut lost against Tursunov in his only previous showing in Rome.

    Experience has always taught me something about this sort of slam. It will never be complete without seeing either a local wildcard or qualifier make an unannounced bold run.....at least worthy of serious attention. It is why I think this Arnaboldi guy looks like a neatly packaged letter bomb waiting to be signed for. Oh no! dont get me wrong! for all the garrulous talk, I am only expecting him to win a set to fulfil the requirements of expectation.
  4. Re: May 11 - May 17 I think it is very much one to treat with caution especially against a player like Isner. He always flatters to deceive most times with that languid and resigned stroll between serves giving the false impression of tiredness. The men is one of the fittest human machines around. One thing is clear; tired or no tired Isner will be consistent and true to his serve for the duration of the match. The question is can mayer break......and maintain?? I worry!

    Back Dimitrov to beat Nadal at 5.75 Sportingbet Dimitrov's showed great fight spirit against good players like Wawrinka and Fonini. He was close to beat Nadal twice in the past. Now he is far more experienced and as he said tomorrow plays good tennis. Nadal showed improvement since Barcelona. Probably the reason is that he is hitting with his old racket. However The King of clay will meet his first serious opponent in the tourney. 5.75 are very good odds. Here is my awful balance since I start posting: 0/13, -13 points :)
    My guess is that you will improve with time as everyone does. You will also need to be more open-minded, realistic and objective to make these improvements. If you only specialize in pinpointing upsets, then you will continue to have negative results. mix it up and most importantly, follow the markets closely. gl!!!!
  6. Re: Shambata 2015 You would have noticed that I acknowledged your reply by pressing the little thank you button with no further comment because I sort of realised that Zander had suddenly found a chance rising out of circumstances. You may disagree because there is no proof, but I really believe the one day noplay switched the advantage back to Zander. It definitely killed the Coin momentum not that Zander was anything special. We have seen these kind of breaks bringing momentum changes many times. Still, well done!

  7. Re: April 20 - April 26

    Back Fabio Fognini (+1.5 sets) to beat Rafael Nadal for a 7/10 stake at 2.95 with Unibet Nadal is better now than he was back in Rio de Janeiro, but I still have plenty of doubts and his performance against Almagro didn't convince me either, so I'll go with the set handicap tomorrow at odds that are pretty nice in my view. Full preview here: http://www.punterslounge.com/fognini-vs-nadal-betting-fabio-fognini-can-shine-against-nadal-for-the-second-time-in-a-row
    I really think Nadal is slowly beginning to serve notice of future intent with respect to progressing towards French Open Form. I really cannot see much resistance from the Fog here. expressly Nadal -5.5
  8. Re: Shambata 2015 You may rightfully have an inner conviction about Zander, but to justify that conviction by saying Coin recently played rubbish is very biased and quite misleading. Yes, she played a couple of unnecessary three-setters, but a win is a win in any book. She even humbled Garcia Perez by a bagel and one in the final. What more can you ask for from a woman who has won 7 of her last 8. Zander also has a similar record making this clearly a 50/50 match. Preference in my opinion should be for Coin who is on the better streak. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Elizaveta Kulichkova to beat Camila Giorgi (Katowice WTA)@2' date=4, 5dimes, 3/10or wherever u can get over 2 is fine. VAMOS!!! Last bet for today cannot resist... I have watched her play thru juniors and now exploding really in both matches.... WTA I know but if you know this sport and you saw her play you cannot say Im not right. Footwork precision serve everything is so much together.....
    You are right because I watched her last game against Kanepi, she was extremely superb! However as I have pointed out a few times on this forum for people who have seen me point out this fact before, market forces are against Kulikova. Giorgi was 1/2 yesterday on paddy power and moved to 8/13 this morning. This for me is the strongest indication of who the winner will be. I believe I can make a safe call of a Giorgi victory here. 2-1 I will say! Gl everyone!
  10. Re: March 30 - April 5

    Nishikori is 1.78cm tall and will have huge problems when Isner is serving.Raonic was beaten by Isner in what was a serving duel and Isner was great against Dimitrov too and i think he will benefit from it serves again today
    Nishikori has always been 1.78cm tall. At least he was in all his previous encounters against Raonic where he confidently leads 5-2. Raonic is similar to Isner and perhaps even more dynamic when you compare their post-serve games. So it is not like Nishikor will suddenly find himself in an uncomfortable situation of trying to cope with Isner's serve. I believe that like a clever boxer cutting down the ring against a dangerous opponent, he will finally get to Isner at some point and put him away. The other strong point I was going to make is that whenever a player is still going strongly in any tournament without dropping a set, you need to take them very seriously regardless of the quality of opposition they have beaten to get that far. I see Nishikori shining through again here. At worst, he may drop a set........if he does not warm up in time. Gl!
  11. Re: March 23 - March 29

    Guys, I've read your tips and I had put them before so I agree with Nara, Parmentier, U.Radwanska. There are another interesting matcheslike Badosa to beat Peng 6.5 Peng has in last time some interesting results and Badosa is big talent of Spanish tennis. Or I don't understand odds in match Lopez-Thiem. I think Thiem is overestimated in the match. Lopez has "special" style and it could make problems to Thiem. And Lopez is even higher level.
    I was wondering where you saw Bardosa at +6.5? Paddy has her at 5.5 which to me boarders on the fringe of danger. this Bardosa girl is a 1997 puppy, and looks a very good tip even in my opinion more positive than radwanska/williams. I worry about 5.5, it could be a game where she plays very well and fails to cover.....the fear of switching off mentally if Peng enters brick-wall mode. Overs must also be considered carefully too!
  12. Re: March 23 - March 29 K. PLISKOVA vs A. BECK The last time we saw superwoman, she came in the form of Sara Errani who made the word "fatigue" seem like a term for empowerment. Surely she certainly has not grown thinner and taller over the last couple of years, or has she?? That is why I see light at the end of the tunnel as we hopefully see a change of guards this week on the womens tour, at least as far as this tournament. Beck certainly enters into this elite list of players with a wealth of potentials who have been subdued over the last 6months or so for one reason or the other. We saw Bencic and Stephens begin to reemerge out of the duldrums yesterday, and today hopefully BECK The h2h tells me that she has seen a lot of Pliskova's game so much as to have nothing to fear from a player who should be certainly sapping in energy. Even after all this confident talk, I believe in investing wisely. So I will be taking the huge handicap of +5.5 believing that Beck will get first run and not be caught. Good luck!

  13. Re: March 23 - March 29 HANTUCHOVA VS BENCIC This is one of the matches of today that I feel very good about. Hantuchova despite winning a tournament recently is on the decline compared to Bencic. Daniella is now at a stage in her career where she now has to target and prepare for the kind of tournaments that she feels she could excel in. This is certainly not one of them as I reckon for her it would take more energy thinking about it than playing in it. So much goes into mental preparation alone at this sort of age. I do not see Daniella still having the motivation to prepare to win just one round at the most. On the the other hand, Bencic despite the huge early promise she arrived on tour with, has been in a slump and has only just reemerged albeit now in ascendency. She playd well at Indian Wells even beating Wozniacki on the way before losing 2-1 to Jankovic in r16. That speak volumes. It will be a huge step backwards if Bencic lost to Daniella at this stage of progress. In fact, I do not see Daniella competing for long in what she be surprisingly a lopsided victory. Gl everyone.

  14. Re: March 23 - March 29 Catherine Bellis to Beat Indy Vroom This looks clooks close on paper as has already been said. However Bellis has won 8 or her last 9 games. regardless of who she played in those matches she goes in as the more confident player. She also has home advantage and the American youngsters tend to use home advantage better than anyone else. Finally as a player, she is more progressive. Vroom may have playd well at that her home tournament, but it does not look like she still retains that form. When she is playing well, her attitude on court is top 5 quality. I really believe Vroom will go places with her self belief. But for today, Bellis she rule. I feel confident to give this 8.5/10 Good luck!

  15. Re: March 9 - March 15

    Well done' date=' mate, but Halep lost first set, not Gavrilova won.[/quote'] There is only win or lose in this game matey. False scores and false sets are all part of it. Tippping is taking into consideration all the possible factors available including possible fixing to arrive at a conclusion. It is irrelevant whether Gavrilova was gifted a set. The fact is she won a set as tipped. End of story!
  16. Re: February 9 - February 15 Back Tomljanovic to get the better of Hantuchova and win her first WTA career title. I would really be very shocked if there was a different result tomorrow especially as I watched both semi-finals from beginning to end. We are in a period eclipsed by the rising of a variety of upcoming WTA stars, and today depicted a battle of supremacy that we expect to see more of, over the years. Among these rising stars, I rate Tomljanovic very high up there. She really is the real McCoy; rugged, battle-hard and feisty. A punter's player in all ramifications. Her battling qualities are second to none. Anyone who has followed her long enough will know what I am talking about. She is just a junkie for long drawn out battles and was easily my best come-back player of last year. Head to head is 1-1 with Tomljanovic being the most recent victor in straight sets in 2014 sydney. Tomljanovic also represents a steep rise in class from the passive Erakovic who presented Daniella with a place in the final on a platter of gold. I expect Ajla to be ready as she could not really have hoped for a more ideal opponent in a final. Fearless, deep, penetrating and precise ball-striking should win the day for me. I am really expecting this to be in straight sets. Gl everyone!!

  17. Re: February 9 - February 15

    Back Barbora Zahlavova-Strycova to beat Mona Barthel for a 7/10 stake at 1.71 with Pinnacle Barthel with the big win yesterday, but I'm not sure how much should one read into it in all fairness. Zahlavova-Strycova will be a completely different match-up and she seems to be playing solid stuff as well, so I'd actually have her closer to the 1.50 mark in this one. Full preview here: http://www.punterslounge.com/zahlavova-strycova-vs-barthel-betting-barbora-zahlavova-strycova-has-what-it-takes-to-beat-mona-barthel-on-friday
    Well done, you were spot on. It was a bitter pill for me to swallow in the end. I had 219 going on to this match which was the last match of my parlay. I only needed barthel to win a set. After reading your write up, i started getting worried. i went on youtube to see the highlights from yesterday and i could clearly see what you meant matchup wise. With barthel rushing forward on every shot with no mapped out plan of what to do at the net, i knew i was doomed. Should have quickly taken bzs to win 2-0 at 13/8 from scratch to half my losses, but waited as barthel was serving first to see if the money would grow. Big mistake! and the rest was history.
  18. Re: February 9 - February 15

    Nicolas Mahut (+1.5 sets) to beat Andy Murray @ 3.780 Pinnacle Nicolas Mahut (+5 games) to beat Andy Murray @ 1.892 Pinnacle Agree with Czech on this one, but I'll play the safer handicap lines rather than get involved in the outright. It's impossible to know what kind of shape Murray is in as he hasn't played since the Australian Open, whilst Mahut is coming into this match after two qualifying wins. The Frenchman will need to serve well to have a chance here, but if he does and if Murray is slightly off the boil then three sets could be a real possibility.
    I observed with interest over the last couple of days that you and Czech were beginning to keep a little sequence going and it has worked thus far. You mentioned Mathieu, Czech agreed with you. You mentioned Kuznetsov, Czech agreed with you. Third time lucky with a reversal of roles? Czech mentions here. I have no opinion whatsoever. It may well be three from three! gl!
  19. Re: February 9 - February 15

    I disagree here. I understand your point of view on Nara maybe losing concentration on a lower level wta tournament but seeing how Lertpitaksinchai (one of my fav doubles players on itf circuit) has played 1 match this year vs a similar opponent (maybe little worse) Diyas and lost 0,0, I cannot see your point here. Also that was less then a week ago when she played for her national team in fed cup. So that must have been a little embarassing. Nara will value this tournament high imo also, because its still a WTA and asian tournaments or climate are no stranger to her for sure. I expect a very easy victory here and also already seen Lertpitaksinchai's movement and game on court in person, she is cca 2 level below Nara's game, also much slower, which wil be a key factor imo. Just my two cents... But good luck with your bet!
    I only just saw your reply this minute. Firstly I would say that there is Nothing wrong with anyone expressing their point of view in my opinion as long as it is done appropriately. Now I know you are a popular tipster who also visits many other sites so I take it that at all times you will be quite up to date with game times etc as it is something you do daily. You were clearly aware that the Nara game started well before you posted your comment, or even if you werent, would it not have been appropriate to check first? Quite devious to post what was an informed reply one minute and next minute professing that Nara was already 3-0 up. I guessed you posted the reply and checked immediately afterwards? I do not wear my trousers then remember to wear my boxers afterwards. Still, no worries now that I have said my piece.
  20. Re: February 9 - February 15 Back Lertpitaksinchai to beat Nara with +6.5 games. On surface value Lertpitaksinchai looks no match for Nara until you stop for one minute to take into consideration the circumstances surrounding this meeting. It is more like an asian derby played without the normal weight of expectation that you will find in one of the more glamorous tournaments. More like what you will expect to see between Aston Villa and say Birmingham on a cold tuesday night in the midlands. The gulf in rankings might want to tell a different story, however these two are no strangers to themselves with the H2h standing at 1-1. I expect a very well contested game with the home based player standing her ground for the duration of play. I will encourage backing the home player to win a set if you are ballsy enough. Good luck!!!

  21. Re: February 9 - February 15 Back Rola Blaz to win a set from N. Almagro Back over 21.5 games R. Blaz/Almagro Blaz back on his favourite surface should be ready to pick up from where he left of last year now he is back on the red dirt. Yes yes yes, I know that he is playing Almagro who actually eats clay for breakfast. However, I do not believe that Almagro is in any sort of form that could be tagged dangerous. This could really go either way, but overs looks a definite lock. gl all.

  22. Re: February 2 - February 8 Lokoli to Beat Sousa Experience has thought me in the past that the week after a slam is always the most profitable if you hearty enough to not be swayed by names and odds. It is simply because most players who have played in the slam find it difficult to maintain the same enthusiasm going into a lesser tournament. More like looking forward to work on Monday after a groovy weekend. Sousa might be a better player than Lokoli, but we all know that better players do not always win. In fact, the scenario is set right in my opinion for Lokoli being the home player and the one who should have more hunger. I cannot see this going any other way especially with the Lokoli odds shortening positively over the last hour. Good luck!!
