A solid pick that blew up in your face. How many times we have gone through something like that?

Re: 2021 US Open SDP Losers' Lounge
Thanks to Ons Jabeur I am now out of both the men's and ladies polls and can get back to my life a little earlier than usual.
But I am learning more about how to read my gut instincts. Before I made the losing picks in both draws I was feeling I was making a mistake but then decided, nope, that is a trick, ignore it, as it is my confirmation that I am making the right pick. Nope, just go with the first instinct.
Of course, LOL, will I remember this insight?

That was another solid pick that simply did not work out. Nothing more. Good showing

And Fernandez takes down 31 of you. I am so sorry, we might not have all the beer you may need

Good move, but now it looks like Sabalenka might do you in, in not beating the draw. But by now, this is becoming a true game of chance. Good luck.

Ugh I hate that I chose a player I really dislike because it seemed the sensible choice. I hate myself....and (expletive).

Re: 2021 US Open SDP Losers' Lounge
me too.. chose Halep though I dont really like her, and Svitolina took her out.. grrr! trying to be strategic or tactical or something...still, lasted longer than I usually do, so am happy.. still alive in the Men's, which is a real surprise, I dont even follow them that much - I mean, Djokovic always wins, so what is the point, really?

If you are a Novak fan, a lot. If you are not, hoping he loses
