Decided to make a blog post about my trading yesterday just because it is something to remember.

If you followed me for some time maybe you remember there is one player on the ATP I called money making machine :) Why ? Well, it's just because I am lucky to make very nice profits with this man on courts ;)
Yes, I am talking about Mikhail Youzhny. It happens I have a plan before match start at some occasions and yesterday my plan was very simple....Lay the winner of 1st set (=back loser) in match Simon-Youzhny. Mikhail did not make me disappointed LOL. Youzhny wins 1st set...ok. Time to put some money on Simon now and just wait. This time I decided to let it go, no scalping, no trading during games, just try to relax and watch the game. Simon playing OK and with 1st serve about 70% it's looking very nice for me ;) I expected better odds when putting my money on Simon after first set but maybe market was scared by head2head between these players. (7-1 to Youzhny before this match) Well, I don't care about H2H at this occasion.

I have no idea what happened to Youzhny or if it was Simon playing amazing tennis. To me it looks like something strange was going on in Youzhny's head LOL



Some stats from this match says alot, in 3rd final set Simon's 1st serve goes down from 73 (2nd set) to very low 47%. Youzhny's 1st serve 76% and still he lost 6-1 in final set !!! LOL

Look at break points won, Simon 6/6, Youzhny 3/13, it makes a difference :) It was a great trading match ....I don't like to see red numbers on my ladder and it's why I decided to hedge while Simon was still in total control in final set. It's never over before the match point is won in tennis (or with Azarenka on court there may be retirement at any time LOL)  ;)
I am going to enjoy my Sunday now.


Good luck everyone !
