yisman go get job this is not your business!

yisman · 10-29-09, 11:06 AM

Bad pick by me.

Sorry. What happened was they were each holding back and forth until, on 4-3 Llodra, Monaco was pushed to deuce on his serve. He got the advantage, but then gave it away and lost a prolonged game. He failed to break Llodra on the ensuing serve, and thus went down 6-3. That was the turning point in the match and now it looks like Monaco will fall in straight sets.

i was on Monaco as well before I even read this post, and I'd take it again with those odds

yisman · 10-29-09, 11:16 AM

one afternoon pick:

in-play
Andreev over Safin +310, risk 3 units

I would also take it again. I fail to understand the odds on this one, regardless of Monaco losing. Unless he was injured, how could he be an underdog to Llodra?

Another absurd line with Monaco versus a Frenchman in France.

Loss

yisman · 10-30-09, 10:52 AM

yeah, I figured that one out. Thanks!

yisman · 10-30-09, 12:11 PM

Lets get this!!!

RobbReport · 10-30-09, 01:01 PM

crazy, azarenka is a monster right now despite that loss to Woz.

RobbReport · 10-30-09, 01:02 PM

didn't even know the match started, i wouldve pounded the spread with azarenka.

yisman · 10-30-09, 01:15 PM

Azarenka is bageling Radwanska in the second set.

Oh well. Going to lose on the spread barring a miracle.

yisman · 10-30-09, 01:45 PM

At deuce here. This pretty much decides the cover.

yisman · 10-30-09, 01:47 PM

she holds!

6-4 5-4 Azarenka. Unless Radwanska wins the second set and gets blown away in the third, it's a sure cover.

Radwanska has won 45% of the total points.

RobbReport · 10-30-09, 01:49 PM

you lucky skank.

good job.

yisman · 10-30-09, 02:04 PM

Radwanska takes the second set, 7-5.

She won five straight games after being down 5-2.

Overall points: 73-70 Azarenka.

that happens often with Radwanska. She's down a shitload of games in the second then comes back strong. i guess her opponents start taking it too easy.

yisman · 10-30-09, 02:41 PM

and Radwanska is now up 4-1.

9 of 10 games.

yisman · 10-30-09, 02:50 PM

Azarenka is pathetic.

She was down 4-1 in the 4th set, and it was 15-40 on her serve, and she just retires.

RobbReport · 10-30-09, 02:55 PM

glad i didnt take any of these chicks today.

yisman · 10-30-09, 03:08 PM

See?

Radwanska destroyed Azarenka in the third. She was going to be up 5-1 and serving for the match. So rather than lose, Azarenka just quit. Classy.

RobbReport · 10-30-09, 03:21 PM

no, were you watching at all? she was really hurt bad.

RobbReport · 10-30-09, 03:22 PM

when the medic was saying to quit, early in the 3rd she was saying " no, are you kidding me... are you kidding me??"

yisman · 10-30-09, 04:04 PM

No, I wasn't watching. I was following online.

so why did she wait to quit? And when did she get hurt?

yisman · 10-30-09, 04:19 PM

ah, here we go.

Sorry for impugning your reputation, Azarenka.

i guess she got hurt late in the second. it was 1-0 in the 3rd with Azarenka to serve when the doc said to quit.

RobbReport · 10-30-09, 05:55 PM

not taking anything from Radwanska, cause you're supposed to out play, out survive and out work your opponent.

Ulver86 · 10-30-09, 11:39 PM

another reason why Jankovic can be a good play is because she retires so much if shes down

StraitShooter · 10-30-09, 11:55 PM

thats what I love about 5 dimes

Matches are official after 1 set

I hate not getting a win because someone who is gonna lose retires

sometimes this helps you out though

I play all big dogs @ 5 dimes

and all big favs at Bookmaker

yisman · 11-03-09, 02:45 AM

Hernych over Luczak +144, risk 2 units

Hotdiggity11 · 11-03-09, 02:53 AM

I've lost on some big dogs due to ****ing retirements.

Jokeovic especially does this shit.

gregoor3 · 11-03-09, 11:55 AM

yisman, nice one

Nice spot there yisman. Couldnt believe the lines when i saw them. Pounded it hard. I swear there are times when the oddsmakers really have very little idea about what their capping

Absolutely agree. I find some lines to be very strange.
