[engineer]

Opening the thread with many difficulties, hope it will be possible to post more often this week.

Can't even paste the web adresses of the tournaments...

Anyway, hope for an interesting tennis week

[Martens]

hello engeener

have a nice week!

my first selection is Kohlisch....or something LOL, very difficult german name to beat Benneteau

price @1.5 looks reasonable

i like this guy kohli espesially when play in germany

lets start the week with wiining bet

[engineer]

Hello, Martens
I'm with the German also...

Many bets for me today, took bet-at-home's 100% deposit bonus offer and now should turn the money over several times
So my bets today will be mainly there.

Vanek to beat Berlocq - 3pts

Daniel to beat Volandri - 5 pts (took 2.20 in the morning, but obviously the whole world seems to be opposing Volandri, so the prices changed dramatically)

Cavaday to beat Craybas - 1pt

Llagostera to beat Peer - 3pts

Gremelmayr to beat Becker - 2.5pts

Bjorkman to beat Kunitsyn - 5 pts

Acca - Tipsarevic+ Loit + Kohlscreiber + Soderling + Ancic - 4 pts

[rcgills]

With you on quite a few of those today, Engineer, am also on Daniel (2pts), Llagostera Vives (2pts), and I've laid Craybas 2-0 v Cavaday (to win 2pts).

Other than I've also gone with Falla to beat Nishikori (4pts), Poutchek to beat grass-court novice Olaru (3pts), De Voest to beat Santoro (2pts) and I've laid Wickmayer 2-0 v Fedossova (liability 3pts), as Fedossova looks to have had some reasonable results in qualifying.

Then have gone with a Safin/Cilic/Hewitt/Falla/Kohlschreiber/Rybarikova/ Amanmuradova accy for 0.5pts

And have just laid Sprem in running @ 1.3 while 5-0 up first set against Zakopalova.

Good luck today

And one more, a lay of Guccione 2-0 v Lu (to win 2pts).

[engineer]

Starting with two early bets for the challenger in Sofia:
(bet-at-home) A decent bookie BTW, with great range of markets, espesially tennis, but I won't be using it much in the future.

Dimitrov to beat Recouderc @2.35- 2 pts

Crivoi to beat Collerer @2.10 - 4pts

The young Bulgarian - Dimitrov did really well in the French Open U17, beating the home boy Eiseric and today he faces another Frenchman who is not better player I reckon (maybe a bit more experienced) and the flying Dimitrov should prove himself infront of the home crowd. Tasty price and I'm taking it.

The Romanian Crivoi found place in the main draw of RG and he's quite promissing player also. I don't see him as an outsider today and will lump at that nice price, don't think it will stay till the afternoon.

[engineer]

From the big action:

Tursunov to beat Youzhny - 3 pts

Darcis to beat Rochus - 3 pts

Llodra to beat Ljube - 6 pts

Haase to beat Kiefer - 1 pt

Hernych to beat Baghy - 1.25 pts

Minar to beat Reynolds - 2.5 pts

Fognini to beat G. G. Lopez - 4 pts

Roitman to beat Hernandez - 2 pts

Janowicz to beat Monaco - 0.5 pts

[engineer]

No ladies for me today

Another one from Sofia:

Enev to beat Gard @2.20 - 4.5 pts

[rcgills]

You seem to have gone through half of my shortlist there, Engineer Ended up deciding against a few of them though - Tursunov (reluctantly decided the prices are about right there), Darcis (very little experience on grass), Hernych (going to give Baghdatis the benefit of the doubt here), Minar (poor form) and Fognini (just back from injury), but they were all on my shortlist.

My bets for today are 6pts on Mahut @ 1.91 (excellent grass court player, runner-up here last year), 2pts on Schuettler @ 2.86 (home crowd behind him I think may just be enough to tip this one in his favour), 4pts on Poutchek @ 1.9 (Krajicek has now lost an amazing 12 matches in a row) and lay Domachowska (liability 2pts). Also trying to lay Kiefer 2-0 v Haase @ 2.16 (already got matched for a bit, hoping to get matched to make it up to 3pts liability in total), although like you I think Haase actually stands a decent chance of winning the match outright, but prefer to lay Kiefer 2-0 to be on the safe side.

Good luck today

[Martens]

Hernych to beat baghda is good choice, one point of view;

baghda out of courts three months now, including one month totally out of trainings

baghda years of light away of his potential top form..

however, the precense of peter Lundgren as his new coach, prevents me to bet here...

lets see.. NO BET

[kompressaur]

Is this the Artois tournie thats on the tv? If so im wondering about Andrew mussay at the mo. bah the 5/6 has gone and now he's 4/7. ah well

[engineer]

Welcome, Komp.

Sorry, couldn't post today and yesterday, maybe several bets tomorrow.
Murray is having a tough match at the moment against Gulbis, this Latvian guy is really promising...

[kompressaur]
