Re: April 23 - April 29

Bertens to beat Pious @ 5/4 with Panbet I watched Bertens dismantle Halep with interest today and my lord was she on fire, the woman has everything going for on this surface. Variety, big serve, good deep groundstrokes with topspin and an ability to fire a winner when she has the chance. I was ridiculously impressed with her mental resolve and perseverance and it's no suprise to me looking back at the names she's knocked out on the way to this final.

They are 1-1 in the head to heads with Bertens winning their most recent match on indoor hard back in October 2011 .. Pous won their match a month prior to that quite convincingly however love and 3 on clay. Never-the-less, Bertens was almost virtually a year younger back then and had only jus burst onto the tour. I watched Pous today against Johanson and was only moderatily impressed, whilst she looked quite promising on both wings ... she often found it difficult to deal with the heavy ball on a consistent basis. Bertens on the other front was much the opposite. Bertens = Better form, better talent and better mental resolve .. I see the 20 year old qualifier setting her own fairy-tale story here. 9/10 in the confidence stakes
Another excellent call ImLovinIt, needed that after the Raonic result, cheers pal :ok

Re: April 23 - April 29 Hi guys, 1 pick for WTA STUTTGART: AZARENKA TO DEFEAT SHARAPOVA @ 1.43 on betfair In the last 4 matches they played (all 4 in finals) Sharapova had no chance. Bad match-up for Sharapova as Azarenka has the same power from the baseline while playing much better defensively and moving better forcing Sharapova into a lot of errors.

Re: April 23 - April 29 Not many options for today, because ATP favs clearly win at laughable odds, and Aza IMO defeats Sharapova too at 1.4ish, which is not particularly attracting. I would not feel safe in minus handicaps, so I decided to accept local bookie with the accumulator option (Simon to win 2:0 over Fognini) x (Nadal to win 2:0 over Ferrer) x (Azarenka to win over Sharapova) @2.53 (corrected odds) local bookie (1/10)

Re: April 23 - April 29 Dasnieres de Veigy to beat Kuznetsov Naples challenger @2.4 Bet24(5/10) Sorry for short notice this is played in next 10 minutes.Wrong favorite in my opinion H2H between the two players is a 1-0 to Dasnieres 6-3 6-3 in the Marrakech Challenger who has played quality stuff to get to todays final.I believe he has the edge over Kuznetsov in this mornings final.Sorry I couldnt write some more. :hope

Re: April 23 - April 29 Torro-Flor to beat Rodionova Estoril 2012 Qualifer @2.62 Bet365(5/10) Torro-Flor comes into this qualifer on a back of a superb win in the Civitavecchia ITF beating along the way Schoofs,Knapp & Beygelzimer in the final. In 2012 she has won 14 games out of 17 on the clay surface & defo is the form player of the two that meet today.Rodionova is simply not playing well at the moment & is there for the taking.Added to the fact that its on Torro-Flor favourite surface makes this a defiante pick for the underdog this afternoon.[TABLE=class: plDetail]

(Simon to win 2:0 over Fognini) x (Nadal to win 2:0 over Ferrer) x (Azarenka to win over Sharapova) @2.53 (corrected odds) local bookie (1/10) LOSS
You don't win against Sharapova with an injured wrist, so of course the last leg of the treble failed. Finishing the week with a below par profit, but still happy that it ended in black numbers. +1.8 pts this week +38.5 pts this season

Re: April 23 - April 29

Hate this bitch Sharapova' date=' most unlikeable player in the history of the game. Azarenka should have retired, if you are injured, retire, I really hate losing money to default situations.[/quote'] Looks like you ran into this trap with a handicap. Be happy you did not post it here :-) What was most funny about Sharapova was that she celebrated the victory like as if she had won a fully regular match with healthy Vika. But there is one thing good on this result - it is going to raise odds on Vika next time.

I'm going HEAVY in on Victoria next time and I took 2-0 actually and then chased after she was a set down, moment I hit bet with the chase bet, the word was she had a wrist injury. Really pisses me off bro and yeah, gonna have to wait till they meet next time, hope its @ the French.

Re: April 23 - April 29 Azarenka looked fine to me, wrist wasnt hindering her at all. Sharapova just played superb tennis, serving brilliantly. I doubt she'll be able to do that on an outdoor clay court but we'll see. Azarenka is a brat and deservedly lost. She's like Murray, there;s always some excuse when she gets beaten....but she was moving and hitting the ball as she always does, only this time Sharapova served well and didnt gift her errors.
