7 out of 9 favs won overnight in Acapulco, with Kookie and Kerber losing. The latter had played in the final in Bogota on Sunday and it's so often the case that those players do badly in their first match the next week - always worth laying. Last week, Hercog and Deme had both lost. Though having said that, Venus cruised through with no problem. No such thing as hard and fast rules in this game, it's not physics!
All 4 favs trotted up in KL. I missed a couple winners through failing to get up in time dammit. Didn't have enough faith in them to put the money down and just leave it, ah well.
Got done by an unexpectedly rapid collapse by Hradecka. Think of her as quite a solid fighter and of Dulko as a bit of a flaky finisher, so was happy sitting on my bet going into the 3rd set, only for Hradecka to collapse so fast there wasn't much chance to get out of the bet. This then made me a bit leery and I took the cautious route in the Kerber lay only for that one to come in! Mind you, with Kerber winning the 1st set I think discretion was the right play there.
Also had a lay of Barca in the CL but bottled it when Barca equalised. It could've been so much more. More CL tonight and Acapulco back to a 9pm kickoff tonight. What a civilised time that is.
