Hey Sportz I think we'll call you Quincy your always doing a post mortem (boom boom)
Seiously though folks
I layed "the big 2" Federer & Roddick @1.38 against the field (tournament winner)couldnt resist only having to pay out only a third of my stake if i lost so you know who ill be cheering on tonight .....Cmonnnnn!!!! ....I was tempted to back the Safin last night but thought Id leave well enough alone ..........Hes done half the job for me and hope LLLLLLLeyton can do the rest tonight so I dont have to sit out the final

CMONNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sportz 28th January 2005 08:20 AM

Yeah, thanks a lot. :o

Floydy, I must admit I still struggle to understand that sort of bet. What does it actually mean? What do you win if Roddick loses and what happens if he wins?

What a top match! Federer had his chances all the way through the last two sets so no excuses can be made. Glad i didnt take federer to win the grand slam (AO being the most unpredictable), however i put him in my multi's in each round so therefore when he lost last night it didnt leave a dent at all in my starting balance

Sportz 28th January 2005 08:53 AM

Yeah, a really great match. One of the best.

By the way, for the people in southern states, is it true that Channel 7 left the Davenport/Dechy semi-final half way through to go to the news? If so, it just shows how little respect they have for Womens Tennis. They'd never think of leaving a Mens semi-final. In fact, I think they probably left the womens match so that they could show the Federer/Safin match from the start.

The bet is (either federer or roddick to win tourney) @1.38 against the field......... but in reverse (I layed them at that price) they (betfair)often have those bets the big 2 or the big 3 eg "woods and singh" against the field .
So if neither of them win the tournament I win ......Cmonnnnnnnnnnn

Floydyboy 28th January 2005 09:21 AM

In saying that I had a small bet on Feder not to win 3-0 against Agassi

I wouldnt have liked to have beeen standing in between those two last night what an exhibition of power tennis toe to toe punch for punch ..Great match

I'm glad Hewitt won.

Safin vs Hewitt
first swt score - I'm backing Safin 7-6 and Hewitt 7-6. I just think it will be tie breaker. and if it is i can celebrate at 6-6 knowing that i'm sure of profit. then i can just support hewitt

Floydyboy 30th January 2005 02:02 PM

Safin 1.69- Hewitt 2.42 ...at B/F
anyone have opinions
I like hewitt at the price but the jurys still out as to wether ill have a bet or not

Sportz 30th January 2005 02:04 PM

When can we expect the jury to return a verdict? :)
