I don't really find any value to back favourites at the begining of grand slams, so although I feel Karlovic a sure winner @1.2 I opted out of it and went for something a bit more even.
Andreas Seppi - Marc Gicquel @1.61, 1/2 stake
Hoping that Seppi's victory over Blake wasn't a fluke but a show of form, so I'm quite pleased with the value on this pick.
Guillermo Canas - Albert Montanes @2.55, 1/2 stake
Although neither are grass specialists Montanes is in form coming off a victory at Estoril and a good 1st round show, so overall I reckon it's good value.
I also considered Almagro and Tipsarevic but it was the bad odds on these two that tipped the scales in favour of my today's picks.
Good luck Seppi and Montanes!
P. S. By the time I got to place the bets odds on Seppi went down to 1.61 which, well, sucks...
Thanks Andy for the two winning tips today....Good choices!
Got £10 on each of yours dulence, Montanes is now only 2.35 though think you killed the odds lol, lets hope this £20 bonus goes far, fingers crossed for tmrw
Well if I killed it with a €15 stake then wow! Although looking at betfair's price chart now it looks like bet24 prices were a bit off for a while. Ah well, guess I should've checked if they were gonna drop.
Im on both for £10 a time, im going to stick to £10 flat bets and see if I come out of it above or below my deposit. (I didnt get a bonus but in theory I am up £21.68 on what would have been a £40 deposit, in actual fact im up £1.68 on my £60)
What is everyone elses reading of this? I got the email a few days back and originally read it as if you placed a bet on those days but now wondering is that just the draw date and do we email now? Not much chance of winning and I do already have a Wii but I am sure that they still go for reasonable bucks on eBay!!!

Well I've had a handful of punts on the outright market at Wimbledon at Bet24, so I've entered the prize draw... gotta be in it to win it I got an email back to say I'd been added to the draw.
Entered as well from a punt i did yesterday. Hopefully that will count. I am assuming the bet can placed on any wimbledon match not just on the dates stated.
Also my bet was voided so we shall see if i that still counts towards the wagering...
