7 October

Wager Type : Doubles

If Stockholm Open Doubles

Start time : 8:15AM (EST)

Jeff Coetzee/Wesley Moodie vs Robert Lindstedt/Robin Soderling

My pick is Robert Lindstedt/Robin Soderling to win

Odds : - 122

Bookmaker : 5dimes

3.05 units to win 2.5 units

Tricky one but I will go with swedish duo , both guys are solid and should get enough support here from the crowd to pull them over the line and win this match . Moodie didnt play since Wimledon , I couldnt find out if he was injured but this is a long layoff time .

7 October

Wager Type : Doubles

ATP Kremlin Cup Doubles

Start time : 6:00AM (EST)

Denis Gremelmayr/Yen-Hsun Lu vs Frantisek Cermak/Rogier Wassen

My pick is Frantisek Cermak/Rogier Wassen to win

Odds : - 240

Bookmaker : 5dimes

6 units to win 2.5 units

Chances are this doesnt happen as Lu retired yesterday against Andreev but whatever , this is worth a try to have your money tied for few minutes if match gets canceled . Neither Gremelmayr nor Lu should be even allowed to have a spot in doubles tournaments , guys better stick to CH singles .

Hi Brainiac

What are your thoughts between Simon and Schwank today? Simon is at -226 or -3 at -122?

Schwank is at +206 or +3 at +106.

thanks

TheBrainiac · Oct 7, 2008

Dunno , Simon didnt impress me in his clear loss against Mahut , doesnt make me wanna jump on those odds but Schwank isnt great on hardcourts either . If Simon plays like he did few weeks ago he should win easily but who is going to bank on this with a mug like Simon .

CAP-IT-OFF · Oct 7, 2008

Sounds good. BOL on your plays today.

TheBrainiac · Oct 7, 2008

Thanks , Simon's match starts with a break and a rebreak , probably gonna be a mug match .

TheBrainiac · Oct 30, 2008

7-2 with last doubles plays , like one today . Going to update record at the end of the season or this weekend if I have time . Not much time left to play this year so I will probably stick to betting on doubles matches when I see something decent .

Last tournament this year and this is a very important one for Coetzee and Moodie , one spot left for Tennis Masters Cup Doubles and they have great chance to get this last 8th spot . At the moment they are 9 points behind M.Fyrstenberg/M.Matkowski ... BUT today the duo from Poland who are also still left in this tournament will face Bryan brothers who are very likely to beat them so with a win today Coetzee and Moodie can secure 8th spot if M.Fyrstenberg/M.Matkowski don't beat Bryan brothers . In the last 3 years Bryans won this tournament twice and made semis once , also they lead H2H with M.Fyrstenberg/M.Matkowski 4:0 and 8-0 sets .
Coetzee/Moodie face J.Murray/Vizner today who play together for the first time and I think Coetzee and Moodie will come in very movitaved to pick up this win and see if Bryans do the rest for them later .

ThePig+ · Oct 30, 2008

you like anyone in the singles matches in paris?

Djokovich?

TheBrainiac · Oct 30, 2008

Leans on Kohli , Roddick , Davydenko and Del Potro but most matches today I think are coin flips . Probably only going to bet in-play .

TheBrainiac · Oct 30, 2008

Going to back A-Rod pre-match , Simon with 11 matches in 16 days should be tired no doubt and he tends to slow start so good spot to take Andy I think .

TheBrainiac · Oct 31, 2008

Winner .

Like that two doubles plays today . Amazing good price on frenchies IMO against Ram/Soares who never played together before . Impressive win for the duo from Poland yesterday over Bryans , will go with them today as they are fighting for that last spot in Masters Cup with Coetzee/Moodie who will play later today against Monaco/Nadal .

Hey Brain you should join us over @ tennisinsight ~ Enjoy your breakdowns... Fryst&Matz have been on fire !!!

10-2 with last doubles plays .

Srebotnik and Sugiyama just beat them a week ago in Linz 6-3 6-3 however they also lost to them here in Doha earlier this season very easy 6-2 6-0 . I am not sure if one of them was injured or whatever else because I dont believe they would lose like that if everything was aight .
Anyway Srebotnik and Sugiyama lost a close one last year to Black/Huber in the finals with 8-10 in the decider and I believe this year we will see same finals .

C.Black/L.Huber should also get it done against A.Medina Garrigues/V.Ruano Pascual so - 245 odds are set well .

TheBrainiac · Nov 8, 2008

Lost first set 3-6 but leading 4-1 now in the 2nd , hope they can pull it off .

Straight Bet

Selection 1:
Sony Ericsson Semi Finals Doubles, Tennis
C. Black/L. Huber 8-November-2008 3:30 AM PST
Match Odds for Match -232
Risking 1,160.00 to Win 500.00 USD

Couldnt stop myself from adding this one , - 232 seems like a decent price . Black and Huber are great on those courts holding a 66-17 record on hardcourts + amazing 36-5 on indoor hard . They played against each other 3 times this year and Black/Huber came up on twice losing at French Open on their last fav surface - clay . Earlier this year they played in Doha and at US Open where Black/Huber won rather easily .

TheBrainiac · Nov 9, 2008

1-1 for with - 200 $ but hope to make it back today .

Fading K.Peschke/R.Stubbs again , believe Black/Huber should have too much for them otherwise they will cost me in this short tournament .
