If you had to pick a major dog - Dubai 2/24/10

**EaglesPhan36** · 02-23-10, 02:34 PM

Troicki or Ljubicic.

**cappinthepigs** · 02-23-10, 02:57 PM

I might go Berrer as well. Nicky hasn't look too good his last couple..

**Jrod124** · 02-23-10, 03:26 PM

Baggy at -548? Joke. Give me the Indian

**beefcake** · 02-23-10, 08:32 PM

I agree with Jrod..no freakin way the bagster should be -548

...indian sensation all the way...

**tailmypicks** · 02-23-10, 09:11 PM

dev varman and ljubicic

**Glitch** · 02-23-10, 10:48 PM

berrer

**kingsr** · 02-24-10, 03:25 AM

None of these dogs will win except possibly Lubijcic

**kingsr** · 02-24-10, 03:25 AM

Oh and I forgot Davy, might have money on his opponent, so he can't be disregarded

michael berrer

**Dr.Gonzo** · 02-24-10, 04:43 AM

Davydenko will wipe the floor with Berrer.

Someone expects Lubijcic to do something because he is being steamed.

I would lay Baghdatis myself.

**Mark L** · 02-24-10, 04:55 AM

Tsonga just went from -350 to -275 on Bodog...Lubijcic getting hammered.

**Dr.Gonzo** · 02-24-10, 06:21 AM

Davydenko retires after dropping the first set.

Hope you bet against him at 5dimes.

My future is in the toilet.

Bah. Didn't pull the trigger on Berrer. I play at 5dimes too so it would have cashed.

**jon13009** · 02-24-10, 08:07 AM

Baghdatis is trying to come back with some strong early results. Of the picks, he would be the one I would take; but he has looked good so far this year....

agreeing and reiterating obviously- had already said berrer and someone makes a good point as to one reason why

click peoples posts if you really care that much to find out if thats what they're doin but thats not how i roll

**RogueScholar** · 02-24-10, 12:15 PM

Gotta be Berrer, he's been the hottest lately, facing a Davy that doesn't look 100%.

**EaglesPhan36** · 02-24-10, 12:29 PM

Tipsarevic was the correct answer. Andy Murray is suffering from Juan Martin Del Potro syndrome from 2009. Got his ass whooped by Federer in Australia and took months to recover. Murray appears to be on that road. Maybe he'll win the US Open.

**Boner_18** · 02-24-10, 01:20 PM

Wow, a few that picked Berrer, would have cashed at 1 set action joints. None of us said Tipsy. If you had bet all of them you would be up 6.71 units with one unit on Ljubicic pending. And this is with crappy prices from a free line service. Fade the faves.

**Boner_18** · 02-24-10, 01:23 PM

+10.25 units if you got 5dimes closers (+9.25 if Ljuby loses +12.5 if he wins).

**Jrod124** · 02-24-10, 02:51 PM

and the favs that did win had to battle. Cilic was tested in the 2nd set breaker, Baggy needed 3 to take care of Dev, and Djoker was tested as well.

**ringemup** · 02-24-10, 03:00 PM

unfortunately takin big dogs in tennis is not a brite idea at all...though the biggest dog ive hit in tennis
was +3000 when soderling beat nadal in the french last yr it happens evry once in a moon before that was prob g.simon
beating federer at a ATP match in toronto yrs ago

**Jrod124** · 02-24-10, 03:24 PM

oddly taking Soderling was prolly a stupid bet. Going against Nadal at the French? I mean nice hit but come on, why on earth would u have played that?

In smaller tournaments taking dogs isn't a bad idea, look at today as a example no favorite won easily and a handful lost. U get to the 2nd round and quarterfinals of this ATP 500 events and the lower ranked players can smell the cash. Guys like Tipsy and Berrer then money means alot more to them. U think Murray cares about going going out in the 2nd round of a ATP 500 event? Of course not, but Tipsy is so excited he prolly can't sleep tonight. Berrer is another guy, who plays mostly challengers. The matches mean more to them therefore u can see some close matches and they pull the upset. In majors, chalks parlays are great. Even in ATP 1000 events they work. But at 250 and 500 levels it just isnt a good idea.

Cheers

**ringemup** · 02-24-10, 04:27 PM

soderling was on fire goin into the match jus looked like he was unstoppable n for only a unit i gladly risked for unbelievable value at 3000, haha.

**Jrod124** · 02-24-10, 04:32 PM

Hmm, Nadal beat him 1 and 0 about a week ago, he lost to Starace easily in the 3rd 2 weeks ago. Then needed breakers against Kevin Kim and Denis Istomin to get to the 3rd round. Hardly would call it on "fire" But good hit
