I was looking at the 7PM match myself.

Any thoughts on Isner being good value?

Thanks buddy! I appreciate it.

Isner's a big server, figures to do well at home, even if he loses it may be a 5-7, 7-6, 6-7 style affair. I would put a small play on that and hold off on anything further until it's closer to start time.

Earlier this morning I was considering Haas for a play actually, but I think it should be close.

Isner with the +3.5 would be a good play.Will be hard for haas to break his serve

Just noticed that myself, hopefully he ended up placing a bet at -120 earlier. I'd guess most people playing Isner hit that up today and most on Haas just took him straight up. Should be a tightly contested match either way, but I expect Tommy to pull it out.

UndisputedGblr · 07-16-08, 05:16 PM

I pulled the trigger at -120, thankfully.

Best of luck tonight guys.

What will be really interesting is seeing how well Isner serves.

I should have bet Verdasco earlier. He was a pretty sizable fav though, I like him better as small to medium dog.

Shark79 · 07-16-08, 05:53 PM

Verdasco is uncertain at times ... I think twice before I jump on him as a fav.

SBR Lou · 07-16-08, 06:38 PM

Any thoughts on Serena Williams tonight anybody?

Wed 7/16 S. Williams -2000
10:05 PM M. Larcher De Brito +1500

Wed 7/16 S. Williams -7 +108

Shark79 · 07-16-08, 06:39 PM

Like the over

SBR Lou · 07-16-08, 06:40 PM

Mm, I can see that happening. You thinking a 3 setter, or more along the lines of a 6-4, 6-3?

gummo · 07-16-08, 07:07 PM

Anybody watching this? I have Haas to win. Sportsline is showing him up 5-2 in the first but I am not sure how long the delay is.

No prob, good stuff...

Some good opportunities coming up the next few days, just got to keep ducking and moving, it's easy to fall into a trap in these garbage tournaments because players don't always give it their all.

UndisputedGblr · 07-16-08, 07:44 PM

Should have laid off this game. But then again I got lucky as f*ck with the AL winning tomorrow, so I can't complain.

Congratulations to all he people who had Haas.
