Shari's tennis plays

**apeterlives** · 08-16-11, 12:11 PM

nice leans so far today sharlataan 2 for 2 so far with the comeback by pennetta

**shari91** · 08-16-11, 07:11 PM

Nice to see my first play back come through. And since it involved a Frenchie and the Berdbrain it almost feels like winning 5 plays. Hope everyone did well today.

**EaglesPhan36** · 08-16-11, 09:43 PM

Yeaaaah Shari is back. People need someone else to talk to about tennis besides my idiot ass.

**apeterlives** · 08-17-11, 12:58 AM

Not much opinion, but I think Schiavone should win.

**FR3SH like UgHH** · 08-17-11, 09:14 AM

Im already on her, just wanted to get ur opinion.

Any opinions on mens matches today?

Imo monfils goes down early today.

**sharlataans** · 08-17-11, 09:15 AM

Have not looked deeper today, feel tired. I am passing today

Imo monfils goes down early today.

I also think that Gael will have some trouble against Dodig. As we could see yesterday Dodig had no problems against Gulbis and today I bet he could take at least set or two from the French.

Also Karlovic - Almagro is an interesting matchup. I will go for over 24.5 here because Karlo is in good form. Has to go to couple of tiebreaks IMO.

**tommygun** · 08-17-11, 09:57 AM

Monfils will beat Dodig in 2 sets.

**wikkidinsane** · 08-17-11, 10:17 AM

Damn i didnt know they had a tennis board still lol

It just depends on what lines are available when it's time to feed them through. If the lines aren't there at that time, then they won't show up in the book. Unfortunately there's some issue with my IP when I try to connect to a certain program to grab lines so I can't even do it late at night if/when they're finally available to be grabbed.

Thanks Shari. I wish they would give a little more love to the tennis lines and options in the sportsbook, but hey, beggars cant be choosers.

You just wait until the US Open begins

There will be picks. There will be threads. There will be people posting threads for every of their 15 picks in one game day. Mirar Baseball will write Haiku. There will be blood.

**robert_wrath** · 08-18-11, 08:45 AM

What do you guys think about Schiavone MoneyLine today (+140)*5Dimes?

**sharlataans** · 08-18-11, 10:35 AM

Verdasco changed conditioning coach, buffed up and looks like it helps

**sharlataans** · 08-18-11, 01:58 PM

Unnatural ending by Verdasco, he was booked to lose

**shari91** · 08-18-11, 02:10 PM

Just too hard to bet on him. He was bordering on what was a play for me price wise and I skipped it. In hindsight (obviously) I should've just said, ok it seems it's going to be close so let's take the over but no way. I really can't trust him at all. Male version of Ivanovic for me.

**JBT** · 08-18-11, 03:23 PM

So Shari... does Kohlschreiber take Monfils tonight?

**saske** · 08-18-11, 03:50 PM

no way!!! monfils will destroy him...

**JBT** · 08-18-11, 04:19 PM

Will see... will see

**apeterlives** · 08-18-11, 05:12 PM

anyone watching ferrer-simon what a crazy game ferrer saved like 6 or 7 match points and took the 2nd set then in the third set 3 breaks in a row

i mean three breaks back and forth now simon is up 3:1

Day of rollercoasters... first Nadal-Verdasco and then Ferrer-Simon. Can we expect something similar from Fed-Blake match?

**apeterlives** · 08-18-11, 05:51 PM

doubt it diesel fed seems to be making blake a late night snack

next draw thoughts--
joker > monfis
fed > berd
probably means semifinal fed-joker going to be a great semi not sure who to take

simon < murray (murray has 6-1 h2h and has beat him twice this year but that was on clay)
nadal > fish (but want fish to win)

I actually bet on Simon to win. Ferrers style of play does not impress me anymore.

**MUHerd37** · 08-19-11, 02:22 AM

I'm liking Stosur to beat Sharapova today. Anyone with me?

Womens tennis... I feel every womens tennis game can go either way unless its one of the williams sisters.

**FR3SH like UgHH** · 08-19-11, 08:11 AM

sharapova is 7-0 against stosur i just read...

how could stosur pull this off?

**jdrb** · 08-19-11, 08:20 AM

Stosur has no chance. Forget form here, Sharapova's just a terrible matchup for Sam and the h2h record shows that. Their last meeting in Rome tells quite a bit. It was Sharapova on her worst surface against Stosur on her favorite surface and Maria just smashed her off the court. Can't see Stosur pulling it off, Maria will just exploit Sam's useless backhand all day.

**tevari** · 08-19-11, 08:22 AM

IMO the match is on stosur's racquet. her first serve % will dictate which way the match will swing. but yes, the h2h is a bit perturbing if you were to back stosur

**saints1856** · 08-19-11, 08:41 AM

Sha-Sha-Sha-Shaaarrrraaaaaapova!

(sung to the tune of My Sharona)

**wikkidinsane** · 08-19-11, 09:15 AM

Dudde stosur is gonna get blown away literally. She cant handle all that power. No one woman should have all that power

In womens tennis anyone could win man. Were the matches close? Or did Sharapova always dominate? How have both been playing recently. You should look at more factors before placing a bet.
