Very bad serving by Berdych . Second set he just tanked . What a joke .

Nalbandian beat Fedex in 2 sets . Wish I took him when he was 6.00 odds .

Adding 5 more units on Andy Murray as this will be my last tennis pick of this year .

I think many people overrate Gasquets wins this week against Tsonga and Blake . Both of them are perfect playing styles for Gasquet while Andy Murray is not . Gasquet with straight sets losses to Tsonga and Paul-Henri Mathieu before this tournament in the last two weeks . Andy on the other hand won 9 out of 10 matches with his only loss coming from Rafael Nadal . This was an amazing match and both players very really awesome . Murray lost this match in a tough fight .

Gasquet won the first set 6-4 , crowd was yelling a lot and Murray was nervous and ended up losing this game to get broken .
0-5 for Andy in the second set now tho . Gasquet is nervous , it is just scary , he makes unforced error like every shot but Andy plays very aggressive tho . I will cry if Gasquet wins this one but I cant see a way he can win this unless Andy retires now :nohead:

BNP Paribas Masters FINALS

N301_AT.jpg
vs
N409_AT.jpg


David Nalbandian Rafael Nadal

My pick is David Nalbandian 1.9 at betfair 30 units !!!

My largest bet in the whole season and the it is going to be the final one for this year .

I am really impressed with David Nalbandian . This guy is a machine . Nadal with a tough match against Baghdatis and I see Nalbandian winning this tournament tomorrow .
They already played 2 weeks ago and David Nalbandian killed Rafa 6:1 , 6:2 . Nalbandian is in an amazing form right now and will finish this season with back-to-back ATP Masters Series shields wins after his outstanding performance in Madrid two weeks ago where he beat Nadal , Djokovic and Federer in the finals . ... and I am gonna finish this season with a huge WIN :pope:

nice call on david.
when he is in shape, he's the best player on tour, even better than RF.
i wonder if he can resist the urge to pig out during the offseason.
that has been his problem in the past

Amazing performance by David Nalbandian and the end of the season .

nadalnalbandian_paris8.jpg
David Nalbandian claimed back-to-back ATP Masters Series titles with a 6-4, 6-0 victory over World No. 2 Rafael Nadal in the final of the BNP Paribas Masters on Sunday.
Not only is Nalbandian the first player to defeat World No. 1 Roger Federer and World No. 2 Rafael Nadal in the same tournament twice, he also becomes the first man to defeat them both in a final.
Former World No. 3 Nalbandian won just his career-first ATP Masters Series shield in Madrid two weeks ago, becoming the second man since Boris Becker at 1994 Stockholm to defeat the Top 3 players at the same tournament, defeating World No. 2 Nadal in the quarterfinals, World No. 3 Djokovic in the semifinals, and World No. 1 Federer in the final.
How the final was won
The 25-year-old Argentine recorded his second win in three weeks over Roger Federer in the third round in Paris, defeating the Swiss in straight sets before edging past No. 5 seed David Ferrer in the quarterfinals and dismissing final Shanghai qualifier Richard Gasquet in the semifinals on Saturday.
On the Bubble: Race to Shanghai Prior to his title run in Madrid, Nalbandian had reached just one quarterfinal in 15 events this season, falling to David Ferrer in Barcelona.
Nalbandian becomes the first man since Marat Safin in 2004 to win the Paris and Madrid Masters series titles back-to-back.
Nalbandian now improves to 4-0 against the Top 2 players this season, all four wins coming against Federer and Nadal at AMS Madrid and Paris.
Tennis Masters Cup qualifier Nadal was seeking his seventh title of 2007, having already claimed his third straight Roland Garros title in June (d. Federer), when he become the first to do so since Bjorn Borg won four in a row from 1978-1981. The Spaniard has also amassed three AMS titles in Indian Wells (d. Djokovic), Monte-Carlo (d. Federer) and Rome (d. Gonzalez).
The 21-year-old Spaniard now has a 9-3 record in ATP Masters Series finals, winning at least two Masters Series shields each season since 2005. He is 23-6 in all ATP finals.
Nadal has won 26 of his past 27 matches in the French capital, recording three straight title runs at Roland Garros, and four victories this week on his debut at Paris Bercy.
WHAT THE PLAYERS SAID
David Nalbandian: "Rafa started playing better [early] than in the end. He served very good in the beginning, too. Played more deep and with a lot of intensity, too. So for me it was a little tougher. But after I break him, I feel that I was playing better than him. I played more relaxed, started hitting winners almost from everywhere. That gave me confidence. Then everything was just going until the end.
"I never thought that I can win Madrid and Paris like the way I did. But I feel that I play very good from the last Sunday, not just today. All week I was playing great, and I don't know why the result was so easy."
Rafael Nadal: "It was a very good first set. The second set I played bad, very bad. But he started playing very good. I have my chances a little bit in the first set. Not much, because he's playing with unbelievable confidence.
"He's one of the best players of the world. You just have to congratulate him... I never saw him play like this. Today I played against one who is playing better than me and than the rest of the players, too."
</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>



I will sit back and enjoy Masters Cup in Shanghai . Not a great start for me with tennis betting but I suffered few big losses with 20 units on Clement against Becker and 15 units on Berdych against Ferrer . I will try something new next year . Maybe betting more *underdogs* or trying to bet on games handicap .

Frank Dancevic (CAN) Simone Bolelli (ITA)

My pick is Frank Dancevic 1.68 at betfair 3 units

Bolelli is nothing special in my books and he wont be able to deal with strong serve of Frank in my opinion where Frank should get his break chances .

Cant find any decent price on Kudryavtsev against Amritraj from Chennai Open . Kudryavtsev is a solid player with a win over Kunitsyn in the Qual. I dont know much about his opponent but from what I found about him hes nothing special .

Just like I predicted Max played his usual style - big serve and rushing to the net , well not against Lee .

Nice win for Dancevic , got close in the second set but still came through of course .

Win + 2.04 units

RTD : 20-11 + 15.91 units


I will give you one more pick for today guys .

Qatar Open 2008 Doubles

Start time : 12:45PM (EST)

F.Santoro/S.Wawrinka vs M.Fyrstenberg/M.Matkowski

My pick is M.Fyrstenberg/M.Matkowski to win

5.6 units to win 4 units at 5dimes


Santoro is a great doubles player however he never played together with Wawrinka who has a 17 - 29 doubles record .

Their opponents are both good doubles players who always play together and won some titles in 2007 finishing the season in top 10 .

<TABLE class=WL_Table><TBODY><TR class=WL_Tr_Header><TD colSpan=2>YEAR</TD><TD>TOTAL</TD><TD>CLAY</TD><TD>HARD</TD><TD>IHARD</TD><TD>CARPET</TD><TD>GRASS</TD><TD>ACRYLIC</TD></TR><TR class=tr_inter><TD colSpan=9></TD></TR><TR class=WL_ML2><TD class=WL_Td_Year>2007</TD><TD class=WL_Td_ML>Major events</TD><TD class=WL_Td_Good>37-23</TD><TD class=WL_Td_Good>14-10</TD><TD class=WL_Td_Normal>11-9</TD><TD class=WL_Td_Good>11-2</TD><TD class=WL_Td_Normal>1-2</TD><TD class=WL_Td_Normal>0-0</TD><TD class=WL_Td_Normal>0-0
</TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE>

As you can see they can play on hardcourts and I see them winning today . Santoro had to play a 3 set match against Seppi yesterday in the singles and you got to remember that he is not the youngest anymore , add that Wawrinka is still playing his singles match at the moment and wont have more than 1 hour rest before the game .

good call. Does Dominika join the young brigade of Szavay, Radswanka and Paszek in '08? Two decisive wins under her belt to start '08

Thanks man , too bad I dropped money on that doubles match . Wawa is playing very nice even in 2 vs 2 .

I have one more pick for today . I see many people on Lee but I have different view on this match . Watched Calleri against Robredo and Calleri looked really good yesterday . I had my money on Lee in the first round versus Max Mirnyi however there was no surprise for me that he won .
If Agustin doesnt have an off day he will advance to the next round in my opinion .

2 January

Qatar Open 2008 R16

Start time : 7.30 AM - PST

C478_AT.jpg
vs
L311_TP.jpg


Agustin Calleri (ARG) Hyung-Taik Lee (KOR)

My pick is Agustin Calleri - 130 at 5dimes 5.2 units


Other matches today I have a look at :

F. Santoro/S. Wawrinka vs C. Kas/R. Wassen

I think Kas and Wassen are good dogs at 2.70 on betandwin even tho Santoro and Wawrinka won very easy in the round before .

J. Coetzee / W. Moodie vs M. Mirnyi/J. Murray

1.60 at on Mirnyi and Jamie Murray lookes very decent . Both are great doubles players . They never partnered up before however I see them advancing to the next round because they are superior 2 vs 2 players in this match .

I was really flipping and flopping on Calleri but didn't go through with the bet! When he's on, he plays amazing lights out tennis. He's looking good against Lee. Hope it comes through for you. :toast:
