Thanks for the post buddy.  I do love Bartoli's game.  She is a feisty one and has a lot of skill to boot.  One thing that does scare me is this matchup has some drama to it.  Last time these two met Bartoli retired and refused to shake her opponents hand.  These type of stipulations in matches just scare me off as anyone can be motivated in this situation.

Good luck though, will be rooting for you.

Yea that is perfect thinking Paul.  I don't really want to ride the Oudin bandwagon either, but those 16 points in a row were very impressive to watch.  She hits very hard and this tournament sparks something in her.  Home soil is where she strives and I think she gets it done for us today bud.  Best of luck PIW.

nice write-ups.  like those plays today.


Fair question sims, although it does come across as sort of a cheapshot...Nevertheless I never post units or numerical profit.  Been posting picks for 3 years and I have never done it and never will.  Don't get me wrong, I have respect for those who post their units but I don't really think most bring value to the forums.  Most just post their picks, units and profits...you don't state why you like the pick. I would rather take the time to explain my reasoning.

I don't post for the casual tail, I post for educated bettors who want to compare analysis and thoughts on games. I don't need, nor desire to post my unit profit or loss statistically. I have had 5 winning tournaments in a row sims, you can feel free to go back and calculate units if you wish. All I care about is progressive, consistent PROFIT. Since you asked me a question, I'll ask you.  Why did you close your U.S Open thread and start a new one?

why are you acting like this?

all you need to say is, "no, i got -370" or better yet, just post what you got.

this is why you get in such big arguments with people here.

ADDING

JANKO TIPSAREVIC TO TAKE AT LEAST 1 SET (+100) - - - Tipsy has beaten Roddick straight up at a grand slam before.  I think the ml price is great but can't pull the trigger on Roddick going down just yet.  Tipsy always plays Andy well and causes him consistent problems.  I like the chances of Tipsy getting something off Roddick tonight.

LOL, I thought it was quite funny sims.  Guess you didn't.  I have seen you on numerous occasions attack posters for "not having any balls"...I got big sensitive ones kid.  I like reacting sims :) It's what I do.  Truce, peace, waiving the white flag.  No more arguing its not worth it.

It's called exaggeration for the sake of picking a bone.

I tailed you on Mello & Benesova. I will do also today on Oudin. Bondarenko was drenched by the time her 3 setter was finished, and today the forecast calls for temperatures to be in the middle 90's. I'm hoping for another long match, and for Bondarenko to wear down in the heat. Thanks for your contributions to the forum. GL.

Mak is a positive to the forum when he cuts the nonsense. I agree with Sims though...if your going to post unit plays I think you should keep a unit record.  If not just post your picks and insight and leave out the units aspect. Units record is the most important aspect of betting...not your overall record. Units means money +/- ...which is what matters.

Solid job on the Mello and Benesova picks

Man you two haters will nit pick at any little thing when it comes to me.  Cheap shot after cheap shot and then you politely compliment me at the end of your post.  You don't want me to place the units for games?  Are you serious?  How exactly would people decipher how much I like the play? I post profit guys, that is what matters.  Progressive profit, if you two want to count up units then go ahead already. And Sparty why are you still posting on my thread? You guys need to seriously just leave me alone.  I take the time, I post my thoughts, I try to help.  Leave me be.  If you don't like my attitude or something specific about the way I wager fine, just stop with all this nonsense and stay out of my threads.

MANDY MINELLA (+300) - - - No name qualifies here but I believe more then capable of knocking off Pironkova.  Minella coming off an impressive 4 match run at the 2010 U.S Open.  3 qualifies win including wins over Shenay Perry and Rodionova then topping it off with a straight sets first round win over 48th ranked Hercog.  Mandy is a hard court specialist and over the past year has accumilated a 17-8 record on the surface.  Minella regularly defeats lower ranked players.  She is 8-2 in her last 10 matches and 30-16 overall. Pironkova has lost to 12 players ranked over 100 in the past year and most of them were on hard court, she does not like the surface and loses half of her matches when playing on this surface.  I think this dog has a decent chance to bark.
1 UNIT - - -   

Minella 6-4, 6-0 . Great call
