    +155 money on Kohlschreiber, yes please

    There is no way Old Man Haas is beating him twice in two weeks. Haas had his swan song with the tournament win over Federer and he needs to ride off into the sunset. In all seriousness, both players are great on grass and it seems to me that Haas is getting way, way too much credit over last weekend's results. If they want to give me plus money on a fairly equal matchup all things considered, I will take it everytime.

    Yep, getting Kohl at this price is a good spot. Also keep in mind winning a mini 2 set tourney is much different than a grueling 3 set slam format. Haas may be able to serve strong for two sets but will be difficult to sustain that for 4 sets. No way Haas is straight setting Kohl. Grandpa Haas may not be able to hang with a younger Kohl if it goes 4 or 5 setter.

    Haas has old legs. Kohlschreiber does not.

    Kohlschreiber has a bum ankle or at least that was the reason he gave for quitting in Eastbourne. You don't need young legs to beat Kohlschreiber in 4 or less.

    It's a lot easier to have heart at a major tournament. I'm not reading too much into his performance last week. He wasn't the only one not pushing himself out there. We'll see what happens I think it's worth a shot at +155. He opened as a -245 favorite last week against Haas and now all of a sudden he's a +155 underdog. That reeks of overvaluing Haas' miracle win over Federer.

    Perhaps the -245 was a terrible price to begin with. Over valuing Kohlschreiber's win over Rafa who didnt play half as well as Fed did against Haas.

    I totally agree Kohl is worth a shot absolutely.

    His performance last week could be predicted. He has never advanced through quarters week before Wimbledon. Talked about it before the match.

    I think you take the ++ odds on the younger player in a coin flip every day. If he doesn't have the heart to compete at Wimbledon.....

    Kohlscheieber can do nothing with Haas' serve to this point. Not even a break point yet.

    Will need to pick it up soon. I don't like my chances in a second set tiebreak here.

    Agreed. I'm banking on Haas running out of gas got to get it to the 5th.

    what a ******* mug tiebreak.

    6 of the last 7 points were mini-breaks, after 2nd set 12 games and no breaks, and the first 11 TB points going to form

    and this is at an untelevised court, who's genius idea was that. if there was one game i was betting on i want to watch it would be this one. staring at a number when a mugfest is going on is not cool

    Kohlschreiber not having an easy time on his serve at all, seems Haas is always up 15-30 every service game

    Lost a tough tiebreak there. I still think the longer this goes the more it benefits Kohl. Here's hoping to 5.

    One mini-break was all it took, Haas is gonna have to lose some steam on his serve here. And Kohlschreiber continues having long service games.. not looking good

    Agreed. Actually was 0-40. 3 set points to break.

    That was that. Lionheart folded

    Good way to head into the 5th winning the tiebreaker 7-1. This is what I counted on get Haas into the 5th and take control. Let's hit this boys!

    alright, kohlschreiber runs away with the tiebreak, hopefully haas is disheartened and comes out flat.

    cause haas is serving first 5th set and that's a huge advantage considering his easier service games
