    Hit a Verdasco/Wawrinka parlay. Nice way to end a bad day. Tennis was good for me but college hoops wasn't. Thanks Murray St.!!!! Monfils got dejected after he lost such a hard fought 1st set and was then broken in the 2nd. He got was mentally and physically tired. Wawrinka was on fire tonight and looked really really good. He plays Roddick next and that should be a great match. So far there will be some good 4th round matches.

      Venus was broken in the first game and down 30-0 in the 2nd. Called out the trainer and just retired. Not a surprise. Easy paycheck for Petkovic.

        Smitch I put your car on Wawrinka tonight.Hopefully if it hits or else you will have to walk
        I wish you would give me a heads up earlier when you do this, so I could get the bodies out of the trunk.

          Henin blew up the parlay but Wawrinka beat Monfils so down just a tiny bit of juice on the day. Could have been worse.

          Nice hit on the parlay muherd. Basketball has been beating me down the last three days as well but it's the pro's doing it to me.

            Did you see that ball that didn't bounce in the Sharapova warm up? Air bubble in the court: http://sports.yahoo.com/tennis/blog/...urn=ten-310644

                Play for Friday:

                Dolgopolov +170

                These two played once in a tight match at Wimbledon last year that Tsonga won. There have been some whispers that Tsonga is not 100% healthy right now and that is the reason for the price movement in this match.I didn't see what this line was at yesterday but still feel that this price might be worth a shot here. Tsonga did go to five sets with Petzschner in the first round so he isn't playing amazing tennis at this moment.

                Was looking at the Cilic/Isner match and the Baghdatis/Melzer match. They are both in a couple hours so I might change my mind on them but I am still having trouble picking a winner in each match. Complete toss up each way. Will probably just stick with the one pick today because when i try to push it and pick some matches I dont' feel that great about I get buried haha.

                Best of luck tonight guys.Let's go Dolgopolov

                  Good luck. Dolgo seems to be a popular pick tonight. As usual, no bet for me on matches involving him. I'm tracking him for the first month to see what shenanigans occur. If anything on this match, I'd lean slightly to the over ... but you never know.

                    Hey Staco, where did you read of this injury on Tsonga?

                      I think it's kind of always a whisper when people don't feel Tsonga has played up to his ability that he's carrying some injury. I don't think there is anything wrong with him other than he's still not quite 100% match fit in coming back from last year's injuries. I actually liked Tsonga tonight to use in parlays, but I can't bet on Dolgopolov matches - promise I made myself.

                        Yeah I'm also liking Tsonga here. He is home crowd fav too!

                          I've just heard about Tsonga injury concerns on other messageboards.As always the words have to be taken with a grain of salt.

                          Raonic gets the first set over Youzhny. A good tennis player from Canada hasn't happened for a very long time.

                          Soderling a bit sloppy in the first giving back his break but he gets the first set in the end.He also just got the break in the second now which is good

                              Youzhny was broken right back. Up 30-0 and lost 4 straight including a double fault to lose the game.

                                Break Tsonga already. Horrible start for Dolgopolov. Horrible pony tail as well for Dolgopolov

                                    Youzhny just got broken to lose the 2nd set 7-5. This match is over. Russians are so sketchy.

                                        Are you watching the Youzhny match?He just broke but from looking at the scoreboard no service game of his own has been easy

                                            Who just broke? They are on serve in the Youzhny match. Youzhny sucks balls. Raonic is playing well tho. His forehand is good. However, when he plays a real top player he will prolly get his ass kicked.

                                              Youzhny broke first game of the third set didn't he? Maybe I am one crack. Thought the scoreboard said that

                                                    Has been two bps for soderling for like 5 mins on the scoreboard

                                                    Youzhny can be shady I agree. Comeback here isn't out of the realm of possibility

                                                        Oh Wow! Youzhny held and won the 3rd set. Should have won the 2nd and almost home free. But he's a cheat and it's the other way around now.
