Cibulkova vs Li Na - In Game Thread

[stepanekslips]

I have no opinion other than happy to have a +200 dog to hedge on the Li Na future to open the tournament and not have to worry about being right or wrong.

I CANNOT believe Azarenka lost. Biggest UPSET of AO bar none. Seriously fukc Obama.

[stepanekslips]

Loooool respect!

Not sure if I do anything, but Cibulkova +1.5 sets at -140 yesterday was about the easiest money I've ever made. Broke first serve of the match, and never looked back.

[innn]

do you justify that price?

it's 3 setter written all over. it's over games all over again. nobody is gonna smash nobody.

[snufflyjoe]

geeze how many times has Li lost as a favourite? I dont follow tennis as closely as you lot but I do seem to remember Li losing quite a few times as a -500 and even greater favuorite

These ladies be flakey I say

[jjgold]

Sticking with the over bet here

Leaving match winner alone

Li Na all the way baby....yeah Cibulkova looked unstoppable last night, but Radwanska did not come to play. Li Na is not gonna make that mistake against Cibulkova....that girl is always ready for a war.

Yeah a war with her husband, the players box, her fans, the ump, etc. She's a fullblown nutter! With women it's a matter of who will crack the least and I'm more than happy to take the plus odds on the girl who has been shoving the ball down her opponents' throat.

Are you taking the plus games on Cibulkova or straight moneyline?

Just the ML and really I kind of expect to lose it. I've just seen Li go batshit so many fricken times - usually when I've had cash on her ffs - that I think getting that price on Cibu who at least has a decent head on her shoulders can't be ignored. She is sooooooo strong with her shots and she doesn't have the typical WTA meltdown so that alone is worth a bet for me. But I don't have nearly the amount of cash invested that many of you do so I won't be heartbroken if I lose. She's made me more than enough dosh this tourney that I'd never be greedy but I do believe she can take Na Li out.

gotcha...I'll be very happy for her if she wins it....I'm betting the opposite side, but just from the spectator and a fan of this game point of view, I think it would a truly remarkable achievement in her career.

She has not been cracking in a while

She has lots of big match experience which counts a lot

Cibulkova is actually playing very well but IMO Na Li is too strong.

[jjgold]

Cibulkova is the tv pick meaning you watched her and she smashed everyone

Na is the experienced pick

If I had to choose I take NA

[vyomguy]

na li will win in straight sets.

radwanska mentioned she was exhausted in semis and pretty much gave up.

cibulkova…i still remember in last year sydney open…was hot and made it to finals…..and then got smashed 6-0 6-0.

You never trust cibulkova.

na li made 2 finals here and didnt win them….she will be very motivated to win 3rd time. cibulkova is just happy to be here and cash that big check.

in past 4 matches against na li, cibulkova has won 1 set……thats right….1 set in 4 matches.

This wont be even close.

na li in straight sets.

[innn]

lol, this 'LKOVA is way better than the one that took 1 set in 4 matches.

[SteveKerrsJunk]

I just pounded Ni La in more than one way!

[vyomguy]

People over-react to recent matches.

sharapova was coming off a injury.

penatta and halep were not mentally strong.

randwanska was exhausted as she admitted.

I don't think cibulkova has improved drastically over-night.

[kenz]

She improved drastically believe me

That being said, Li Na > Cibulkova

Pennetta played Li NA bro, but we get your point. Li Na will lay the wood to cibulkova

[ThaTopMoron]

Li Na 2-0 SET BETTING -103

[ctny85]

If Aggie could handle Azarenka she should've had no problems dealing with Cibulkova. If Cibu can handle Maria, she has a much better chance of winning against Li than the odds imply. I'm not trying to tell anyone to follow me and I already said earlier that I'm not going crazy betting on this one. But from what I've seen I'm very confident that she has a much better chance against Li than 30% and as a gambler I'd be foolish not to make this bet.

Radsawanka might has well have played with lead boots on vs cibulkova

[paco]

I just went with the hotter chick lol. Go chibulkova

[SteveKerrsJunk]

Li Na ain't gonna fk around. She will go for the jugular early and often. Her opponent will just try and look pretty and maybe get lucky on a few Li Na unforced errors. 6-2 6-4.

[vyomguy]

I just went with the hotter chick lol. Go chibulkova

This is not strip club paco

think with your brain….not with your penis

If you faded me this tourney you would've been broke. No clue who you are but you can take your nastiness the fuk out of this thread. Seeing as how your account wasn't even around for last year's AO I assume you're a ghost. Dumb move.

[tony_come]

Shari lets go! I'm on the white girl

[frugalgambler]

Vyom guy has been supersharp on NBA/NFL. Tennis though, I am not so sure. He also attracts a lot of idiots from the other subfora who then have to voice their stupid opinion about something they have no clue about. Anyway, this will be a fun match. A choker Li Na against a superdetermined munchkin (who also likes to choke to be fair).
