Love major tennis! Australian Open is great

Sloan Stephens though......she has a tendency to fold on the big stage

mikewlgm · 01-17-16, 10:47 PM

Simona Halep might have the easiest road to the finals

What were the odds on that one?

jjgold · 01-18-16, 12:41 AM

stephens was -670

Jayvegas420 · 01-18-16, 12:59 AM

I made a 5 player 1st round parlay & it's still only -365.
Let's go Djokovic

GoBlue77 · 01-18-16, 01:00 AM

women should have to play best of 3 like the men. would love to see how that would shake out. we would have retirements all over the place

frugalgambler · 01-18-16, 01:05 AM

Looks like Serena again. Cannot believe she was +530 a few days ago. That injury report was total BS.

They did before, nobody was retiring that much. The style of play would change, and fat girls like Pav would not even try competing in Grand Slams. Serena would also be at disadvantage; fit players like Azarenka would love to have the best of five matches. But I think the dropped the best of five b/c not many spectators could endure watching the likes of Odin and Davis for >3 sets.

Jayvegas420 · 01-18-16, 01:09 AM

Ah ha. ....typo

Got it

Jayvegas420 · 01-18-16, 01:11 AM

I need Wozniacki to win this 2nd set!

i remember those days. just think for a major, you need to win 3 sets, let the women do 2 sets in the shit tournaments. best of 2 in a major is garbage come on ladies. yet they want the mens pay...

glad i didn't bet her. she has no game at all, just a backboard for the other player.

Jayvegas420 · 01-18-16, 01:33 AM

Yeah what's going on. She looks terrible

ApricotSinner32 · 01-18-16, 01:45 AM

Tennis grandslams more exciting then the nfl playoffs. Love to see federer to knocked out first round by this cab driver hes playing.

Jayvegas420 · 01-18-16, 01:52 AM

That'll kill my parlay!

agendaman · 01-18-16, 02:09 AM

boring stuff

Jayvegas420 · 01-18-16, 02:13 AM

The chick's are hot agenda!
I just might get outta this Wozniaki bet alive after all.

Feds doesn't lose to bums. especially in majors.

GoBlue77 · 01-18-16, 02:29 AM

same old wozniacki trash bag, she just burned so many parlays. bish was -1000

frugalgambler · 01-18-16, 02:30 AM

Wow, Woz lost to a feisty midget. I think she just did not want to play Serena down the road.

Betting women's tennis is the quickest way to lose a bankroll. I don't know how you guys can do it. There's no consistency, the level of play outside of the top 8 is garbage and you never know where their heads are at, if they'll give max effort or not. At least with the men there is some level of consistency in the top 50 or so and they all give max effort in grandslams. I can watch women's tennis all day, just can't bet on it.

That aside how about the Sock/Fritz 1st round matchup. The future of American tennis. This Fritz kid might be the real deal. He has the pedigree, his mom was a tennis player and he's one of only a couple of people ever to win multiple challenger tournaments before his 18th birthday something that both Nadal and Djokovic also did. This is his first ever appearance in the Men's draw of a GS. Nothing is guaranteed but he's off to a great start in his career. It would be big for American tennis if he could keep ascending and potentially be a top 10 player in a couple of years. It's been awhile since the U.S. had a legit threat on the men's side to win grandslams. I never saw Isner as a player with the type of game to win grandslams and the rest of the American guys, Young, Querrey, Kudla, Ram etc. are all jokes. We need someone to step up.

yeah isner and sock are the mens only hope and they can't take down top 5 guys in slams EVER. good enough to win best of 3 tournaments but the US has no hope for majors for men.

GoBlue77 · 01-18-16, 03:27 AM

thats my girl. PUIG!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just take big lines dogs that you're confident in early on. for example from my thread there are a few. Def value if you pick the right ones. They ain't gonna all cover the big lines they get and many are based off overhype from the previous tournament
