ANDY MURRAY is safely through to round two of the French Open and today sees another busy day of star-studded action.
Defending champ Rafa Nadal aims to get off to a confidence-boosting start against Quentin Halys and top seed Novak Djokovic opens against Finnish veteran Jarkko Nieminen.
There's an intriguing showdown between big-serving American John Isner – 2-5 for victory at Stan James – against Italy's Andreas Seppi, who sent Roger Federer crashing in the early rounds of this year's Australian Open and is 12-5 at Boylesports.
Women's top seed Serena Williams, twice a winner in Paris, begins her campaign against Andrea Hlavackova and other matches worth keeping an eye on include Eugenie Bouchard (4-7, Sportingbet) versus Kristina Mladenovic (13-8, Paddy Power) as well as Karin Knapp's attempt to pull off a shock against Caroline Wozniacki.
Cycling's Giro d'Italia reaches stage 16 today with Alberto Contador 7-2 favourite at bet365 and in the NBA Eastern Final Cleveland Cavs go for the clean sweep as they take a 3-0 series lead into the latest clash with Atlanta Hawks.
There's also the likes of speedway and a cricket ODI between Pakistan and Zimbabwe so good luck with your bets and post your sporting tips and chat here.

Draymond Green (Warriors) Over 29.5 Points/Rebounds and Assists @ 5/6 @ 365 – 3 points **WIN** 17 points, 10 rebounds and 3 assists in the 3rd quarter.
Backed Harden in game 3 and thought I’d leave him after that and now he’s running riot. Backed Curry tonight and he misses minutes due to that injury, frustrating as can’t help but think he would have pushed over 29.5 plus he might have had more say on the scoreline.
Thanks anyway for the picks Huggy, I was on Green over 13.5 which won and like I’ve mentioned Curry going off is out of our control but the tip was a good one.

Rolling bet
Bet 5
Giants @ Brewers
Team to score first wins @ 1.38 (a humongous £40.46 on this one)
I am personally going to hold out a till later to put this on. Yesterday the price started at 1.38 for the rolling bet and went up to 1.4. I know it’s only 0.02 but every little helps on these rolling bets and the aim is to get odds of 1.4 or greater so I can hit my target of £10 to £100 over the 7 bets.
Should have went with the wee gut feeling I had about the Rockets. Tennis for today – I think Mladenovic could cause a shock against an out of form Bouchard
Ok I’v had a study & for tomorrow I’m going Almagro v Dolgopolov over 38 games at 5/6. They’re matches have been close in the past Dolgopolov winning the last on clay he is the younger higher ranked player so I’m surprised Almagro is favourite but Almagro is very good on clay.
I also fancy Muller to beat Lorenzi at 4/6.
Morning, anyone who missed this from last night also I’m going to go over games 41 at 10/11Seppi v Isner this looks like it’s got a long one written all over it.
Good luck all!!
Shotty, that’s a good treble the only worry would be Kvitova she can be very erratic at times.
Heard Curry went off injured last night, doubt that was the only factor in Rockets win but didn’t see that one coming!
Had GSW to cover the spread but thankfully went with a good stake on over 55 GSW HT points, and Draymond Green (Jordan) on my props.
Still a 7 point loss for yesterday but could have been worse I suppose!
Good luck today guys!
What’s peoples thoughts on this early tennis treble?
Joao Sousa win
Kuznetsova win
Kvitova to win 2-0
Just under evens @Skybet would love to hear any tennis fans thoughts
Decided to go with the treble I mentioned last night thanks for the advice guys let’s hope it lands odds have dropped slightly so it’s 0.89/1 now at SkyBet

Is still alive and Sock takes Dimitrov on as a 3/1 underdog today, while Seppi bids to topple big John Isner @ 12/5.
Good luck with all your bets folks.
Mark- agree completely with your poin about Kvitova, was about to make it myself. Kvitova to win in straight sets is not a bet I would ever take on. She picked up the nickname P3tra for a reason!
Any wta player in straight sets is a gamble to be fair!
So little do I trust Kvitova that 12/1 for Erakovic to win and 4/5 to win + 6.5 games is whispering to me. I should probably ignore the voice…but I’m not sure I can!
Kuznetsova, Bacinsky, Petkovic & Jancovic all to win 2-0 @ $7.56
(Remaining 4 legs of AD’s rollin straight win 8 fold – only 1 of the 1st 4 let it down yesterday so gonna try again today)
Erakovic @7.50 now. Let’s do it, Ad.
Poor night yesterday like most but it happens.
Should mayer beat vesely? Currently 2games down and that inplay price is tempting
GSW FT SPREAD -5 *LOST*
GSW HT SPREAD -3 ISH *LOST*
KLAY THOMPSON 1ST BASKET/WINNER 17/2 (TENNER) *LOST*

5 LOSERS / 3 WINNERS ,SO NOT GOOD , THESE GAMES ARE IMPOSSIBLE , BREAK EVEN WITH LAST NIGHT…
I’ve put a little punt on erakovic, but I can’t see it giving me a run for my money kvitova looks strong and erakovics forehand looks terrible so far. Hopefully though at them odds she pulls through for us.
Haha Ad thats a good nickname for her. Good luck today.
True Felix!!
First set Erakovic @3.60 looks good now.
Kvitova’s footwork is quite awful.

What’s your thought on mladenovic v bouchard?
Tasty price 3/2 Skybet mladenovic had a good run of results on clay!
Bouchard has been rotten form!
Safely say ma NAP for today Goodluck if you follow..
KC Royals let me down in spectacular fashion (14-1 loss) for the full-house but 2 out of 3 is a good return and yet another profitable day.
A result like that shows that anything can happen in baseball. This is why I am desperate not to pick at less than even money, as the value just isn’t there in this sport. A win % of around 40-45 can yield a decent and achievable profit if the time is spent looking for it.
If you look at the day’s games and list your idea of the favourites before seeing the bookies odds, you get yourself a shortlist to work from. There tends to be at least a gem or 2 every day in the underdogs (yesterday’s were the Giants and Rockies for me).
Of course, with the nature of underdog betting, we can have periods of consecutive losers but spells like I have had over this past week or so means accounts can handle them easily.
To follow on from yesterday’s thread about someone moaning about Hunter’s picks… Seriously! How can anyone be following this page and be losing money? And even if you are, nobody is forcing anyone to bet on anything.
Mladenovic strikes me as being mentally weak. Bouchard is just reckless. Always potential for am upset with Bouchard of course Because of how she plays (all or nothing.
Mladenovic will be bouyant after reaching final last week whereas Bouchard has shown no form at all
For me its a straight sets victory for Mladenovic
Trev,…
ISNER V SEPPI has the makings of a long game,
Both good on serve and could be a few tiebreaks
Over 42 games looks the bet for me
Trev,..
Yep the 1st possible upset that caught my eye was Mladenovic to beat Bouchard, wont be going mad as womens tennis is as unpredictable as my bowel movements after a night on the sauce, just a small bet on her.
can anyone see kvitova losing this match? relying on her for a 4fold, everyone else on there way to winning but her
This game is unbelievable and unpredictable george. I hope Erakovic can win it.
jeremy chardy, set down against berrer can he turn it around and win the match? need him for another treble
Been thinking about Djokovic – Nieminen.
Can anyone see Nieminen winning more than 7 games against Djokovic? Under 25.5 games is at 1.95
I’m thinking about doubling it with the Seppi-Isner over 42 games
The double pays 3.72
That’s a super low total. Novak very capable of doing it but Nieminen on his day is no mug and Novak has need to win that easily so it’s not something I really fancy.
Rafa to lose in play @ 170/1…. Yes please
Jordan/Huggy,
GSW to win game 5? And covering the handicap or can HOU go on a streak from here?
(Clearly never guna happen, but too tasty for me to not nibble at)
Ad,
A lot of respect for you as a tennis tipster,, however that is the most ludicrous and absolutely ridiculous “tip” or bet I’ve ever seen no matter what the odds are
i think attlia was being sarcastic..
Ellis, It was just a silly. £2 bet, not a tip of any kind. Just sharing my wild optimism with the fine folks on here. A fair price for a little extra zest to what was always going to be a boring match to watch. Wish ITV would show competitive matches rather than big names.
Cheers Ad. Maybe I’m underestimating Nieminen but from what I’ve seen of him he was terrible.
Not good form either winning 2 from last 7.
Anyone see what happened in the Janowicz – Hamou game? Strange handshake at the end. Video on twitter
Good luck with it mate, it’s certainly got a good chance, just a bit of a gamble. It could all come down to who serves first
I’m guessing Hamou got annoyed with something Janowicz did (he’s pretty vocal).
Tennis Single
Dimitrov Vs Sock (4:15pm)
Only the second game between these two with Dimitrov winning that H2H which was a 3 sets win in Stockholm last fall. That match also went the distance and I think we’ll have overs again. For Sock 4 of last 5 matches have ended in overs, for Dimitrov 3 of last 5.
Dimitrov isn’t exactly in good form this season while Sock played good on clay and he won his first career title in Houston on clay. Dimitrov is set as big favorite but I really can’t see him winning 3-0 and expect sock to take 1 or maybe even 2 sets from Dimitrov.
Game Totals: Over 36.5 @ 10/11 bet365
Good luck!
I’ve got one pick that I really like and one pick in a market I have never touched before:
Firstly, the Twins (w/Pelfry) @2.10, at home to the Red Sox (w/Buchholz).
After beating them 7-2 yesterday, with 16 hits spread around their whole lineup, I see no reason why today, the Twins are the underdogs. With Pelfry, they are likey to get 6 innings with around 3 runs given up but should easily get to Buchholz and the Red Sox bullpen, giving them a great chance to outscore them.
Going against the “big name” in Buchholz has served me well so far this year, let’s see if it continues.
****
The second that I have my eye on is Detroit. The problem is, they are slight favourites @1.86 on the ML, away to Oakland. Therefore, I have looked at alternative markets and found that for the Tigers to be winning after 7 innings is @2.05. I will explain why I think this is a good shout:
I can’t ignore how much better, in every aspect of the game the Tigers are to the A’s and despite Chavez pitching for them tonight (who is doing very well this year) it is Price for the Tigers that is the main reason for the pick.
On his day Price is up their with the very best of them and this year he has had a lot of those days. The key here though, is he is a left-handed starter and Oakland are 1 win from 10, when up against them this year – None will have been tougher than Price either!
So… despite Chavez being pretty good, I would be surprised if arguably the best hitters in baseball don’t knock a few in off him in the first 6/7 innings and would be very surprised if the A’s did the same to Price.
Dazzler – Is this a market you have done before?
What’s the thoughts on Jack Sock and Mladenovic to win a set? Looks pretty good just over evens too
Hunter that looks a decent overs bet. I’m hoping Socks really competitive against Grigor. Great chance to be
oh I do love the early rounds of garos plenty of money coming in
Agreed, Ad. They need more options. Something like bbc during wimbledon. It’s hard to call matches when they’re not on tv.

Jankovic always seems to let me down anyone watching her ? Ruining a treble of mine
What the heck is jankovic playing at?
Women’s tennis! Sums it up nicely
Ruining a lot of mine! Is she injured? I hadn’t realised she retired in he least match. karatantcheva is someone she should have absolutely no trouble with
NBA bet
*Steph Curry over 29.5 points @ 5/6 ( double steaks)

Bad luck on that one he still scored 23 and only jus made 30 minutes on court
Double stakes record
3 WIN , 4 LOSE :(
After months of it being a piece of p*ss it’s been hard the past week 2 weeks on the NBA to find consistent winners, of course due to the fact of minimal games and using slim pickings from a game you would usual avoid if it was in the regular season
Time she retired and save this acca

Tajfun Sentjur @ Rogaska (4pm)
The series is currently tied at 1-1 which makes this game all the more important. The two previous games have both had 70 & 60 first half points. Hoping to see both teams focus largely on their defensive play and think there’s good value on the FH unders.
First Half Total: Under 71.5 @ 5/6 sporting bet

If anyone wants a decent tennis double go with estrella to beat busta and muller to beat lorenzi. Also getting on berlocq to win in play betting.
@MAGIC MALCOLM
YOU CAME ON HERE LAST WEEK WITH YOUR CONFIDENT SOUNDING POSTS AND THEY FAILED
WHY YOU DISRESPECTING AD FOR?
What are you referring to Malcolm? My 170/1 bet on Halys?! Why should
I keep that to myself. I make very clear what my tips are, anyone who’s seen my tips knows how to recognise them. Why shouldn’t I share the fact I find Rafa to lose @ 170/1 too tasty to turn down?? If the common sense didn’t tell people it was a wildly ludicrous bet the odds would. If anyone followed that as a result of me posting and is disappointed that I led them astray then please step forward and I’ll apologise! I’ll even consider refunding them!
Who you fancy in round 2 Ad?
Over 39.5 in almagro v Dolgo sneaks home at 40. Well done those tipping and backing that
Lovley main bet in Almagro v Dolgopolov over games. Quite sweaty again but nice.
no one should slag anyone off we all put up tips that we think can win and all contribute to the site if u don’t like someones tips then don’t back it and don’t disrespect this acting childish will only get you banned
Don’t know what happened to Seppi sounded rubbish!!
Exactly PP, we are not the enemy that’s the Bookie!!!
Really annoying not being able to watch the matches I want. Going to make it a little trickier to pick winners this fortnight, will have to start some trying to stream some of these I think. Seppi flopped, Isner proving his recent good form wasn’t just a flash in the pan. I thought slower conditions here would’ve made life harder for him but he’s proven me wrong.
And Jankovic about to follow suit by the looks of things. Sorry folks, surprising and disappointing in equal measure
FYI im also on Nieminen at 200/1….yes I will lose my £2 again but it’s a fun ride so far. (Disclaimer: this is not a tip!)
@MAGIC MALCOLM DID YOU JUST SAY SHOW RESPECT?
AFTER YOU SLAG SOMEONE OFF WHO HAS BEEN CONTRIBUTING TO THE SITE FOR AGES
GOOD LUCK WITH YOUR LO.. PICKS
Were they playing on outside courts? Apparently they’re not watered as much, meaning they’re dryer and give isners serve a bit more pop.
I’m the comeback but betting now suspended? Is one of them injured?????
not bet on it but I see bouchards poor form is continuing
Karatantcheva just won. Jankovic had an easy smash but put it into the net.
NBA bet
Atlanta Hawks @ Cleveland Cavaliers
* Atlanta Hawks total points over 92.5 @ 10/11
(Double stakes)
I think this is set preety low , they should surely put in a do or die performance against the Cavs , the Hawks are to good to get swept away 4-0 , both teams made a lot of shots from downtown last game and I expect the same again, I’m not to sure they will win the game and the spread is generous aswell but if kyrie is back for the Cavs later they could put up just as big of a score wich is why I’m going with the points total over the spread ( also I need a Cavs win for my eastern conference bet to land)
What the other hoops men on?
Gents berlocq back from 2 sets down and will win now. Hope you got on. Tip 1 of 3 almost in.
Bouchard is unbelievably Bad at times. She puts 100% into every return and usually misses. Such a shocking tactic.
Hunter that breezed home i had it at 68.5 though what a low scoring game that was cheers buddy

You’re welcome Picksix, glad you got on!
Your bet looks good for the Hawks points….like you say, they really need to go for it and that does seem like it’s set low. Prob after their showing in the last game but they were unusually shot shy from the 3 point line!
Ad and others,
Anyone think estrella Burgos 1/1 is too good a price considering the half decent form he’s been in
Only just seen this Ellis. Wouldn’t have liked to call it either way myself. I have a small bet on overs but that’s it.
They’ve been shy behind the ark since the playoffs mate , kyle korver being cold doesnt help , it’s strange to see seing as though thats what there game was all about in the regular season, they’ve been shy to even make the attempts.
What I did notice in the last game is that they were not afraid to pull the trigger where as in the other games instead of shooting the good look they would dribble it inside for a lay up, if they make the most of the opportunities and the 3s drop then the total should land

You’re right, I remember tipping two Korver prop points for that reason! Think they both landed and I’m pretty sure they would’ve landed in the previous two games before that if you’d bet on them. Not had time to look into the game…do you know if Korver is over his ankle injury?
Dimitrov is the last bet on my accumulator. I could’ve cashed most of it but I didn’t. He is losing now, not again the last bet that ruins it please!!!
Initially it was meant to be a long term injury but I’m not to sure on it mate I don’t think he will back anytime soon
Thata boy Sock, save the day!
If Dmitrov was smart, he’d be targeting the backhand more. What an idiot.
I’ve got a 3.5 set accumulator riding on this. Surely can’t go out in straights.
He will Felix… My last bet always ruins it. Unbelievable.. I can’t win anything.
Cashing out my Sock bet now for 95% profit. Needed that, thanks Jack!
Ffs Dimitrov!!! Should have cashed out on the overs at 85% profit. I knew his form was abysmal but thought he’d at least win a set!
Felix, I see I never knew that makes sense any extra advantage on Isners already huge serve is practically unplayable. I’ll keep an eye on that in future.
Just looking at French Open quarter winners. I quite like the look of
Bacsinszky @ 8.5/1
CSN @ 4.5/1.
Especially the first of those.
Anyone liking the look of those ?
To win the third and fourth quarters respectively.

Dimitrov Vs Sock (4:15pm)

Dimitrov isn’t exactly in good form this season while Sock played good on clay and he won his first career title in Houston on clay. Dimitrov is set as big favorite but I really can’t see him winning 3-0 and expect sock to take 1 or maybe even 2 sets from Dimitrov.
Game Totals: Over 36.5 @ 10/11 Bet365 **LOST**

Thought this might be safer than backing Sock. Can’t believe Dimitrov couldn’t win a set!
Ok, so I lost again with the last bet. I can’t trust anyone ffs.
No tennis anymore for me… Or does anyone have a good bet?
Jaseos I’ve done it once so far this season and it was rangers to be winning at the end of the 5th which came in. Not something I would usually take unless I’m sure.
The only game I like tonight is Giants to beat Brewers but I’m taking a risk as it’s my only main bet tonight and backing them on the run line -1.5 @ 2.2.

I’ll have a study tonight for tomorrow & see what’s what.
Poor day on the tennis for me.

Liking Jordan’s… J.R Smith OVR 14.5 on it but can’t find it on hills? Le Bron has been on fire no doubt he can do it but it’s quite high OVR 30.5… I saw he was on the bench before hitting his last shot for OVRS the other night. It’s all a gamble tho right

Double stakes on the post above
Half stakes on this bet
Assists match bet
Jeff Teague + 2 assists over lebron james @ 5/4 (half stakes)
Tad they don’t have it on Hills mate. 365, PP and Skybet.
Bet-Fair have 13.5 @ 17/20 also if you have an account there.
Tad very much a gamble mate. J.R Smith doesn’t even start for the Cavs but all it takes is one quarter and he can go off. I was tempted on LeBrons total points/rebounds and assists but 49.5 is quite high even for him.
I’ve just realised I’ve put WillHill in my bet hahaha, sorry Tad. It was with Skybet.
Tennis fans,
Who do we reckon will when when Muller vs Lorenzi is resumed tomorrow?
No worries Jordan mate I know what you mean J.R can explode like you said only takes a good QTR & he’s on way… Bookies not taking much risks with le bron they running scared lol…
I’ve just seen ads comment at the bottom. Somebody tell me there wasn’t a moan because his 170/1 lost? Haha
Jordan,
In a sense I can sort of understand where the person was coming from. I know in no way was it a tip , but for some people just coming on here and following it blindly it may have been misleading. I know you would look at 170/1 and think it has no chance, there is two sides to a argument and ad was just following it for fun so shouldn’t be shot down.
I personally believe it was a silly bet anyway as it had no chance haha but ad did it for interest so I don’t blame him for telling people
Ellis, I don’t agree. No problem mentioning it – any punter knows the chances of a 170-1 shot landing.
He’s really not quite at home on clay but I’m going to have to back Mahut @ 9/2 to beat Gulbis. There’s a chance Gulbis will finally come alive is week, but the fact is he’s been useless all season ( 3 wins, 12 losses) and Mahut has guile and experience in abundance. 3-0 Gulbis wouldn’t be a surprise, but there are enough variables here to make me want to gamble.
Mahut @ 9/2
Ad,
What you reckon to the conclusion of muller vs Lorenzi
Providing it’s not 170/1 I’ll pay attention. I’m on muller but may have some more for added interest
Had to get the 170/1 in there my friend ;)
Hah. I’ve no idea mate. I fancied Muller to edge it before hand and backed him when he was down at smallish stakes. But as I’ve not seen a second of it it’s hard to say. Watching matches makes it infinitely easier to pick
GREAT VALUE
haven’t really been tipping as of late as Everytime I do my bet goes tits up but had to share this bet,
Tsonga v Dudi Sela over 26.5 games, 5/6 with 365,
Been looking at the matches for over an hour and this stands out ,
Great value , even if tsonga comes out firing sela will only need to win 9 games and he played a great first round winning against kukushkin in 3 straight sets,
Also the fact is tsonga has not been playing great of late and has had some difficult matches against lesser opponents , Sela should really win at least nine games over 3 sets at least
£80 stake.
Decent shout there mate. still reeling I didn’t tip and back Sela in 1st round @ 8/1. Tsonga is only fairly recently back from injury so that’s another thing glint in your favour. I fancy him to win without too many problems, but he’s not the best returner in the world by any means. Underrated clay coutree though and I think he could be in for a good fortnight. Low low total though
Evening I’v had a study & for tomorrows overs bet I’m going for Stakhovsky v Johnson over 37 games 8/11. There’s no previous meetings but they look evenly matched & their games match up well on clay for a long match.
Ellis, I was on Muller before the match & had given up hope so hopefully he’ll win but it’s a pure coin toss.
Mr F
Would you back something which has no chance of coming in?
Ellis, I wouldn’t back a 170-1 shot and it wasn’t put up to be backed.
Lorenzi actually looked the better player for most of the match and then seemed to stiffen up a bit with a weird injury. Wouldn’t touch it.
Ad,
I would have been comfortable if the match had continued. I watched the match and Lorenzi needed the trainer a few times and in all fairness outclassed muller most of the match.
The momentum was with muller though and I was gutted with the delay which I think swings the pendulum back in lorenzis favour ?!
Might have something to do with lorenzi playing a hard court tournament 2 days earlier. The transition maybe took its toll.
Felix,
Totally agree. Watching it i would have felt a lot more comfortable my money being on Lorenzi.
However, it’s on muller and I think on the evidence of Lorenzi clearly struggling to close out the match my muller bet has legs

I DONT UNDERSTAND WHAT YOUR PROBLEM IS THERE HAVE BEEN LONGHSHOT WINNERS OF ODDS GREATER THAN THAT
IF SOMEONE DOES NOT RECOGNISE THAT IT IS A LONGSHOT BET THEN YOU SHOULD NOT BE GAMBLING
Also going Low stakes High reward on Almagro 3/1, 3-2 @ 24/1 and 20/1. We may know after this one whether Rafas still the king and if the 5/1 outright available on him is the generous price it could be

Jordan just thought I would take a chance on them tonight after what happen in the game last night with rockets.
Don’t know.
Fair enough Daza mate. I was just surprised I was the only one backing the Cavaliers.

I know mate its just one of those things. Always need a bit of luck on your side but Smiths level of 3 point shooting is just too good.
