Andy Roddick +1800

[andrewaxia]

Just put $500 to win $9,000 on this. Yes, I realize he plays Roger next but Roddick is on an amazing tear and outstanding form right now. Roger was impressive over Del Potro as well. Two in-form players but Federer was down 0-2 last round in a match he should have cruised.

This is a big value bet.

good luck with that, but i see that bet as waste of $500. i have a feeling that most of the people here would feel that way.

I'm not certain his form is "outstanding". Yes he typically dominates on serve, most one-trick ponies are really good at something. However, Andy has been the beneficiary of poor conditioning of his opponents dying in the sun, does anyone think if Djokovic was playing under a closed roof he wouldn't have parlayed that 1 set to love lead into a victory?

djokovic is a JOKE. Do I think heat was a factor? yes. Do I think that is the reason Roddick won? No. It was funny that when djokovic was winning points, he looked fine and composed but when he was losing points, he'd mope around like he was so tired and drained. I really just think Djokovic was getting beat by a better player and had to have an excuse to pull out. If he was really that drained, he would have pulled out after the 3rd set... instead, he moves around fine in the 4th set (except for when he's losing points of course), and once he's broken and not on serve anymore, he can't handle the heat anymore. I've never seen such a wimp in my life. He should have been a good sport and finished the match... but it was JOKEavic.

Nothing is "for sure"
