can't get a decent # on Sharapova now. I think she'll pull it out though. GL

Tennis wagering can be absolutely brutal sometimes.

Yeah it's not easy. Especially not during a Slam because the lines become so efficient due to the number of people wagering... especially as the tourney progresses. That's why whenever I'm lucky enough to have made a profit after the first couple of rounds, I scale it all back and just bet a few matches for much less. Next week you'll be dealing with the same efficiency as NFL playoff lines. The final = Superbowl. Very tough.

I suck

Very efficient. I managed to steer clear off the early matches but have dived in these last two days. So far i've about broken even. All day today I was going back and forth whether to take Lisicki +5 or the ML and at the last minute I bailed and played the total.

What are you talking about??? She still has a huge shot to win this. I lost my under and told you not to take her. If anything, I suck, even if Maria wins. You did well Foldie... you picked a good dog here regardless of what happens

Regardless of who wins ......Sabine's got some sexy powerful legs.

C'mon Sabine , dont let that annoying banshee beat you.

Azarenka has an elegant bird like sound when she plays, Sharapova sounds like she is murdering someone or getting murdered! Why wont the crowd mock her instead?

what is the actual reason for players doing it?

I think it has to do with the breathing. It helps keep their breathing in tune and not lose their breath.

I've read its for power! I think its really to irritate the living shit out of the opponent!

Watching Sharapova & Serena play is like listening to nails over a blackboard.

I think she does it to put the other player off and or she's pretty much putting everything she has into each point.

shari91 · 01-23-12, 05:42 AM

It's also a way for players to mask the sound when the ball is hitting their racquet which hinders their opponent.

this is what I have heard.

They do it regardless of how hard they hit the ball or the effort they put in

MatI · 01-23-12, 05:44 AM

You can see she is using it as a timing mechanism, and help her get maximum power.

jjgold · 01-23-12, 06:20 AM

Sharapova looks like she might win this thing

Playing as well as the others

Her serve is too messed up. If she ever sorted that out again, she'd probably be #1.

You're welcome for the Errani play by the way

Yes good call but I gave you Nishi

Not a good call when I wanted to talk with you the last 11 days and you declined every time saying you were on the the road when in fact I heard the tv playing cartoons in the background and heard dishes banging. I doubt that goes on in your car and being in the car 11 straight times that I wanted to chat?????

Shari I am not easy to fool....did not appreciate either I left you over 60 e-mails to call me the last 2 weeks or so

I need to ask you questions about SBR PERIOD not anything else so stop thinking that

You remind me of Maria Sharapova as far as personality
