Week Off Work



Well third time lucky in keeping this post up! twice i've tried to post and it seems to vanish somewhere after publishing! ah well I will say again - IM OFF WORK FOR THE WEEK....;)

The Toray Pan Pacific Open (WTA) is on all morning this week on Eurosport so will be trading that, didnt get much trading in over the last week as the mens and womens tour has been over in the far east so most of the matches have been played in the morning while i've been at work..

Hopefully there will be the usual big swings and the unreal double faults from even some of the top players in the womens game...

I dont play online poker much anymore but do try to play a few of the decent mtts on Betfair on a Sunday, smaller fields than the ridic sizes on Pokerstars...and last night had a nice result...came 2nd for $3582 in a 959 peeps tourney. Was a steady journey with no big suckouts, just played solid and tight, was unlucky in the end heads up, blinds had got massive and I shoved with kq, he called with qj off and hit a jack to take the $5k plus...

Really happy with the $$$ but you still end up a bit peeved when you dont take the first prize, ah well beats a week at work!!!

6 Players left and close in chips...



Gone for a slash, heads up....

Us Open 2012 - Andy Murray



What a brilliant final, stayed up till the 2.30am finish and was well charped at work next day! When it got to 2-2 I thought Murray had blown it but he he fought really well and I had already greened up by then so all was good! Never thought this would be 3-0 to either player so had layed that in the set betting from the start...

Has been a fantastic few weeks tennis trading, also layed Woods in the golf which seems to be a good move these days as people just back him at low odds blindly whatever hes doing...

The smaller tennis tourneys that are on at the moment are looking good with plenty of swings with them been Wta, most of these women outisde the top 50 can barely serve!

Below is the last week which has been my best ever and even a green in the mugs field that is horse racing!

Us Open 2012


Been a really enjoyable Us Open with many close matches and some great trade chances! great to see Laura Robson do so well and she has a brilliant future ahead of her, love her carefree attitude in interviews aswell...

Hopefully neither Sharopova or Azarenka will win the womens tournament as the noise they make is just ridiculous and they really should forfeit points at certain moments. Think Murray really may have a chance this time even when he went a set and 1-5 behind he bounced back!

As usual a few losing horse trades to go along with another good week, just a shame not much more televised tennis to come apart from the smaller tournaments that get shown on Betfair...im on a roll so want as much tennis as possible! ;)


*** Tonights Trade ***

Just traded the Tipsarevic Vs Ferrer match...Tips went 2-0 and his odds dropped from 3.5 to just above 2s, I put in a lay on Tips as it was Ferrer making errors not Tips playing brilliant, thankfully from this point Ferrer stormed forward and I took a nice green...


Edit - 10pm - Ferrer hit 4s in play since, anyones match now!
