Tipping #120 ~ Dubai
Dubai, UAE - February 14 - 20 (Premier)


http://www1.pictures.zimbio.com/gi/WTA+Barclays+Dubai+Tennis+Championship+Day+hAegofU DWX_l.jpg

Welcome to Tipping Dubai, the first Premier 5 tournament of the season! This is the 120th Tipping tournament and 5th in 2011.

Past Finals

2010: nevetsslim def. *Jean*
2009: Marco-Alize def. Tatinovic


How to Play

If you still don't know what Tipping is, it is like Tennis Tipping but different. You don't play other people and you don't have to tip the score which makes it an easier game to play. Everyone can play!

Playing Tipping is very easy. I will post the schedule every day and then you just tip who you think will win. Just type "in" to play (this will make my life easier but if you forgot to post "in" this is not the end of the world).

e.g If the schedule was...
Ivanovic vs Sharapova
V. Williams vs S. Williams

This is how you would tip...
Ivanovic
V. Williams

It is only main draw singles matches.

If there's 1 point played in a match then the match counts (walkover doesn´t count).

Pick for each match should be posted before the scheduled start of that match.

For the final match you will also need to guess how many games will be played. This will work as a tiebreaker.

Do NOT edit your post. If you want to change your picks do it in a new post. Edited posts will make all your picks invalid.

Scoring

First Round = 1 point per correct tip.
Every additional round = one point more than for the previous round, per correct tip.

How to Solve Ties

1. The player who guessed the winner.
2. The player who is closest in games guessed.
3. The player who posted the fastest post in the final. If no one posted in the final go backwards to the semis and so on.
4. The player who got the most correct picks in the semi final. If the same, move backwards to quarterfinal and so on.

Bonus Points (Premier 5)

Aside from the points that you accumulated during the tournament, bonus points will be added for the Top 8 scorers.

W: 160
F: 120
SF: 80
QF: 60

The Rankings

Your best 15 results the past 52 weeks will count towards your ranking. There are no mandarory tournaments.

Conditions were tough in the first day of Tipping as everybody struggled to get it right. Only 6 out of 31 players managed to get more than half of today's winners.

Special mention goes to Beesley and Spain07 for achieving the highest score of 6/8. Well done! :yeah:

If there's any mistake in the standings, please feel free to tell me, thanks. :)

Is there any reason we can't tip the Vinci/Vesnina and Safarova/Zakopalova matches by the way? :shrug:

If we're allowed to tip them I choose Vinci and Safarova.

I don't think there is a rule regarding this.
When we first started playing tipping, we actually tipped by rounds and not by days.
But in order to make the manager's task easier,we started to tip by days.
Also, there are sometimes changes in the OOP, so it is not too wise to tip 2 days before the actual matches.

Is there any reason we can't tip the Vinci/Vesnina and Safarova/Zakopalova matches by the way? :shrug:

If we're allowed to tip them I choose Vinci and Safarova.

It seems like KittyTennis was the first one to notice those two matches and her picks were posted only 7 hours ago. I guess this is because of an OOP change that nobody knew about.

Let us consult ma re on whether those two matches should be counted or not. :)

Pennetta, Peer, and Errani matches have started. Sorry :)
But your other picks will still be counted.

^^ Eventhough there is no official rule regarding this, it is common practice that we don't count matches that were a result of sudden changes to the order of play.

If this change would've happened closely after the original order of play came out (like an hour or two after), before many people have posted their picks, we might have considered to go with this new OOP and inform players about it. But if we would make these matches valid, it wouldn't be fair to the majority of the players. Things like this also happened in Fed Cup - team captains suddenly changing players right before the match - and I haven't counted such matches there for points either.

So let's not count them eventhough there's no rule, and I'll make sure it's official as of the next tournament.

Ok, thanks ma re. :yeah:

Vinci/Vesnina and Safarova/Zakopalova will not be counted.

Ok. Thanks for clarifying it. I was a bit confused. :)

The struggle continues at Day 2 of the Dubai Tennis Championships. Six competitors showed great form as they correctly picked 10 winners out of 14. Due to some scheduling problems, the Vinci/Vesnina and Zakopalova/Safarova matches were not counted. :)

As of now, we have an 8-way tie for the first place and the rest are not far behind.
What will happen at Day 3 of Tipping Dubai? Send you picks now! :cheer:

In Day 3 of Tipping Dubai, 32 points were up for grabs in what might be the most important part of the tournament. All second round matches were played and the 4 people who did well ended up at the top of the rankings.

Buitenzorg and Ralph214 obtained 30 points while ronim1 and KittyTennis had 28.

However, the battle is far from over and it's still anyone's game. Send your picks for the 3rd round matches and may the best tipper win! :)

Broseghini takes the lead in Day 4 of Tipping after scoring 18 points. Equally impressive today are *Jean*, Drake1980, and digor who got 6 out of 8 3rd round matches. With only 3 days to go before the tournament ends, the next matches will get harder and harder to tip and only the best will survive. :)

In Day 5 of Tipping Dubai, Buitenzorg, *Jean*, and Drake1980 muscled their way to the top of the rankings by getting 12 out of 16 points. Ma re, Wrongagain, and Sasja also tipped 3 out of 4 quarterfinal matches correctly.

However, nobody is still assured of winning since the competition is tough. Many players are within striking distance to take away the title as Day 6 approaches. Tomorrow will decide the true contenders of the prestigious Premier 5 tournament. See you again for another exciting day of Tipping! :)
