Watson looking a little fat

**rizespor** · 01-17-17, 01:14 AM

Lucic-Baroni -117

This girl is a bit of a headcase but why not

**rizespor** · 01-17-17, 01:54 AM

Kovinic looks very comfortable here. Definitely looking to back her against hopefully bacsinszky.

**Cuse0323** · 01-17-17, 01:56 AM

Monfils -350

Am I crazy?

He tempered the clown act a bit last year but monfils as a big favorite is still kinda living dangerously IMO.

Looks like it's his first match since November so little uncertainty there too

**rizespor** · 01-17-17, 02:06 AM

Kovinic with the 1st set bagel. Looks like a missed opportunity here

**Cuse0323** · 01-17-17, 04:00 AM

Unreal. Got this Paire guy live in the 1st. I know Haas will eventually retire. Don't come back if you can't handle it. He looks like he's gonna have a heart attack. Be a man, and lose. Though this Frenchie is a hot head, and should have this over by now. I need this win Haas. Drink up, and go down like a man. Germans don't fold. Unless you're a Nazi bastard.

**Cuse0323** · 01-17-17, 04:06 AM

2-0 Frenchie. Don't pus out Haas. I know you have pride.

**Cuse0323** · 01-17-17, 04:07 AM

Unfckin believable. You scum bag bitch.

**Cuse0323** · 01-17-17, 04:08 AM

Guy deserves no respect ever again. Quitter. Just cost me $500. He wipes his ass with it, so what does he care. I needed that you fckin prick. And fck books for not paying on that shit.

Just wasted my time all night to win nothing. Gotta move in a month, and these professionals can just walk off to their millions.

**moojoo** · 01-17-17, 04:11 AM

Shouldnt Paire count as win? Only in some euro books when player retire its void.

**Cuse0323** · 01-17-17, 04:12 AM

5Dimes doesn't count it. Tony doesn't give a shit.

**Cuse0323** · 01-17-17, 04:17 AM

He just knew he was done, and quit.

That's how you want to go out in probably your last match. It's not even hot. Complete disgrace to the sport.

Oh well. Back to the grind.

**jjgold** · 01-17-17, 06:07 AM

I do not get some of those tennis rules

Many books the win counts

**Cuse0323** · 01-17-17, 07:40 AM

And now I'm done

Some random women's match. She had it, but got nervous. I don't blame her. Every other play I thought about was a winner.

Haas is a shame to sports. Cost me everything because he's a sore loser. Good shit. I'll be back, but he couldn't tough out another 30 minutes. And he got paid for that shit. 38, and debating retirement. Well, I think it's clear now. He said he wanted to go out on his terms. He will forever be a bitch, on his terms.

**Cuse0323** · 01-17-17, 07:52 AM

Any books that pay on retirements? Sick of 5D anyway. Haas just cost me 1500 because he's a bitch.

Or books that do BTC fast, and pay? And maybe have a site that doesn't crash before game time. Can't wait until Tony has a heart attack. Worthless fck.

It does count as a win at many books who offer action after 1 ball or 1 set completed.

5Dimes did grade Paire a winner.

Their rules say action after 1 set complete.

If they really graded a ML bet on him a loser or void for you then you can lodge a complaint form and I am sure it can be fixed.

If you are talking about a ML bet then definitely put in a complaint form. If it was a handicap bet, there isn't any book in the world that would not void on retirement unless the match could not have naturally played out any way other than a definite win/loss.

Here's a list of book rules another poster compiled and posted 3 or 4 months ago;

Optional - looks like cuse said he took him live

She gets woz next so looks like her tournament is done.

Too bad, would love to see more of her

**rizespor** · 01-17-17, 08:57 AM

Lot of good matches tonight. Will definitely be on Riske, goerges, Puig, Barty, falconi and kovinic in some form

**Optional** · 01-17-17, 09:00 AM

Ah.

Don't know of anywhere with live betting that pays on retirement.

**Cuse0323** · 01-17-17, 09:02 AM

Yeah, I should have made it known that it was ML live. I still think it should count, but oh well. I grabbed Paire when he was down a break in the 1st so not like I jumped on him late. I appreciate it, Optional.

I'm done with them regardless. I get the rules, so not about that.

**Cuse0323** · 01-17-17, 09:06 AM

A bit on tilt, so I shouldn't have vented like that when all books would do the same on a live bet.

Yep. Would take quite an effort from Vekic and a poor day from Woz.

**RetiredinPunta** · 01-17-17, 12:32 PM

Karlovic played match over 5.5 hours with record setting 82 games in the last set tie breaker that went 22-20 in favor of karlovic. he is a pretty big favorite against an aussie youngster in the 2nd round. does anyone know how that youngster plays....if he has a decent return game and can rally few hits he can easily win this because karlovic mainly relies on big serves and must be gassed out now.

**beefcake** · 01-17-17, 12:45 PM

Harrison tonight guys at +400..He played berdych last year and was +500 in a best of 3...Tells you something on how well Ryan has improved and how crappy birdy has become. Ryan + games or +2.5 sets is a strong play and slight play on the ML.

with you on harrison cant trust berdy lol

**RetiredinPunta** · 01-17-17, 12:52 PM

Problem with Harrison is he is serve only guy. Berdych is weak nowadays but you want to fade him against a low player that has good rally and good return game. harrison is big serve or nothing.

**rizespor** · 01-17-17, 03:03 PM

Few plays for tonight

Riske -108
Vikhlyantseva +3.5 -112
Goerges -2 -109
Kristyna Pliskova/Begu over 22 -108
Bouchard -3.5 -116
Puig -3 -113
Barty +140

**JohnHanson** · 01-17-17, 03:23 PM

Haas, this son of a bitch, was so obv. why not put all the money on the ml Paire at Pinnacle, this shit...

I think the over by Harrison is the best. Don't see a 3-0 here, but a closer 3-1 Berdych can be.

**rizespor** · 01-17-17, 08:27 PM

Alison always making things as hard as possible for herself.

Glad to see she did not completely choke away the set

**jjgold** · 01-17-17, 08:36 PM

Spreads better to bet than Money lines

**rizespor** · 01-17-17, 08:55 PM

Spreads tough too

Seems like the player I bet always gets bageled in the 3rd set
