    Against you on this one. It's taken me awhile, but Verdasco is just a guy this year on this surface that it seems cannot be underestimated. I agree as you have said that fatigue is going to bite him somewhere and if he had to play the day after that Kohlschreiber marathon, the price would probably be even further skewed. With a day of rest & preparation on how to manage his injury, I'm taking a chance. Almagro certainly is a solid clay court type, but Verdasco's win over him here last year showed the class difference and it's even larger now after Verdasco's Spring run. The only thing I think that could hold Verdasco back is the injury, but that is why I went with the SBR book on this one that requires two sets for action. My feeling is if the injury is effecting him, he'll go the Tsonga route and quit early. If not, I expect a dog fight.

            Henin wins the first set easily. Stosur is up a break though in the second set. Should be interesting

            Serena easily beats Peer to keep my final women's outright alive

            Ginepri's miracle run comes to an end in four sets vs Djokovic.Nothing surprising there. Melzer beats Gabashvili in four sets. Was impressed with Melzer in his last match vs Ferrer.He had many chances to blow the match and he didn't and that was something that I didn't expect

                                      Anyone watching Verdasco-Almagro? Just curious since I am not as to whether Verdasco looks like his foot is bothering him or that he just got crushed.

                                            Break Verdasco

                                            Almagro just played a great first set. Will be interesting to see if he can continue that play. Not a great start to the second though

                                              Verdasco seems to be moving fine. As always the injuries seem more serious when a player is losing haha

                                                I think whoever had that over bet on this match is going to be a happy man. This match looks like a five setter

                                                  At least it looks like it will be competitive now, IF Verdasco can close this 2nd set.

                                                    I got 2 parlays going. Both have Melzer, Djokovic, and Nadal. 1 also has Almagro. The other has Verdasco, and Shvedova. So if Almagro doesn't win I need Shvedova to win. Watch her lose, would be my luck. I love the price of Federer over Soderling. Soderling of course took out Nadal last year in the semis, but I still see Fed taking this one.

                                                        Dam Stosur +games(around +4 or 4.5) might be the bet of the year in the WTA..

                                                          Question is if verdasco wins this in 5,is he going to have ANYTHING left in the tank vs Nadal,if his fitness is as good as you say,then i would think the public having seen him play back to back 5 setters will pounce on the nadal spread,might be some great value on Fernando ATS in the QF??

                                                            Almagro takes it in 4. Looking good.

                                                              Almagro cashes. Figured Verdasco's run would end sooner or later.Congrats to the Almagro backers

                                                              Agree that Federer does look good tomorrow over Soderling. Lot's of afternoon baseball today so I am going to check out tomorrow's tennis card later tonight. A play that I will make for sure though is either the game total going over in the Dementieva/Petrova match or the match to go three sets.Will depend on which has better odds.

                                                                Dementieva is now +150 tomorrow vs Petrova. Something smells really funny about this match. Money keeps on coming in on Petrova as well since the line keeps on climbing. Definately the play would be Petrova or nothing here.Someone knows something that we don't and is moving the line. There has to be some issue with Dementieva

                                                                    I am tip toeing through the fields of dementia in possibly taking Youzhny tomorrow if it goes over +200. I think that line is overinflated to say the least. I really like Wozniacki tomorrow. I don't know Schiavone's Slam history, but at a young age Wozniacki already has Slam semi and finals experience. Health was the biggest question mark on her after that ankle injury. She seems well past that and she was in superb form prior to that ankle injury. It's taken her awhile to recover, but I think she's got the goods.

I'm not going overboard with the match but this guy is too good to be given +6
