Sharapova still doesn't remember how to serve. Good thing she didn't forget how to grunt when she got hurt. That'd be hilarious though if she F-ed up grunting.

First set is over already?I see 4-2 Step
Was hoping Karlovic would come out early and maybe get the first set in a tiebreak.I don't really like him to come back from behind

No I meant he was going to lose after getting broken. One break and he's done in any set. He's getting rolled in this one.

Then promptly blows that. Tied 4-4 on serve. He's going to wind up losing in straights.

Well well, Ivo gets the 2nd set. Horrible form by both apparently at least in the tie break.

Haven't watched, been tracking the score and he's seemingly his usual self here. Steam rolls a couple games and he's saved at least two or three games where he started Love-40. Stepanek's 1st serve hasn't been totally dominant according to the numbers. Ivo's gotta get this set and finish it now. Although the rain delays could potentially be helping him save some gas. Still would rather not see him in a 5th set!

Anyone else with me on Flipkins +7 against Henin? I'm gona say Henin lays an egg early rounds. Maybe she wins today but she is not covering -7. Everyone expects her to progress deep but fact is she only played 3 games coming here and even then she didn't look sharp. We saw what practice or lack thereof means with Maria today.

Karlovic is done. Set 5, no shot in hell is my guess. Typical.

IVO the great!!!!!!!
Always good to start off a tournament with a winner, especially one that is a greater then +200 dog. Couldn't believe Karlovic won that match in 5 sets. I thought he would be done for sure but maybe the rain delay helped him rest up a bit.
Can't believe Sharapova was knocked out in the first round.I know she has become an unforced error machine but usually she finds a way to come out on top. Glad I didn't take her +1100 future or whatever it was.I was seriously considering it at one point
Clijsters steamrolled through her first round match as expected. No other real upsets on the womens side
Mens side going as planned. With the hit on Karlovic right off the bat I was considering trying to hedge out my clement bet for a profit before the match starts but it seems that Blake is being hammered so I couldn't hedge off the bet without a loss so I will just let the clement bet ride and see how it goes.
I think I am going to do a parlay tomorrow with Soderling, Tsonga and one or two other players. Should be easy money.Will look over the rest of tomorrow's matches tomorrow once I have thought about it some more
Hopefully you guys are having a profitable day 1

Ya that sucks about Clement.Guess I shouldn't be surprised that everyone is betting Blake.People always bet Blake and those people always end up losing because he is a bum. Wish I could get out of that bet right now because I am not feeling as good about it as I did yesterday but I will just let it ride since I won the Karlovic match at least.
Looks as though there will be showers here and there today but it won't be a totally wiped out day.
If you parlay Soderling, Tsonga and Venus williams you can get odds around -153 which is pretty good. I admit that I am kinda on the fence about adding Venus in this parlay but if you just parlay soderling and Tsonga you get around -340 which is a bit to high. All 3 SHOULD win but who knows. Going with the parlay of the 3 though.
Will look at the rest of the card in a bit. Don't know if I will have any additional plays as of yet

I haven't heard anything about a Soderling injury. Have you heard something Tailmypicks? Could explain his price...
Del Potro is supposedly injured as well but won his match so who knows about all of these injuries.

went thru his twitter acc, no mention of any injury. He retired in his last match so he must be slightly injured.Although that might be to save himself for the Open. Anyways 1.17 is pretty good against granollers.

ya he probably didn't want to risk injury there and get ready for the Australian Open. Really good price at 1.17 but I figured I would parlay it with Venus and Tsonga to reduce the odds.All three should hopefully win. Do you like anyone else?

Verdasco lost the first set. Was a -1500 favorite in this match. SHould win in the end but that can't be a good sign
