Whittington Andrew vs Calvin Hemery  QF, Toyota Challenger,    TIP: 2 (odd 1.50)

Calvin Hemery is better ranked player although younger. Hemery has richer indoor experience, 53 wins and 40 loses indoor while his next opponent has humble score indoor 2wins 2loses (4 appearances in total).Hemery in a great form recently (6 wins in last 7 played matches). Things going well for him in November. Good Luck

 - I also expect victory for Hemery against Whittington. Lately he plays very good and he is in a good form.

federer vs cilic, short summary: win for swiss from a set down, match played without any significance. Federer missed 5 break pt chances in the opening set, return wasn't good either (short and allowed Cilic to utilize his big forehand). Fed upped level and intensity 2nd set (hit more winners, kept own service game tidy, saved 1bp). was cooler in during the business end of the 2nd set (5-4 up Cilic choked badly - tight unforced errors). decider wasn't competitive as Federer dominated the play. Federer 33w/30ue, Cilic 36w/43ues

Swiss with smart use of chip and charge (just surprised opponent), also more effective at the net.

Bryan/Bryan against Marach/Pavic   TIP: 1 (odd 1.70)

This is must win match for Bryan brothers, if they loose they won't have theoretical chances to reach semi-finals. Not much to say about these two, their game is very mature and they will take chance to try win big tournament. with their age there won't be too many chances.  Marach/Pavic will play their first match (substitution for Dodig/Granollers), they are without chances for the next round. H2H is 1-1, Marach/Pavic took a win on clay in Stuttgart while Bryan's won in New York. Bryan brothers need a convincing win here and then to hope for positive outcome of the match Kubot/Melo vs Murray/Soares.

A. Zverev against J. Sock   TIP: 1 (odd 1.60)

chose this bet as I believe Zverev is more complete player, had more layers in his game and definitely has more consistent and powerful backhand. German played tight match vs Federer (took 2nd set), recovered from a set down to win versus Marin Cilic. Victory here will secure his place in semi-finals. Sock also with chances to get SF but not the same class player as German. His main weakness is backhand wing (insecure), runs around it to execute with forehand. Match can be close and few shots to decide but still my thoughts are with Zverev.

I have just finished watching Dimitrov vs Goffin, few sentences about it: Grigor breezed through it, 1st set was one-way traffic (Grigor deadly accurate while opponent looked bit jaded). Things tighter during the 2nd set, Goffin had two half chances but failed to capitalize on return game. Overall Dimitrov looked fresher and more active of the two players. Bulgarian came in more frequently (finish point off at the net). Goffin with numerous unforced errors (28) combined with just 8 winners. main struggled was behind his 2nd serve (20% pts won------below top ten played stats). Dimitrov 18winners/11unforced errors.

What an anticlimax, I thought Goffin (after have beaten Nadal) would go further on his momentum, but today he was nowhere. Dimitrov totally blow away Goffin. Like you say, too many unforced errors by Goffin also. Hopefully Goffin quickly forgets this match so he can focus on his important third match against Thiem

@Tavarez: what are your thoughts about the match of tonight of nadal versus goffin?
Being Belgium, I am a fan of Goffin and he may have a chance as we don't know if Nadal if fully healed from his injured knee.

Hm, to be honest I am unwilling to predict that match. Nadal stated that he is ready for the match but his knees caused him so much trouble last 3-4 year that nobody can be sure about his physical state. Goffin must push this into bruising contest, always to ask one more ball and protract rallies. Rafa has more pacy ground strokes (avg. speed).

Wow, what a brilliant match of Goffin! Never thought he could win, but he did it. He is the first male Belgium tennis player who is in the Masters and who has beaten the number 1 seet. But, fair enough, if Nadal would have been totally fit, it would have been another match.

Cilic just has problems with his head. I am from Croatia and I used to get mighty pissed with his performances but I learned to expect breakdowns vs. top players and managed to earn few bucks on him. That way it is easier to watch his matches.

But this year has been a little strange for men's tennis due to all injuries. And that is why we have Cilic as 5th player in the world and he has only one tournament win this whole season and that's from ATP 250 series. Ok he was solid on some big tournaments and that got him points, but his only exceptional result this year IMHO is wimbeldon final.

It was another good bet with positive outcome, Cilic vs Sock easily over 9,5 1st set.  Smiley

match observation: both played lot matches this year and they looked worn out there. Cilic still better player in my eyes (more quality on backhand) but lost momentum twice in the final set. squandered 3-0up in the decider, then mini break in the tie-break (man is a choker, no mental strength in tricky points). Sock ended up with tidier win-ue ratio (forehand was blazing last few games of the match), bh shaky but hit one accurate down the line in the tie-break.

additional info: LONDON: The Court Pace Index is currently showing a medium fast 41.9 which is slightly quicker than last year.

Marin Cilic vs Jack Sock  TIP: over 9,5 games * 1st set*  avg odd around 1.5

Cilic was poor in previous match vs Zeverev, let a lead to slip through his fingers in the final set. (He is rock solid indoor player, but mentally weak..... lost plenty important ones in his career). Sock surprised me with decent play vs Federer. Hits his forehand with lot spin (reached decent form in Paris- obviously will continue it here). These two met twice, Sock grabbed both wins. Now I expect tough/tight 1st set since they both lost their opening matches.

That should pass, I will also consider over games for whole match because I see it as a 3 setter.

I think I will tip for possible surprise in the other match. Federer is not 100% IMHO @4,0 for small stake. On my main ticket I will take Zverev not to lose with more then 4 games difference (contra hendi 4,5) @ 1,6.

Fed didn't impress in the opening match (his bh was torn by Sock's forehand topspin), but his 1st serve was mighty (clip the line). haven't seen Zverev's opening match but read somewhere that it was sluggish from both. I believe young German can take set at least, also tie-break to be seen. good luck with your ticket.

Its not a bad pick. I think that The first set score will be 6-4 or 6-3 to Cilic.  Depends on who start to serve.  Lets hope it will be Sock

what an ugly match it was, Thiem versus Dimitrov. Both men struggled to produce their best tennis but in the end it was Bulgarian who played with greater versatility and bit more aggression in key points of the the third set. Both finished with negative winner-unforced error ratios, 1st serve numbers also not good. However the handicap and outcome matched the bet I mentioned day ago... Wink

As expected Pablo Cuevas claimed an easy/routine win against Nicolas Kicker, straight sets win for him. So he is about to face Gastao Elias in the finals. They met twice (h2h 1-1)..... But again I believe in Cuevas. on the other hand Gastao Elias had medical time out in semi-final win over Domingues, so his physical preparation is is question here. TIP: Cuevas to win the title (odd 1.35) good luck everybody

additional info: Elias took a MTO at the end of the opening set of his 7/5 6/3 win over compatriot Joao Domingues at the Montevideo challenger today. Elias, who won 6 games in a row to take the opening set after being down 1-5, received some treatment on what looked like his back, side and legs.  This is the reason why Cuevas is closer to win. Wink

Just a note for anybody hunting forfeits. Wbet7 has a policy to look at forfeits as settled bet. Ie. If Elias drop out they would consider bet valid and payout. Ok in this case it is small odds so maybe not worth it but there is good opportunities to be had when you suspect that heavy favorite is injured.
Hadn't heard about this site till now , I just checked it and the design is very simple but it accepts Etherum so I wanna try it , are you sure they are legit? and also keep up the good work Smiley

They have a great interface and from what i am seeing i think if they are legit then they will be worth trying because ethereum has lesser transaction fees and confirms faster and so it makes it altcoin friendly. I also like the forfeits policy.

Federer get through a stern test today. Never really outclassed Sock. Swiss was untouchable in own service games (90% pts won behind first serve, never faced a break point threat). Fed was accurate with fh (nail everything landing shortish). but return of serve was weak (drop short and allow Sock to express himself with favorite forehand). Federer wasted 5 break point opportunities in the 2nd set (in three separate service games). took the 2nd set in the breaker, was helped by Sock who threw fatal double fault.

At his age i will still credit him for that performance he puts up every now and then, I so wish he wins the ATP tournament in order to end the year on high because he really deserves it and has fought all throughout the year for this performance.
