Nah, he definitely won't. He can't get his 1st serve in and isn't capitalising on all of Benneteau's 2nd serves that he's getting the chance to see. Yet another Frenchie screws me again.

So Shari, sorry about how Wawa is playing at the moment but I was wondering, you are going to have more plays today right? Just you are going to post them as the day goes on because I saw a bunch of matches start at 12:05 eastern but I guess you didn't have a play on those matches right?

**Regul8er** · 08-18-10, 11:08 AM

The good news for the SBR community on Wawarinka is that he very well may retire. Following the live scoreboard, Benneuteau is winning games in like a minute to love. I imagine Wawrinka is just walking around out there, most likely with an injury. A retirement would make alot of your days I imagine.

**MUHerd37** · 08-18-10, 11:09 AM

I was skeptical about taking Wawrinka but I did bet a little on him. The guy is done today.

After the week I've had personally, if there's any good karma out there he'll keel over any second now.

Thanks Shari. THat is a 1pm eastern play so I was still able to get it in. Good luck in the rest of your bets.

**MUHerd37** · 08-18-10, 11:22 AM

Any thought on Timea Bacsinszky +6 against Kuznetsova?

**Tsonga** · 08-18-10, 11:25 AM

I was watching Benneteau practice in Toronto last week and he was really working hard....maybe his hard work is paying off. I felt like saying he owed me some $ though....when he beat Fed a while back he killed my month.

Dupe post

**mister bee** · 08-18-10, 11:29 AM

Melzer was beaten in straight sets by Polansky in the first round last week. Was that kinda flukey or is he playable today?

Not really. I think her win against Wozniak had a good deal to do with Wozniak being a complete basketcase right now so it's hard to judge that match. Mind you Kuznetsova's serving % wasn't that hot either so it may be worth a shot if you think Timea can take advantage of those 2nd serves.

**MUHerd37** · 08-18-10, 11:30 AM

Melzer hasn't played very well lately.

**Tsonga** · 08-18-10, 11:31 AM

Polansky played great...and if you did some research for T.O. you would see that Melzer has lost in the first round of that tourney 3-4 years in a row.

Hometown wildcards often play well. I made a lot of SBR points from Polansky.

Yeah, but Polansky played like a man possessed in that match so I'm hoping the fact that Melzer rebounded with a good win over Giraldo means he's shaken it off. Plus I'm fading Gulbis who I can't stand and who had a tough match yesterday which hopefully wore him down somewhat.

**EaglesPhan36** · 08-18-10, 11:35 AM

I'd forgive the Melzer loss to as it was his first back up on hard courts. He's one I liked and passed on which means it is a 100% winner. Those are the only ones I am winning right now, the ones I skip that I liked.

I'm just happy that it looks like I'll finally get a win fading that shitball Querrey. Even though I know TB likes him, I still haven't forgiven him for screwing our bets over at the French.

**Tsonga** · 08-18-10, 11:40 AM

Melzer is worth a shot against Gulbis...I had Melzer with Wawrinka in a few sbr points parlays....but we all know how Wawrinka did today...still hoping for a kolhy win for the round robin

Cool. Thanks Shari. Let's hope he makes up for that wawrinka debacle.

You got that right. I only played the total, thought he'd at least give it two tight sets and a chance but he looked like he just quit giving a shit in the 2nd set because he couldn't whip his serve past Ferrer and like a true shitball, blew a ton of opportunities to break Ferrer back.

**MUHerd37** · 08-18-10, 11:47 AM

Djoker breaks and serving for set! Finally end this match Djoker!!!

**lasker** · 08-18-10, 11:55 AM

Wawrinka screwed me bigtime. What on earth was that?

**MUHerd37** · 08-18-10, 12:02 PM

Wow! Kohlschreiber is rolling Falla!

**blackbeSSt** · 08-18-10, 12:08 PM

oy. i think im gonna take some time off until the actual open. i've been killed these past 2 days from schmucks playing like their fingers are up their butts!

Dementiava/Zaka OVER 19.5 -130 risking 1.3x

**Tommy_de1st** · 08-18-10, 01:47 PM

That bitch Petrova ...

**blackbeSSt** · 08-18-10, 02:21 PM

Yep. Unreal although I knew if it went to the tiebreak he would lose. Even when he was up 4-0 I sat here thinking he wouldn't be able to close it out.

I thinking I'm going to take a break for a few days. It's bad enough I'm staying up all night when I should be getting an hour or two of sleep while I can but to stay up just to lose in 3rd sets just stinks.

**MUHerd37** · 08-18-10, 02:27 PM

Anyone like Soderling over Hewitt tonight? How about Roddick over De Bakker?

**Tommy_de1st** · 08-18-10, 02:32 PM

Shari, you know what I love the most? (if im not gonna play live) I love placing a bet on baseball, go to bed and wake up to see the winner. No stress at all

**keijo32** · 08-18-10, 02:33 PM

today was a bad day for everybody in tennis...

**MUHerd37** · 08-18-10, 03:29 PM

I have a feeling that Kuznetsova is gonna lose. Really should have taken that Bacsinszky +6. Murray just got broken when serving for the set. Was way to careful there. Just hitting the ball and making sure it was in and letting Chardy nail it. Moron.

how about waking up to a loser? ruins your whole day

**MUHerd37** · 08-18-10, 03:48 PM

Murray is fukkin pathetic. He's just softly hitting the ball and Chardy is schooling him right now. This guy just beat Federer the other day???
