I would like to watch this take place but you will get severely owned IMO.

I settled the livb bet because of an injury. We might do something similar some other time.

Most recent update: I played a guy who was a top 300 ATP pro (within the last ten years) for 2000 euro. I started my service games 40-love; he started his service games love-30. We played one set. I had five points in a row to win it but couldn't convert.

Any particular reason why you started your service games with more of an advantage than his?

tbh i think it makes perfect sense ... playing vs a top 300 ATP pro he's probably got a good enough serve where u wont easily break so he can give u love-30 edge. BA's serve is prob nothing the pro hasnt seen before so him giving him a 40-love edge is reasonable.

I know BA is pretty good in tennis, so i think this is a good bet overall... i dont know how good BA's serve is though

I had a choice: I could take 40-love on either my serve or his. I'm glad I took it on my serve. I broke once; he broke twice. Score was 7-5. I was up 5-3, with him serving 15-40. When I was serving at 5-4, 40-15, I hit the sideline with a strong first serve, but he got it back and won the point. At 40-30, he hit a drop shot winner from the baseline (on red clay). At 5-5, we had only played 30 points or so, but fatigue was an issue, because he was running me insanely. BA

Arm and shoulder no signs of trouble anymore? That's good

Patrik and I are chopping up the 100k bet into 4 matches of 25k each. That's the even money bet where he spots me love-30 on his serve. We're going to play the first one at ITC in Vegas during the Main Event. Sadly, I heard ITC ran into $ difficulties and had to convert most of their courts to indoor soccer. They only have two left.

We made the even money bet before we played last year. I'll take 3-1 (must post) for anyone who wants his side.

As props go, I'll also bet the women again this year, but not even money (I'll bet that a women wins an event this year, excluding WSOPE. Other side must post and lay 1.25-1). The even money action got taken up too quickly last year.
