EP36's Tennis Things I THINK I THINK

Pew Pew · 03-22-11, 04:44 PM

I use 5dimes for tennis props though they only have good props late in the tourneys not early.

Even though Patty won, still boycotting the WTA....

EaglesPhan36 · 03-22-11, 04:50 PM

LoL. You gotta learn early if you bet WTA, it's never gonna be easy to watch or keep up with. That's why you never lay heavy chalk in WTA ... unless you like losing money quick.

got rochus +104.....midget needs to get his stuff together

EaglesPhan36 · 03-22-11, 06:35 PM

Rochus

reformed · 03-22-11, 06:39 PM

one second I am happy rochus won but then I see makarova cant hold serve to save her life.

beefcake · 03-22-11, 06:55 PM

Come on Czink..Break her!

beefcake · 03-22-11, 06:56 PM

Oudin might be a good dog depending on who she plays in the main draw

EaglesPhan36 · 03-22-11, 07:40 PM

Hantuchova. That's probably gonna be a Maalox special too.

ATP MIAMI: DODIG +110
I'll bite on this one. Dodig against Golubev and Golubev is the favorite? Golubev who is 3-7 in his last ten matches. Golubev who is 3-7 in his last ten on this surface. Are we rating his head-2-head win over Dodig one year ago here that highly vs. his current form? Dodig has been decent this year at 11-5 and he's basically beating guys he should beat and losing to guys he should lose to. So long as he is able to get his serve in, give me the dog price here on the player who is in better form this year.

stop copying my picks

HANESCU +105
I looked in for the sign from the cashier and she gave me the signal for the spitter. Do I trust Hanescu? Not particularly, but on this surface ... you're giving me plus odds against a guy in Bogomolov, Jr. who has not won a main draw ATP match on an outdoor hard court since July 2009. Hanescu's record may not be much in 2011, but he's battled some of the top players and acquitted himself well even in defeat. He's 2-4 on hard courts this year with losses to Gulbis, K.Anderson, Fish & Dolgopolov.

YOUNG +110
Tell ya what, "The Donald" has shown tremendous guts in qualis this week, nothing bigger than surviving Dancevic yesterday in three. Young looked dead in the water in the third, but rallied for a thrilling 7-5 3rd set win. He draws Istomin who is in miserable form with a 3-6 mark. He's lost 6 of his last 7 on this surface. Young is never wildly consistent, but he's shown some promise last week and again here with two solid qualifying wins. Istomin might be the better overall player, but confidence is with Young and that may carry him through.

Hey EP, what do you think about Jamie Hampton today -185?

EaglesPhan36 · 03-23-11, 10:25 AM

Seems fairly solid, but a pretty high price for someone who has not consistently put it together yet on the WTA main draw. Her opponent won a hard court title this month on the ITF circuit. Can see using Hampton, but would probably parlay it with something else rather than go that heavy on one play.

birdmanweezy · 03-23-11, 10:40 AM

good luck

Sheez449 · 03-23-11, 11:24 AM

Thanks for the input EP. On second thought, im staying away from Hampton in this match...too risky, especially with an opponent in good form. i just put a small wager on this parlay:

Vandewaghe -150
Dulko -200
Cornet -200
Hanescu -110
Young +110

pretty nice payout if it hits...lets get this moneyyyy...

EaglesPhan36 · 03-23-11, 11:29 AM

Dodig puts Golubev to bed 6-0 in the 3rd.

reformed · 03-23-11, 11:54 AM

i seriously think sometimes these lines are made for complete squares. those who will see that golubev is ranked 20 spots higher and jump on him at a relatively cheap price.

iceman8847 · 03-23-11, 12:08 PM

Hanescu went from +105 to -135

beefcake · 03-23-11, 12:58 PM

Donkey Doo doo about to go down again!

EaglesPhan36 · 03-23-11, 01:10 PM

That Hanescu price has been all over the place. Again, I don't put much interest in line movement unless we're talking about MASSIVE movements in which case I would just avoid matches.

Tomic also bit the dust as a big favorite. What a putz.

beefcake · 03-23-11, 01:30 PM

I'm already going to be all over Somdev in the 2nd round vs Raonic if he wins today...The swinging Indian has finally come around and Raoinc is due for a big upset loss..i see +300 in the cards.

beefcake · 03-23-11, 01:31 PM

Date-krumm is way overpriced today as well..Not saying she will lose but whack line no doubt..

Been eyeing off the same matchup. Hope your odds prediction is right!

brandoc · 03-23-11, 03:46 PM

Hanescu really going about this the hard way - just finish him off already son!

brandoc · 03-23-11, 04:07 PM

Hanescu serves for the match at 5-4 up and gives the game away to love... total retard.

EaglesPhan36 · 03-23-11, 04:08 PM

Always something inherently dirty about Hanescu. Not watching save for the scoreboard - but he loses his service game at love with a chance to serve out when Bogomolov had only won a handful of points off his serve in the 3rd set. And now giving it away in the final game too.

Don't enjoy betting him, but he is useful in spots and this looked like one.

reformed · 03-23-11, 04:10 PM

wow what a choke job by hanescu

brandoc · 03-23-11, 04:14 PM

that one really hurt.

EaglesPhan36 · 03-23-11, 04:16 PM

Meh. I was kind of expecting it in the back of my mind. Wouldn't have put it past him to have taken a dive there at the end. Kept thinking the whole final set, sure would feel better with an extra break.

beefcake · 03-23-11, 04:16 PM

The spitter FUKKS us again...

EaglesPhan36 · 03-23-11, 04:19 PM

I probably need to put him on my no-fly list, but he fukking comes up with enough wins as a short priced dog sometimes that it always entices me in the right situation. At least the Donald is off to a good start so far.

beefcake · 03-23-11, 04:19 PM

WTF happened to Old Man river today??...Got his doors blown off by A shit ass Italian..

EaglesPhan36 · 03-23-11, 04:34 PM

And here comes the Donald I know and loathe. Up 4-2, blows the 1st set.

PingPong · 03-23-11, 04:39 PM

should have been up two breaks

EaglesPhan36 · 03-23-11, 04:52 PM

Oh well, 1-2 today. Guess that evens out more for the week after yesterday's nice day. Need to remember Istomin's matches, I rarely wind up on the right side and should avoid.
