A Tricky Day

25 Aug 09 P/L

The day got of to a poor start when my first bet went down.  It was a back of Nicolas Almagro against Bjorn Phau in the New Haven Tennis tournament.  I backed Almagro 20 euro @ 1.43 prematch and he won the first set 62 before losing the next 2 sets 63,75.

My next bet didn’t produce any joy either but fortuately it didn’t end in a loss.  I had 20 euro on Philipp Petzschner to beat Fredrico Gil @ 1.8.  He won the first set in a tie breaker after being up a break in the set, lost the second set after first serving for the match and then having 3 match in the tiebreaker before losing it!!!!  The final set saw Petzschner go up a break again and leading 3-2.  He was trading @ 1.2 , so I just decided to take my stake back out of the market.  He then went on to lose the next 4 games and the match.  Mental Midgets or what!!!!!!!

I then got involved in the match between Anna Chakvetadze and Sybille Bammer.  In a topsy Tursy 3 setter which chak won I layed Bammer @ 1.3 when she served for the 1st set and greened up @ 1.52 for an equal green on both players.

My last market of the day was Jeremy Chardy v Florent Serra.  I backed Chardy @ 1.4 and he won the first set in a tiebreaker.  He then went on to serve for the match and he was broken for the first time.  FFS.  It was here @ 1.19 that I took my stake back out of the market leaving a small green on Chardy and no loss on Serra.  Yep , you guessed it Serra went to take the match.

So , 3 of the 4 markets I got involved with today ,  2 of my selections touched 1.01 and lost and the other 1.08 and lost.  I made nothing on these markets, actually losing on one of them, and its long term that I want to be trading instead of trying to run to the laptop when I get a chance.  What a frustrating day , which is also a small losing one.  Oh well I will try keep the head up!!!!!

Also I may as well mention my main betting sports are Tennis, Football, Golf and American Football.

Side Note:  I currently have 3.47 euro on Elena Vesnina to win the US Open @ 1000 and 2.79 on Heath Slocum to win the golf this week @ 360 in the Barclays.  Both these bets where placed prior to this 400 euro challenge so I have basically wrote this amount of to keep things simple.
