No value in the odds for today's match.

No picks for today

Hi everybody. I decided to skip Sevilla - Dinamo match. Margins are set realistic. I'm sure that Sevilla is capable to trash Dinamo, but they proved in Zagreb that trashing their opponents is not of of their desires. "Main" margins - AH margin at -2 and O/U margin at 3.0 isn't attractive enought for me, alhtough - if I'd had to - I'd take (-2) SEVILLA and OVER 3.0 GOALS. But, I don't have to so I won't.

Today's pick

Cibalia - (+0.5) RNK SPLIT 1.96@12Bet, SBO

Good weekend + today's pick at 3 PM

Btw, Not a good Sunday. Croatia beat Finland but only 1-0, which means one of our bets was void, and the other one - lost. Croatia took the early lead (18th minute), was much better team (Finland didn't had a proper chance), but it wasn't meant to be.

World Cup Qualifiers

Sorry for the delay. Still, you have 24 hours to take the bets.

WCQ: Finland - (-1) CROATIA 1.80@Pinnacle
Finland - Croatia OVER 2 GOALS 1.65@Pinnacle

Bet for Sunday

Please tune in tomorrow at 4PM. Croatia plays at Finland and we might have a bet.

I decided not to get involved in Kosovo-Croatia match, which Croatia won 6-0. Sorry to all of the people who were waiting for the pick

Weekend recap

Weekend started great - Rijeka won at Istra 2:0 on Friday (+0.94), then Lokomotiva won at RNK Split (+1.07) and when Osijek took the lead in the 1st half - I thought - this might be a very good weekend indeed. But, Osijek conceeded in the 45th minute, and failed to score from 3 great chances in the 2nd half. So, we lost a point there - and it should've been a void. Osijek wasn't brilliant, but they were better team. And, then on Sunday - partially because of the rain - both matches ended 0:0 - and we had 2 over bets... A point lost this weekend - not quite a disaster.

Croatia plays at Kosovo on Thursday, so tune in on Wednesday at 3PM. Btw, no tennis bets tomorrow, but handball Champions League and regional basketball league (ABA) started, and we might get involved rather in a week or two.

CFL weekend

We're getting involved in all 5 matches.

Istra - (-0.75) RIJEKA 1.94@Pinnacle

Weekend picks coming today at 3 PM

My little daughter is celebrating her 2nd birthday today, so I'll be busy preparing the party. CFL picks will be published at 3 PM today.

Both bets landed

Juventus comfortably beat Dinamo 4:0 (2:0 at HT), which means both bets landed, which also means we have 4/4 in the CL this season so far.

I'll be sending weekend picks on Friday 3PM, I need some rest from tennis bets.

Champions league on Tuesday

CL: Dinamo – (-1.5) JUVENTUS 1.90@Pinnacle

CL: Dinamo – Juventus OVER 2.5 GOALS 1.72@SBO

Injury time

We were quite unlucky yesterday - Istra scored an equaliser in the injury time, so we lost a point. But, Dinamo plays vs Juventus, and we'll have a bet or two. Tune in at 3 PM.

What can I say? Season is fairly profitably so far. I'm in the middle of the tennis-bad run, but since I already earned some points in 2nd part of September - it seems that "all the money I earn betting on football, I loose betting on tennis." But, it's far too early for conclusions. 

Everything

Hi everybody. Mad week is behind me, there was no usual Friday mail, but I decided not to get involved in yesterday's match. We'll have one bet only this weekend, and you can check it out at 3 PM. I'm finally done with stats update as well.

Btw, last weekend was good considering football, and bad considering tennis bets. But, I'm sure you already know that.

But, I finally decided that I won't be getting involved in today's tennis matches. Ana Konjuh and Donna Vekic play in the qualifiers, Borna Coric vs Benoit Paire in Cincinati. But, who knows - if they win, we might have a bet on their tomorrow matches.
Here are the waterpolo bets:

France - Croatia UNDER 18.5 GOALS 1.93@Pinnacle

Short recap and more bets coming

Another good day, with 3 of 4 bets landing. Nigeria demolished Croatia in basketball tournament (90-76), and after wins vs Spain and Brazil, Croatia might be out of quarterfinals, it might ended 4th and play vs USA in the QF, but it might also end up as high as 2nd place... The last match vs Lithuania will decide.

Croatia managed to beat France in handball "El Classico" by one goal (France missed the penalty in the final seconds), but too many goals scored. But - when we have 3 of 4, I can't complain - if only every day could be like this one.

Let me remind you - we have 3 bets for today published on Friday, and since waterpolo match Croatia - France is scheduled for tonight, tune in at 12:30 CET for today (we might also have a tennis pick or two).

Bets coming in 3 hours

So far, Croatian waterpolo team didn't play well, while Italian did. And yesterday, Croatia played the best match of the tournament, and Italy (and they looked really good so far) - the worst. Nothing to complain about 10-7 Croatia win – except for the fact they'd be satisfied with 9-7 as well, and our UNDER bet would be won.

We lost 2 points there, but Cibalia returned after being 2:0 down at Rnk Split, so we won CFL bet. The Olympic Bets for today are coming at 1 PM CET.

6 bets and short recap

Very good day at the office, with 4 of 6 bets won.

Marin Cilic won the first set in tie-break, and lost the other two. He lost his serve in 2nd set when it was 4:4, and when Monfils served for the set, Cilic had a break ball – and after a long rally – he made an unforced error. If he had won that point, maybe both of aour bets would be won, and not only the OVER bet.

Both handball and basketball team of Croatia won their respective matches, and since we had a margin on our side, and Croatia was in the lead in both matches since the beginning, it was pretty much easy to watch. However, we lost basketball UNDER bet, bot won handball UNDER bet. But, non stop continues – here are the bets for today.

Here are the football bets for the weekend, and a pick for today's waterpolo match.

Btw, we might have another bet on tennis (Ivo Karlovic plays at Los Cabos ATP), but first he has to beat Granollers-Pujol. Tune in this afternoon, and Saturday morning as well – as we'll probably have a handball or/and basketball bet(s).

Recap and more bets coming

Just a few sentences about last night's matches. Both matches between Argentina and Croatia were more than tight – Croatia somehow managed to win in handball (by only one goal), while O/U margin was completely wrong as well, so both bets won. Basketball match was decieded by too many Croatian technical fouls (and that's one of the reasons why our UNDER bet was lost). However, 3 bets won and 1 lost – that's not the result I'll complain.

I updated the stats – football bet brough 5.33 points profit, tennis 0.66 points, and other sports (basketball, handball and waterpolo) brought additional 1.93 points profit (if we take a look at every single sport, only basketball produced loss – 0.28 points). Total profit: 7.92 points.

Alotgether, we already had 54 bets, 54 points staked: 33 won – 1 void – 20 lost.

ROI is at 14,7%, and since our advised bank is 20 points – is 39.6 %.

I must say I'd be staisfied with the ROI like this at the end of the season.

I'll publish detailed updated stats (and all the bets of the season) on Monday, August 15th. Since the first match we had a bet was played on July 15th, I decided that that will be the main „Recap-day“.

Btw, you can expect bets for tonight soon - at noon CET.

Recap + picks coming

This night, we were more than unlucky. In the equal match, Croatia scored the winning goal 8 seconds before the end. In the 1st round match, everything went like I expected, and both of our waterpolo bets were won.

First match of Croatian handball team produced enough goals, but Qatar was much better team from the beginning and the deserved to win, so a small loss there.

I suppose you know that Croatia surprisingly beat Spain in the first round of the basketball tournament, but the UNDER bet was won, so small loss there as well.

Tennis brought 3 points loss, but we were unlucky once more, as Borna Coric lost 6:4 and 7:6, just enough to loose our bet. Both bets involving Marin Cilic weren't even close.

And, last - but obviously not least, 2 football bets were won, one lost, so football and waterpolo were the only profitable sports.

I'll publish stats of the season so far later today or tomorrow, and you can expect additional Olympics picks today at 2 PM CET.

Mideweek recap, pick(s) coming soon

Great midweek, with all the bets making some profit.
Two Dinamos played boring match, just like I expected (Zagreb won 1:0),
Hajduk prooved that is much better than Olexandriya (3:1), and that defense is the worst part of the team, while Rijeka said goodbye to Europe (although they were 1:0 and 2:1 ahead), just like I expected.
So, 2.36 points profit - not bad at all.

I'll be publishing CFL pick(s) for the weekend at noon CET.

Croatia's national teams in Rio will be in action this weekend, so you expect more picks at 3 PM CET.

Picks coming soon

Hello everybody!

Busy week starts today. We'll have a pick for today, but you can expect the picks for Thursday's matches as well today. From now on - I'll be announcing time of picks in CET, so if you're in the UK - it's minus one hour. So, today you can expect them at noon CET.

Recap of the past week

If I decided to take all the bets I mentioned, 2 bets would be won (making more than 3 points of profit), one would be half and 2 completely lost (-2.5 points), so not much of a harm done. Specially if we know that Cibalia - Inter match ended up 3:3 (and that's definitely not a result which I expect when I bet on draw), while Hajduk scored the only goal in the injury time.

But, let's take a look at midweek disaster. The only bet that was completely won was surprising Hajduk's 3:0 away win, but since I thought Olexandriya was much better team, that match brought us small loss.

Lokomotiva and Vorskla played a boring match, in which Lokomotiva was better team, but still - 0.4 points won there - but 1 point lost, as I expected at least 2 or 3 goals.

The match that cost us the most was between two Dinamos. Of course Tbilisi had a chance to score in 89th minute (if the match ended 2:1, both of our bets would be won), but goalkeeper saved it brilliantly.

I definitely won't cry, as 2.5 points minus after a good start of the season can be won back soon. We have a busy week in front of us, as 2nd matches are scheduled, and the Rio Olympics are right ahaed of us, with Croatian national team competing in basketball, handball, waterpolo and tennis, while I really don't see me getting involved in the remaining sports. But, who knows...

No bets this weekend

If I had to choose a bet for each match, I would pick:
(-1.5) Dinamo, draws at Cibalia and Osijek' home matches, and (-0.25) away wins of Hajduk and Lokomotiva. But I don't so I won't.
More about horrible midweek on Monday...

Tennis bets Wednesday July 27th

Two points lost on football, as match between 2 Dinamos ended 2:0 (which is the only possible result that could bring us -2 points), while we made 0.6 points profit as 2 of 3 our tennis bets were won. Croatian clash in Toronto tonight, which means there's a possibility of another tennis bet tomorrow, and we're getting involved in female tennis for the first time as well (match is scheduled for 1 AM GMT)

Last week recap + bets coming

We were few minutes away from a 100-percent midweek, but a goal that Frank Ohandza scored for Hajduk's win in 90th minute made Hajduk – (+1) Iasi bet a void. On Wednesday, Dinamo beat Vardar 3:2 (they were goal behind twice, they scored first 2 goals from the spot – and first penalty was more than doubtful), while the winning goal came after deflection. But, both of our bets on that match were won comfortably. Lokomotiva beat RoPS easily, they had a player more for almost an hour, but after 2:0 (in 29th minute) they slowed down and we had to wait till 83rd minute to win a bet.

CFL weekend brought us 2 winning and 2 losing bets. Slaven Belupo beat Cibalia 3:2, but the match with couple of spectacular goals just coudn't end up under 2.50 goals. Osijek won 2nd consecutive away match, while Lokomotiva and Rnk Split played the worst match of the season, which ended 0:0, so a small loss on CFL weekend.

Everything is well known about Ivo Karlovic's tennis. He's the tallest player on tour and he serves great. And he also loses his serves very rarely. He didn't lost serve vs Baker, Sock and Johnson, but he did in the final vs Gael Monfils twice. But, as he won the 1st set, +2 games Asian Handicap margin proved to be enough to win this bet.

Ivo plays at Toronto this week, as well as Borna Coric (who beat another Croatian player Ivan Dodig in the first round), while Mirjana Lucic Baroni passed the 1st round in WTA Montreal (her second round match is scheduled for tomorrow, so tune in aroun 11 AM GMT, no matter on the outcome of Karlovic's and Coric's matches). We're getting involved in today's tennis matches as well, so tune in again at 11 AM GMT.

Recap of the previos season and intro for this one

It took me some time, but there it is – lessons learned from the previous distaster season and intro for the new one, that already started.

2015/16 season stats: 

113 picks - 113 points staked

-10.96 point loss

51 won - 6 void - 56 lost

-9.7% ROI

-54.8% ROC

(advised bank: 20 points)

What have I learned? I'm definitely sure that I was giving too much attention to the every single article I read. I was trying too have all the possible info, but in some matches as a result I couldn't see the forrest for the trees.

I was also spending too much time on writing my previews – which are not THAT important, obviously – as the correct picks!

We were also quite unlucky in more than a few matches, but I really don't think that anyone will benefit if I list the matches in which „we“ conceeded a goal in the injury time. It's just the part of the sports, and I'd be definitely loosing nerves once again – and that's not necessary, not at all.

So, what has changed this season? I definitely decided that I'll be publishing all the football picks for the weekend on Friday. Why? Well, as you would assume, I love my two little daughters very much, and the time I'm spending with them during the weekends is just precious. And since this season this is just a blog, so no strings attached, I'm just doing it to prove myself (and to my ex-subscribers, at least to those who care) that the last season was just something that's happening. I'll still be watching as all the matches I can, I'll be watching highlights of each match more than once and I'll definitely know which players are suspended and injured. But, no previews.

How come I decided to add picks for tennis, and later on, the other sports in which Croatian athletes compete? Well, I'm a die hard sports fan. And I was training tennis when I was a kid, and I definitely (theoretically) know everything I need to know about tennis. Tennis is not that hard to cover for the obvious reason – there's only two players to analyze (or 2 doubles). I'll be publishing picks only in the matches in which Croatian players are involved, and only in the ATP tournaments (ATP 250, 500 and 1000) and Grand Slams (no challangers or futures, as in some cases limits on the matches in these tournaments are even lower than on the CFL. Can you believe that's possible? I'll be mostly focused on the mens' singles, which means only the matches of Marin Cilic, Ivo Karlovic and Borna Coric, sometimes mens' doubles (as Ivan Dodig with Brazilian Marcelo Melo makes one of the best doubles of the world), sometimes

ladies' singles and never ladies' or mix doubles.

What about the other sports? We have Olympics in Rio really soon, Croatia has team in basketball, handball and waterpolo, and Sports Illustrated thinks that we'll get as much as 10 medals. I'm not yet sure how often will I get involved with the remaining sports, but if I do, those will be available at Pinnacle or SBO.

And one last thing – sometimes we'll have a pick(s) even on Saturday or Sunday (not CFL, only tennis and other sports). I have to go to work on at least 3 or 4 Saturdays or Sundays a month, and sometimes I have nothing to do, so I can analyze tennis or basketball.

So, that's about it. I'll be sending the recap of the successfull midweek and hopefully successfull weekend on Monday or Tuesday.

And we'll have a pick or two for today's Karlovic - Johnson match, I'll publish them on 12 PM GMT.

First weekend recap and more

First weekend of the CFL brought 3 results I got right – Slaven Belupo beat Inter Zapresic 2:0 (it was 0:0 in the first 80 minutes, 2nd goal was scored deep in the injury time). Dinamo managed to beat Lokomotiva 3:1, although Fiolic scored an opener for Lokomotiva. Rijeka comfortably beat RNK Split 3:0, they scored the early opener and were much better team the whole match. So, 3 of 3 for the opening of the season.

I don't know what do you think about tennis (and betting on tennis), but I can say I was pretty unlucky. Marin Cilic was 3:0 ahaed in the 5th set vs Jack Sock (when OVER bet was already won), and insted of easily winning the match, he managed to lost his 2nd consecutive „best-of-5“ match in which he was leading 2:0 (he lost vs Roger Federer in Wimbledon recently – and before that, he NEVER lost a match in which he was 2:0 ahead). In the 2nd match of the day, John Isner won first two sets the same way – he was serving first, he was 5:4 ahead, and then made the only break of serve of the set. I'm sure that Coric would won at least one tie-break, if he saved his serve, which would be quite enough for a winning OVER bet.

However, Croatia won 3:2 (after being 2:0 down – first Marin Cilic and Ivan Dodig beat Bryan brothers), then Cilic beat Isner 3:0, while Coric was much better than Sock and won 3:1. Croatia will play vs France at home in the semi-final of the Davis Cup, and I'm really looking forward to that match.

I forgot to mention that I'll be using the same bank as the last year (20 points), while my stats will be separated – for football, tennis and other sports together.

However, Dinamo and Vardar will play 2nd leg of UCL preliminary round on Wednesday, while Hajduk and Lokomotiva will play their matches on Thursday. I'll be publishing all the bets on Wednesday around 11 AM GMT.

New season starts today

Hello everybody!

Last season was the worse for me since I started betting. But, seasons like that happen to everyone, and since the new season of the CFL starts today, I think it's time to write few sentences. If we were a bit more lucky last season (I'm talking about the part of the season that Skeeve was in charge, if only two goals weren't scored in the deep in the injury time, last season would be almost break-even as two bets on draws would bring more than 7 points of profit). But, that's not important right now.

This season will be different, as there'll be no previews - I'll just let you know which bets I took. I'll still be taking them at 1 point flat stakes. But I decided to include bets on other sports involving Croatian teams and sportsmen (mostly tennis, sometimes basketball or some other sports as well - Olympics begins in 3 weeks).

On top of that - I'll be posting all the picks for the weekend on Fridays.

So, here we go.

FRIDAY:

TENNIS - Davis Cup: USA - Croatia

Jack Sock - (-2 GAMES) MARIN CILIC 1.84@Pinnacle - 1 point
Jack Sock - Marin Cilic OVER 42,5 GAMES 2.04@Pinnacle - 1 point
John Isner - Borna Coric OVER 38,5 GAMES 1.85@Pinnacle - 1 point

FOOTBALL - CFL
Slaven Belupo - Inter Zapresic UNDER 2,5 GOALS 1.88@Pinnacle - 1 point

SATURDAY
RNK Split - (-0.5) RIJEKA 2.16@Pinnacle - 1 point

SUNDAY
(-1) DINAMO - Lokomotiva 1.42@Pinnacle - 1 point

The end of season

Frustrating season has come to an end. I'll write another text about it, in a few weeks, I just need time distance after the worst season ever. In the meantime, in the last round, only one official bet.

Lokomotiva – Dinamo OVER 3.25 GOALS 2.12@SBO

Dinamo is champion, Lokomotiva secured ELQ and I expect relaxed match with lots of goals.

This is the list of bets I'll take – not for the full stake, as the only question before the final round is who will be at the 5th place – RNK Split or Inter Zapresic.

This is short list – bets I'll take, but not at full stake:

(-0.5) INTER – Osijek 1.81@SBO

Lokomotiva – (-1) DINAMO 1.82@SBO

(-1.5) RIJEKA – Istra 1.79@SBO

Rijeka – Istra OVER 3 GOALS 1.71@SBO

NK Zagreb – (-0.25) HAJDUK 2.11@SBO

Saturday, May 7th

CFL: Lokomotiva – (-0.5) ZAGREB (5.68@Pinnacle)

If Lokomotiva wins vs Zagreb, they'll secure 4th spot which brings ELQ. But, they're not in good form (they lost 3 of the last 4 matches), and Zagreb is still hoping. After all, If Zagreb wins today, RNK Split will be motivated for sure to win away at Istra (Lokomotiva plays vs Dinamo in the last round, which means Split still has chance to reach the 4th spot). And Istra plays at mighty Rijeka in the last round, while Zagreb will play at home vs unmotivated Hajduk. And while there's hope… Zagreb has 2 wins in the last 3 matches, and they had 0:0 vs Slaven Belupo in the last round (then they conceeded a goal and fell apart). It may look like a long shot, but Zagreb players are fully motivated, and I'm sure they'll do their best to win this match.

I can definitely see a low (or no) scoring draw in Osijek – Rijeka match, but since both clubs secured their positions, and some youngsters will get their chance, I just have to stay out of this one.

We might have a bet or 2 tomorrow as well, so tune in at 11 AM GMT.

Sunday, May 1st

CFL: Osijek – Hajduk DRAW (3.16@Pinnacle)

Hajduk will end this season on 3rd place – and Osijek on 8th, that's a fact. And although they' could be quite relaxed, they won't. Hajduk is taking this one seriously – they travelled by plane (and they were travelling by bus the whole season). Osijek is always tough away game for them (only 1 win in the last 10 matches – but as much as 4 draws). Both teams have selection problems, specially in the offensive line up. Osijek hasn't score for 5 rounds, Hajduk has 20 clean sheets this season, and a goalless draw is the most probably outcome here (that was the result of the last 3 Hajduk's away matches and 3 of 4 last Osijek matches). Middle margin set at 2.0 on O/U market is more than real, so no value there.

CFL: (-1) RIJEKA - RNK Split (1.61@Pinnacle)

CFL: Rijeka - RNK Split UNDER 3.0 GOALS (1.59@Pinnacle)

I was surprised to see odds coming my way, but that's the case and I just have to take this bet. Although Rijeka has some offensive selection problems (Tomasov and Gavranovic), and although RNK Split is tough defensive minded team, I'm sure Rijeka will win at least 1:0 (2:0 is the most probable result, if you ask me). Bezjak and Balaj should be enough to solve RNK Split. Rijeka still has theoretically chance to be the champion, coack Kek says that they want all 9 points till the end, and after all - they're undefeated at home this season (11 wins and 5 draws). Btw, Rijeka won all 3 H2H matches this season: 2:1 twice and 2:0 once.

Recap and more pick(s) coming

Horrible day at the office – Zagreb – Slaven Belupo played an equal match for the first 80 minutes, then SB scored the first and then Zagreb fell apart. Dinamo scored an early goal, crated lots of chances in a match that looked like „today – Dinamo will be training offense, and Istra – defense“. Obviously that guests weren't quite bad at it. However, situation on the table is clear (unless some kind of miracles happen) – Zagreb is relegated, Istra is in the play-offs, Dinamo is the champion once again, Rijeka and Hajduk will play in the EL qualifiers, as well as Lokomotiva (Dinamo will probably win the Cup), Split is 5th, Osijek is 8th – and the only remaining question is – will Inter keep the 6th place, or Slaven Belupo will catch them. We will have some picks today and in the remaining two rounds.

Saturday, April 30th

CFL: (-0.5) ZAGREB – Slaven Belupo (1.89@Pinnacle, 1.88@SBO, 12Bet)

2016 is the year of Slaven Belupo's biggest success – they reached the Cup final (ok, they did beat Aston Villa in 2001 in Intertoto Cup, but this is much more important, I'd say). The final (one match only, on neutral pitch in Osijek is scheduled for May 10th), and since SB strongly holds 7th position – their mind is on the Cup final, no doubt about that. They have more than a few injured players, another couple of doubtful, and I'm sure that coach Kopic (who was on Zagreb's bench last season) won't risk anything, as he wants all the players fit for the May 10th.

If Zagreb started to play like this a bit earlier (1:0 defeat at mighty Dinamo, 2:0 win vs RNK Split and 4:1 win away at Istra), their chances to stay in the league would be much better. But, still – 3 rounds before the end and 6 points behind Istra, who holds 9th position (relegation play-off spot), seems possible to catch. Istra plays at Dinamo today, so if Zagreb beats SB – they'd be only 3 points behind, 2 rounds before the end, and much easier schedule than Istra's. On top of that, one of Zagreb's 3 wins this season was vs SB (who has only one away win this season, scored 13 goals and conceeded 27 in 16 away matches).

CFL: (-2) DINAMO – Istra (1.74@Pinnacle)

Dinamo – Istra OVER 3 GOALS (1.83@Pinnacle, 1.82@SBO)

Dinamo won 1:0, 2:1 or 3:2 this season as much as 13 times. But, they also have wins like 3:0, 3:1, 4:1 and 5:1. If we take a look at the results when Istra played at Dinamo in the past 5 seasons, we will find 3:1 once, 3:0, 6:0 and 4:1. Poor offensive performances have to stop (rather sooner than later – only 3 goals scored in 4 matches, 4 consecutive clean sheets), weather is just lovely today, if Dinamo wins, they'd confirm the title (4 points 2 rounds before the end – and their B-team Lokomotiva is waiting in the last round) – so, this is the key match!

Istra looks horrible – they conceeded 13 goals in the last 5 rounds and scored only one. Their end of the season will be full of stress, as tonight they might be only 3 points ahead of Zagreb (they have to play vs RNK Split and at Rijeka after this match, and they can't count on any points in those matches). I expect they'll be trashed. Why? If Hajduk, Inter and Lokomotiva can score 3, and Zagreb 4 (that all happened in April), I'm sure Dinamo can do (at least) that as well.  

Btw, we might have a bet tommorrow as well – so tune in at 11 AM GMT tomorrow.
