Message: [QUOTE="BillyR23, post: 7188099, member: 103828"] From someone that watched the event live and even placed a bet in the deciding set on Anisimova([I]IMO the match was very similar to the one Naomi had in Montreal/ Canada against another fan favorite- Mboko- where after she failed to convert her chances to win in straight sets she just couldn't play close to her best in the 3rd set...[/I]); there was nothing 'easy' about this win... Naomi dominated the 1st set and it should have easily been like 6-2/ 6-3 instead of the 7-6... in the 2nd set, both players put a lot more pressure on the opponent's serve and returned a lot better- it really wasn't a big drop in the serve(the 3rd set was decided by just 1 break for example), it just was the dynamic of the 2nd set... in this conditions, Naomi was up a set and had 6-5 in the 2nd set, even started the game well 15-0 on Amanada' serve- not a bad place to be after you managed to break 3 out of 5 times in the set already... an honorable mention is the odds live on Unibet at this point for [B]Naomi to win was 1.01[/B]... [ATTACH type="full"]391730[/ATTACH] My bet was on 3rd set handicap games[B][I] Amanda (-1.5 games[/I])[/B] at what looked IMO a value bet[B][I]@ 1.93[/I][/B] - just after the 2nd set finished, I've expected a slow start from Naomi(she took a long bathroom break but still wasn't enough- the mental game in sports is a real thing* that's why Nole is the GOAT...) and it was fast 1-4 but in the end, despite the 3-6 final score, the set was a close one and was decided by the fact that Amanda made the 1st and only break point she had on her opponent's serve, while Naomi missed 2 break points in the final game of the match... Overall- another very entertaining match between this two amazing tennis players and it's one of this matches were you feel like both players deserved to win and advance to the Final... PS. Congrats on your win [USER=1038982]@aorodrigo[/USER] and GLGL all with your bets $$$ * I'll put it here as a short mention, Brazil did dominate from start to finish vs. a modest team that showed nothing and won 3-0 (y):cool: [/QUOTE]
