• Youzhny should be too much for a clay courter like Zeballos --- 6-1 7-6

• Same case with Johannson, in worst case Johannson wins this in one tiebreak and 6-4 . --- 7-5 6-2 ~~:<<

• 2 almost local girls against much weaker players . Their opponents have just lost to M. Shaughnessy/R. Vinci last week 6-3 6-2 on same surface and if nothing goes wrong there should be a similar result here . --- 6-2 6-0 @)

Uncanny calls here, your parlays are money in the bank!
Between you and n19dlo, 6 matches picked and not 1 single set lost, that's 12-0 among the six players chosen.... it doesn't get any better than that!!! <><>

 

[TheBrainiac]

Kiefer ( Moscow ) + Nieminen ( Stockholm ) + Clijsters ( Luxembourg )

• Kiefer didn't perform well lately but he has won 3 matches in Quali here without much trouble while Granollers had to play challenger tournaments on clay ( lost to 281 ranked player 2 weeks ago in rd 2 ) because he would go out in 1st rounds of ATP events on hardcourts with his current form . His overall record on hardcourts + indoor is 33:42 and last match he has played on hardcourts was 2 monthes ago where he was forced to withdraw against Soderling , last match on same indoor courts was around 1 year ago . Kiefer has awesome 15-3 record in this tournament and even tho he got older now he still should be way too much for someone like Granollers to handle .

• Nieminen has played Dimitrov last week in Denmark and won 6-2 6-7(4) 6-2 . Looks like he was clearly the better player here , lost 2nd set going to distance but won the other 2 pretty easy . Dimitrov still too young to win matches against crafty veterans and he lacks playing IQ . Nieminen has very solid record in this tournament , being a scandinavian should get him enough support here from the crowd . Match will be played on almost same court and I don't see why there should be different winner here , if anything it looks like Dimitrov got lucky even winning one set last week .

• Added Kim for extra $55 profit , watched her doubles match yesterday and she will win this tournament but odds are way too low at 1.75 to win the whole thing . Poor Meghann will be destroyed here .

Wager Type : ATP Handicap

IF Stockholm Open R1

Start time :07:15 AM PST

Michael Berrer vs Henri Kontinen

My pick is Henri Kontinen + 4 GAMES

Odds : + 106

Where : pinnaclesports

5 units to win 5.3 units


Courts are playing very fast and Kontinen was + 80% first serves won in all 3 qualifying matches . Berrer is nothing special , big guy with solid serve and horrible movement . I cant see him getting a lot of chances to break , he is the favorite to win but I think this will be closer than 6-4 6-3 if he wins . Big motivation for the 19 year old from Finland , chance for him to show what he can do on the court and there should be some support from the crowd for their scandinavian neighbor .

Wager Type : ATP Underdog

IF Stockholm Open R1

Start time :09:35 AM PST

Andreas Vinciguerra vs Olivier Rochus

My pick is Andreas Vinciguerra to win

Odds : + 123

Where : pinnaclesports

5 units to win 6.15 units


Not a big fan of betting on the underdogs but I really like local man in this spot . Andreas was ranked as high as 33 but had to retire for a certain period of time because of an injury . I've watched him play in Bastad ( Sweden ) this year on clay and he was very motivated to perform well in his home country , beating Serra , Canas and Melzer before going out in the semis to a good friend of his Robin Soderling who has ended up winning in the finals as well . That is tournament of the year for Andreas and he will give 200% today against a very beatable opponent . He hasn't played in around 1 month , which is a little bit of a concern but I think he is ready to play today , motivation should be big enough .
Rochus had trouble against 1000th ranked unknown last week on same surface in Denmark but managed to win after losing the first set , lost in the next round tho .
I am banking on local hero to show up today , will be a huge support for him in the crowd , same as yesterday for Johansson . Might be close one in the end but more facts speak for Vinciguerra here : just another place to pick up a paycheck at for Rochus and tournament of the year for his opponent , skillwise there is no real difference between those two .

Wager Type : Prop bet

IF Stockholm Open R1

Start time :09:35 AM PST

Robin Soderling vs Giovanni Lapentti

Player 1 to Hold Serve all match ( Robin Soderling )

My pick is YES

Odds : 2.30

Where : sportingbet

5 units to win 6.5 units


Great value here IMO considering I don't think any other score here but something like 6-3 6-1 .
G.Lapentti is a LL ( lucky loser ) , lost in quali but still got a chance to play . In last quali round he has lost to Nielsen 2-6 4-6 and only managed to get 1 breakpoint against 290th ranked player , not convering so Nielsen held serve all match .
Courts are playing very fast , last year Soderling hasn't got broken in the first 4 mathes here ! before losing in the finals to Nalbandian . Don't see Lapentti getting many looks on his serve and there wont be many service games played by Soderling considering no sets should be close .

 

[SonnyCrockett]

nice hit on Stakhovsky

brake after break...

 

[TheBrainiac]

Looks like its time to call it season , nobody gives a fk anymore . That was just plain pathetic at 5-3 40-15 up , Jankovic would probably stop fighting if she lost the first 6-3 .
