Gruel has been steadily backed overnight into this morning. Don't know why either. I also took Malisse a couple days ago at +110 and added some SBR points at +145. Unless there is an injury, I think it's a pretty even match-up.

#284Nadal is going to kill this Mina guy. Wonder if he will even win a game. Mina looks almost exactly like Monfils out there.
Funny they showed the career prize money for the two. Nadal had 29 million and Mina had just under 10 grand hahaComment -

#287Handicap was +/-12.5. I'm with you though, I don't know if he could win six games to cover that in three sets even. Schwank retired.Comment -

#295Was surprised Hewitt won so easily.
Looking ahead to tomorrow I am surprised Chela is a +771 dog to Murray. Gasquet choked the match away yesterday and basically ran out of gas after that so most players could have beat him yesterday. It's not like Murray took charge and looked great. Murray has a 5-1 head to head with Chela so I am sure that helps in making his number that big but still Chela might be worth a shot at +771.That is a very very big number.
Guilermo Garcia-Lopez as a +119 dog to Thiemo de Bakker??? Sign me up. I like Garcia-Lopez on clay and as a dog you can't really go wrong with taking a shot here.
On the women's side I don't see much. I don't think there are going to be any big upsets but with that being said taking a -1000 woman tennis player,even if just in a parlay, is still of little to no value at all. Will pass on that. I know alot of you are going to say Petkovic as a dog over Kuznetsova and I have to agree that it does look like a good play but I have Kuznetsova futures so I am just going to watch the match and hope Kuz pulls through in the end. Kinda scared about that match.Comment -

#300I don't think it's surprising that de Bakker is being backed by the public. People remember his play in Barcelona mostly I am sure and he is a good young talent that just needs that one moment where it all comes together. The guy dominated the Challenger clay circuit in 2009 and now he's stepping up to the main draw. It's an interesting match because GGL's career shows that he's better on the slower clay surfaces, so he needs to hope the rain slowed the courts at RG some. I think it's a toss-up. Probably look at the Over potentially if they keep it in the high 30s. I think this is going to be a pretty decent match. de Bakker's power is what I think could be a determining factor if the courts stay fast. 16 aces in his opener. His serve can be devistating when it is on. That is why I would consider him personally. This is one where I'm going to watch the line movement although I am pretty sure it's all going to be on de Bakker. I may throw him into a parlay - gotta think.Comment -

#304Yeah I hate days with those forecasts. Ties your money up, but if you pass a play - you know the rain will cease long enough for that one to get in. Shoot, I have Malisse pending - could be pending for 2 days, although for some reason the SBR book graded it a win already. Will probably only tie my money up with my favorite play of the day with that forecast which is likely to be a total I think.Comment -

#305I have tried to find something on Chela passing out JNic but have yet to see anything. With tomorrow's play looking in jeopardy due to rain I may just pass on the play all together. Hate playing matches with potential injured players.Best to stay away
I'm not really seeing much to bet tomorrow. Could parlay a couple players but you might have to wait a couple days to cash it so it's probably best to avoid it so you have your money to bet.Comment -

#307Rain here to halt play today. Some of these players must have just wanted to get out of Paris as fast as they could and avoid the rain delays because there have been some lopsided matches so far today. Montanes wins 63 62 61 over Kamke. Tsonga wings 60 61 64 over Ouanna. Sodering 60 61 61 over Dent. Crazy.Comment -
