Football.

Quiet football day today just 3 trades. 1 on an U21 match and 2 on the Irish game. I missed the second U21 match as I was sleeping. LOL.

Tennis.

I was a bit wary after yesterdays debacle. I did 2 trades on Wickmayer between games at the start of the match. I was fotunate to have eurosport on showing the Razzano v Bartoli match even though I wasn't trading the match or watching it. When I spotted the trainer wrapping Bartoli's leg I started to take interest. It was obvious as soon as Razzano served the first ball of the second set that Bartoli was toast. She couldn't move quick enough to get to the ball unless it came right to her. At this point the price on Razzano was 1.2 I chased it down over the next 2 points which took 30 seconds and finally managed to get in at 1.09 and out at 1.04 straight after. Seconds later Bartoli threw in the towel before I could even hedge and I got the full whack. I thought it was a bit naff that Bartoli refused to shake Razzano's hand. Bad sportsmanship. A quick trade on Sluiter was the end of my tennis trading for the day.
After yesterday I decided not to trade the Safina match even if she looked to be playing well. It was a good decision in hindsight.

So Nadal is out of wimbledon. Looks like Murray will have a clear run to the QF at least. A lot of people are declaring Fed the winner already but I think that's premature. Unless Nadal really is Fed's kryptonite and just by being in the same tournament makes him play crap. LOL.
Quiet day tomorrow. Tennis Finals and a few matches during the day, starting at 0730 for a japanese match. A busier evening on scandanavian matches though.

Keep it green everybody.
