Tennis 29.10-04.11.2007 - Men & Women

One of the biggest ATP Tournament played in Paris this week.
BNP PARIBAS MASTERS

And WTA goes in Quebec City for what seems quite a mediocre tourney to me:

Hope for successful week and many opinions

[engineer]

Went for some outright winners in Paris after looking at the main draw singles:
(certainly with the intention of laying later)
Tommy Robredo @90
Richard Gasquet @60
Andrew Murray @28

BTW is it 100% sure whether Big Rog will play in Paris. Does anyone know something?

[engineer]

For today I fancy Fish to beat Tursunov - 1 pt and Seppi to beat Querrey - 2.5 pts.
All games in Paris are quite interesting and I'll try to find more decent bets later.

[engineer]

Both bets won, nice beginning of the week, later I'll be on:
Clement to beat Youzhny - 1.5 pts
Ferrero to beat Baghy - 2 pts

[engineer]

Also Ancic to beat PHM again after Madrid. Expekt are surprisingly offering great price - 1.91 and I'm taking it bravely - 2.5 pts.

Hope somebody else will pop up in this thread till the end of the week

I was in Prague whole day, but I will write my horrible tennis opinions tomorow

[engineer]

Cheers, Mord.

Cheers, Mord , I'm sure your opinions won't be that bad.

Will Vaidisova win the tournament in Quebec to finish the season in style?

That morning I noticed the price for Gasquet (outright winner) increased to 95 and took some more of it.
He should do it to the 1/4 finals at least. He'll face Tsonga (I don't think he'll stop him twice in a row) or Grosjean, then out of sort Blake or Mahut. In the quarters it'll be a different story - Djoko or Murray, and the lay will come.

what about Davydenko 2-0? after he was penalized for lack of efford in the game he should be more careful (for few games) and try to show that still can play tennis

Wouldn't put even anybody else's money on that mug in a non-grand-slam tournament. Del Potro showed great tennis yesterday and I hope the Argie to send him to prepare for Shanghai earlier.

[mord]

ok wanted to hear this will lay it small stakes

[engineer]

Some small bets for the evening:
Gonzalez to beat Youzhny
Ancic to beat Berdych
Ancic vs Berdych - over 24.5 games

Women:
Lay Davenport at 1.04!!!
Double - Tu + Cornet

[redroar]

Personally I think Davydenko will murder Del Potro today. I agree I'd avoid him in the small tournies but his three masters have produced a semi and two quarters and i think he has a point too prove. I still cant believe the ATP fining him $2000 talk about a token gesture.

[redroar]

Going for young guns quad today with Murray
Djokovic
Nadal
Gasquet @2.43

Good luck all

[redroar]

surprisingly it was djokovic who let me down, but davydenko produced the goods. I think he really is out too prove a point and I'll be backing him all the way to the semi's and possibly the final as well.
