NOVAK DJOKOVIC has never lost a match at the China Open and today the world No.1 goes for his sixth Beijing title against Rafa Nadal.
Djokovic, whose record at the tournament is now 28-0 after his semi-final cruise past David Ferrer, has won six of the past seven meetings with Nadal and is just 2-13 at Marathonbet while a 2-0 success for the Serb looks likely at 6-13 with Marathonbet.
Nadal has defied doubters, including me, with his run to the final and ended his Fabio Fognini jinx in the semis but Djokovic's class should prove far too strong.
In the early hours of this morning it's Stan Wawrinka versus Benoit Paire in the Japan Open Final. Paire shocked home hero Kei Nishikori in the last four and is 28-11 at Marathonbet to land the trophy while world No.4 Wawrinka is 4-11 at Paddy Power.
In the women's China Open Final it's Wimbledon runner-up Garbine Muguruza against Timea Bacsinszky who came from a set down to KO sixth seed Ana Ivanovic yesterday.
Nico Rosberg starts from pole at the F1 Russian Grand Prix but still trails Mercedes team-mate Lewis Hamilton in the betting. Ladbrokes chalk up the German at 11-8 while Hamilton, second on the grid, is evens at BetVictor.
At the Rugby World Cup Ireland are targeting the win over France that will see them avoid New Zealand in the quarter-finals and there's also the likes of snooker and plenty of NFL action taking place today so post your tips and chat here and good luck with your bets.
Still trying to figure out how Australia kept Wales out. That defence with 13 men was incredible to behold. Somehow managed to still enjoy it a little despite my finances being no better for it!
Tennis tomorrow sees paire carrying my only remaining hope of an good week. I may put something on Stan to win 2-1 @ 3/1 as Paire must have a good chance of making it close even if he falls short against his Swiss pal.
Ad, what’s ur thoughts on Bacsinszky to beat Muguruza?
Another NFL Sunday dawns and I’m hoping to turn around last weeks misfortune with two big wins. Posted the long write up throughout the week so will save thread space for the possible lashing at decisions made later on ;)
NFL – Week 5
Sunday Double
Green Bay Packers -6.5 – 6:00PM
New England Patriots ML – 9:25PM
0.99/1 @ 365 – 10 points
Put another 10 points on this, biting the bullet, if you follow bet what you can afford.
Green Bay Packers -6
New England Patriots ML
1.02/1 @ Skybet
No big losses for the Pack. Clay Matthews, James Jones and Randall Cobb were questionable in the week but now all probable. Matthews the biggest impact on our defensive side so that’s a big plus who will try to limit Gurley. The Packers let Matt Forte run wild in week 1 but since then have kept Marshawn Lynch, Jamaal Charles and Carlos Hyde all under 49 rushing yards, so rookie Todd Gurley might struggle despite running free against Arizona in the 4th quarter last week.
Right Tackle Bryan Bulaga is questionable which is a lot better than being doubtful and will be a big plus if he starts. That’ll be all of our offensive line starters being healthy but Don Barclay has done an ok job in his place.
Strong Safety Morgan Burnett is doubtful but has only played one game this season against the Seahawks, so Micah Hyde will probably fill in once more.
Wide Receiver Davante Adams looks set to miss his second straight game but he hasn’t been overly missed with Cobb, Jones and Montgomery all playing well.
Other than that the Pack are in good shape.
The Patriots don’t have one injury to name so should be good to go in Dallas.
Opponents injuries.
As said in the early write up, St Louis’ leading tackler Alec Ogletree underwent surgery in the week and will miss the rest of the season. Big loss but its their front end who offer the the biggest threat, but its nothing Aaron Rodgers shouldn’t take care of having dealt with high talented pass rushing against Kansas and Seattle.
Sean Lee has been cleared to play for the Cowboys but that’s probably the only positive they can take into this game against a well rested Patriots. Belichick has had two weeks to prepare for this, Tom Brady is on an MVP mission and no matter who you have on defense, you can’t stop Rob Gronkowski. Dallas on a short week. Hoping both teams are 5-0 by the end of Sunday.
Bold predictions
Packers 31-17
Patriots 37-20
Good luck if you take these picks
Jordan,
Thanks for the tips and keep up the good work.
What does the money line mean?
Skybet are offering Packers -6 at 8/13 and Patriots -7 at 4/7.
Thinking about a double?
Joe, the Money Line just means a straight up win. Why? I don’t know. I’m not American :)
It’s not a bad idea mate but I’m being cautious. If you can get the Patriots with a spread lower than -7 it would probably be ok in a double with the Packers -6.
Thanks Jordan didn’t realise ML meant a straight win….thought it was some special handicap margin!!
Thanks for clearing that up and good luck with ur bets.
In 3 years’ time, Tanner Mangum is going to be taken 1st overall in the NFL draft. You heard it here first boys and girls. The kid is balling lights out right now!
BigB you failed to answer my question but don’t worry I sniffed it out :) Utah/Cal should be a good one.
Just stuck the BYU game on BigB.
Oh sorry Jordan man, didn’t look at the Other Sports thread from yesterday. Yes, Cal v Utes should be a good game! Think the Utes will sneak that one, good defense against a rookie QB but I won’t be betting on the game myself. I am watching the BYU game myself, some of the highlights play are pretty sick with 2 block pants and a few 4th down plays.
For what its worth the Money line refers to the way odds are presented in the states on football. In the points spread your presented with the points that need to be covered in order for your bet to be successful.The money line uses the same system but the margin is not important. Instead of points, what is adjusted is the money, hence “moneyline.”
e.g. so for example Dallas are listed at +269 and the Pats at -311. When reading moneylines the favorite’s number has a minus, and the underdog (“dog”) has a plus. Here, of course, the Pats are a heavy favorite. So you would have to bet £311 to win £100 if you wanted to bet on the Pats to win the game. If you wanted to bet on Dallas to pull the upset you would get £269 for every £100 bet.
It was a simple method created by the mob to allow punters to quickly figure out the return on a potential bet that stuck back in the days of illegal gambling!
BYU defense 3 turnovers in 3 consecutive drives. Wow. Talk about making plays!
Lickirake, nice insight.
BigB watching the USA/Mexico game now but have got the Utes on the small monitor.
This Goff can sling it for Cal.
Jordan, I think he is in the same year as Tanner and he is ranked as the number 1 QB of that year class. That class is looking strong with Will Grier too from Florida.
Genuinely think I have a man crush on Tanner Mangum… Exited the game at the start of 4th with a tight / pulled hamstring. BYU’s backup QB comes in and all drives were 4 and out, defense let up 17 points. Tanner comes back with 3 minutes to go, march the team down the field (77 yards) and score a go ahead TD. Christ.
Oh no, I got that wrong. Goff is a junior this year, so he can enter the draft either this year or next year as a senior. But he is still apparently the number 1 QB if he decides to enter the draft this year. Ahead of Connor Cook and Cardale Jones.
TCU have had a big comeback too. Trevone Boykin with three 4th quarter TD’s. One for 69 yards…
Ind vs sad

Had a shocker yesterday on football so will ignore it today. Luckily there is loads of other stuff on! My main bet for today is on rugby, then I’ll join you experts on the NFL depending on how that goes. Jordan I’m already on your 20pts double so fingers crossed for that I’m almost nervous for you
Rugby world cup
USA v Japan
USA +12 handicap
1/1 skybet, coral
Jordan, whats the best site to use for NFL betting? Which tends to have the wider variety of bets, point spreads and better odds? Cheers
Attila when he went from 5-3 up in the second to lose 5-7 i thought he must be injured and about to retire, my blacklist of tennis players is getting longer than my arm. Lots of tournaments starting tomorrow so loads of 1/10ish odds should be about so lets make 53k lol
Gregs tip plus Finland to win are my double for today.. also Finland 2-0 at 8/1 looks a good shout. NI will revert to type with their foot off the pedal.
Humble, i know what you mean…my black list is massive. I thought Chung was safe though, he’s beaten some big players lately & only lost to top 10 players.
I’ll have a look and see what short price fave’s i think are rock solid tomorrow & will see if we can get some consensus going.
I’m on UNDER 19.5 games @ $1.90 in the Djokovic/Nadal match.
That means Djoker needs to win 6-4, 6-3 which I think he can do against Nadal. Ferrer is in better form than Nadal at the moment and he was beaten 6-2, 6-3.
I know Nadal still leads the H2H betwen the two, but most his wins were earlier on in Djokovic’s career & on clay. Djokovic to win 2-0 but to find some betting value am taking the UNDERS.
Good shout Attila i am going to double that with jared donaldson @1/2, he beat kudla and messed up my football acca that i choose to put 1 tennis match on so he can win me back some money today.
Konta is struggling against these lower end players, yet destroys all the top seeds…i dont get it.
Argentina vs Namibia (Rugby world cup):
– UNDER 65.5 total points @ $1.90
With Argentina having already qualified for the next round, and with Namibia’s defense being relatively stable I can’t see there being more than 50-60 points in this one.
It’s the motivation factor for her now, she probably think she shouldn’t be playing qualifiers anymore. She on the verge of winning now Attila
India win @ 4/5
Cover available at 8/1 south Africa win
Muller @ and fraction under 2/1 to beat Gasquet is worth a look. Reechard was pretty red hot in New York but had a disappointing first match following that against RBA. Muller is in good form himself, can trouble nearly anyone when his serve is going and has beaten Reechard a couple of times in relatively recent memory.

@Jordan, I don’t have the alternative spreads you have avaible. I have Packers -8,5 or -2,5 and Patriots -2,5.
So I can double:

NFL Sunday
Cleveland Browns @ Baltimore Ravens
Travis Benjamin O56.5 Receiving Yards – 17/20 @ BetVictor
The WR has made a good start to the season, during the first 4 game weeks he has seen 16 receptions for a total 328 yards, averaging 82 yards per game. This week the Browns visit the Ravens who give up 242.2 passing yards per game. This side have up 230 yards in total the Amari Cooper (WR) and Michael Crabtree (WR) in game week 2 and 227 just 2 weeks ago to AJ Green. With Benjamin averaging 20.5 yards per reception I expect this to be comfortable
NFL
New England Patriots @ Dallas Cowboys
* New England Patriots -7 @ 9/10
Posted this through the week and although Sean Lee has been cleared to play for the Cowboys I can’t see them stoppin the pats putting a big score on the board and offensively they will also struggle to keep up with them. I also don’t give Dallas home advantage as they perform better on the road than they do on there own turf so pats by a TD looks good to me
———————————————-
* CIN Bengals + 7.5
DEN Broncos + 4
NE Patriots ML
Treble @ 4/5
Seahawks Bengals is going to be intersting , big game for both and only early days, the fancy bengals to win this but the seahawks could also snatch wich it im hoping but should be no more than a TD. Raiders should give it a go but I can see the Broncos winning here. Raiders have started off well but lost to a poor Bears team last week and Andy Dalton tore them apart when cinci were there in the opener.
Oriaz I’d go with either of the bottom two.
Chicago Bears @ Kansas City Chiefs
Alex Smith O237.5 Passing Yards – 10/13 @ Bet365
The Chiefs racked up their most yards in a game for this season last week despite not being able to score a TD. Smith threw for an impressive 386 yards. He’d previously thrown for 243 and 290 at both Houston and GB but failed to reach the required number once when they hosted Denver. That’s no surprise seeing as Denver only allow average 275.5 rush and pass per game. With Macklin in form coming of the back of 2 consecutive 140+ reviving yards games Smith should be able to reach even against a resilient Bears D
ML Treble
Green Bay Packers
Atlanta Falcons
Cleveland Browns +14.5
Evens @ Bet365
Green Bays home record speaks for itself, Rodgers hasn’t trown an interception in 19 games at Lambeau and they are unbeaten in 13 home games. Packers have started perfectly being 4-0.
Falcons are boosted by the news of Julio Jones being active he leads the league is receiving yards. Atlanta look strong this season and this is echoed by their 4-0 start.
Big game in the AFC North, Ravens are favourites but have major injury concerns, Gillmore and Smith Sr are both inactive. The Ravens are without players who have scored 6 of their 9 TD’s this season.
Good luck all
Grand prix darts final
Over 6.5 sets 8/13 **WON**
– in my opinion a certainty. Expect mvg to win 5-2 or 5-3 as he does fade away occasionally in matches.
Mvg over 7.5 180s 10/11 **WON**
– loves the big occasion and as usual will be on fire for a period of time during this match.
Shock result, crowd booing didnt help MVGs chances. Both bets won though so good day.
BDO masters semis and finals tonight
Ashton 1/2 (womens)

Chief where you getting the Forsett yards that low? I looked around but best I could find was 82.5 @ 11/13 @ Bwin.
Afternoon Guys NFL week 5 Early games
Starting with the TV game two 1-3 sides square off and even though Philly have stunk the place out twice this season, there was hope in the second half that Sam Bradford had remembered how to throw a ball. The good news is this Saints secondary isn’t doing anything. I will trust Bradford and I like TE Jordan Matthews to score, if they get to the redzone he is a mismatch for safeties and LB’s. Matthews is 11/10 Hills.
Kansas are another side I fancy to win and they make him the second part of my treble. Jaamal Charles should run all over Chicago and in the passing game. If the Bears stack the box then Smith has Kelce over the middle, but I like Macklin in one on one coverage. He is 11/10 Ladbrokes.
My best prop of the early games is Ravens RB Justin Forsett. Cleveland rank 31st against the run and after a quiet start Forsett rushed for 150yds last week. I think he hits 3 figures again this week, so he should cover 80.5yds at 10/13 Bet365.
My other prop is a team prop and it is for the high flying Falcons to score O3.5tds. Washington under Cousins have lost 6 in a row on the road throwing 10 picks. Washington are without Jackson and Reed in the offence meaning a heavy dose on Alfred Morris. The biggest worry is although stats wise show the skins are decent today they are without both starting cornerbacks Chris Culliver and DeAngelo. Oh and Julio Jones as been cleared to play.
Matty Ice could have a field day and freeman out the backfield is on fire. Atlanta are averaging 34pts per game and in the dome I expect the scoreboard to be turning. O3.5tds is 6/5 Ladbrokes.

Am dreading playing your boys Jordan if Rodgers stays fit superbowl could be yours
The streak is over! Rodgers tipped ball gets picked off! Not entirely his fault but he is human after all.
I say not entirely his fault. It is, but not as if it was a clean pick off.
Lee possibly mate. The defense is playing very well too at the moment. Big team effort in the early weeks.
Pick six for the rookie Rollins! Foles is getting hammered on almost every throw.
Sorry Jordan just seen your post, it was Bet365. On my phone it is showing your question before I had even posted my bets haha
Ha-Ha Clinton Dix with the pass interference sets up the Rams first TD.
Chief I have no idea why but whenever I reply to a comment that has just been posted it always goes above, apparently I’ve posted it 5 minutes before the comment I’m replying too.
I never got why Matt Ryan is Matty Ice, supposedly ice is for ice cool, but in his post season games, he has been anything but ice… Just chucking this one out there cause he fumbled in the red zone. Aha.
Anyone watching the Falcons Skins game? Worth chucking some dolla on Falcons money line now that they are 7-3 down?
Rodgers no picks since 2013 at home. 2 in one game!! Looked like the DB trapped it though. Not called back.
Jamaal Charles looks like he’s had a bad one.
I’ve got to head out lads. Personal issue. Pray for the Packers.
Matty Ice…. Not very icy right now.
Jordan, Packers are looking good ahead, don’t think there is too much to worry about pal :)
Not a bad start to the Nfl evening. First acca busted but second acca up for 7/2 win and for first time this season my anytime scorer come up for a nice 14/1 bring on the late games
Alex Smith O237.5 Yards – LOST
Travis Benjamin O56.5 Yards – WON
CIN+14.5, GB, ATL – WON
USA rugby landed my only big bet of today by only losing by 10 which just about lands the +12 or 13 handicap whatever it was at evens. Glad I stayed away from football today. Just waiting on pats ML for Jordans double to land. Think I’m more nervous for him than myself!
Harry I am equally as nervous mate :-)
Harry, Cowboys can be got at 15/2 on the ML so it’s very easy to cover your bet now :)
Evening gents. Issue aborted. First off well done to Lee on the bets mate. Beauty. Secondly Packers got there in the end. Missed the last quarter or so would like to see how they played.
Cowboys can be taken @ 13/2 @ WillHill. Going to let it run. Pats could score again before HT.
Jordan, whats your take of the Giants game? Should be a Giants win but will they cover a -7 spread?
That is the longest field goal I’ve ever seen.
Bold predictions
Packers 31-17 Score 24-10
Got the margin right
nice win for GB in the end, good to see you’re back Jordan now they won, and NE is in front. ive took longer toilet breaks than your so called “have to go out” It takes me longer to take out the bins. do u have squatters right on ere?
I was out two hours. You can drive round my island in 40 minutes mate.
Jordan it’s looking good mate. Don’t bother responding to that, I’m not sure what the point of it was. Max what’s the problem?
Harry, down boy, that’s a good boy.
Evening gents, Lee well done mate
Not watched any of the game yet but pats seem like there in control
Cowboys can be covered @ 33/1 @ Co-ral. Highly unlikely the Cowboys come back though. Expect the Pats to carry on scoring.
Game over. What a play.
Jordan, pick six cheers lads, just needing denver to win to bring up the late acca though they not playing well.
Edelman brings the bacon home :)
Evening Tyler. Think your Pats bet is ok for now.
Chief good stuff on Forsett mate smashed it but unlucky with the Chiefs. Charles ACL I heard. Terrible stuff.
Lee I have the Broncos too mate will be watching it now the pats game is over , defence should keep the raiders out
Very witty max. Impressive stuff
Cheers Jordan well done yourself mate top stuff
What are we liking in the 49ers @ Giants? I like Torrey Smith over 50.5 receiving yards @ 5/6 for the 49ers against the 2nd worst receiving defense in the league.
Pick6 Broncos!!!
Chris Harris
Ruben Randles yards only 48.5 In the big apple later
I like that
Chris Harris just made a few happy.
The Broncos defence is immense , manning will of course struggle come play off time but defence wins superbowls
Picksix, unless your facing Tom Brady in the Superbowl ;)
Lee, excellent stuff mate. I need Denver for the treble, GL mate.
Jordan, cheers mate. Kansas did me, no doubt losing Charles hurt them, but to be fair Atlanta only won in overtime. I wouldn’t have changed those picks, it was just one of those days, and the 3 little words punting on the NFL everyone hates “any given Sunday” 1 out of 2 on props which are my main bets disappointed with.
Jordan absolutely superb mate thank you very much great tipping
Lol thanks for reminding me chief haha well done with your bets mate
thanks guys

Danny, WA cheers boys
Jordan did u watch Rams Pack game? Just seen gurleys yards !!!
@ picksix, any thoughts mate on the giants 49ers game. late home from pub so wud really appreciate any game info. thanks
Ive had a quick browse mate at first glance Ruben Randles yarrds at 48. 5 seem more than do able at EVS as OBJ will be in triple coveraage and the running game for the Giants hasn’t clicked. I don’t know wether I’m gonna back it myself yet though I guess I get 10mins to decide lol
San Francisco 49ers @ New York Giants
There was more retirements in San Fran this off season than an old folks home. I mentioned on this thread opening day when most fancied Vikings would beat the 49ers, I said they may not be as bad as advertised, and they won. In week two and three those words made me look like a fool as they were smashed Pittsburgh and Arizona, then Last week they played it tough against Green Bay.
The Giants are big odds on and are favoured by a touchdown so I think looking for value is on the underdogs. WR Torrey Smith was signed in the off season and is one of the quickest in the league, with him teaming up with Boldin again, they signed Reggie Bush and the emergence of Carlos Hyde I thought they had a nucleus of a decent offence. Keeping Kap upright as been the biggest problem.
Giants rank last in the pass D, they don’t give up the big deep threat only one play as gone beyond 40+ although they do give up 41 plays over 20yds. Carlos Hyde exploded in the NFL in week one but only rushed for 114yds in 3 games since, I expect on the road Hyde, and Reggie Bush out the backfield, Kap in the read option to open up the lanes in the secondary.
The niners are big underdogs on the road but I like two of their players to cover their lines. Carlos Hyde torched the Vikings d in week 1, since then he as been playing from behind so his stats have dwindled. He is back on prime time tonight and one big run, one miss tackle could bring up his line set at O54.5yds at 10/11 Skybet.
The other player I like is Torrey Smith, he ripped off a huge play against the Steelers and with a line as low as it is, I can see him going over. If he gets 5 or 6 receptions it is done, or he can get it done with one play. His line is O45.5yds at 10/11 Stan James.
PROP BETS
HYDE O54.5yds 10/11
SMITH O45.5yds 10/11
Good luck if your having a bet
Nothing on the late game for me. Had a good day so I’ll leave it at that and look to next week.
cheers mate
going for Giants -13.5pts @ 2.75 & also rubin randles yrds @ over 48.5. gudluck any1 having a bet
Ye I’ve backed Randles yards not putting it up as not necessarily a tip but a smallish bet for interest but I think it has a good chance of landing
Danny, Lee and Jordan cheers guys, not been a bad night cant complain with a treble and prop, but could of been better. Well done again with your bets guys, makes this thread what it is.
Picksix sorry mate to remind you about last year, I can assure you everyone on this thread felt like you did that night, I just couldn’t go against Terrific Tom
We certainly did haha
