Alize Cornet @ 1.6 H2H v Kirsten Flipkens looks quite good value, as does Polona Hercog at 1.5

Also, quite like the outside bet of Giraldo at 2.34 v Paul-Henri Mathieu

Got any chips on the opening round @Bert?

Cornet has only won one match since Australian Open and her break because her back's issues. She is really struggling. I won't follow you on this one.

I like Raonic to win in 3 sets @ 1.4 as Tipsarevic is very far from his best.
I may put a coin on Pouille to win in 3 sets @ 2.15 for the same reasons, Benneteau hasn't played a lot this season... and Pouille is on a good momentum.

Cornet, Hercog both won in straights. Also took Caroline Garcia and she won.

Waiting on Giraldo and hoping for a clean sweep.

Today...
Delbonis H2H W at 1.62
also like Berankis at 2.34, although I think it's a 50/50 match with Mahut.
Gone small with Almagro (2.84) v Kohlschrieber.

Yes me too. Tight match. I was very lucky with my Djoko-Lu bet... 24 games :)

Today I took Kyrgios to win in 3 sets @ 1.37 and Paire to win in 3 or 4 sets @ 1.8

Not liking too much out there today @Bert - I've done two small bets - one on Cornet (1.44), and an even smaller outside bet on Falconi (3.06).

Hopefully live bets saved me on Paire Gabashvili yesterday... everytime I promise myself not to bet ever again on Paire but do not manage to stick to it...

Today I took Bacsinszky @ 1.51, Tsonga to win 3-0 @ 1.87, Nadal to go more than 25 games @ 2.07, Djokovic to gomore than 23 games @ 1.43... objective 3/4... 2/4 can be ok

Paire is so random!! I'm imagining you watching with head in hands... I've still waiting on two womens matches (Cornet and Falconi) but I might check Cibulkova.

I think Gasquet's pretty good value, although it's close match to call. if I had to call it... I reckon Nick wins the match... but the odds are tempting on RG.

I avoid betting on Troicki - it's a crapshoot... the guy is more random than Paire... but yeah, the odds are kind.

Any idea on Gasquet - Kyrgios tomorrow ? Troicki's odds are so high as well, I know I never won against Simon but 3.25 is a bit too much :)
Simon is also 6-0 v Troicki. Stranger things have happened but I'd rather go with Zverev at 3.55 against Thiem or Coric @ 3.20 v Bautista Agut if I was picking an outsider... but I'll avoid all three of these... I've actually bet on Simon at 1.34 for the win.

I took Kyrgios to win vs. Gasquet @ 1.76 / Wawrinka to win in 4 @ 3.6
Safarova to win 2-0 vs. Stosur @ 2.3
Radwanska to win 2-0 vs. Strycova @ 1.87

Objective 2/4 or more :)

I like those mate. Not too sure about Stan in 4, but the others look good value. I'm just a bit hesitant about predicting sets.

Yes this is a bit risky but gives better odds. I feel this is too risky to pick the winner only with such short odds. Cuevas Berdych should be an exciting one to bet on tomorrow or Williams COrnet

Troicki would have returned some decent coin. Surprised he beat Simon... but even more surprised it was in straights.
