I Am Surprised to See Birdman Favored Over Stan

SteveKerrsJunk · 02-15-15, 12:53 AM

Yes it does.

SteveKerrsJunk · 02-15-15, 12:55 AM

Birdman will be flying high tonight.

Tempted to push my luck here on principal, i.e., punish the books by fading my initial reaction.

It should be noted this is the most sure-fire betting strategy I have developed in my many encumbered years.

Fading yourself... good point

SteveKerrsJunk · 02-15-15, 05:47 AM

Don't fade the birdman, he's been lights out this tourney.

Pound the Birdman HARD!

BennyBigNuts · 02-15-15, 08:52 AM

Insane to not take Wawrinka in this match IMO
He's demonstrated straight ownage over Berdych lately and we all know Berdych is a choker when it comes to the mental aspect of the game.
You know he will be thinking about it from start to finish.
I am probably biased cuz I'm a big Stan fan, but to get him at +105 seems like stealing to me.
Just doesn't make sense Tomas is favored against someones who's beat him 5 times in a row.
STAN THE MAN for the win!

jtoler · 02-15-15, 08:52 AM

Birdie playing like a Greek god.

BennyBigNuts · 02-15-15, 08:57 AM

This is the best part of Berdych's game- having this chick in his cheering section.
Throw a set of cans on her and shes an 8.5 - 9

Form trumps that.

This reminds of when birdy knocked off nadal and everyone kept bringing up the h2h and how nadal owned his ass. Well the streak ends today!

LOL that's it?
I'd hardly say Berdych has the edge there

I agree the H2H doesn't mean a guy can't win.
I bet Stan last year in the aussie open +850 vs joker after he was like 0-12 vs him for his career.
You could see it coming.
But remember, he was +850, not a small fav.
Laying money in this spot just seems crazy
If Berdych was +150-200, I could understand wanting to take a shot on him.

I saw berdych playing yesterday....conclusion: Wawa will be destroyed

jtoler · 02-15-15, 09:22 AM

Changing my mind, I saw Birdie/Simon online yesterday, perhaps the bitrate wasnt the same as on tv lol, Birdie seemed to have been moving quicker and he was hitting bombs but thats because Simon laid so many balls up for him, watching on tv now, Bird would have prob have to serve out of his mind to win this and thats iffy, not worth a lay even a small lay IMO. Im about to bet Stan here for a bill. Birdie may take the 1st set though which will make in play a little difficult.

Berdych playing like the champ he is.

Vinnie Paz · 02-15-15, 10:19 AM

Berd dyke better not choke this

SteveKerrsJunk · 02-15-15, 10:22 AM

1st set down.

Now it all makes sense!

Chaz22 · 02-15-15, 10:49 AM

Who cares about Doha? We are living in 2015 now.

Vinnie Paz · 02-15-15, 10:57 AM

Berd shit get broke. Don't fold up now you fkn loser

Vinnie Paz · 02-15-15, 11:05 AM

Fkn useless piece of shit

BennyBigNuts · 02-15-15, 11:07 AM

ROFL
Vintage Berdych- the mental midget
Poor guy will never get that part of the game it seems

Gotta give Berdcocks credit breaking Stan there, coulda packed it in but still fighting.
He should go hire Ivan Lendl for a quick minute like Murray did.
Could possibly help him jump over that mental hump as well.

BennyBigNuts · 02-15-15, 11:27 AM

Anyone taking a flyer on Vanni at +450? Or +1.5 +150?

Vinnie Paz · 02-15-15, 11:32 AM

Yeah I'm taking him. Don't give a fukk, what more do I have to lose at this point

Vanni beating souza was pretty big.
Lot more pressure for him in this one obviously, but I just feel like he's gonna have a shot.
Hopefully he at least takes a set.

This was all about Birdie's 1st serve percentage dropping, he couldnt get a first serve in after then 1st set, so glad he couldnt.
