EP36's Tennis Things I THINK I THINK

[EaglesPhan36]

Ginepri serving lights out. If this set goes to a tie break, just get a feeling that the winner of the breaker may roll in the 2nd set. Muller not quite as good on-serve today.

[koscheckbaby]

Ginepri has been way more steady with his serve, but Muller takes the tiebreak. Really, it feels like a tiebreak is an absolute coinflip. A lot of times the guy who is serving better loses in the tiebreak or the person that looks to have the momentum loses.

[EaglesPhan36]

Both guys serving a bit worse in the 2nd set, but Muller by far having more issues.

[EaglesPhan36]

Muller dominates the 3rd set. ATL continues to be good to me. Need Isner to complete a parlay.

[beefcake]

My man Muller! Guessing Anderson will be a 1:2 fav vs Giles..?

[EaglesPhan36]

Better yet, what's the O/U for that one ... 23 or 23.5? See Ram is a major play for all the TI people over Hewitt. Poor track record when the majority there back the dog. One to think about. Even though I have Isner to complete a parlay, I hope this shit dick loses.

Nieminen +175
Parlay: Youzhny + Monfils [-111]

[Brian891]

Good luck with your plays! cant wait til u.s. open.

[EaglesPhan36]

I'm a little sad this year having been at the Open last year. Fond memories and easily my favorite Slam. Recommend anyone who lives in the Northeastern US to suck it up and attend this event once in their life ... you will not regret it.

[EaglesPhan36]

Fognini blew chunks today.

[koscheckbaby]

I'm chasing lately due to bad baseball luck. I actually went all-in on Cilic this morning. My logic was when are you gonna get a top talent against a challenger level opponent at -130? I was hoping his struggle with Knittel was him getting used to the court. Thank God, he came through for me. I imagine betting on Cilic isn't a way to make money usually. LoL.

Florian Mayer owns Juan Monaco career wise. And this is in Germany. I'm shocked no one is playing it. I guess, I'd rather have faded a guy like Kamke than a clay courter like Monaco.

[tevari]

i can never gauge how monaco will perform. i tend to avoid all of his matches.

[EaglesPhan36]

For ATL today ...

Harrison +135
Hewitt-Ram Over 20.5 [-128]

[noober]

Anyone from Atlanta to give us an update on the weather? Weather.com shows 10% chance of rain for the next 5 hours.

[EaglesPhan36]

ATL remains my bitch.


Hamburg, meh.

good luck with your plays.
what do u think about monfils win?
thx

[Boxing Champ]

Good Luck EaglesPhan...Gonna tail you on these.. Thanks

[EaglesPhan36]

hello, good luck with your plays. what do u think about monfils win? thx

I think he is the better player on clay for sure, but French vs. French sometimes doesn't go as planned. Still, I would be surprised if he lost to Simon, but he's been an ass clown before ...

[EaglesPhan36]

Oh Youzhny, you roller coaster SOB .. finished off a 3rd set tie break after blowing a 4-1 lead in it and giving Cilic match point at 6-5. Let's go Nicky Mugs!

[koscheckbaby]

Very lucky victory for Youzhny in that tiebreak. Cilic was the better player when he wasn't performing his usual string of UEs. In the tiebreak, Cilic handed him a 4-1 lead. Then, Cilic tied it up, missed a putaway, and then a match point let cord.

[koscheckbaby]

I'm kind of surprised Cilic has success on clay. He moves like such a slug and has issues getting to low balls with his height, doesn't appear to get his serve in at a high percentage.. So many UEs. He gives up on balls too.

[tevari]

dont think any player has cost me more over the last year than youzhny.

[EaglesPhan36]

Cilic hasn't had much success on any surface in 2011. Probably the most disappointing player of the year IMO.

[koscheckbaby]

Cilic hasn't had much success on any surface in 2011. Probably the most disappointing player of the year IMO.

Howcome? I mean, clearly he's got talent. But he doesn't come off as a guy that should win clay court tournaments and his serve doesn't seems steady enough to win the faster courts. He also doesn't cover the court that well and seems to have trouble managing his height. He seems like a poor man's Del Potro with Del Potro hitting harder and covering the court a little better.

[koscheckbaby]

61 shot rally between Monfils and defensive Simon

[EaglesPhan36]

I should say on Cilic, he's had some decent results .. but ever since he made the quarters at the US Open in 09 and the Aussie semis in 10, he's disappointed based on his talent.

[koscheckbaby]

Simon plays tennis like such a goddamn pussy. The sad part is it's working

[koscheckbaby]

Monfils is a dumb black asshole. Simon is doing nothing but playing defense and Monfils being a POS is just whacking everything out. This is going to be over quickly with Monfils pea brain not being able to adjust.

[koscheckbaby]

Simon is such a ******* snake. He plays nothing but boring defense. But on the big points, he hits a winner or a big serve.

[EaglesPhan36]

Is this the first time you've watched Simon? That is his game. Make your opponent make extra shots and hope they make errors. You either hate it or loathe it. Appears you hateroathe it.


Under is boned. Monfils will win this match IMO, should have done better in the 1st.

[koscheckbaby]

I've bet him before and didn't notice such a lack of offense. He actually does have a big forehand and good backhand, but he doesn't pull the trigger unless he gets a real short ball

[koscheckbaby]

I was reviewing Monfils match history. It seems he loses a set in a lot of his wins

[EaglesPhan36]

Mugs does it the hard way, but at least the parlay hits.

Adding this because I am stupid ...

Verdasco -145
