Also. oudin at -1.5 sets at +200 the way she is playing looks like a GREAT price

I firmly believe that Petkovic can stay with Dementieva. Elena gave up 10 break points and was broken 3 times against Pavlyuchenkova. Pavlyuchenkova actually gave up less break points (6) but Dementieva was able to take advantage on 5 occasions to win 6-4 6-4.

Petkovic is pretty solid on her serve so I think she can definately cover the +6 spread. However, the juice is too much to play here so I've done the same thing that you have, backed the total to finish over 18.5 games at -112.

Petkovic looked absolutely terrible yesterday in her win over Rezai. Petkovic didn't win the match, Rezai lost it. She won in 3 sets and looked terrible. Rezai had 2-3 straight break points in almost all of Petkovic's service games in the 3rd set and just couldn't get that final point. There were at least 3 straight service games for Petkovic where she was down either 15-40 or 0-40 and still won the game because Rezai was that terrible. If Petkovic plays like that today Elena will smoke the shit out of her. That's one problem to think about tho, today is a different day and could be a different Petkovic. I still love Dementieva.

BTW, I have both Dementieva and over 18.5

nice break!!

**MUHerd37** · 02-12-10, 12:43 PM

Surprised Dementienva survived that service game. Petkovic is controlling every single point it seems.

**MUHerd37** · 02-12-10, 12:54 PM

Dementieva barely held again. Her first serve is terrible. She can barely get one in. Petkovic just looks like she's gonna roll today.

Anyone got Elena at -900? Huge upset in the making

**beefcake** · 02-12-10, 01:11 PM

thought about petkovic at +400 first set

Just give me 10 games this set dammit...

**MUHerd37** · 02-12-10, 01:39 PM

On serve in the 2nd set 4-3 Dementieva. Over 18.5 is a winner as long as nobody retires!!!!!

**MUHerd37** · 02-12-10, 01:47 PM

Dementieva broke to win the 2nd set 6-4. Anybody's match now.

**MUHerd37** · 02-12-10, 02:38 PM

Dementieva wins 3-6 6-4 6-2
