Stacocakes · 01-19-11, 02:52 AM

Stacocakes · 01-19-11, 02:53 AM

Masha match going on forever.I just want to get some sleep

Stacocakes · 01-19-11, 02:56 AM

Beautiful Masha wins

Great day to get back into the green here. Parlay hits and both Haase and Verdasco hit.

Hopefully everyone made some money today. From the looks of it I think we all did. Let's get them again tomorrow

Petkovic breaks to go to a 3rd set. I have no idea how she lost the first set 6-2. I have watched the last couple games and Perkovic is nailing this bitch!

MUHerd37 · 01-19-11, 05:52 AM

Petkovic breaks! Up 2-0 now

MUHerd37 · 01-19-11, 06:00 AM

Another break by Petkovic! Up 4-0. Looks like she's gonna be playing Venus

MUHerd37 · 01-19-11, 06:04 AM

5-0 now

MUHerd37 · 01-19-11, 06:07 AM

Petkovic takes it 6-0. I needed that!

MUHerd37 · 01-19-11, 06:08 AM

Joker up 2-0 in the 4th. He's won 8 straight games now

MUHerd37 · 01-19-11, 06:20 AM

Federer down a double break in the 3rd. Federer is looking wild out there.

MUHerd37 · 01-19-11, 06:38 AM

Djokovic wins. Just need Federer now. Djokovic will play Troicki next. Great matchup

MUHerd37 · 01-19-11, 07:00 AM

Federer dropped the 3rd set. Was broken 3 times that set. Monfils up 4-0 in the 4th set. Need him and Federer to close this shit out

MUHerd37 · 01-19-11, 07:14 AM

Monfils won the 4th set 6-2 for the victory. Just need Federer now. Federer doesn't look that great either

MUHerd37 · 01-19-11, 07:22 AM

Simon just broke federer and will serve for the 4th set. Federer is in big trouble. Wouldn't be surprised if he loses this match

MUHerd37 · 01-19-11, 07:29 AM

Simon won the 4th set. Federer is in trouble. Simon is 2-0 against Federer. Both matches were in 2008

MUHerd37 · 01-19-11, 07:58 AM

MUHerd37 · 01-19-11, 08:16 AM

I can't believe that that's the first time Federer has ever beaten him

Yeah. Very good fight from her. I had her on the handicap at +5 too, so that effectively cancelled the moneyline bet and broke me even on that match.

Stacocakes · 01-19-11, 11:09 AM

Wow Federer almost blew that match.Just saw the score right now. Believe that is the first time he has beaten Simon in his career.I think he is 1-3 now.

Stacocakes · 01-19-11, 12:12 PM

Just a quick look at todays matches. Here is what I am considering:

Thinking about Del Potro at -118 over Baghdatis. Lots of stuff up in the air with regards to this match such as Del Potro and Baghdatis's health. I've never been sold on Baghdatis and he continually disappoints, especially in majors. I am concerned about Del Potro's health but he said that he was feeling good in his last match and of course he did look good from the parts that I watched of it. Baghdatis coming off a best of five marathon a couple days ago....Seriously going to consider Del Potro.Going to think about it today.

Was also considering Isner at +118 over Stepanek. Not really a fan of Isner at major's so that might keep me from betting on them here but the line looks really good against Stepanek.

Women's lines for today are unbelievable. Totally going to pass on them. One that did look good was Jankovic over Peng at -138. Jankovic is 6-1 vs Peng in their careers but the majority of those matches were from 2006-2007. Peng was definately the better form coming into this tournament so that has to be taken into consideration as well. Going to think about this one today as well. Not sure how many times I want to keep going back to the well with Jankovic. Worked for her first match but still don't feel very confident about her

Going to think about these plays today and will post my plays later. If you guys like anything let me know.

TennisBabe · 01-19-11, 12:22 PM

I like Del Po today, even though Marcos is playing in his favorite tournament and will have the crowd behind him. I watched the entire Del Potro match and his wrist is obviously fine. Only issue would be stamina if the match goes 5 sets, but Baggy is in questionable shape at the moment anyway.

I am a big Isner fan but I like Stepanek here a lot. I like him so much the short price on Stepanek might scare me away

Stacocakes · 01-19-11, 03:46 PM

Plays for today:

Del Potro -115

Isner +122

Jankovic -144

After some though I am going to go with the three plays I mentioned above. Not feeling 100% about them but 2 of the 3 win and it will be a good day. Best of luck tonight guys

beefcake · 01-19-11, 04:45 PM

Dam Michael Russel is +1900 at 5 dimes...

Stacocakes · 01-19-11, 06:06 PM

Wow didn't really notice that beefcake.He's playing Ferrer not Jesus. Why is that so high?Are you thinking about taking a chance on him?

MUHerd37 · 01-19-11, 06:21 PM

My boy Ferrer is gonna fukk up Russell tonight!!!!
