Psycho Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Re: Tennis - 18-24 July Stop this bullshit talk about match fixing. Things like doesn't exist, alright? Even Youzhny today looked as not suspicious as it can possibly be :rollin His match against Rochus in Miami was better, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captaincool Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Re: Tennis - 18-24 July I think it's foolish to suggest match fixing doesn't go on and I'd imagine that 90% of fixing involves handicaps/total games or some other markets rather than to actually win/lose the game. Far easier and more difficult to prove. However, this is nowhere near as prevalent as some people here seem to think and will happen very, very rarely (although I still believe Simon did earlier in the season, have never seen anything like that game!). For this reason, I'll never back a match involving him and I'd advise others to keep their own lists. The chances are Simon has never fixed a match in his life and I'm just paranoid (or talking out of my pocket) but at least now I can rest easy when he's playing. Basically, my point is, if you keep backing people and keep calling fix, you shouldn't be making the bets. If YOU have any doubts over a player, pick another match to bet on, there are loads daily. Anyway, to get back on track.... I've backed over 8.5 games 1st set @4/7 bet365 in Zvonareva v Koryttseva. I was impressed with Koryttseva against Bondarenko and she was hitting vey well, albeit profiting from some awful play from her opponent. She won't fear Zvonareva, having beaten her in their only previous meeting and I think she can stay with the Russian in the early exchanges. Zvonareva was poor against Tatishvili. She struggled on serve and gave away a lot of points and break opportunities. She's not quite firing at the moment and is maybe suffering from last year's exploits. I think she'll win eventually but we could see something similar to the Tatishvili match (7-5, 6-7, 6-1) where it stays close before Zvonareva runs away with the final set. There's a lot of scope with the 8.5 game line and it doesn't really matter who serves first, just looking to avoid double breaks... Lost. Fix :lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirage Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Re: Tennis - 18-24 July Annoyingly Youzhny lost after being a set up, just like Kamke did earlier this week :\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirage Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 Re: Tennis - 18-24 July Atlanta Outrights 1.5/5pts Mardy Fish to win - 11/4 with Bet365 Still got the above bet from the beginning of the week so not going to get involved in the Atlanta final. Was tempted by Fish -2 games but decided to leave it. Hamburg final looks tough to call in terms of the handicap. Simon has battled well all week so taking Almagro on the handicap offers no value for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mirage Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 Re: Tennis - 18-24 July Atlanta Outrights 1.5/5pts Mardy Fish to win - 11/4 with Bet365 Winner. Despite being a set and a break down Fish battled well to come through a tough match versus Isner. Finished at +11.61 points for the week. More than happy with how things have gone over the last few days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
