ATP Tour Finals @ The O2: Deep Thoughts by EP36

Doubles: Granollers-Lopez +180
Dogs are 3-1 in the doubles tournament so far with this Spanish duo already having knocked off the Bryan Brothers. They face Paes-Stepanek who were the only doubles duo not to lose as favorites in the opening round. These two met in the US Open, tied at 6-6 in the 1st when Granollers-Lopez withdrew due to injury. This is being used as a warm-up for the Spaniards who head to the Czech Republic for the Davis Cup Final next, also on an indoor hard surface. Likely to be another tight match.

Doubles was terrible. Multiple breaks by both in the 2nd. Should have at least gotten to a super breaker, but they couldn't hold break leads twice. Blah.

Bit of a struggle, but Fed comes through in straights. In perfect shape to advance and keep that future in line.

Not bet on the match would have been a suggestion LoL. Mr.T obviously nothing left in the tank at this point.

O2 Record: 3-3 [+0.20]

11-8-12
Djokovic 2-1 [+333]
Berdych 2-1 [+800]

Djokovic isn't quite golden yet. If he loses in straights & Murray wins in straights, he can actually miss out on advancing altogether. All he needs is to win one set against Berdych to secure a spot in the semis. Berdych has to win and hope for help. Djokovic whipped Berdych in straights in Shanghai, but I don't see the level of play this week being as high as it was then. Really, neither has played sustained great tennis so this could be a back and forth affair similar to Djokovic-Murray last round. Djokovic owns the head-2-head, 10-1 .. but Berdych has mostly shown up and competed against him. 0.5 unit on each and we'll see if it goes the distance. If Berdych can fight like he did in the first two RR matches & Djokovic has trouble closing like he did vs. Murray, I think we can get 3.

I like it EP, I'm such a sucker for juicy dog plays. I'm leaning heavy on the over myself but have not put in any work on the match yet.

Glad I was still asleep to not feel the live disappointment of that. Such is life gambling tennis. He screwed me twice this week alone, nothing new I suppose.

EaglesPhan36 · 11-09-12, 12:12 PM

Uno Mas ...

Tsonga 1st Set Winner [+250]
Simple formula. Tsonga can still advance 2nd in this group with a straight sets win today, while Murray takes the 2nd spot as long as he wins a set - whether he wins or loses overall. As such, I am expecting Tsonga's strongest play to come early if he's got any strong play left in him.

riffraff24 · 11-09-12, 02:43 PM

Good luck EP I'm on it too...Also took Murray to win 2-1 +300

riffraff24 · 11-09-12, 03:02 PM

Tsonga already broken. ugh...hopefully he can get it back
