Good luck today EaglesPhan

I'm on Stakhovsky this morning.

Good value, surface suits him, I watched his match against Marchenko and he dominated from start to finish, he's also used to that dungeon looking second court and had a match on it, whereas Cilic hasn't.

noober · 11-10-10, 04:57 AM

Ljubicic is a good play on this surface.

Yezzir · 11-10-10, 05:07 AM

I'm not watching that Stakhovsky match anymore, what a mugs match and a loss of $30.

yeah it's over. I have him too. Cilic will win guaranteed. I need to have the option to live bet and i'd be getting payouts weekly.

The annoying thing is that Cilic is there for the taking.

He's not playing well, his 1st serve% is low, but Stak is playing just as poorly.

Tell me about it. Both players had trouble holding serve early but it's Cilic who continues to get the point when it counts. I already knew how this would end after the 4th game. Oh well. I done til tomorrow.

Yezzir · 11-10-10, 05:57 AM

3 set points Stak.

He's been much better this set, great 1st serve %. He needs to take this now.

Cilic saves one with a good 1st serve.

Stak choking it away, down to 1.

Yezzir · 11-10-10, 06:00 AM

Brilliant return, 1 set all, game on.

Cilic has been awful all match, so we have a chance here, Stak needs to serve as well as he did that set, gave up 0 bp's and his 1st serve was at 74% and with only 2 unforced errors.

Bring it home Stak-man.

If Stak keeps up his level, he'll win, he outplayed Cilic massively that set, but the worrying thing is that he outplayed him so much, but only just won it.

Yezzir · 11-10-10, 06:06 AM

Broken 1st game, unbelievable, fukk these cunts.

Mikail · 11-10-10, 06:06 AM

Game over!

Not yet, this is Cilic we're on about, and he's mental.

Yezzir · 11-10-10, 06:17 AM

Ok, NOW it is over.

EaglesPhan36 · 11-10-10, 08:32 AM

Never mind .. too late to get wager in.

[PARIS] ISNER +110
Rematch of Basel with Llodra where Isner prevailed in three sets. This one won't be for the weak at heart as you never know what Llodra is going to do as far as making a match a "Bob Villa Special." Still, all things being equal, Isner's serve is bigger and better and suited to this surface. Llodra's opener against Starace was not very impressive despite the scoreline as he had a lot of issues getting his first serve in. Llodra has also had difficulties stringing together successive wins, which rates this the time to take Big John again and hope he's not a Big Stiff.

Wilforth · 11-10-10, 09:30 AM

Looks good but I think Isner will have a tougher time here than in the last meeting.

EaglesPhan36 · 11-10-10, 09:43 AM

[AACHEN CHALLENGER] SIJSLING -135
Even though Reister is the home standing German here, Sijsling seems the one to take here as the Dutchman is in superior form. He's here off a title last week on this carpeted surface in Germany. That means his travel was not devastating and it showed in his opener as he won in straights over Begemann. Reister meanwhile struggled to put away Novak Djokovic's brother in three.

beefcake · 11-10-10, 09:58 AM

Surprised youre not fading Donkey today EP?

Hey we might need to add isner to the list of A-Hole tennis players...I talked to a guest at my hotel who was staying and she is from Greensboro and she works at a mega-gym/spa and she said Big John comes in there alot. She said he is an absolute prick and treats people like he is the second coming or something. Apparently his whole family is sorta like that..demanding as hell and pulls the "Do you know who my son is?" crap to the employees.
Anyway good luck on the challenger today..With the season winding down Im ready for a break from tennis!!

EaglesPhan36 · 11-10-10, 10:10 AM

I'm kind of not surprised by that beef. Isner looks like one of those guys who says all the right things to the media to portray him as a nice guy, but he looks like he could be a prick ... just sayin'. Thought about Bellucci, but he's so inexperienced on this surface and money all to Donkey-denko. Decided to skip although I would never back the Donkey at the price.

beefcake · 11-10-10, 10:14 AM

I seriously debated whether to play Fognini for .5 unit on the ML...but I will pass...I will be playing him on the +5.5...I think he can hang with The bulldog..

EaglesPhan36 · 11-10-10, 10:41 AM

No pop on the serve Isner. Great day.

DMB40 · 11-10-10, 11:09 AM

how about gasquet +600 worth a shot?

beefcake · 11-10-10, 11:19 AM

Ep I was scanning the line movement in knoxville and I saw that Ryne Williams price was dropping at 5dimes(he is playing de voest)..I did some digging and realized why..Pretty impressive resume(for a young college kid)...another young buck looking for a scalp with his coaches and family right there in his cozy little bubble..
Kinda shocked that a Wild Card kid line is dropping that much for a challenger event..he was #8 in the ITF junior rankings..I say he is worh a go at +250..down from +325

Also found a link to live scores there on twitter..http://twitter.com/knoxchallenger

EaglesPhan36 · 11-10-10, 11:26 AM

Can't say that I would back that as more than a dartboard shot. de Voest has been pretty decent lately. Do think I will take a piece of Kuznetsov at +170.

Don't think so personally. Gasquet was very fortunate to beat Mahut.

oh_lol · 11-10-10, 12:10 PM

Come on Fognini, got a bet on and it'd be nice to win back the money lost from last night's tennis bets

beefcake · 11-10-10, 12:13 PM

Fog Hat is playing out of his mind right now..Can he keep it up?

beefcake · 11-10-10, 12:18 PM

1 set to Foggy!

EaglesPhan36 · 11-10-10, 12:20 PM

You should be sitting pretty on the handicap at least if he keeps the sets within 6-2 even in losing.

beefcake · 11-10-10, 12:33 PM

yep locked that up ...Took him for points SU...Didn't have the balls for $$ for real

oh_lol · 11-10-10, 12:36 PM

I took Fog @ $7.00 for the win.

A win here would be a HUGE turnaround for me

beefcake · 11-10-10, 12:45 PM

Hope you get it Oh...Rootin for ya..

Holy Mary Mother of God...Berdych is a pick vs Donkey Doo Doo tommorrow...Sign me up...

oh_lol · 11-10-10, 12:52 PM

Thanks.
Also agree Tomas is a good line right now. Too bad all my monies is tied up in bets lol
