Matt's Tennis Plays & Record keeping...

**fitguy67** · 03-14-14, 04:58 PM

let me say it first, Matt...

that bastard Harrison...breaks back in the third...only to "fail to consolidate", aka GBTFRBLTDTHI (get broken the fukk right back like the douchebag that he is)

Challenger Tour = WTA with "small poles instead of big holes"

no...total games won for the player (in this case Djokovic)...analogous to the team total for team sports...

certainly not available everywhere...under 12.5 would win if Djoko wins in straights but never pushed to a 7-5 or 7-6...or if Benny actually beat him and kept him under 13 games won total

This is why I take it sometimes, I've had the dog win in straights befor as well. Although if I thought this one thru, the under 20 was the wiser choice.

GL Matt, John should get it!

**Hardcoar** · 03-14-14, 06:16 PM

So you think he's the favorite here?

**Metaphor** · 03-14-14, 06:33 PM

1st set Isner

Lets go Big John!

That was fing close tho.

**fcmb** · 03-14-14, 06:38 PM

I have 2 tickets , one with Isner +1.5 set @1.45 and second with CS 2:1 for Gulbis.. Main ticket is of course with BIG JOHN +1.5 set

**Hardcoar** · 03-14-14, 06:38 PM

Nice hit Matt! That was the only shot Isner had. Gulbis almost outclassed him in most of the rallies in my opinion, although he was very impressive in the one that won him the mini-break. Tennis is all about winning the points that matter, as we both know.

He is the more accomplished one historically until this point, I will agree to that.

I hear ya man. This will come down to the wire. I see why John has problems with this guy.

You can tell gulbis's serve may win him this match. He's totally making john look bad on rallies

**Hardcoar** · 03-14-14, 06:48 PM

That's why people are always giving Isner so much shit... because he doesn't excel in rallies (to the extent other players of equal ranking do) and has a "terrible" return game (by the same standards), and relies on his serve so much. When his serve works he will get more or less chances in every set though and in the end those important points are all that matter. I think the fact that he "looks bad" discredits his actual accomplishments. Other players can be as "good" as they want but if they don't make the set-points happen Isner will reign supreme.

You surely have a point but tell me which player with similar height than Isner i comparable to Big John in rallies?

Absolutely no one – that's who.

Yes, this is true. He's miles better than Karlovic and close to Milos in this regard

**matt1216** · 03-14-14, 06:55 PM

isners starting to win more rallies

**fcmb** · 03-14-14, 06:59 PM

Also better than Anderson , Brands, Vesely and similar players.. Brands has 196cm and Jiri 198cm for example..

**Metaphor** · 03-14-14, 07:00 PM

Isner can't break to save his life

**Hardcoar** · 03-14-14, 07:01 PM

I agree... my post was meant to point out that he's a lot better than he seems to be, and than a lot of people are giving him credit for.

**fcmb** · 03-14-14, 07:58 PM

Matt i believe that Li Na is the must bet @1.40 at least. Yeah it"s WTA but LI is definitely 2nd best player on the tour and probably the most stable & consistent players in last let say 3-4 years. Flavia is nothing special and she "never" (very rarely) win against better ranked opponent. What is your opinion Matt?

Yeah, NA should win this but I don't like her odds. Her brain cramps from time to time. Pennetta has been solid this tourney. She can win if Li is average tonight

Boom boom! This line was a setup to bury most as all there matches have only gone 2 sets

**Semper Fidelis** · 03-15-14, 12:05 AM

Good hit Matt! I knew I should've went bigger on this play. Hopefully Na Li will still win this match to make up for the 2-0 prop loss! What play are you eyeing for Kazan later? I really like both dogs, but not sure which one has the better chance of cashing. Might place something small on a parlay of the two just for fun!
