Stacocakes French Open Thread

haha now the match is suspended

JNic · 05-26-10, 02:57 PM

hahah fognini was just screaming at people, bullshit french bias by organizers

Stacocakes · 05-26-10, 02:58 PM

Kinda looked like a bad move for Fog to want to quit earlier but if all of the other courts have stopped then why bother making this match continue especially if one of the player's doesn't want to. Just looked bad for the organizers and the chair ump there.

MUHerd37 · 05-26-10, 03:59 PM

The other matches weren't at the end tho.

Stacocakes · 05-26-10, 10:50 PM

Not to sure what I am going to do for tomorrow's matches. Might just wait till friday to bet some better numbers. Tried to do a four player parlay to see what the payout would be for tomorrow and it was still -128. Parlaying players even if they are -700 doesn't have much of a return at all.Reallly not worth it. Might just sit back and hope my outrights win tomorrow. Kleybanova has a tough match against Ivanovic. Could go either way really. Hope Kleybanova stays alive.

Do you guys like anything for tomorrow?

at a glance does anyone like seppi or fish to upset???

Stacocakes · 05-27-10, 12:06 AM

Seppi is 2-1 career head to head vs Kohlschreiber. Could an upset happen?It is possible yes. I have never trusted Kohlschreiber enough to bet on him because you really never know what you are going to get from him.

Ljubicic is 3-1 over Fish in their career's. All of the matches were long ago so they don't really mean much.

Both Fish and Seppi are really not that great on clay. If one was going to bet either match taking the dogs would be the definate play. I wouldn't want to back Ljubicic or Kohl as a -200 plus favorite. Both Fish and Seppi haven't been lighting the world on fire coming into this tournament so personally I am going to pass on both matches but to make a long story short, both dogs have a chance of hitting.

Keep in mind that its supposed to rain tomorrow as well so some of your money could be tied up going into friday.That might be something that you would also want to think about before decided to take one of the dogs. Best of luck Lak on your plays tomorrow

Parlaying gonzo and elena.

raydog · 05-27-10, 06:28 AM

my man bags has this shit locked up and mother nature is fukking with my dough

Stacocakes · 05-27-10, 07:12 AM

Rain Rain Rain. Just God's way of telling all of us to go back to bed

Stacocakes · 05-27-10, 09:18 AM

Play is back underway

Kleybanova serving for the first set.Hope she holds on here

JNic · 05-27-10, 09:20 AM

roddick broken twice, awful play. even if he does win he has another shot against gabash or zemlja. i hope he plays ferrer, auto win for ferrer

Stacocakes · 05-27-10, 09:23 AM

Kleybanova wins the first set. Cmon

Dementieva up a break in the first set

Groth is destroying Date Krumm. I have no idea how Date Krumm beat Safina

Roddick has a break as well

Radwanska down a break in the first

Wonder how much play we will be able to get in today before the rain. Already know the Nadal match has been pushed till tomorrow

Stacocakes · 05-27-10, 09:23 AM

Agree JNic I will definately take Ferrer as well if he plays Roddick. Shitty thing is though that the line on Ferrer might be pretty big which could possibly mean a no play on Ferrer.Will see how it goes.

Stacocakes · 05-27-10, 09:26 AM

Roddick wins the first set.I can't believe he has been broken twice.

Stacocakes · 05-27-10, 09:27 AM

Kleybanova with the break in the second set. Sweet

Facing a break point though now

EaglesPhan36 · 05-27-10, 09:27 AM

I can't believe so many people were supporting Ivanovic today. She might yet make a match of it, but anything over -130 on her seems overpriced these days.

Stacocakes · 05-27-10, 09:28 AM

Pain in the ass finding streams for the matches today. Have the Jankovic match on tv which no one cares about

Stacocakes · 05-27-10, 09:30 AM

Eagles I think Ana's play in Rome made everyone forget about how bad she has been for the last year and a half. I don't trust her at all hence why I took the Kleybanova outrights. Figured that she had a good chance to beat Ivanovic. This match is far from over though. Anything possibly in the wta

EaglesPhan36 · 05-27-10, 09:31 AM

What did you end up playing today Staco besides that one?

Stacocakes · 05-27-10, 09:33 AM

Kleybanova gets the double break.

Stacocakes · 05-27-10, 09:34 AM

I have no plays today Eagles.Just hoping my outrights win today.Do you have any plays?

EaglesPhan36 · 05-27-10, 09:41 AM

I parlayed Kohlschreiber + Gonzalez. Looks like Gonzo is pushed to tomorrow. I know some have those as iffy matches, but I don't think Seppi has enough to hurt Kohlschreiber. If motivated, Kohlschreiber can be deadly on this surface if it plays quick still. I liked his opening match. Gonzo is always risky somewhat, but that one I figured I might hedge if I felt like it.

Threw something on Gabashvili last minute this morning. Also went with big dogs in Fish & Ginepri. Ljubicic still has injury concerns and I just had a feeling about Ginepri who actually looks pretty decent over the last couple weeks.

Stacocakes · 05-27-10, 09:47 AM

Nice plays.I don't trust Ljubicic so I hope that Fish bet hits for you. Think you have a good shot at hitting at least one of those dogs.I just don't have the balls to bet on them haha

Kleybanova up 5-0 in the second.Ivanovic just quit obviously

I always like betting Fernando Gonzalez but he was not playing for over a month so I was scared to back him coming into this tournament. If healthy he is definately a good play today

EaglesPhan36 · 05-27-10, 09:52 AM

Yeah. His opener looked decent. Lots of aces and winners. Errors weren't horrible. Dolgopolov is a good player, but not in Gonzo's class if he's anywhere near 100%.

Stacocakes · 05-27-10, 09:54 AM

KLeybanova wins in straight sets

beefcake · 05-27-10, 09:55 AM

Nice one on kleyb,I put a few bones on that future as well>hope she can win 2-3 more and then we get a good hedge opp!!

beefcake · 05-27-10, 09:58 AM

and shedova is winning! Lets hope she can pull it off to make the road easier..

EaglesPhan36 · 05-27-10, 09:59 AM

Looks like Zvonareva is gonna flame out today too. Thought she might do decently here.

Radwanska on the outs too, expected that at some point in the first three rounds but did not have the balls to go against it.

JNic · 05-27-10, 10:12 AM

anybody on fish? im hoping he can do this

Stacocakes · 05-27-10, 10:13 AM

Wow didn't even notice zvonareva was playing now.She is tucked away on a crappy court. Looks like she is about to break back to level the second set but she is already down one set. Her and Radwanska both going out today would open up the draw huge for Kleybanova

Roddick blew another break that he had. How is he having trouble holding his serve against Kavcic

and here comes the rain. Figured it was coming from looking at the sky shots.

Stacocakes · 05-27-10, 10:13 AM

Fish seems like a popular plays.Lots of you guys are on him.Have heard no one liking ljubicic

JNic · 05-27-10, 10:15 AM

well lucky us a torrential downpour....

MUHerd37 · 05-27-10, 10:18 AM

Looks like the rain won't last too long. This might the alien here. Kanepi was playing really well.

EaglesPhan36 · 05-27-10, 10:23 AM

I just need a good 10-15 minutes for Gabashvili to finish his match off at the least. Good thing is there is still about a 4 hour window left for play today based on how late they have played this week.
