Dudi Sela v Stanislas Wawrinka

I fully expect Wawrinka to take this comfortably but can't believe I missed the start because I was on the phone. Came back to find Wawrinka with a BP on Sela's serve at 2-1* so I quickly lumped on at 1.24!!

Of course Sela Holds doesn't he!! LOL

2*-2 Now then Stan nice easy service game please! Hmm holds to 30 but got my heart racing a bit!!

3-2* Now for the break then? 15-30 c'mon Stan!! ... 30-30 ... 30-40 Take It!! ... Deuce ... GP ... Deuce ... GP ... Deuce ... BP #2!! This time? ... Pffft Deuce ... GP ... Holds. Oh STan :-(

3*-3 RIght a quick hold and let's get the pressure right back on Sela's serve please. Holds to 15.

4-3* Pressure please Stan.Hmmm Hold to love!!

4*-4 Don't stuff up now please. Holds to 30!!

5-4* break for the set then? 0-15 ... 0-30 ... 15-30 don't let him off again Stan!!...  FFS wild shot!! 30-30 ... SP TAKE IT!!! ... Pffft Deuce ... GP ... Deuce ... SP #2 ... FFS Deuce!!! ... GP ... Deuce ... Jeez how many chances does Stan need?? ... GP ... Really should be doing more on Sela's 2nd serve! ... Deuce ... C'mon just string 2 more points together!! ... DF for SP #3!!! ... Finally!! Set Wawrinka!! 6-4

Question now is whether to green out at 1.12? Stan has been in control all set and could have won a lot easier if he had taken a few more of his chances. I wouldn't back him at that price and I wouldn't lay him either if I wasn't already involved so I guess I'll let it ride a while.

Typical Wawrinka starts with 0-30 the time I decide not to green my bet!! 15-30 ... 30-30 ... Hold to 30.

1-0* A nice early break would be beneficial :-) Hold to Love!

1*-1 Jeez 0-30 Again!! What is Stan doing? 0-40!!! And we're back at the price I goyt in at! :-( Break!!! FFS why did I not green out at the end of the 1st set?

1-2* Oh well hopefully a temporary blip and he has been troubling Sela's serve in half his service games so plenty of chance to get back in this set. Holds to 15

1*-3 Sela has upped his level that's evident but the biggest difference to the 1st set is Warinka! He has started to look lethargic out there. Needs to hold well here as we're already above SP and it's only 1 break!! From 40-0 to 40-30 but he holds!!

2-3* Odds very high on Wawrinka here! 1.32 when a set up but a break down early in the 2nd!! That's only 1 or 2 ticks below SP! Punish the non believers Stan!! Holds to 30 :-(

2*-4 This time I want a love hold please! Put some pressure on Sela for the next game. 15-40 was not wanted Stan!! ... Deuce ... BP #3 ... Good hustle from Sela but ultimately it's Stan not playing the right shots that is letting him in here! ... Deuce ... GP ... Deuce ... BP #4 ... Break!!!

2-5* FFS Wawrinka has gone to sleep it would seem! I am switching at 1.62 here. Crazy price but not sure if Stan is interested anymore! LOL 0-15!! ... 40-15 ... 40-30 ... FFS Now we get to deuce!! SP #3 ... SET Sela 6-2.

Well as we go into the 3rd with Wawrinka to serve first I need evens to get out for nothing. I see the money is shifting back towards Warinka now which isn't a good sign!! My book stands at +2,271 Sela -2,273 Wawa!

Really could do with a break first game!! But knowing my luck in this match Stan will hold to love!! Stan holds to 30

1-0* Don't screw me over now Sela!! You have all the momentum and have been the far better player recently. A strong hold here will cast some doubts on Stan in the market. Holds to 15.

1*-1 Now then Dudi let's get at him this time and hopefully he'll fold! 0-15 C'mon!!! ... 15-15 ... 15-30 ... 2 more!! ... 15-40!!! TAKE IT!! I really should get out but let's see if he can take the break!! 2nd ... BREAK!!!!

Now I'm out!! Even green £746.13 on Both!!

Well I'm glad I did get out as Stan has broken straight back for 2*-2!!

Never in doubt!! Lol

Wawrinka Wins 6-4 2-6 7-5
