I took Wozniacki too, parlayed her with Kirilenko

Now if only there was a stream to watch these two fine babes

SBR Lou · 07-25-08, 10:13 AM

Doesn't it make it easier if they lose, getting to have a "consolation time" to their pics later that night?

woodg8 · 07-25-08, 10:17 AM

Yeah, or if they win, it'll be double the pleasure

SBR Lou · 07-25-08, 10:24 AM

If only I'd stop losing money betting on people like Gulbis or Ferrer I could've been riding Ms. Wozniacki all damn week. She's been so sharp.

EaglesPhan36 · 07-25-08, 10:36 AM

I got Cilic first at +120. Looking at Blake vs. Kiefer. I think I'm in the J-Block for -160! Can't find a reason not to back him today. I think the win over Tursonov squashed last week's disappointment & I think Blake should continue with what has been a pretty good hard court season for him in '08. Whatcha got?

SBR Lou · 07-25-08, 10:37 AM

Wozniacki is serving to win the 1st set _6-0_...

This Denmark babe is ridiculous.

EaglesPhan36 · 07-25-08, 10:56 AM

Not to mention she is playing nobody?

Just giving you & your -250 plays hell bro. Cash is cash.

woodg8 · 07-25-08, 11:00 AM

Dushevina is ranked 65, Wozniack is 29, not that big a gap. Anyway, she's romping it 6-0 5-1 at the moment

Come on Kiri

RogueJuror · 07-25-08, 11:04 AM

Nicolas Kiefer +136 on the ML

SBR Lou · 07-25-08, 11:07 AM

Caroline Wozniacki wins 6-0, 6-1...

EaglesPhan36 · 07-25-08, 11:10 AM

That other chick shouldn't have even gotten outta bed!

Stacocakes · 07-25-08, 11:24 AM

Holy shit guys are you watching gilles simon today?He is andy roddick without a serve. ****ing guy just hits the ball back in the middle of the court and waits for the opponent to make an unforced error. It actually looks like he is just out there rallying to warm up. Check it out if you have a chance.

That one isn't on TV for me, but he's up a break in the 2nd set.

Yeah, I've been watching bits of it. I don't think he's actually hit a winner yet, he just hits it back nice and softly and just stands there till Cilic inevitably hits the net out of frustration. This guy can't play Tennis

EaglesPhan36 · 07-25-08, 11:32 AM

Damn it. Cilic sucked this 2nd set. Oh well, looks like we go to the old 3rd set shit in my pants to see if I win!

SBR Lou · 07-25-08, 11:38 AM

James Blake looking like the play.

EagesBets · 07-25-08, 11:41 AM

small play on blake -150... 750/500

Stacocakes · 07-25-08, 11:42 AM

Cilic just cant convert a bp.He has had so many chances this set and all he does is hit the ball into the net on every one of them
I had a game bet on simon in this set and it went to deuce like 6 times and the game lasted 10 mins at least.Took a couple years off my life.So frustrating to watch him play

Stacocakes · 07-25-08, 11:46 AM

Those waiting for blake and kiefer will have to wait awhile.This cilic match is going to a third set and the games are each very long.Match has already been an hour and 50 mins

Yes suh! I'm in.

Stacocakes · 07-25-08, 11:50 AM

I want to jump on the train as well but I ****ing hate Blake.That asshole has cost me so much money.I would like to meet him and say "Hey ****er,you have cost me about 10 grand in my life you asshole" and if he pays me the 10 grand then all is good and he will be my favorite player.If not, **** him

He has me too, in fact he just screwed me in the Indy tourney. But I won't let it hinder me here, maybe it should but really Keifer has had things gifted somewhat so far. And only reason Blake is ranked so highly at all is his performances on this surface.

EaglesPhan36 · 07-25-08, 11:56 AM

Cilic is gonna wind up blowing this match after a great first set. About to be broken and that's gonna be ball game.

Stacocakes · 07-25-08, 11:59 AM

I can't believe simon. Watching this match is emberassing. He is just hitting it back in the center of the court every time with no power
One of the worst matches I have ever seen. Sad thing is that this tactic is actually working

SBR Lou · 07-25-08, 12:00 PM

I just did a 3 team parlay. I'll post it and the line etc so it can count as a play. I decided I shouldn't count the Wozniacki +3.00u since I forgot to add the line in my original post.

James Blake -165
Kirilenko -250
Jankovic -275
*3 teamer
Risking 1u to win 2.10u

Makes me even more mad since I have Cilic. Seems like he should have taken advantage. DOOOSH!

Stacocakes · 07-25-08, 12:03 PM

I almost took cilic in the first set. Looked like simon was very tired and would get steamrolled

SBR Lou · 07-25-08, 12:06 PM

Simon will make finals though, and beat Nadal.

EaglesPhan36 · 07-25-08, 12:06 PM

Hopefully Blake can win back the money I wasted on Cilic. How you go from killing a dude to getting walloped so badly ...

HeeeHAWWWW · 07-25-08, 12:11 PM

On a hunch, going for $100 on Gasquet to edge Nadal 2-1, +900 at bet365. He looked pretty solid last night against another good retriever in Ferrer, and I can see Nadal's heavy crosscourt topspin failing badly against the Gasquet backhand (it doesn't kick up high enough on these courts).

woodg8 · 07-25-08, 12:11 PM

This match is the most pathetic match of Tennis I've seen all week, put some Kirilenko on tv instead

SBR Lou · 07-25-08, 12:16 PM

Kirilenko starts 30-0 in her 1st service game and then gets broken! Now down 2-0.

She double faulted into a damn break point.

Shark79 · 07-25-08, 12:19 PM

Screw him! He should have retired when he took the medical timeout and had some decency for all his backers. The loser got his ass kicked after the rain delay against Robredo, and now this. I am done backing him for the next few months, I'll back his ass in the clay court season and that's it.
