Typical! Absolutely typical. The week was a complete disaster in the end and one which I'm putting behind me straight away.
Two guys that I backed last week, Tursunov and Moya decided that they would in fact win this week instead and the guy who I backed this week lost in the final, leaving me with a huge loss that has set me back a month in terms of funds.
The week had started well with a couple of winning wagers, but then Robby Ginepri lost in the first round in Indianapolis and most importantly, Novak Djokovic went out to a qualifier in Croatia, taking my maximum bet fundage with him. My saver bets to cover Starace's possible loss went wrong too along with a couple of individual match bets. All told it was a shambles.
Of course, it could have all turned out nicely yesterday if Potito Starace had done one of two things; either lost in straight sets as it looked like he would when a break down in the first set, or win the match, which it looked like he would when a set up and in control of the match. Neither of these things happened and I clung on to a maximum profit policy that in fact led to a hefty loss.
Still, one has to take these things on the chin and looking on the bright side, I have had a winner or finalist in the last three weeks now at big prices, so I just a tweak here or there with my match trading and some better fortune and I'm back in the game, starting today in Washington.
