^^ It will be a great match vs Alcaraz and Tsitsipas. It could even go to 3 sets, Alcaraz though is the favorite at ML.

But I will be going for Alcaraz by handicap -2.5 (1.83). I think he can easily covered this score. Although Tsitsipas will make it close, but with the way Alcaraz is playing this year, it's hard to stop him at this point.

I was hoping Tsitsipas will be favorite and that I will be able to place bet on Alcaraz +2.5 at that odds. This way it is no bet for me in handicaps. I am keeping it simple with ML today.
Alcaraz ML @1.55 - medium stake
Kyrgios ML @1.50 - high stake
Fritz ML@ 1.6 - high stake
Combined @3.72 - low stake, good enough for me

Kyrgios is down at the moment, 0:1, and break for Sinner in second set
have you watch Kecmanovic on this tournament, I know that Fritz won Indian Wells, haven't watch matches on both tournaments, but local press is saying that Kecmanovic is playing very well, not sure that Fritz will get that easily, especially since he is tired, not usual for him to play three weeks in a row, ten matches

Alcaraz should win, I can see him as no.1 prior to Medvedev, and speaking on him, he is also down by a break in first set

Good win by Alcaraz, as expected, Tsitsipas is already fading, not surprised that his standing will go down this year.

I want to shift my attention on the ladies now:

Badosa vs Pegula - I will pick Badosa -2.5.

I think Badosa can have this one in the bag in 2 sets.

Kyrgios down....and out

After losing the tie break in the first set he totally lost his emotions,
and it was game over, I had him to win but didnt bother with the
handicap on sinner. I tried to cash out right after the first set but
the markets had closed on this ^{rightly so}
~snip

it is pretty usual in tennis, have you watched Medvedev against Broonsky, it was 3:5 and 15:30 for Broonsky in first set, and he lost important point for 15:40, instead it was 30:30, and he was completely down
after that point, he won just one game, match finished 7:5, 6:1 for Medvedev, and he actually did not play any better in second set, compared to first

Alcaraz is a good pick against Kecmanovic

Looks like Tsitsipas is doing good in the first set, having break Alcaraz already and it's going to be close but I think Tsitsipas will win the first set with at least a 2 point advantage.

And for Alcaraz to obviously win, he has to comeback and win the last 2 sets if he wanted to stay in the tournament and to cover the spread.

Edit: Alcaraz coming back and break Tsitsipas in the 9th game, he is serving now to try to even it out 5-5.

Edit2: Alcaraz comes back from a 5-3 down to win the first set 7-5.

Both of our original posts can be described as "comments that did not age well". Alcaraz the only one that won from my selection and he was the smallest bet unfortunately.

Looks like it was good battle against Tsitsipas, too bad match was during the night for me so I could not watch it.

I just cannot believe he lost it after losing the tie break, its as if his
belief evaporated r as a commentator said before its as if thats his
saety net, blaming other factors, the court, the chair umpire or whatever,
he believes when he is losing the match is lost.

He received firstly a point penalty, then a game penalty and that was
enough for him to secure his loss without his actual tenis being called
into question.

I wont be betting on him again, waaay to risky.

So just an usual Kyrgios breakdown, when everybody is guilty after he looses a couple of 50:50 points, classic

I lost my bet but I can't be mad at him, it is just what he is. Top player when things go his way and very prone to loosing his cool when the opposite happens.

Did not consider fatigue factor for Fritz. I watched him a lot in IW and he looked really good. Made my bet expecting he will keep that level of performance. Never liked Kecmanovic much, he is just one of those players that are sort of meh. Nothing to really set him apart, like some great shot or counter play. I think he is strong mentally though and that gets you a long way in tennis.

Medvedev the favorite is not doing well this year

Quote from: Rabi3 on March 28, 2022, 06:39:07 PM

I just know that Medvedev is out of it, he's not as good as he was

I'm not sure what makes you think that, I have the opposite opinion. I think Medvedev has been great this year. He got to the AO final and lost a 5-setter to an inspired Nadal, and got knocked out of another tournament by Nadal again after that. His only real surprise defeat was Indian Wells against Monfils, other than that he's been winning every match, and has been better than anyone in the world except Nadal.

Who do you guys think is going to win Miami's tournament ? I would love to hear what you guys think, so far I'm guessing it could be Alexander Zverev, the odds are pretty high @5, Medvedev the favorite is not doing well this year and I don't think he's going to win this, also Zverev did not win a big one in a long time, this could be his chance to do so, if his serve is on point it is hard for him to lose.

Not really confident but my money would go towards Kyrgios or Alcaraz, probably not gonna happen but both of them can take it and odds are really good. I never make bets on outright winners since there is much more money to be made if you back them in every single match. Those are the guys I am keeping my eye on and betting every round. I have Alcaraz to win 2:0 against Cilic today @1.75.

I can't say that I'm really confident but it's his time to shine, Alcaraz is still young he has to face a lot of good players before reaching Zverev, I just know that Medvedev is out of it, he's not as good as he was, so I am not counting the favorite to win it, and since we've seen fritz win a big atp win lately I don't expect to see another big surprise like kyrgios, Alcaraz can make it though I can't deny that, but I feel like Zverev won big tournaments before and he can do it again here for sure.

Zverev, Tsitsipas, Medvedev are my favs for the tournament and I think its highly likely that one of the 3 wins it. Alcaraz has been a beast so far and I can only imagine how strong of a contender and if he manages to stay injury free. He has the game to stay in the world top 10 for a decade at least. It is Alcaraz vs Tsitsipas next which is going to be a fun watch.

Well he despatched Cilic in the two sets anyway!

Yea, so far I'm impressed with Kyrgios, If he can continue with his professional attitude
and super form he can go to the final for sure, Alcaraz is definitely a contender too,
neither players have dropped any sets so far. I havent seen either Alcaraz, Medvedev
or Zverev play yet.

The highlight for tomorrow has to be Kyrgios v Sinner, Nick is favourite @ 1.5 against
Jannik being 2.55. Rollbit are giving the following handicap on Jannik +5.5 @ 1.19,
+5 @ 1.22 and +4.5 @ 1.37. I would like to do Kyrgios to win and Sinner +4.5.

Just watching it now, I have my bet on Kyrgios. I heard today that this is Nick's
most successful tournament, he has reached the semi-final's twice.

The match seems a little subdued ATM, both players are keeping things under
control, Nick is very business like, and Fabio is looking his usual lethargic self.

Kyrgios has broken Fognini twice so far in the first set, serving for it now.

Nick Kyrgios was once one of the greatest talents according to the expert in the tennis world. Wasn't it in the top 10 for a while? He is not that old at all, but seems to have never really reached the top of the world. What could be the cause of that? He always walked the track very casually and uninterested, as if he didn't care that much. But in his best days he could beat anyone. Still a good player, but not the player from years ago. Fogninia has also been active on the tennis circuit for a really long time.

One of the unexpected results today for me was shapovalov losing against Lloyd haris and with 2 0 score especially after haris poor performance recently, today shapovalov was really bad 6 double faults in this game, even so congrats for haris even if i don't think he will make it far.

That is just the way Shapovalov plays with taking a lot of risk on second serve, often even serving it as it was first. It is great when it works but looks a bit stupid when it does not go his way like today. Did not watch the match but I saw performances like that from Shapovalov many times in the past so I can imagine

yeah, easy win for Kyrgios and he can make something on this tournament
on the other hand, Sinner is playing Busta tonight, and odds for a win are fair enough to give him a try

without old guards, Medvedev is playing much better, it seems that seeing top ones in a draw makes him less good

He finished the job easy in the end and his serve was never under pressure, I don't think Fognini had a single break ball in this match. Even though I said I will not bet on him I placed a nice multi with him on it. There just wasn't anything else to play on. A bit sad I did not take Badosa 2:0 as well since I already had it on the ticket and then changed it to ML.

Now I just have to wait for Sportsbet to grade it so I can play another night ticket. I am looking at handicaps on McDonald +5.5, Kudla +4.5 and Monfils -3.5.
