Jake’s Marrakech Preview: Goffin
I didn’t think I’d be here this week but David Goffin at odds-on appeals to me at Marrakech. Goffin, who won this tournament in 2022, looks a class above Moreno De Alboran who took out a potent but potentially rusty Diaz Acosta in his round … Continue readingJake’s Marrakech Preview: Goffin
Jake’s Marrakech Preview: Evans vs. Baena
Out-of-form Brit Dan Evans will look to topple the defending champion at Marrakech tonight as Roberto Carballes Baena looks to make it three-for-three against the 33-year-old. The pair played at this venue last season, with the Spaniard winning 2-6, 6-4, 6-2, before he took him … Continue readingJake’s Marrakech Preview: Evans vs. Baena
Jake’s Estoril Preview: Altmaier vs. Martinez
The relentless flow of money for Spain’s Pedro Martinez – at the ATP 250 level – does have me somewhat concerned about some concealed information, but I have to trust my guns and make a play on the German at a silly price. Although Altmaier … Continue readingJake’s Estoril Preview: Altmaier vs. Martinez
Jake’s Estoril Preview: Quarter 2
There will be dissertation from me when it comes to this bet, but I found $3.20 to be pretty big given the expected prices for the Spaniard. After surprisingly dominating Kecmanovic in conditions I didn’t think he’d enjoy, he’ll play Altmaier/Martinez then Thiem or Gasquet. … Continue readingJake’s Estoril Preview: Quarter 2
WTA Bogota – Baptiste vs Zidansek
Although her overall recent level has not been near her career best, some surroundings that Tamara Zidansek has performed well in during her career may aid her here as she takes on Hailey Baptiste in Bogota. The Bogota conditions do take some adjusting to and … Continue readingWTA Bogota – Baptiste vs Zidansek
Jake’s Estoril Preview: Rocha vs. Monfils
I am almost certain that the level Henrique Rocha produced to win Challenger Murcia two weeks ago is good enough to an ageing and rusty Gael Monfils a proper run for his money, here. While Monfils has produced some sort of resurgence on hard courts … Continue readingJake’s Estoril Preview: Rocha vs. Monfils
Jake’s Estoril Preview: Fils vs. Sousa
You could make a case that this is the biggest match of Joao Sousa’s career. I mean, when you come to the end of your professional tennis journey, that last match is always a big one. But, a lot of the time, you don’t know … Continue readingJake’s Estoril Preview: Fils vs. Sousa
Jake’s Estoril Preview: Coria vs. Van De Zandschulp
I don’t often like betting against someone who is at the bottom of their market value, but that’s what I’ll be doing in Estoril’s opening round. Botic Van De Zandschulp has had a year from hell as it honestly seems like he’s sustained a serious … Continue readingJake’s Estoril Preview: Coria vs. Van De Zandschulp
Jake’s Estoril Outright Preview
Doing my best to juggle responsibilities between tournaments but had to change the order in which I study them to make this bet at Portugal. Lorenzo Musetti looks a massive price to get the job done at Estoril after the birth of his first child … Continue readingJake’s Estoril Outright Preview
Jake’s Houston Preview: Quarter Two
Hey, guys. Sinner’s win this morning over Dimitrov allowed us to re-eclipse the +4% mark, although it’s not a figure I’m satisfied with. Given we have the luxury of betting into niche market types, the ultimate goal would be much closer to 10%. Let’s see … Continue readingJake’s Houston Preview: Quarter Two
