Stacocakes French Open Thread

**Stacocakes** · 05-24-10, 11:13 PM

Here is my parlay for today. I don't recommend many to follow it. I think I may be making a mistake and you will see why haha

Parlay Roddick/Querrey/Safina +104

Ok hear me out here. One the parlay has very good odds. Better to lose a bet getting plus money then to bet a big favorite. Second, Date-Krumm is older then dirt.I think she used to play tennis with Jesus back in the day. She is 40 years old!!! Plus she has some injury problems having retired in her last match. This has to be Safina's for the taking.Make me proud my lady

Best of luck tomorrow guys

**tailmypicks** · 05-24-10, 11:15 PM

do not pick bartoli, fatass cant move, i saw her last match against zakapalova and she looked horrrrrible.
zaka was hitting winners left and right and that was my 5th straight loss on a match involving bartoli.
she might get thru, but the price is too high for an elephant on clay.

**tailmypicks** · 05-24-10, 11:15 PM

have the exact same parlay staco

**Stacocakes** · 05-24-10, 11:39 PM

Nice TMP let's do it

**EaglesPhan36** · 05-25-10, 12:08 AM

Roddick & Querrey both scare me tomorrow. It's not like they are playing world beaters, but still they are not great on this surface. I am playing the Roddick OVER instead of a side. Hoping to see lots of holds of serve and Niemenen should win a set I THINK.

**Stacocakes** · 05-25-10, 12:20 AM

Roddick had a decent run last year at the French Open. I don't see him winning the tournament or anything but he should be able to win a couple matches here.Neiminen is not good at all so I am not really concerned about Roddick's lack of clay court play. Querrey has been not to bad on clay this year. A couple of the tournaments he went out right off the bat but he had a couple winning streaks on clay so that should give him some confidence here. If he was playing against a decent player then I may think twice about it but Ginepri is brutal. I agree that both Roddick and Querrey will be good fade material in the next couple of rounds but both should be able to get past the first round

**JNic** · 05-25-10, 06:29 AM

definitely right on Roddick, the serve looks effective on Chatrier. Roddick just with a low unforced error count looks like he will pull this out in straights, will get the win at least

**Stacocakes** · 05-25-10, 07:19 AM

Hmm parlay isn't going as smooth as expected. I can't believe that Querrey is about to go down 2-1 in sets to Ginepri.Have got to be kidding.

Monaco loses as a -1000 favorite. Line was at -700 or so and was continually pounded up to -1000 over the last two days. Wow

**Stacocakes** · 05-25-10, 07:21 AM

Safina up a set and a break.The match I was the most unsure about of the three is so far in the best shape

2 bps Roddick Cmon

**Stacocakes** · 05-25-10, 07:24 AM

Ginepri up 2 sets to 1

**EaglesPhan36** · 05-25-10, 07:25 AM

Not that I thought he was going to lose to a qualifier, but Monaco was another over-valued clay court "specialist" by price. Some of these prices we're seeing here as pointed out are just ridiculous. Monaco played great in the South American clay court swing, but has been real average the rest of the year.

Told ya I didn't feel Querrey today - if you noticed too, that was one of the few high chalk favorites that did not get pounded or at least hadn't when I was looked last night. His price had actually dropped.

Safina might be one to watch out for, I thought if she played well early she had a chance to surprise - which again is weird to say about a two-time finalist at RG.

**raydog** · 05-25-10, 07:26 AM

get in chat cakes you fukk so i can bitch at you a bit about this fukking parlay pal

**Stacocakes** · 05-25-10, 07:27 AM

Roddick gets broken.Unbelievable

**Stacocakes** · 05-25-10, 07:31 AM

Ginepri breaks querrey in the fourth set. Is anyone watching this?Is Sam injured?

**Stacocakes** · 05-25-10, 07:31 AM

Looks like you were right about avoiding both Americans Eagles.

**Stacocakes** · 05-25-10, 07:39 AM

I don't understand how Querrey is getting killed here.He has 61 winners to 33 unforced errors.Usually when you see a stat like that you would think the player is playing well. 14 aces to boot

Down 4-2 in the fourth set.Looks like its over

Roddick is having his problems as well

**colout** · 05-25-10, 07:41 AM

Anyone like Marc Gicquel +198?

Marc Gicquel played his last match back in Miami (24.3.2010), where he retirement. He should be fit for fight again. Marc Gicquel is a better player than Pere Riba, and has also beaten okay cray player this year (Almagro, Petzschner and Bolelli)

**Stacocakes** · 05-25-10, 07:46 AM

Roddick down 2 to 1 in sets as well now

Querrey loses 6-2 in the fourth set to lose the match 3 sets to 1.Unbelievable

Prime example of why parlaying these guys is definately the way to go in these tournaments. Roddick and Querrey were both slightly above -400 and one has already gone down and the other is on his way. Alot better to lose an even money parlay basically on these guys losing then a -400 straight up bet.Would be crying right now

**Stacocakes** · 05-25-10, 07:47 AM

Colout definately a no play for me on Gicquel.

**Stacocakes** · 05-25-10, 07:54 AM

Roddick has been matched at 1.06 or -1667 on Betfair. Yikes

**Stacocakes** · 05-25-10, 08:03 AM

Safina going to a third set. Nothing has been easy today it seems.Could lose all three of the games in the parlay haha

**birdmanweezy** · 05-25-10, 08:26 AM

some dude was in a thread of mine at covers bragging that roddick today was the best value hes ever seen in tennis and saying i was stupid for not seeing the value

**EaglesPhan36** · 05-25-10, 08:27 AM

Schwank is another substantial favorite who is in trouble. His price was also ridiculous. I should have played some of these dogs just on principle alone.

**Stacocakes** · 05-25-10, 08:28 AM

Tiebreak for Roddick in the fourth set to stay alive

**Stacocakes** · 05-25-10, 08:30 AM

Birdman Roddick can still pull this out but he was definately the play.Wouldn't say it was the best value ever but it was the right play.He is the better player but things happen

Agree Eagles.Schwank should never be a -500 favorite ever or whatever he was

**Stacocakes** · 05-25-10, 08:38 AM

Roddick wins the fourth set. Gotta think he takes this match in 5 now

**EaglesPhan36** · 05-25-10, 08:39 AM

Yep. I agree.

**JNic** · 05-25-10, 08:41 AM

i still think nieminen can easily win this 5th, its still a toss up imo

**beefcake** · 05-25-10, 08:42 AM

All these big favs are riding their career clay court record which is what the books are going by,blindly playing all dogs might turn out to be profitable..

**Stacocakes** · 05-25-10, 08:47 AM

Roddick's net play is hard to watch. Should also stop trying to execute a drop shot because he can't do it

**Stacocakes** · 05-25-10, 08:48 AM

Did they seriously just turn to the Safina match.What the **** is happening here

**TomaCro** · 05-25-10, 08:50 AM

I go for Malisse today.

**EaglesPhan36** · 05-25-10, 08:57 AM

Schwank has battled back to even in the 3rd set at 5-5. I think he was down 5-3 or something along those lines. He might pull this set out. Not that I care.

**Stacocakes** · 05-25-10, 09:01 AM

Safina just lost to Date Krumm. Unbelievable

**JNic** · 05-25-10, 09:01 AM
