The tournament in Lyon looks to be a good day to bet for these two competitors as they were in the quarterfinals.
Paire looked good going into the second set only because shapaolov was struggling and his backhand winners were going long. But benoit had the home fan crowd rooting for him and it helped him going into the tiebreak to win the match.
The other match was kind of strange since Basilashvili was not the favorite to win according to the oddmakers and even rose to 2.18 just before the match started an hour ago. But he is seeded number 1 in this atp 250 tournament. Undecided

I didnt like tsonga going into this match even though he is a french men with home court advantage and the crowd rooting for him.
I just knew one of them out of the two were going to lose and went with wilfred. Grin

The combined odd was really good and congrats to you win. Imagine if 0.05 was Bitcoin instead of ETH :-P

I was about to ask where's @Royse777 at, we've been missing you here mate. Grin

. I'm glad you're back again with your inputs.

I was busy with IPL gambling and was also waiting for GS to start. Now that GS is not far from us, you guys will see me a lot here :-)
Other day I lost some money on Djokovic against Nadal. :-P

Looks like there are a lot of qualifying matches ongoing for the French Open. Not much of a interest though.

@vella85 - based on the performance of Thiem on Italian open, what do you think of his chances here? You got me thinking here, perhaps Thiem could be a live underdog here. Although Nadal really looks dominant against Djokovic. I'm seeing that Thiem, might pull some upsets. Haven't check the odds though, but if it looks enticing then I might throw some money on him. Grin

I already put a bet on Thiem a few weeks ago when he was paying $11 to win the French Open, he then shorted into $6 after winning the Barcelona Open and that's where the current odds have stayed. What do you think about Tsitsipas of winning as he is at $19 to win which is very good odds for a player that has shown that he can match it with the top players. The only thing that worries me with him is that when he gets to the finals, he doesn't have the mentality to win but maybe that will change in the French Open. I'm actually thinking of having $20 on him at these odds.

Oh that's my boy, Tsitsipas Grin

, I will definitely put some money on that kid. He needed a break out tournament and this could be it. (I'm a little bias obviously).

I will definitely look at Thiem, yes, $20 is not that bad assuming that the odds are that good as well. Hope though that this young prospect would wilted out of the pressure of big events such as French Open and show that they can handle it like a veteran.

Yes he is your boy as you have been following him for a while now and thanks to you, I was made aware of him as I never heard of him before so I always been tracking his progress in the past year. I actually put a bet on him as the odds are to hard to resist, so I put $50 on him at odds of $20 to get back $1k. If Tsitsipas can handle the pressure in big matches like the semi or quarter finals, then he can go onto winning the French Open. Lets see how the young talent goes this year.

That's good mate, he was really on my radar since last year, specially when he had this giant runs beating alot of top ten players. I know that some day this kid will have a break out run in the Grand Slams so I hope he just it this time in the French Open, at very big stage to really set your arrival in the tennis circle.

I put some wagered on the games earlier but they were in later stages of the matches so they all were easy. Problem with the french open games are they are early in the morning and end at about midday for me. Cheesy

Tsitsipas has become is one of my favorite players recently and that's because he's playing a great tennis at the age of only 20 and I personally think he is on his way of becoming a number 1 in the future if he continues the same. He had some issues when playing against top players but it seems that he got more used to it recently as he beat Nadal and Federer this year. Not sure he's yet mentally prepared to win a tournament like French Open but I hope he will at least have a good run and not choke early.

Anybody think Andy murray will get anywhere in his last appearance at Roland garros? He announced his retirement last year and he wanted to end his career at one of these big tournaments. I think he wanted to end at wimbeldon but from the news this morning he is looking to play doubles so this one could be his last singles match.

Djokovic must of been too tired to meet an already rested nadal because as mentioned before he played a grueling three set match with del porto into the early morning hours then about 16 hours later faced schwartzman which should of been easy for him. But he struggled and it showed in the second set with it going into a tiebreaker. But he managed to close out the match with a win. But it took a toll on him and you can see it after the match.
Good for nadal on winning a finals in italy because he deserves it after losing in spain for both the barcelona and madrid open. On his home court and in a stadium named after him. Embarrassed

Yes I agree that Djokovic looked tired and wasn't at his best when facing Nadal, rain delays in tournaments can take their toll on players who unfortunately need to play matches in a row to make up for the time lost from the rain delays. Well at least all the players now have a few days to rest up ready for the French Open, my money is already on Thiem as an outsider however I do think it will be out of Nadal and Djokovic.

Well we were expecting a great match between Djokovic and Nadal but it wasn't what we expected. Nadal dominated Djokovic in this match to win his 9th Italian Open title. Nadal said in an interview that he feels fit and healthy and is ready to defend his French Open title as he will be gunning for a record extending 12th title at the French Open starting in just under a week from now.

Oh well, I'm betting that Djokovic could win the match, however, Nadal was too much. But yes, it could have been the last 2 games wherein Djokovic was stretch to three sets and it caught up with him in this match. 6-0 in the first set? Just wow. At this point, I don't know who can stop Nadal at clay, he looks very healthy and for sure he will be the favorites to win another French Open. The question is, who will be the runner up?

One of the best server against the most cleaver tennis player.

Who do you consider as the best server and who as the most clever tennis player? Neither Djoko or Nadal fit either category for me, especially as the best server. They are nowhere near best servers like Karlovic, Isner, Kyrgios.... And for most clever tennis player for me will always be Andy Murray. For me they are the most complete tennis players today. They have all the shots at extremely high level (including serve) but nowhere near the "best in game level". Their consistency and all around play is what makes them best in the world.

Anyway this performance from Nadal in 1st and 3rd set today was on level of his best performances ever. Djokovic played some really good tennis in those sets and lost them easily. We saw some great tennis and Nadal sure sent a message to show who is number one favorite in Roland Garros.

Ok, so we are looking for a dream match for the Italian Open. Djovokic lately has been hot and on a winning streak, but this is Nadal's specialty so it's hard to predict who is going to win the tournament. Nadal has an easy route though and I'm sure he has enough gas on his tank, while Djokovic has been extended in his last 2 matches to three sets. But I will go with Djovokic here, he has all the momentum and those 3 setter match is good for him in end. I'm expecting a back and forth high level of tennis but I'm leaning towards Djokovic to prevail. Grin

I lost some money in the Djovokic match lol. It was Djovokic to win the 2nd set but unfortunately he lost it. It was a tight set.

Anyway, as I expected it's Djovokic vs Nadal now. One of the best server against the most cleaver tennis player. I will take Djovokic's side but Nadal is not a man who will give up.

You can not blame these players for not winning in straight sets and easily against lower ranked players. So many factors can be into play. Such as injury or even fatigue. But yes they should win when it comes looking it at paper but it is sports after all and anything can happen. Just look at djokovic.
He should of had an easy match today against diego schwartzman but he had difficulty in the second set and was behind 2 to 5 but in novak fashion came back to force a tiebreaker but lost. He didnt have one ace until the final frame and all his drop shots were not falling. He played a tough and long match against del porto just the night before so he must of been quite tired because it ended early into the morning.
But he came to prevail winning 6 - 3 just as the first set ended.
It will be hard to see who will win the match tomorrow since nadal has been resting while djokovic had another long match including a tiebreaker to drag it out.
