    This is the single best short-read to wise you up to differences in retirement rules.

      Are you penetrating kidding me. Had a bet on Dancevic winning the set, he gets 6-1 ahead in the tiebreak and fuckin loses it 6-8. Done with this goddamn US Open.

        me too
        I look and he's up 6-1 next thing I see he's down 7-6



        He hadn't lost a service game all set and was looking good.

        then he comes back in the first service game of the 2nd Set serving up a storm again

            And As I write that Donskoy gets broken in the 5th set.

            What a horrid day. I believe I am also going to air out the rest of the US Open.

                too many unpredictable things happen. there is no consistency.

                in the 2nd Set Dancevic looks like a world beater. He can do no wrong. but he couldn't get one service point in 3 chances to win the 1st Set. ok

                  Stevie Johnson killed me today with retiring. Up 2 sets to 1 and retires in the 4th.

                    Unfortunately, that is not that unpredictable. Dancevic sucks. I finally stopped trying to back him earlier in the year.

                        Yeah that are a one set for action book. I've found over the years that I prefer on books that require a complete match. Might cause you to miss a win here and there, but it seems that the bailouts help out more at least psychologically for me. This week for example. I guess I'm 1-1 on that. Burned by the Sock retirement cancelled the Andujar bet and then grateful today for Baghdatis going down early.

                                Saucy = drink more to absorb the impending loss. Loochi stinks. Wawa on cruise control.

                                        Wawrinka didn't play well in his opener, so really if Bellucci served decent tonight he should have been able to stick in. Was not sure if he would win a set, so took that total - I'm always looking to fade WaWa.

                                                      Yup. I don't make drunk picks. I'm a functional drunk, but am not even close to buzzed at the moment.
                                                      I noticed that both you and I saw that monster line movement on Seppi. Good luck tomorrow. I think the public is in for a stressful match tomorrow.

                                                        Mentioned it before but it doesn't matter who Kygrios verses, the odds will always drop. Public loves him.

                                                                I've pretty much quit betting Paire matches this season. He's on the same plane of existence as Dolgopolov to me. You truly never know what you are going to get. You can get a guy who can knock off top five players one match and a guy who couldn't beat a WTA player the next. Rather not worry about which one will show up in a given match personally!
