Kleybanova line at the greek is now +5000. How many freakin people followed me on this? Greek might go broke if she wins the Open. I know at least $1,000 has been wagered on her at the greek via people sending me PMs that they played her. I wonder how much more to know that line so far down.

Frederick Gil +200
Risk 1.00 to win 2.00

Ernest Gulbis -200
Risk 2.00 to win 1.00

For now...

I am thinking of playing Hilary Barte. She is a big dog against Cibulkova who has a VERY poor record in US hard courts and is coming off a horrible performance. Barte was granted a local wildcard and is coming off a solid junior year @ Stanford. She played Oudin last year as a wild card in this tournament and got blown off the court. Have about 30min to decide. Might end up pulling the trigger if Gulbis holds on and wins

Goat Milk · 07-26-10, 04:38 PM

Gulbis will win. Lacko blew 5 BP in 1 game. He has no confidence left.

I've been looking at this line ever since the WTA US Futures lines came out. I was debating for about a month if I should actually waste money on it, and tonight I decided on doing so. I normally don't like making futures bet before the draws come out and even this far ahead because of injury but in this case I have to. I think she will have a good US hardcourt season and if that happens this line will come down drastically. Probably what made me go over the top on this and actually play it is the fact that Serena is hurt and her health come US Open time might be a serious issue

Alisa Kleybanova +7000

Would like to thank post Mirrar for correcting my own line. I forgot the extra zero. It is +70000 (this line is now down to +5000)

TennisBabe · 07-26-10, 05:26 PM

Not that I know of

blackbeSSt · 07-26-10, 06:17 PM

jeebus the other 2 chicks aren't playing to very late tonight right?

TennisBabe · 07-26-10, 06:27 PM

If it's any consolation, it was not I my friend. She's +10100 here so if I was going to play her, I'd take her at this Aussie book with massive tennis limits. But I didn't. I leave the futures up to you and EP for the most part.

TennisBabe · 07-26-10, 06:32 PM

Barte might be getting smoked off the court again this year

Marco Chiudinelli +130
Risk 1.00 to win 1.30

I saw the Chiudinelli-Bellucci match yesterday and Marcos dominated that match and fed off the energy from the home town crowd. He beat a much better player yesterday and I hope he carries that momentum

JPeso · 07-28-10, 11:34 AM

Good start to the day, TB.

Yanina Wickmayer -170
