been yelling that since my childhood
tennis parlays are where most of us lose our points. Why not make it more enticing?

**EaglesPhan36** · 08-19-10, 10:40 AM

Hell I'll hand enter the damn lines SBR.

**WIZARDOFBEANTOWN** · 08-19-10, 11:18 AM

never much 2 pick form for tennis , boxing and mma

**beefcake** · 08-19-10, 11:18 AM

Agree, I wanted to tail Tennisbabe on Azarenka but at 10:30am that line was not offered...But the mens noon games were ..WTF?

**HeeeHAWWWW** · 08-19-10, 03:28 PM

Horrible lines there anyway, trying to beat 30c is pretty tedious.

**EaglesPhan36** · 08-19-10, 03:30 PM

It's DSI lines, but it's basically like betting with a free play since you get points for posting. If you lose them, no harm no foul.

I just don't get the problem, now the lines for matches taking place tonight are gone? Boo.

**JNic** · 08-19-10, 05:39 PM

no it's all good, they took dsi's feed last night and it had everything 3 hours ahead of time. they still had all the matches but they just locked early. they usually have everything though

**Dr.Gonzo** · 08-19-10, 08:10 PM

Why don't they just take the feed from pinnacle?

They won't lose. It's just retarded.

**EaglesPhan36** · 08-20-10, 09:29 AM

4 out of the 8 matches for today listed right now.

Either 2 or 3 days ago they didn't have one women's match. Not 6 hours before or 1 hour before. I'm not sure why there seems to be so many issues with the tennis feeds but you'd think there would be a fix for it by now.

**JNic** · 08-20-10, 10:14 AM

yea i know what happened that day too, they had all the first round matches up. but it didnt carry over all the 2nd round matches, the people who had the byes. that was annoying but doesn't happen everytime

**yisman** · 08-20-10, 02:04 PM

nothing to bet on now

**PingPong** · 08-20-10, 04:38 PM

they're up now

**EaglesPhan36** · 09-01-10, 09:27 AM

Nice lines today. This is a GRAND SLAM event.

**SBR Lou** · 09-01-10, 09:31 AM

Maybe if some of you guys wouldn't make full limit bets after matches start due to time changes, we'd feel more comfortable hanging for you round the clock.

Well there's our answer.

**EaglesPhan36** · 09-01-10, 09:35 AM

Seriously SBR, Why Can't You Get This Right?

We got World Cup soccer lines up at the SBR book with no problems. Every day. All the matches.

Daily lines up for all the major sports.

CANADIAN FREAKING FOOTBALL!

There's a MAJOR in tennis right now [US Open] - probably the most popular because it's in the USA - that most people are betting on and the lines aren't even up today with matches starting in half an hour?

Tired if bitching about this, but you've got not just us tennis heads wanting thus, you've got people who only wager Grand Slams betting on tennis right now.

WHY CAN'T WE GET THIS RIGHT?

I've heard the "feed" excuse, but the feed doesn't ever seem to leave out the other sports ... so CAN WE GET THIS RIGHT? What is the major hang-up. Someone with some power get on this.

**EaglesPhan36** · 09-01-10, 09:37 AM

No offense, but that really isn't our problem is it? Shouldn't that be something you guys get done right? Not trying to be argumentative, but .... really. Books would just ban those players or break their knee caps, not punish everyone who makes bets with them for the indiscretions of others.

**EaglesPhan36** · 09-01-10, 09:38 AM

You can re-link me to the tennis sub-forum if you wish where Lou posted an answer in another thread.

In some previous slams, lines weren't offered from the quarter finals on taking into account time changes and the fact that unfortunately our feed isn't automated to that extent. It's not the 1st time I've acknowledged that we aren't as well equipped to deal with tennis and soccer as we are major sports. We continue to put up tennis knowing there's a demand for it, but when more than X% of the sub-forum take clear shots on lines, we need to be more conservative particularly with overnights.

I'll finish sifting through the wagers and take a look at the tennis slate for today, but that's the best I can do.

**jojo85** · 09-01-10, 09:54 AM

haha good stuff

btw soccer is the biggest game on the planet

**ZXCVBNM** · 09-01-10, 10:38 AM

**tarantula** · 09-01-10, 10:40 AM
