STAN WAWRINKA'S season so far has been a stinker and the former Australian Open winner hopes to stop the slump at the Rome Masters.

The world No.9 faces Juan Monaco in round two on Tuesday and is 2-5 at Paddy Power to progress against the Argentinian, who's available at 9-4 at Coral.

Also in action is world No.1 Novak Djokovic, on a 17-match winning streak, who begins his title defence against Nicolas Almagro and other eye-catching Tuesday action includes Feliciano Lopez versus rising Aussie star Nick Kyrgios and Jelena Jakovic's battle with Camila Giorgi.

In the Giro d'Italia cycling Michael Matthews is 6-1 favourite at bet365 to win stage four and 5-6 at bet365 to win his match-up against Fabio Feline, who is priced up at 6-5 by Paddy Power.

In the NBA Conference semi-finals it's Chicago Bulls at the Cleveland Cavs and LA Clippers travel to Houston Rockets.

Good luck with your bets and let's hear your sporting tips and thoughts.

    One shot out from a double payout!

    Half stakes on this

    Wizards/Hawks Over 195.6
    Grizzlies/Warriors Over 186.5

    9/10 @ 365 **LOSE BY 2 POINTS**

    Covered @ 17/2 (Under 187.5 so can’t complain, would have been nice with one more shot made)

    Porter Over 12.5 Points @ 5/6 @ PP **LOSE**

    Mike Conley Over 4.5 Assists @ 10/11 **WIN**

    In the plus thanks to Picksix on the night with the Wizards 1st half points. Tough ones again tomorrow!

  3. Picksix 9 years ago

    Cycling: Giro d’Italia stage 4

    Match-ups, winner in capitals:

    BOLE v Paolini
    TIRALONGO v Lagutin
    Double @ 2.35 with unibet or 888sport (no multiples possible at WH or 365)

  5. Mr. Orange 9 years ago

    Reddevils> what do you think about Felline today? I think he should be able to get another top 3 finish today with Gilbert and Matthews (or Gerrans) taking the other places.

  6. thereddevils 9 years ago

    Cycling: Giro d’Italia stage 4

    Anything can happen here, a late break may succeed. No bets for me today.
    Betancur @101, what do you think Mr.Orange? Haha.

  7. Hunter 9 years ago

    POINTS SPREAD

    Washington Wizards +4.5 @ 10/11 Coral **LOST**

    NBA PLAYER PROPS

    Paul Millsap (Hawks) over 15.5 points @ 10/11 William Hill **WON**

    Kyle Korver (Hawks) Under 13.5 points @ Skybet **WON**

    Good luck tonight guys!

    Getting trickier to call these! Didn’t feel overly confident on my NBA picks the last few times, thinking I might just stick to player props for a bit of interest and hope my 2/1 series bet on the Bulls lands.

  8. Hunter 9 years ago

    TENNIS DOUBLE

    JOHN ISNER Vs Leonardo Mayer (Wednesday)

    NICK KYRGIOS Vs Feliciano Lopez (11:30am)

    (Winners in uppercase)

    Win Double: 23/10 @ Paddy Power

  9. Ernie 9 years ago

    Anyone got any other tennis tips today?

  10. Mr. Orange 9 years ago

    Reddevils> Haha Betancur! You never know. I think he gave up his MacDonalds diet of last season.

    I think Matthews will win it again. With Fell-ine and Gilbert being close. I think they will hold it together and try to defend the pink jersey with so many guys being a couple of seconds away.

    I already suggested Fell-ine top 3 @ 3.00. But the message is stuck in moderation…

  11. RPC 9 years ago

    Put all my faith in Curry last night and it paid off, was also on Conley over 5.5 assists and Hawks/Warriors ML. Just had a feeling the Warriors would strike back. Going to revert back to you guys tips now though, don’t generally do well backing my feelings.

  12. Shotty 9 years ago

    Looking for a safe tennis bet to make a double with Kyrgios, any ideas on who I could choose today?

  13. huggybear 9 years ago

    grizzlies ht +2 ( STUFFED )

    grizzlies ft +4 ( STUFFED )

    grizzlies ht/ft 14/5 ( STUFFED )

    grizzlies race to 20 11/10 ( STUFFED )

    gsw under 100 5/6 ( lost by 1 )

    grizzlies over 96 20/23 ( lost by 12 )

    hawks over 198 WINNER !!!

    randolph over 18.5 points ( LOST BY 6 )

    klay under 21.5 points WINNER !!!

    but then

    warriors -14.5 in this mood ( inplay )

    I’m going HUGE at that . huge

    101 – 84 WINNER !!! SO UP BIG TIME ON THE NIGHT , RISKY…

  14. Felix 9 years ago

    Will be keeping an eye on Bouchard vs Diyas. Bouchard has lost her last 6 matches.

  15. Iddy 9 years ago

    Shotty – adding Wawrinka / Bautista Agut or Caroline Garcia should work.
    The above 3 make a nice Evens bet.

  16. Felix 9 years ago

    wawrinka also beat Monaco pretty comfortably when they last played in Monte Carlo.

  17. Shotty 9 years ago

    Thanks for the advice guys decided to go with Wawrinka deciding factor was as you say he beat his opponent comfortably last time they played!

    Kyrgios and Wawrinka double just over evens @SkyBet

  18. De Niro 9 years ago

    Klizan 2-0 v Dolgopolov 11/2 Boylesports

    Lopez 2-0 v Kyrgios 4/1 Ladbrokes

  19. thereddevils 9 years ago

    I really don’t know Mr.Orange. They (Orica) don’t really have the team to control the race. But Contador’s men will probably do the same as yesterday.. So the break could not make it. The difference is that the climb is closer to the finish now, I can see some riders attack and maybe hold the lead (a few seconds is enough). It’s really hard to predict imo.

  20. Dazzler 9 years ago

    White Sox @ Brewers
    Over 6.5 runs @ 1.41

    Marlins @ Dodgers
    Dodgers @ 1.43

    Double @ 2.03 *won*

    Yankees @ Rays
    Rays @ 1.83 *lost*

  21. mlac 9 years ago

    thinking ill be on warriors spread tonight

    curry surely wont be cold AGAIN will he !?

    Warriors -4 evens

    *won*

    after reading the comments on here i was so close to lumping on grizzlies +5, luckily i fell asleep :D

  22. Iddy 9 years ago

    U Radwanska seems over priced at 5/2 v Begu.
    Just about to start – going for a small stake.
    Radwanska has beat Lucic and Hradecka in qualies so far. Both were in good form so she must be playing ok.

  23. thereddevils 9 years ago

    Mr. Orange, I’m pretty sure now someone in the break will win. I knew it! I can bet in about one hour. Hmmm. Visconti is a pretty good candidate for the victory. Too bad Betancur is still in the peloton!

  24. Picksix 9 years ago

    Wel done Jordan, Huggy (brave man) and hunter some good props there

    Well done to the guys who backed Golden state too

    Think I might have a night off looking at the games on later (will probably not), they seem tough to call Bulls with a 5.5 point start not a bad bet it will probably drift out to about 6/6.5 aswell as there’s money on the Cavs , the clippers own the rockets but think I’m gona leave that one too

  25. De Niro 9 years ago

    Klizan 2-0 v Dolgopolov 11/2 Boylesports LOST !!!

    Lopez 2-0 v Kyrgios 4/1 Ladbrokes WON !!! ;-)

  26. Felix 9 years ago

    Kyrgios couldn’t really handle the slow clay. Pretty bad to lose to lopez in straights still, seeing he’s terrible on the surface.

  27. mint 9 years ago

    Bouchard playin tomorrow

    She’s playing honk well worth a punt against!

  28. Juan 9 years ago

    Huggy – it used to be all about level stakes but now its 9 bets on the one match – 7 of which lost – then in-play at 4am or whatever it was you go huge stakes. Can we go back to just picking a single or a double please?!?!

    • huggybear 9 years ago

      Juan , your`e right , but the 7 bets weren`t huge , and inplay gsw were never surrendering that lead and seen a chance to end up in profit.

      i know no-one is daft enough to go 7 bets on 1 game , it can work well often doesn`t.

      back to 2 picks tonight , totals only.

      probably gonna put amounts to bets , so people can see what i win or LOSE !!

      SORRY MATE

  29. Mr. Orange 9 years ago

    OMG what a stage Redevils. I just put some on Visconti to win @ 7.00 with WH

  30. thereddevils 9 years ago

    Just got home. What is happening, wow.
    I will just enjoy it and no bet for me. Maybe Astana will get them!

  31. Iddy 9 years ago

    Radwanska lost 2-1. Should have cashed out at 1-0 as she capitulated after that.
    My other bet tonight is a big risk of Donati covering the +6.5 handicap v Berdych. The price is 6/5 for this one.

  32. Felix 9 years ago

    I’ve learnt to always cash out with tennis, there’s just so many variables

  33. Felix 9 years ago

    Mint – Bouchard lost her last match after winning the first set 6-0. One to keep an eye on.

  34. Hunter 9 years ago

    TENNIS DOUBLE

    JOHN ISNER Vs Leonardo Mayer (Wednesday)

    NICK KYRGIOS Vs Feliciano Lopez (11:30am)

    (Winners in uppercase)

    Win Double: 23/10 @ Paddy Power *LOST*

    Couple of surprises today! Well done De Niro for picking out Lopez in straight sets.

    Nothing much else for me tonight, maybe a few props later but will try my luck on the bet365 offer with pre match and inplay going on Barca win @ 13/8. Think this price is too big to pass up.

    • De Niro 9 years ago

      cheers Hunter :-)

  35. Mr. Orange 9 years ago

    Cycling: Giro d’Italia stage 4

    Match-ups, winner in capitals:

    BOLE v Paolini
    TIRALONGO v Lagutin
    Double @ 2.35 LOST :(

    No luck in the end as Paolini beat Bole. All were nowhere near the front as this stage was a big chaos, but one of the best stages I have seen in years. Hope the rest of the week will be more straight forward.

  36. Picksix 9 years ago

    Nothing standing out for me so I’m going half stakes on these totals

    Bulls vs Cavs over 183
    Clippers vs rockets over 210

    Double @ 9/10 (half stakes)

  37. De Niro 9 years ago

    18-30 Rome

    Jankovic v Giorgi

    Jankovic 2-0 2/1 Coral(I would’nt take less than 2/1)

  38. Jordan 9 years ago

    Cleveland Cavaliers Over 49.5 1st Half Points @ 10/11 @ WillHill

  39. tomekplnd 9 years ago

    I am having a literal shocker today, bet on over 22.5 games in the Tsonga – Querrey match, first set finishes in 7-6, thinking great. Second set 6-0 to Tsonga…

  40. mulac 9 years ago

    With Noah out I think I will be on Cavs spread tonight, thoughts nba peeps?

  41. mulac 9 years ago

    Cavs ml
    clippers +4.5

    Evens…seems decent

    Will decide when I get home from work tho / see what Jordan et al are on

  42. Jordan 9 years ago

    I’ve already posted what I’m on mulac mate!

  43. Picksix 9 years ago

    Any of u guys think the rockets have a chance tonight ? The clippers have owned them but I don’t know why I have a feelin the rockets might win

  44. Jordan 9 years ago

    Picksix, honest opinion. No mate. Hack a Jordan did not work last time and if they don’t do it tonight they’ll lose by even more.

    Smaller Bet

    Cavs/Clippers ML Double @ 6/4 @ WillHill (Bet Bundle)

  45. Picksix 9 years ago

    Jordan I get these weird gut feeling sometimes on games it’s usually a sign for me to avoid that game so not gonna touch it and stick with the totals I bet

    I hope the clippers carry on there run and cruise past them though

    I’m thinking of the Cavs ht/ft at EVS that’s a good price

  46. huggybear 9 years ago

    huggy`s (singles only mainbet)

    rockets game total over 218

    bulls/cavs ht total under 96.5

    small prop bet on deandre jordan over 14.5 rebounds and terence jones over 10.5 points

    GOOD LUCK TO THE USUALS , keep an eye on inplay , can save you !!!

  47. Picksix 9 years ago

    Ye I’m gonna bet it , normal stakes

    Cleveland Cavaliers HT/FT @ 20/21

  48. Jordan 9 years ago

    I get those on every bet I select mate. My gut tonight says Clippers advance in Houston. Beat the Spurs in San Antonio twice and have already taken a win in Houston. My main bet is the Cavs first half points but that HT/FT looks good!

  49. Picksix 9 years ago

    Hopefully they do , I don’t think any team in the playoffs want to be playing against Blake griffin atm what a monster he’s been in these playoffs and they seem to know how to keep the beard quiet

  50. huggybear 9 years ago

    here`s one , whose gonna be PLAYOFF MVP ?

  51. Jordan 9 years ago

    Won’t be sure until the Final but I’m going to go with 3. James, Curry or Griffin.

  52. Picksix 9 years ago

    BLAKE GRIFFIN without a doubt

  53. Jimbob 9 years ago

    HUGGYBEAR I THINK THAT YOU HAVE LOST THE PLOT

    GUARENTEED WINNER

    La clippers -2.5 10/11 ladbrokes

    • huggybear 9 years ago

      JIMBOB dont take me on !!! better men than u have tried and failed

    • huggybear 9 years ago

      by the way I’m only on the total not houston.

      but all good fun

    • huggybear 9 years ago

      bulls under 96.5 ht total * LOST *

  54. huggybear 9 years ago

    just think lebron may get it .

    griffin has been amazing though

  55. De Niro 9 years ago

    18-30 Rome

    Jankovic v Giorgi

    Jankovic 2-0 2/1 Coral(I would’nt take less than 2/1)

    WON !!!! :-)

  56. Jimbob 9 years ago

    WELL I WAS NOT EXPECTING THAT COMMENT FROM YOU HUGGYBEAR :0

  57. Hunter 9 years ago

    Good shout again De Niro, would’ve been on that but missed it!

    NBA PLAYER PROPS

    Taj Gibson (Bulls) Under 12.5 points @ 10/11 Skybet

    Kyrie Irving (Cavs) Over 20.5 points @ 20/23 Ladbrokes

    Tempted by the a few tips by the usual suspects but think I’ll just stick with my props tonight!

    Good luck guys!

  58. Recoba 9 years ago

    Eventually settled on this point spread/game total 4 fold.

    Touch ambitious but think LeBron to seal it for Cavs no problem and may take him on prop points as single too? Hmmmm :|

    Cavs – 9…Points total over 183
    Clippers ML…points total over 213

    Pays just over 81

    GL all an its a goodnight from me. :)

  59. Recoba 9 years ago

    LeBron over 8.5 assists 5/6

  60. Ad 9 years ago

    Really annoying not being able to follow, study and tip much on the tennis lately. A quick glance at today’s thread and i see de Niro with a great tip of Jankovic 2-0 giorgi. I was meant to be on JJ but forgot to place! never really doubted her here against CG. Saw bits of Azarenka today and she was pretty garbage. And 16 doubles to 0 aces speaks for itself. Woz struggled a bit against her recently but I expect her to win if she plays a half decent match. 1/1 to get it done. A tad wary though, Woz not 100% reliable, and this being WTA and all.

    I also think GGL is a decent price to beat Dolgopolov @ 10/11. But again, no guarantees here. So I’m going to keep stakes small and enjoyable.

    Woz d Vika
    GGL d Dolgo

    £10 win double returns £35

    £5 2-0 double returns £48

    Good luck whatever you’re on people

  61. Sfcmatty 9 years ago

    LeBron is a machine

  62. mlac 9 years ago

    wow this is the best ive ever seen lebron

  63. Picksix 9 years ago

    Chicago Bulls vs lebron James

    Always a good sign if Lebrons hot early on when backing the Cavs

  64. Picksix 9 years ago

    I can remember him doing this for miami against the Nets last season he won the game by himself , think he scored just under 50 points that game I wouldn’t be suprised if he gets more than that in this game

  65. Sfcmatty 9 years ago

    Thank you Jordan for yet another winner :) even with a slow start it’s in with 2 mins to spare

  66. Jordan 9 years ago

    Cleveland Cavaliers Over 49.5 1st Half Points @ 10/11 @ WillHill **WIN**
