Doubles Tennis Tipping #17
CINCINNATI MASTERS SERIES




What is Doubles Tennis Tipping?

In the game, participants pick the winners of all doubles main draw matches and are placed in a knock-out system. That means each participant plays a different participant and whoever predicted the winner of most matches correctly, moves on to the next round. The same applies for doubles, but you're in a team format and your scores are combined.

Note:

- In case of a tie, a tie-breaker will decide who moves on to the next round.
New tie-break method: http://www.menstennisforums.com/showthread.php?t=114109

- In case a player (i.e. the actual ATP Player) retires in a match, this match will be counted as long as one point has been played. If players are replaced by a lucky loser after the start of Doubles Tennis Tipping, these matches will be cancelled.

How to send in picks:

Picks can be sent in as soon as the draws are ready. Remember, you pick a winner in every match! Picks should be sent by PM, so that your opponent does not know your picks. Picks should be titled: [DTT: ?, day #]. Picks can be sent in anytime until the beginning of play each day. If you're still in both singles & doubles, you use the same tips for both. No changes can be made after the play has started.

PRECAUTIONARY MEASURE

If the board goes down as has happened before, send your picks to trucul2008@hotmail.fr

Re: DTT Week 17: Cincinnati - Send your picks for Monday !!!

diego and trucul should send to me too of course!
Sure ;) I will send mine to you once I have prepared them (one hour remaining before matches start).

diego can send them to me also so that I can build diffs for his match against balloon.

Currently, players for which I don't have their picks:

trucul :eek:, diego36arg, Cuchitril (normal since sent to rvugt), quiron (normal since sent to rvugt), vmbf. :wavey:

Re: DTT Week 17: Cincinnati - Send your picks for Monday !!!

Quick update on vCash race of the week (the more points you get, the more you will receive vCash at the end of the week: vCash will be distributed proportionally to the number of pts you get. Overall vCash amount available this week will be based on number of pages at the end of the week in this thread multiplied by 20. For instance, there is currently 8 pages, so total vCash amount available is 160.

Current ranking is so far:

1. Drikke 3 pts
2. vamos israel 1 pt
2. juakos17 1 pt

Tonight, there will be 3 events:

- event #3: best pick of the day (with 3 points for the best pick and 1 for the second best pick).
- event #4: best quality pick of the day (with 3 points for the best pick and 1 for the second best). Quality pick is based on stats of picks at SR level. If tied, then will go to second quality pick and so on. If still tied, will be based on TT standard criteria.
- event #5: quizz at 23:15 CET ... A little bit more complicated than yesterday. 2 pts for the winner.

And a bonus event:
- if a player has correct score for any of the 2 matches played today, he will be awarded 5 vCash points. :p

Re: DTT Week 17: Cincinnati - quizz for vCash race on-going !!!

Since the inception of the ATP Tour in 1990, how many players did successfully win Singles and Doubles Masters Series Events the same year ?
Give their name and the name of their partner + the Event and the year.

Good Luck :wavey:
