Tennis bets

New week three new tournaments. I have bets from two of them today.

Dubai is playing slightly slower than avg hard courts but it's a relatively minor difference so I don't think it will be much of a factor.

I'm going with Lopez @ 1.41 over Ward because Lopez is just a better player. Ward is 28 now and has not yet entered the top 100. Of course there are the late bloomers, Estrella-Burgos has made a name for him self an won his first title a few weeks ago aged 34 but as of yet I see no such signs from Ward.

64 64

Also backing Bolelli @ 1.39 over Pouille - The Italian showed what a good game he has last week and should deal with Pouille who is slightly over hyped atm. Pouille had a decent run in Auckland but since then he's been at the challenger-level he has. Bolelli is much to steady from the back court to be surprised by that.

63 63

Acapulco is also slightly slower than avg hard courts.

I'm going with Giraldo @ 1,63 who is a very decent HC player against Krajicek who is given too much credit for knocking out Karlovic at Memphis. These things happen to big servers like Karlovic if they don't fire. Giraldo can rally well and smack a few winners if needed and Krajicek is still mostly a ch-level guy.

76 61

Final bet of today is Granollers @ 1.73 over Matosevic - Matosevic did well in ousting Isner from Delray Beach but as I wrote this can happen with big servers. Matosevic's form is not great and Granny is one tough guy to play. He has a good base line game, defends well and is very good at the net.
