    For every contest I've run it's been retirements = void. When I started these a year ago I didn't even know SBR's book rules as I don't bet in there. Next time I'll put it in the first post - but they're the same rules that applied in the first round all the way through. There's no way I'm going back to the first round and changing scores now in both contests.

    UPDATED RESULTS AFTER ROUND OF 16

    Tsonga: 870

    Shari, JNic, Cross, Match: 810

    Mirar: 800

    Guivara, EP, BTH: 790

    Vegas: 770

    I don't know how much the final rounds are worth, but Federer losing should take some people out of contention.

    Maybe I can win if Djokovic comes through.

    Fed up two sets in majors 178-0 record. Now 178-1. I imagine the in running line would have been at 2% at the start of the third set.

    Shari, I have donated 10 pts each for the ladies and mens tourneys so far. I will continue to donate two pts per day alternating between the womens and mens tourneys until I am fully paid up for both. This will obviously go into next week.

    Are you ok with this?

    It's very appropriate that a man named tsonga is leading the pack

    shari I've paid 10/20 points... I skipped a few days just forgetting... this process is a nuisance, but I'll get it done (obviously it will have to go into the next week, hopefully you are okay with this!)

    yah - started in '09 backing Tsonga...thankfully i haven't backed him financially a lot of times but he is one of my fav. players to watch.

    You have me picking Nadal to win in your analysis...which i may want to switch to after the fact but I picked Djoker for this pool.

    Zero. I'm running away with them all as I think you rigged this somehow.

























    Once I figure out the final and sort out who paid/didn't pay, I'll post it. It'll be a little bit more than the French as the entry fee was bigger. I just need to make sure everyone's paid, etc....

    I was hopeful for a good placing when Murray won the first set, but it all fell apart from there.

    Not to mention the money I lost. I found Murray in the second set (up a set, but down a break) at +160 on Bodog...
