Had Erakovic too. What a ripoff. Not saying I should have won at all, but I thought I would get a lot of action if I did after 6-3 3-3 30-40 on the Baltacha serve. but she reels off ten games in a row so quickly that I wondered if Erakovic was injured. Killed all the suspense and you could feel from the scoreboard a few games in that this streak was coming. Just a horrible meltdown there. If she was not injured then that says a lot about her mentally and how she handles frontrunning.

Insight is always helpful...include some on your plays if you can

Without it ...you look like your just blindly playing dogs

Fair enough, but no offense... i'm not really worried about how it looks to other people. I've been posting plays (and winning) on here for long enough that people know that I know what i'm doing. If you don't want to follow, you don't have to.

Chiudinelli +122 1 Unit to win 1.22 Units (Chiudinelli been playing decent tennis lately and Hard court is his best surface. Dabul prefers the clay... good spot for the dog to cash here)

De Bakker +193 1 Unit to win 1.93 Units (This is the type of match that could see nothing but 7-6 sets, 2 big servers... De Bakker is worth a shot at this price in a match where they'll be hardly any breaks)

Berrer +310 1 Unit to win 3.10 Units (Mainly a fade of Verdasco here, he's just not looking like the top 10 player he has been the last year or so. Until he returns to form he's fade material)

Zemlja +864 0.5 Units to win 4.32 Units (I'll give the big dog a shot here. He played very well in cashing for me yesterday by crushing Becker and at this price with a big serve i'll roll the dice with him again)

Did I say a long time? or did I say long enough? Since i've been posting on daily basis i've had winning days in something like 13 of 16 and winning weeks in both of the last 2.

If you don't like my thread, then keep it moving... I post these plays to try and help people. Nobody is making you play them or even look at them. Go elsewhere if you have a problem..

How are you helping people when you include zero insight? At least the plays above you included a little bit...but not much.

If your trying to help people...help them understand why people win matches. And that comes from insight and breaking down the matches. Without insight we as posters have no idea of whether your knowledgable or just plain lucky.

Helping people isn't giving them fish...its teaching them how to fish

Sorry my thread doesn't meet your level of criteria. Common sense would say 13 of 16 winning days (roughly, would have to go back and count for 100% accuracy) points more towards being knowledgable then lucky, but maybe that's just me.

Would you consider Paul the octopus a knowledgable World Cup capper? He was 8-0 I believe?

Did I ever say your terrible? I have no idea of what you are...because you don't post insight.

You might be a very knowledgable person... if so lets see some of your thought process on these plays.

Do you not comprehend anything I have mentioned to you?

I'm incapable of comprehending any of it. You are clearly way too smart for me.
