DeMMa Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 Re: ATP Rome & WTA Berlin 5th-11th May AZARENKA to beat BONDARENKO @ $1.66 Lads, Victoria has been in ******* stunning form beating Chakvetadze and destroying Dulko last night. Bondarenko did struggle in a long three setter with Kuznetsova, but she won't be causing any upsets tonight. My Pick: AZA-REN-KA @ $1.66 - 10/10 GL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Alf Posted May 9, 2008 Share Posted May 9, 2008 Re: ATP Rome & WTA Berlin 5th-11th May Roddick looks a nice price again today. Davydenko pretty much beat himself yesterday. Robredo played some nice tennis at times when he got the opportunity to attack but I dont think Roddick will give him the same opportunities that Donky did. Also like the look of Almagro. Think he will benefit a lot from his day off yesterday and Djokovitch hasnt looked all together convincing so far. Think this will be decided on who can keep their head rather than who plays the best tennis. Blake too seems a big price for the match up. Wawrinka is an amazing prospect but he's far from the finished article at the moment. I think after his form so far this season he may underestimate Blake here which could be a dangerous mistake.

Roddick bet of the day imo, way too big a price he impressed me yesterday. Wawrinka i has expecting a bigger price, i can't take that no value but i still think he will win. Im considering the almagro game, could be a great match that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tip Detail SportTennis EventQatar Total Open winner SelectionSerena Williams Strength10/10 Date11/05/2008 Bookmaker/PricePinnacle Sports @ 2.03 (Back) ReasoningI just can't see any other player taking the title here.Serena is in red hot form and playing with such a confidence in her abilities that I don't believe that any other player can beat her at this tournament.Especially that I saw other players and Ivanovic, Jankovic and Dementieva who are likely to play in a final are just no match for Serena at the moment.

Mr Intensity Posted May 9, 2008 Author Share Posted May 9, 2008 Re: ATP Rome & WTA Berlin 5th-11th May Ah screw it. I'm not betting these because I'm skint so trying to win Sports-Punter this month:lol:ok ROBREDO -2 @ 2.15 Pinnacle. This just seems like a big overreaction to me. This is Roddick, on clay! He has a reasonable record here, and this is clearly his best European clay court event but still I'm surprised by the prices. Fish was dreadful in his first match, I can't describe how bad he was. Bolelli seemed really tired and mentally not quite up for the job. Especially in the tiebreak and the second set his movement was limited and he was clearly tired. I've been having fun opposing Robredo this year, however he does seem to be playing much better lately. Since hitting the European clay he is 10-3 with only losses to Ferrer twice and Nalbandian playing incredible stuff. I was actually impressed with him last night, Davydenko played well in parts and Tommy did well to hang with him and was strong towards the end. If he isn't tired after that battle I'm sure he'll be too strong and should grind Roddick down. H2H is 7-0 to Roddick without dropping a set which is a big concern. However, last meeting was in 2004 and a lot has changed since then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
