    Shumenov vs. Campillo II is comming up guys....Shumenov has even odds, and Campillo is just a slight favorite.

    Might be worth a stab on the Khazakstani warrior :p

    Anybody betting on Murray vs Nadal?

    Murray has been playing really well, but stylewise he's all wrong IMO.

    Del Potro lost, looked like he was gonna win but he ran out of steam.

    I did a double of Roddick/Davydenko so we'll see how Davydenko gets on tonight.

    Murray/Nadal are evens at the bookies, they can't split them.

    took your tip with Davydenko and added Charton (some decent lower leauge English team) in a parlay for 15 bucks.

    :lol: andyZOR

    I had losing bets on Gamboa, Everton and a Valencia/Man City double.

    Wins on Bolton/Barcelona double, Getafe/Osasuna/Villarreal/R Madrid 4 fold :)D10-1 shot) and waiting on Charlton from a double with Barcelona.

    If Charlton win I'll be square for the weekend.

    Didn't put anything on Davydenko in the end because I couldn't find anything I really liked to pair it with :mad:

    I'm not touching Nadal/Murray. Nadal usually has his number but the way Murray played in his last game it would be silly to back against him.

    Had a couple of small bets on the first fixtures of the African Nations but then left well alone after Ivory Coast were held by Burkina Faso and someother stupid result came in!

    Matthew Stevens vs Barry Pinches

    In running...

    Have been watching this on BBC Wales. Stevens started slowly but somehow managed to draw level at 2-2 at the interval. Stevens playing well after the break though and starting to look confident whereas Pinches has lost his cool and patience.

    Stevens behind in 6th frame but I think he can win it and the next. He has the run of the balls.

    5-2 prediction.

    Stevens throws frame away by missing **** easy blue. Astounding miss.

    3-3 but I'd still fancy Stevens here... Pinches has been scrappy and lucky.

    1-2 Stevens in running is very good value.

    Next round...

    Roddick over Cilic 4/6 (I like Roddick's consistency and big game nerve to win this, probably a few tie breaks in there, Cilic is a big man and had a long gruelling game against DP)

    Nadal over Murray 11/10 (I'll be happy to be proven wrong but Nadal is the value on the big occasion and has a good record and style against Murray as he's more aggressive in the baseline exchanges without losing consistency)

    Federer over Davydenko 4/9 (this is great value in my opinion, Davydenko is on a great run and beat Fed last time out but Davydenko will really need to step it up from his match with Verdasco where he was error prone...Fed glided through to this point)

    *Possible upset* Tsonga over Djokovic 27/14 (Tsonga is playing really nicely and on any particular day can beat anybody he has such an aggressive game. Just on value and a feeling...)

    Djokovic seems to be playing well though and has glided through almost unnoticed (apart from a blip in the first set against that Swiss guy). Djokovic has previous form in Australia too. I don't know, seems unlikely to me.
