I played some random guy who was using 100 fh/bh and power, and beat him 7-6, but it was really stupid and frustrating, to be honest. A dog could play with 100 FH/BH and beat most human opponents.

I have this super awesome strategy that I've been using online against random people...I don't even bother with return games anymore cuz the returns in this game are so terrible...I just let the other guy ace me over and over and trust that I'll take it to a tiebreaker and win; I beat like 5 guys tonight like that, literally not even attempting a return. This game is stupid, I'm actually back to wanting to sell it back to a video game store.

Haha!...I think that's what Tsonga tried to do (a bit) against Ivo Karlovic at Wimby!...
He got his ass kicked but we can see that this "super awesome" tactic is beeing used in real too!...Well not like you did it but...
But that's really a "super awesome" funny tactic!...Your opponents must have been a bit disappointed!...I'll try it once!...Haha!...

played Moralspain earlier - just 2 sets as limited time. Lost 3-6, 6-7

really good match - seemed to forget how to time forehand in the first set - also struggled with serve...missed a LOT of first-serves.

there was also some good defending on both parts - Moral can very hard to get the ball past, even when you have the upper hand in a rally!!!!

anyways, once again - most excellent match and looking forward to our next!

played some random today i was my Sv player and he was roddick, he send me a message before hand saying 'dude your getting owned' and i did take a little gulp before the match. he comes out holds to love, pressure on, but so do i. next game i get him to deuce and i hold to love again. next game i break and hold to love again. i ended up winning 6-4 6-2 6-2, and the guy went mental saying i was 'lame' and only had one tactic of getting to the net. i then pointed out my 75 FH and 60 BH and 40 stamina and reminded him it was over 5 sets on clay. he didnt like it lol.

I find it's best to just ignore messages like that. 'Dude you're getting owned'? That doesn't deserve a reply besides a big fat W for you

i know said it somewhere-----i said that i remembered Mack2300 on WT when he played with 30 serve and i would always crush his serve--that sounded kinda rude(my apologies)
neways i played him in a few WT tour matches and i think he only had 40 serve and served really well with it...he can really back up his serve points by his baseline play he is a very good player better than me for sure because he beat me badly in all three matches

i also played Norberto earlier in a exhibition and he absolutely destroyed me he won 6-1 6-1--his serve is absolutely amazing and so are his returns would like to rematch this one :lol: :lol:

and i played Amazing Matheja for the first time we used the sim-pro setups--i won i think the score was 7-6 6-3...he is very solid from the baseline and has a really good serve---we had tons of good rallies and i enjoyed this match very much

played Baghdad Kebab he won 6-3 3-6 7-6---really awesome match--im not sure on the third set score maybe im wrong---we also had some great rallies and Baghdad is good all around and would enjoy playing another match anytime

Played Joesixtoe earlier in what was a rather interesting and fun match :lol: Joe won 2-6 6-3 7-6 but clearly wasn't happy with his game, in particular his serving. He made a number of double-faults in the 1st set as I took advantage to take a commanding lead. How ever his serve suddenly clicked in the 2nd set and even though I knew where he was going to serve, I just couldn't get a decent hit on the return :x He also picked up his own return game and broke me once to seal the set. The 3rd set consisted of the usual exciting baseline duels that Joe and I engage in and there wasn't much to seperate us till the tiebreak where Joe just finally took advantage of my serve once again.

just played brgerflipr at pacific life open, i was my Sv player and just about got through 6-4 1-6 6-3, after the 2nd set i thought i was a goner for sure but i held better in the 3rd and got the lucky break. t be fair brgerflipr Sv'ed most of the time even though he had only 40 volley and came up with some great ones, but his baseline stats meant it was always difficult to hold and in the 2nd i was getting returned and passed for fun.

stats were

me brger

1st serve % 79 82
1st serve win 79 63
2nd serve win 50 53
aces 11 0
double fault 0 2
winners 60 28
Ue's 7 4
break points 2/15 2/3
total points 89 78
