I have 60 on backhand with 80 power. I just waited for the right chances and got lucky on a lot of risks. And for some reason if my character is named Sampras, I hit RT+LT forehands with good consistency (I think I missed 1) - must be a mental thing. The clay kind of helps me too - it gives me more time to set up.

You have 60 on backhand? oh my band, i thought u had 80 on backhand. Well, it doesnt matter, because you were very consitten with it, i hit a lo of nice risks off of it. I still would say its weak :wink:

You only made 9 U.E. You played a great match, nicely timed shots.

I played two matches against djarvik yesterday--and won both!

And I have finally discovered his weakness: alcohol! And lots of it! :lol:

Trust me...get him drunk and have him play a realistic setup against your 90/40 guy, and you can't lose! It's brilliant!

Muahahaha! :twisted:

Can we make this a new rule for the top 10?

Since i have been home this week thanks to a nasty bronchitus attack with strep throat. I have been able to play a lot.

I had match with moralspain today and won 6-4, 6-0. The first set was tight, but i held serve and he didnt see a break point. The second set, i guess he tried something different or my game stepped up because i converted on all 3 oppurtinites. I think he tried to change tactics, not sure.

Nice match, Moralspain

I played another Serve-volley marathon with tombs earlier. He used his kraijeck and me my well-balanced-but-leans-towards-SV guy. Tombs picked the court, he used Teranga clay court which must be the slowest one on the game lmao. It was breaks galore at first but we both got our serve rhythm in and i managed to get a couple of better returns than him in the end and won 6-4 6-4. I also never SV'ed on my 2nd serve after i got broke to love trying to lol it was just too slow.

Yeah, i tried to hit double risk shots all the time in the second set. I´m not use to hit them(6-0 :lol:

), but i think it´s a good thing to practice them in these exhibitions.
Well played Coolhand, you have a very consistent serve, hard to break you man

Played callofduty today and won 6-4, 7-6. I didnt realized he plays with 4 90's and 1 80. Well he is a hard server, but i broke early in the first and served it out. He got an early break point chance in the second but i erased it. I then had 7 break points in one game, but lefties have a nice add serve and he got me. In the tiebreak he risked the heck out of my serves and have to say that he got lucky on a couple but i got those back and won the match off a return tha hit the line and he wasnt able to get it back.

Nice match

it was a very good match from you. i had little problem with lag by my own serve,but my main problem was that i find not to my new returntiming about your good serve with 90 and 90 power. the break, to beginning of the match,bring me away from my gameplan.i tried to change my tactic. it was difficult to bring my power in my groundstrokes.
i dont know why.my b cross and A longline comes not with that power and angle as normally.also , you bring it all back with more power, so we had some good powerfull rallys .till end your victory was deserved- absolutly.good match coolhand
in this matches i learn the most for the future
hope we can play soon again :wink:

You seem to be improving rapidly all the time Coolhand, only a small matter of time before you break the top 20 and then who knows :wink:

by **fernado9t0rres** » Sun, 26 Apr 2009 02:48

does anybody want a game? with realistic setup or pro?

by **fernado9t0rres** » Sun, 26 Apr 2009 02:56

or even the normal 90/40 i don't mind.

Thanks Mack, i always felt like i learned something when i played an exhibition match with you. You were the most consistent baseliner i knew, and thats what i try to be, consistent.

Well i met Chederer on WT tonight and guess what, it was another heart pounding match. I won 4-2, 2-4. 10-7. The first set i got great returns in and finally broke him. The second i got a break point but he erased and then produced some fabulous returns to take the break and the set. The tiebreak i got 2 minibreaks early and he got 1 back but i held the other to serve it out.

Another great match man. We are supposed to play a full match later, i bet its another thriller.

Then i went and played SamL64 in exo. I dont what happened to my serve in between matches but i could barely get a first serve in which killed me. I served under 70% and i have no idea why. I won though 6-4, 6-4. I capitalized on 3 of 8 oppurtinites while he was 1 for 3. I figure my serve was a one time thing and it will be back next match.

Nice match Sam

Ok well i played joesixtoe tonight. People do not beleive him, when he say she doesnt risk, trust me. (nothing against you joesixtoe) On his serve i was double risking all night and they were going in, but only to see harder shot whizz right past me. I dont know what to do verse this guy to get a win. I lost 7-6, 7-5. It was a crazy game, good luck getting a winner verse him.

(i was just joking about him risking, he only had 1 error the whole match, im pretty sure he doesnt)

Wonderful match joesixtoe. Never had so much fun before

Then played him again and lost 7-6, 6-7, 6-3. Maybe he does use risk that would account for so many reasons the ball flys past you after hitting a double risk flat return. How else would you get power after one of your most powerful shots and he hits it back harder than before, i know timing is involved but i bet he has to risk

( no, he really does have amazign timing)
All i have to say about him, is he is a human wall, a human stone wall :lol:

Even though u will probably lose, the rallies yo will get into are truly great, its power rallies at their finest.
