Friendly virtual betting Competition : Monte-Carlo

[Bert]

Hello guys,

Who is keen for a new friendly competition ? After Indian Wells and Miami, this is a new opportunity to shine

Same rules : we all start with 100 virtual dollars that we can bet as we like.

Two matches today :

I will start with 10$ on Kuznetsov.

 

[britbox]

I'll go $20 on SImon.

@Denis @Carol @isabelle @Moxie @Billie @masterclass @brokenshoelace and other posters wanting to join in, You get $100 virtual money and can spend it as and when during any of the rounds.

Join in at any time, now or during the tournament.

It's pretty simple...

@Bert posts up the odds and you bet a sum.

In the above example, I have bet $20 on SImon at odss of 1.33 - if Simon wins then I get back (20x1.33) = $26.6 which means I've won $6.60 .

I am in, too late today, but starting from tomorrow...you watch yourselves.:hunting:

None of them have started yet, so not too late. Light up that sabre.

 

[Billie]

Chardy and Kuznetsov did. But since you are baiting me in BB, I'll bet $5 on Troicki.

 

[Bert]

This is starting well

Results :

@britbox = +6.6 +100 = 106.6 $ (1/1)
@Billie = -5 + 100 = 95 $ (0/1)
@Bert = -10 + 100 = 90 $ (0/1)

More to come

 

[Billie]

Great start, with a loss. I thought maybe being a dad in some 6 months would inspire Viktor...

 

[Bert]

Here the list of matches for today :

I go with 10$ on Pella, 10 $ on Carreno-Busta and 5$ on Cervantes

 

[Billie]

I'll go with $10 on Zverev, Bellucci and Bautista-Agut.

 

[Moxie]

I'll put $10 on Zverev, $5 on Cervantes and $5 on Ramos-Viñolas.

 

[britbox]

Bit late with my bets here... so not much to choose from.

$30 on Thiem.

 

[Carol]

Just in case tomorrow I don't have time to do it...

10$ to Goffin (Feli is playing awful)
5$ to Verdasco
5$ to Muzz and crossing fingers

 

[Bert]

Last Round Results :

@britbox = +3.9 +106.6 = 110.5 $ (2/2)
@Billie = +3 -10 +3.6 + 95 = 91.6 $ (2/4)
@Bert = -10 -5 + 3.2 + 90 = 78.2 $ (1/4)
@Moxie = +3 -5 -5 +100 = 93 $ (1/3)

I am not really sure if I could take a worse start... but I don't give up. Welcome aboard @Carol , will try to post odds for today soon so you can double check your bets

 

[Moxie]

Hi, Bert! I was just having a look. I'll wait for the odds, but I'm going with Carol on Goffin...Feli is not looking sharp, and he's not at his best on clay.

Next Round :

Does someone understand why Coric's odds are so high ? No chance against Kohlschreiber ?

 

[Moxie]

I'm thinking the same. Kohlscreiber is tricky, but Borna is trending. These are the moments when I think the odds-makers don't watch enough tennis. I also think GGLopez's odds are a little high, given the Fed comeback. Just because of the odds, I'll put $8 on Coric and $5 on GG Lopez. $5 on Verdasco. $3 on Chardy. I guess I'd better bet something safer: $10 each on Goffin and Tsonga. What the hell.

 

[Carol]

Bert, I keep the same bets that I said before

 

[Billie]

$10 on Goffin, and $5 each on Fabio, Delbonis and Simon.
