JJ today you are going down bigtime.

diamond · 06-30-10, 06:12 AM

Not saying it will be easy though, but favorites will go through. Djokovic I pass on.

shari91 · 06-30-10, 06:14 AM

I agree diamond. The only one I would consider putting money on would be Lu and I'll probably pass on that as well. I was debating Tsonga but I just can't rely on him to pull it off in this one so I'd rather sit back and just cheer him on instead. Best of luck with your bets today!!

I also bet on Shvedova/King in doubles, but too late to bet on as it has started.

So did I. Hopefully we get this one.

diamond · 06-30-10, 06:54 AM

Very inconsistent, didnt deserve to lose by that scoreline in first set, 3-6. Still think they can come back though.

diamond · 06-30-10, 06:56 AM

2/9 on BP!..Sreb/Pes 3/3

diamond · 06-30-10, 07:00 AM

Been watching a bit, King looks like the weakest link in that pair

diamond · 06-30-10, 07:06 AM

Breaks to love, 2-0, deserved. Then King drops serve again 1-2.

diamond · 06-30-10, 07:13 AM

Shvedova holds to 3-2. Need a break here, knowing King hasnt held serve at all so far.

Federer will win Nadal will win Murray will win I know market now leaning towards a federer loss and Nadal loss, but this is because they had some small struggles in the early rounds. The further the tournament progresses, the more they will raise their level. Murray will also make it through this round, Tsonga way too inconsistent. Its not often I believe in favorites that much, but today I do. Market is overreacting.

Agree with Murray getting through today and Feds will probably squeak by, but it will be tight. However don't think Raffy gets by Sodes today.

King gets broken again(!) from 30-0 to 3-4. Peschke then in complete control with 40-15, but misses a sitter on 40-30. King/Shvedova breaks and holds strongly to 5-4. King still so weak on her wn serve, and returning 2nd serves. Its all Shvedova.

Then they misses setpoints, as the commentator said " they should not be in this position", should have won set long time ago, but King keep making errors.

Now 5-5 and King to serve

diamond · 06-30-10, 07:40 AM

Stop the press

King holds to 6-5..now break for set please.

diamond · 06-30-10, 07:46 AM

Peschke with low confidence after that last choking service game, drops serve again, and King/Shvedova takes set 7/5 after first missing another setpoint!

Fed has just dropped the first set btw.

diamond · 06-30-10, 08:00 AM

Lol what a keygame, King holds from 0-30 down to 2-1.. Federer also up 3-0 in 2nd set.

diamond · 06-30-10, 08:11 AM

Shvedova/King finally breaks, on their 6th chance in this game..3-1! Been really worried, if they didnt break there..

diamond · 06-30-10, 08:21 AM

Another 2 bp wasted, I think its 17/23 saved by pes/srebotnik...4-2 lead. King up to serve

gman2114 · 06-30-10, 08:28 AM

favorites all win

2daBank · 06-30-10, 08:31 AM

damn fed broken early in the 3rd

diamond · 06-30-10, 08:35 AM

Shvedova/King wins...3-6 7-5 6-3

Nice comeback. Federer in huge problems though, down 0-3 in 3rd set.

Ryangene · 06-30-10, 08:41 AM

Oh Federer... Thats why vegas is so darn big.... Huge Favorites -500 and people laying $1,000 just to try win an "easy" $200 and they cash in on some peoples sucker bets. I had a buddy lay huge wood on the Yankees when they were up huge on Boston in the ALCS and he lost his shirt... Got to love gambling.
