    Come on you shameful bastards ... QUARTERFINALS of a GRAND SLAM today. If you can have a fukkin' MMA match's lines posted a week or more in advance .... surely something that is CURRENT could be posted. Your "line service" has these posted .. why not SBR? Tennis racists.

    It's just bad business IMO. The # of bettors who show up only for Grand Slams in tennis vs. the rest of the year is astronomically higher and the majority of them don't research anything, so SBR could stand to see a lot of action off these matches. I think they even offer something for the Golf majors, don't they?

    2nd day of the QFs and they finally post some lines.


    You should still be ashamed of yourselves, but it's at least a small sidestep for SBR-kind. Now, I hope we all rape the SBR book for points.

    ML prices are a joke this round. You can parlay all the favorites and you get 9 points for every 100 you put in ... not worth it.

    Lines were up for the first day. I made bets on the Clijsters and Nadal matches, as did others.

    I did not see anything yesterday before the 1st matches started. If the later ones were posted, so be it ... but that sucks because I'm not going to keep checking on something when I don't see the first match available for the night. Lines should have been available during the day hours in advance. It's whatever, tennis in the SBR book is going to always be buried on the bottom of the priority list. But that's why we have other options.

    I checked earlier and didn't see the first matches listed (qfinals).

    How is it that they can't just post lines like they do for nba/baseball/NHL?

    Meaning every tournament....

    Lou explained it in the first post: The book is becoming more recreational. If they're going to keep offering all the contests and promos they do, things have to give in other areas. As well as the constant start time changes, especially in the middle of the night, just opened SBR up to a massive amount of shot takers. There are 128 matches in the first round of a Slam between the men and women. Everything is done manually as far as changing start times and grading. It got a bit ridiculous as far as manpower was concerned considering this is just a fun book on an Internet forum.

    What if you only did the quarters/semis/finals, or even just semis/finals or finals only for non-major tournies?

    We're shaping our model to be more recreational, offering various promos forces some cutbacks, plus we're not able to manage tennis effectively due to the constant time changes. We'll still be more than happy to manage requests on a per-game basis if there's a rubberband play you've simply got to get down on, but that will be at the SBR Sportsbook's discretion. Shoot Dax a PM with similar requests.
    Fixed.

    By the way, how have we not bashed SBR for the lack of lines for a f-ing Grand Slam. Yeah, I know ... quarterfinals and on. THIS IS A MAJOR EVENT, not some podunk tournament in Costa Rica. How in the world do you guys still post all this inane BS like the Ultimate Fighter Finale for MMA and WNBA ... but nothing for a Grand Slam event? Shameful.

    What was funny today is that the "up next" feed at the SBR Book featured ALL TENNIS MATCHES with no lines posted. Superb.
