TennisBabe's '10 Picks

**TennisBabe** · 08-07-10, 02:44 PM

To me that match can go either way right now with a slight edge for Pennetta. Her price has gone up and right now I would not lay that juice. I'm actually thinking of taking Kuznetsova.

**limitation** · 08-07-10, 02:48 PM

Thanks for the advice. I think I am gonna sit this one out. I like Pennetta but not at the price where I have to pay a lot of juice.

**TennisBabe** · 08-07-10, 04:33 PM

Leaning towards Nalbandian tonight. No play yet though.

**blackbeSSt** · 08-07-10, 07:11 PM

not sure if you played nalbandian or not but it looks to be a winner too!

**TennisBabe** · 08-07-10, 07:29 PM

Nalbandian has lost just 1 set (last night) since coming back in July.

**JNic** · 08-07-10, 08:17 PM

very impressive, i didnt know he skipped wimbledon to focus on davis cup. he will be a huge favorite over baghdatis, i'm guessing -250 range?

**Mirar Baseball** · 08-07-10, 08:36 PM

Forgot to say thanks for Baghdatis earlier today.

Ditto!

**blackbeSSt** · 08-08-10, 06:22 AM

nalbandian at -307? im guessing thats a no play huh?

**TennisBabe** · 08-08-10, 10:13 AM

I don't think that I play the juice in that match. I'm shocked how much love there is for Radwanksa today.

**isles71** · 08-08-10, 12:30 PM

**Fthenorm** · 08-08-10, 01:37 PM

Either Bagh or Kuz will win...hopefully the former

**Mirar Baseball** · 08-08-10, 01:54 PM

if there's a retirement (let's say, Marcos gives up at 2-6, 0-3*), will any of your bets on Baghdatis get action?

**colout** · 08-08-10, 01:56 PM

I think u are on the wrong site and u are gonna be killed here pal.. plus Baghdatis has got a food injury.. I'm gonna sit back and enjoy the match, hope u cash this!

**TennisBabe** · 08-08-10, 04:36 PM

A bad first set for Baggy and a horrible tiebreaker. Don't regret the plays though. Wish I had gone a bit larger on Kuznetsova

**necro** · 08-08-10, 04:47 PM

Kuznetsova will be a winner!!

ATP MASTERS ROGERS CUP
TO WIN
Jurgen Melzer

I always go with a wildcard to win these events. After a good review of the draw I felt the "bottom right" (DJOKOVIC'S QUARTER) was the weakest of the four. I wanted to select someone from the upper half of this quarter as I see Davydenko as the weakest link but really could not find an edge. I was thinking hard of making a case for Baghdatis/Chardy but just couldn't find the stomach. Melzer has a good draw in the first two rounds even though he might end up facing two locals. He will then be matched up against Djokovic most likely at which point he could end up out of the tournament or pull off another upset and if so the draw will be very open for him into the semifinals.

Go crazy...

**tommygun** · 08-09-10, 03:39 AM

Wouldn't touch Melzer with a 10 foot barge pole, I hate melzer always loses against people he should beat, def. on my blacklist. Maybe go with Querrey over Russell and Bartoli over Medina Garrigues

**TennisBabe** · 08-09-10, 08:53 AM

11 PLAYER PARLAY
Kevin Anderson, Sam Querrey, Nicholas Almagro, Alejandro Falla, Jurgen Meler, Aravane Rezai, Shahar Peer, Marion Bartolli, Vera Dushevina, Yaroslava Shvedova, Victor Hanescu

NOTE: Hanescu was a last second add. He by far IMO the weakest link in this parlay.

**blackbeSSt** · 08-09-10, 08:59 AM

LOL! love the big ass parlay Babe! have you ever hit a 10+ before?

**Retibol** · 08-09-10, 09:00 AM

Im not trying this again

GL to you anyway

**beefcake** · 08-09-10, 09:04 AM

Good luck with the parlay..

I'm about 1 for 74. But that "1" carries you for a long time

i hear ya! i wish 5dimes had a tennis parlay like football/basketball where you can choose how many loses you can get to still win.

**tommygun** · 08-09-10, 09:28 AM

hehe im following u with this one

**Mirar Baseball** · 08-09-10, 10:41 AM

Victor looks OK for the 'weakest link'

**TennisBabe** · 08-09-10, 11:10 AM

What a joke by Falla. Back to the real stuff

Jarkko Nieminen -105
