ATP Picking Game: Davis Cup QF

Davis Cup

by Scotsguy (U1706091) 07 April 2008

---0 MATCHES REMAINING---
---NEXT EVENT: Valencia---

How to Play
- Every player has 10 picks. All picks must be used in matches of the Davis Cup World Group Quarter Finals. The points besides each fixture represent the points you score if that player wins. If your pick is wrong you LOSE 10 points. Whoever has the most points at the end of the tournament is the winner. To play post your picks on this thread, try to number them. A valid pick must be in the format Player A def/over Player B (Winner First). By the end of the tournament all 10 picks must be used, unused picks will be counted as losses. You are allowed to post picks each day until the match starts, so please check the order of play. All picks posted after play starts are invalid and can be replaced. A pick is void if a match does not take place due to withdrawal or a change in the draw but is valid if at least one point is played (so retirements count). Each player will also be able to place �Djoker Cards� on any ONE of their 10 picks. If your "Djoker" pick wins you earn double winnings if he loses you will not lose any points. In case of more than one player being tied on the same score, the tiebreak will be number of right picks, if still tied then by 1st highest scoring pick, 2nd highest scoring pick etc.

hey dj! how are you?
Are we playing the doubles? You don't have to of course. But it'd be good to support magpie. (now is this pressurising in disguise? )

Okay so the semis are....

Benson vs Chumba
Scotsguy vs RedDevils

As you know this is my last tournament directing guys, although I'll still be picking etc. So catch you guys around but when I go back to school (on Wednesday) I'll probably only hop on to make picks and disappear again. Good Luck to all the other directors

It was divine intervention from the hands of LeBron James almighty.

Anyway in the space of 45 seconds, the Cavs odds dropped from 20+ to around 1.40. Of course I traded out, and I was very green on both sides. The Cavs actually lost in overtime, but that was irrelevant, I was greener than Al Gore's backgarden at that stage

Never been into baseball nope. I got into basketball because it is an ideal sport to bet on, and it seems more exciting than baseball to me. It's actually quite popular in continental Europe and I got into it while studying abroad for a year

Great story Nameless

Why were you tilting anyway? I didn't think you were that kind of gambler?
