Stephane Robert v Albert Montanes

You can tell that there is not enough tennis on now as I am getting involved in matches at stages I would normally not get in at!!

Discipline is not my strong point!!

Robert leads 6-4 3*-2 when I get on at 1.33. However he is immediately broken for 3-3*.

Hopefully Robert can take this set or I may not see such low odds again!

3*-4 And to think I was just about to go to bed for a couple of hours and wait for the Sprem v Dellacqua match!!

4-4* A break now would be sweet please Stephane! 0-15 .. 15-15 .. 15-30 C'mon!! .. 30-30 not far off a winner .. 40-30 .. Holds! Let him off then.

4*-5 0-15 Uh Oh don't hand him the set!! 15-15 .. 15-30 poor shot into the net! .. 30-30 .. 40-30 .. Deuce .. GP #2 and flip flop? Must have been a mistake from someone there!! .. Holds

5-5* Now let's get at this service game then Robert. old to 15 was not what I wanted!

5*-6 Free game for Montanes now! Hold it together here Stephane! Montanes trading at 2.22 a set down when sp only 1.78!! Burn those fat fingers Steph!! Uh oh!!! 15-30 ..  30-30 .. FFS 30-40 .. Deuce .. BP #2 Lucky git Montanes !! ... Deuce great running .. Stay down Montanes!! ;-) .. GP Shot! .. TAKE IT! .. Pffft tired looking shot should have won it!! Deuce .. GP .. Holds!!

Tiebreak! Montanes to serve 1st MB please!
0**-1 Two holds needed!
1*-1 Another point like that please!
2 -1** MB please!
3-1* Yes and another?
4**-1 Get in now two holds please!
4*-2 Arrgh MB back! Hold this one at least!
4-3** FFS what a plonker! MB's needed then please!
5-3* Yes and another?
6**-3 LOL TAKE IT!!!
Yess Set Robert!

Bloomin heck odds quite high still!
Trying to get out at 1.16 but there's a bit of a queue may have to accept the 1.19 on offer! OOPs too late 0-15 Bugger!! 0-30 .. 15-30 Hold ffs!! 15-40 WTF?? .. 30-40 Fight!! .. Deuce .. GP .. Hmm 0-0 1.19 on offer GP for 1-0 and 1.24!??? Deuce (1.32) .. FFS BP #3 .. Deuce .. GP #2 This time? .. Holds and 1.22!

1-0* OK odds are forcing me to stay in so let's have a nice early break please! Holds !

1*-1 WTF is going on here? 1-1 2-0 up in sets and now 1.32??? Burn those fat fingers Stephane how dare they lay a player of your ability at these crazy prices!! Ah nuts 0-15 .. 0-30 .. 0-40 .. Break!! Brain Fart moment? The market knew more than I did obviously!

1-2* Need to get a break back quickly and then Monatanes spirit may be broken. 1.59 again !! Ridiculous it's 1 break very early in the 3rd set while he's 2 sets down! 0-15 .. c'mon .. 15-15 .. 30-15 .. 30-30 .. 40-30 .. Holds.

1*-3 Stay with him then with a good hold. FFS from 30-0 to 30-30 with two weak shots! 30-40 Don't give up this set already! Break!!

1-4* Robert looking very jaded here I'm switching @ 1.75 as Montanes may quickly level this match !! FFS typical Montanes takes his foot off the gas and we have 0-30 .. 15-30 .. I need Montanes to get back to 1.77 to get out of this now!! 30-30 .. 40-30 .. Holds

1*-5 This service game will be telling from Robert imo. He may rally here in which case he will have to serve 1st in the 4th but if he continues to struggle then I don't hold much hope for him! 30-40 .. Deuce .. GP .. Holds

2-5* That hold may not have been wise as he is struggling and should now have to come out and serve 1st next set! As long as Montanes serves this out that is! Hold to Love!

Set Montanes right Robert to serve first and hopefully Montanes will pile on the pressure here. Break coming I feel! (Well I hope anyway!)

Here we go!! 0-15 .. FLip Flop!!! 0-30 He is gone serve is so slow now!! .. 15-30 and yet Montanes still loses a point! ..  30-30 Jeez Albert keep it in play you muppet! .. 40-30 what a let off. Net , wide, wide from Montanes! .. Deuce c'mon get the BP! .. BP!! TAKE IT!!! Only 1.94 Montanes??? BREAK!!!

0-1* Now hold and we may well soon run away with this! From what I am seeing 1.68 is massive on Montanes right now!! Only one player on court and he ain't French! Hold to 15

0*-2 Big game this! Robert is out on his feet it would seem but a hold could rally him! Need a break! 15-0 wide return from a poor 2nd serve! .. 30-0 FFS Long on easy shot. .. 40-0 Wide when court was open!! 40-15 .. 40-30 he's dead out there take advantage!! Holds. What a wasted opportunity Albert!

1-2* Only a mug like Montanes could now lose this match against an poor journeyman who is absolutely knackered and can not get any power into his shots or serve! Please seal the deal Albert! FFS from 30-0 to 30-30 .. 40-30 .. Double Fault!! Deuce what a spanner!! Opponent on the ropes so throw some DF's in to help him?? ARe you trying to give him a second wind?? .. GP .. Yep those easy points have given Robert some belief and energy .. Deuce!! Such a head game this tennis!!  GP #3 .. Deuce .. Montanes not working hard enough now dropped his level to match rather than push on! .. GP #4 Now take it and pile the pressure on Robert's serve as he's starting to get some fight back! Holds!!

1*-3 Need a break here to stop any thoughts of a comeback firmly in their tracks! Otherwise I may have to dump this bet! 30-0 pecker def up for Robert now! 30-15 .. 40-15 .. 40-30 that's better make him run!! .. Deuce great return! .. GP a wasted opportunity sent well wide!! .. Holds

2-3* Need a strong hold here! Much better hold to love!

2*-4 Now pressure on please! 0-15 .. 15-15 .. 30-15 .. 40-15 ACE!! .. 40-30 .. Holds!! This set should really be over by now if Montanes had an ounce of killer instinct!

3-4* WTF trainer Montanes???? Don't you effin dare!!! What is he trying to do? Give Robert as many psychological boosters a s possible???  Holds to 30

3*-5 Now a break and serve first in the 5th might be nice! 0-15 .. 0-30 .. 15-30 .. 15-40 .. Break!

Set Montanes. 2-2. That break will hopefully set the tone for the 5th!! If Robert's head drops again and he remembers how tired he is then it could be 6-1!! Trainer for Monty again!! If it works like last time then crack on son!!

0-15 what a start!! 15-15 .. Market starting to drop here folk trying to get on Monty! 30-15 and it's 1.40 when it was 1.52 at 0-0!! Not that I'm complaining! 40-15(1.34) .. 40-30(1.37) .. Holds (1.35)

0*-1 Give us a Kit Kat!!!! I want a bumper pay day please!! I could green for £500 right now! 0-15 .. C'mon .. 15-15 .. 30-15 .. 40-15 ... 40-30 side to side and you win the point Albert! .. Deuce yes just like that! .. FFS up the middle you lose! GP #3 .. Holds.

1-1* Albert really should have done better there. Needs another quick strong hold and get the pressure right back on! Oops someone miss clicked took Monty out to 1.64 there!! FFS from 30-0 to 30-30 to not mess this up!! 40-30 .. Deuce!! .. Holy Shit BP!!! ..  BREAK WTF !!! Monty should be pissing this!!

2*-1 I have to stick with Montanes and take the consequences here. Robert is so poor that Monty should easily get that break back. He just need to focus!! Mind you that £500 even green I turned down is looking very appealing right now! Monty just needs to go side to side and he will win nearly every point! 30-40 TAKE IT!!!  BREAK!!!

2-2* Now that should be enough to break Robert's fight and wake Monty up sufficiently! 15-0 .. FFS DF 15-15 ... Sort it out Albert! .. 30-15 ACE LOL .. 30-30 FFS Monty .. GP TAKE IT!! .. Holds!

2*-3 Now for a break then!! Let's finish him right here right now!! Tempted to green again for £450 but I've come so far and I think I will green at the end of this game no matter the outcome! 0-15 .. 0-30 Let's be having it!!! .. 15-30 don't let him back in this game! .. 15-40 TAKE IT!!! .. 30-40 This time then?? Break!!!

2-4* That enough for me out at 1.12 for £1,029.12 on both.















Montanes wins 4-6 6-7 6-2 6-3 6-2
Profit: £1,029.12
