Tues 6/7 tennis

YTD: 127-84-2, +93.18 units

Stella Artois

3 units PHILIPPOUSSIS +113 over Sluiter....neither player has played much tennis this yr on the ATP tour so there isn't much of an advantage there. Grass definately suits the scuds game more than it does for Sluiter, the big question mark here will be can Philippoussis' body hold up, as he has been injury prone during his career. This should be a nice tuneup match for him, as if he is on his game I cannot forsee Sluiter providing much resistance for him. I think he has one more run left in his creaking body, and it will start with a win here over Sluiter. Scud has a 2-0 h2h record over Sluiter but neither was on grass and neither has been recent.

3 units CLEMENT -149 over Hernych....Hernych has only played 14 matches on grass since 2001, going 8-6 in those matches, and hasn't beaten anyone of note on the surface since 2001. Conversely, Clement has played 33 matches on grass during the same span, and defeated both Popp and Waske who are aren't too shabby on grass. I believe Clements experience and craftiness will overcome his younger opponent and this is a relatively low price to pay on him here.

GL to all

I think the sluiter match has no bet written all over it mate, flip is fade material these days

but good luck

Tommy · 06-07-05, 04:33 AM

Flip is definetely fade material most times these days, but I think in this case if your gonna bet him it mind as well be in this spot on grass.

Very nice on poopy there naught

naught33 · 06-07-05, 10:07 AM

thanks big, i thought poopy would make a strong showing here, he got through the 1st round which often for him can be trouble due to his injuries, hopefully he can play up to his potential and make a run during the grass season....c'mon clement
