EP36's Tennis Things I THINK I THINK

[EaglesPhan36]

Thursday Challengers ...

Salzburg: Janowicz -130

[EaglesPhan36]

Adding ...

Salzburg: Becker +100

[EaglesPhan36]

I think every time I can remember betting Becker he pulls this shit. In command up a set and a break and then flops. Memo to self: No more Becker.

[showtiime]

unlucky ep, had the becker / fischer, brands / zemlja overs so yesterday was good for me

like anything today

[EaglesPhan36]

Zemlja -130
Will be playing that in the morning and then probably look over the Challenger Finals slate. I shyed away from two dog winners today there. Liked Reynolds and Beck, but decided to sit out after losing in the morning. Maybe Berankis over Stakhovsky potentially too, but not sure.

[EaglesPhan36]

Adding ...

Sao Paulo: Bachinger +130
Bachinger is 0-2, but not without a chance to advance still depending on all the results today. After seeing Sela get whooped by Machado in straights, I have a tough time backing him as a larger favorite. Bachinger tries hard, needs to win the big points.

Saturday ...

Sao Paulo: Beck -165
Bigger chalk, especially for me since you know I rarely play them this big, but I had Beck winning this tournament, so I am sticking to my guns. Stebe can certainly push him, but I think Beck prevails in the end.

Oh yeah ... ATP World Tour Finals start tomorrow!

good thing too, im tired of gettin reamed in college hoops.

[EaglesPhan36]

Beck should have been in the locker room already with a win. Blew another break lead in the 2nd like he did in the 1st except this time he paid for it, losing a tie break.

[EaglesPhan36]

What a fukkin loser. Had mini breaks twice in the final set tie break and blew both of them. Congrats to Stebe for staying the course and beating this schmuck. Sela v. Stebe for the title.

[erkanua]

I like both Tsonga's and Fish's +4 games on this faster court than Paris in which serves will be more effective..how about you EP?

[EaglesPhan36]

Nadal-Fish I want no part of ... no telling Nadal's form. No telling if Fish's hamstring will hold up. Rather watch and go from there. If Nadal is fresh and good, he can cover that spread.

Only thing I might play tomorrow is the over in the Murray-Ferrer match at 21. If I was taking Tsonga by the way, I'd take the 4.5 and pay the little extra. Gotta look a little more later on.

[tevari]

Fed in straights imo.

[EaglesPhan36]

Think I am gonna sit tomorrow out. Just too many question marks health/form-wise to open. Rather see a match and then move forward.

[moses millsap]

EP, you need 4 more picks for the Legends contest, see you at 9-1, but if you don't make side & total bets on tonight and tomorrow's game, you'll be disqualified for the week.

[EaglesPhan36]

Thanks dude! Did not even know I did that well. Got to pick all four sides/totals for tonight and tomorrow at least.

[EaglesPhan36]

... Fish looks healthy enough today, stretching Nadal in the 3rd on-serve at 4-4. Not particularly sharp for either guy, but would not have expected much more than that.

[moses millsap]

No problems, just checked leaderboard and saw you up there with no pendings, so wanted to let you know. Won it a couple weeks ago and used the 5000 pts toward an Ipad (xmas gift). Surprised Nadal struggled so much today. Got a weird feeling Murray may struggle with Ferrer, but not sure if I will play it. GL if you play anything.

[EaglesPhan36]

Yeah of course the four I picked will all be losers, but at least a chance LoL. Still thinking about tomorrow. Was wanting to play Murray-Ferrer over, may still do it just to get my feet wet in London.

Not really surprised that much by Nadal. Long layoff, would not have expected him to be sharp.

[EaglesPhan36]

Doubles: Linstedt-Tecau +135
Singles: Ferrer +4.5 [+100]

Futures
Federer +180
Berdych +2400

[Pride]

murray usually rolls ferrer on the hard courts. how come you are choosing to go with ferrer here?

[Pride]

i didnt watch any matches yet and im wondering how fast the courts are before i place a bet. is this a slower indoor court similar to paris?

[erkanua]

faster than Paris but it is slow you're right

[EaglesPhan36]

I like the way Ferrer played down the stretch on the indoor stuff and he's shown an ability to push Murray to be at his best on hard surfaces before. I mean it's a flip of the coin at the end of the day. With Murray's hamstring still needing to be tested, it's worth a stab for me ... Ferrer either competes or gets blasted.

[eSTOXX]

David will win this match.

GL on Singles: Ferrer +4.5 [+100]

[EaglesPhan36]

Damn doubles play had all the opportunity in the world to win the opening set. Blew it trying to serve out and then re-rallied to take the set after blowing a lead in the tie break.

[EaglesPhan36]

Yeah buddy. Doubles play hits.

[Pride]

Doubles: Linstedt-Tecau +135

that was a horrible number. pinny had them at +170 and 5dimes had them at +180

what book do you use?

[EaglesPhan36]

That was 5Dimes line last night when I went to sleep.

[EaglesPhan36]

Cash some Ferrer as he wins straight up.

[eSTOXX]

David will win this match.

GL on Singles: Ferrer +4.5 [+100]

[and24]

congratz guys. what do you have for Djokovic vs Berdych EP?

[EaglesPhan36]

Nada. Just gonna see how it plays out. Got to see how healthy Djokovic is here.

[Pride]

he says he is 100% but that doesnt exactly mean much

[EaglesPhan36]

Tuesday in London ...

Parlay: Federer + Llodra/Nimonjic [+120]
