My Ranting and Raving Thread

[koscheckbaby]

Instead of hijacking, I'll just bitch about my bets or matches here.

Stepanek saves 0-40 to go up 4-1. I was gonna be pissed with Brown got that break. It was extremely lucky that he got 2 of those points.

[koscheckbaby]

Stepanek hurts his ankle but is now up 5-2 with Brown serving to stay in the match. No doubt he will do it, since a serve is all he's got

[koscheckbaby]

An undeserved hold by Brown. Now Stepanek to try and serve it out

[koscheckbaby]

BSN loses. Stepanek takes the match.

Lol I love it! Goddamn GGL played like a bitch today I'll join in this thread. I wanted to jump through the screen and shot his kneecaps out.

[koscheckbaby]

That one has to hurt. I didn't watch it, but saw that he was basically getting a good percentage on both 1st and 2nd serves, whereas Devvarmen was struggling to win points. Yet, somehow he botches both tiebreaks. Shit luck

[koscheckbaby]

Stupid dick Troicki won't retire and push the bets. He's clearly hobbling out there. This is like Nadal against Ferrer at the AO. Think about the bettors and ******* retire.

[koscheckbaby]

I really want this Volandri dead. Stupid piece of dog shit plays as bad as possible yesterday. Now, today, when I bet on Granollers, he's covering the court like he's David Ferrer, catching up to all the dropshots, and even getting some lucky breaks to boot.

[shari91]

Love this thread already!

[koscheckbaby]

I really understand why people call Volandri a fixer after today. His game looks really good. Yet, he has some really shit losses and performances. I've never seen THIS guy. Stupid Italian ******. I'd love to piss on his face

[koscheckbaby]

God, I want to hurt this guy so badly. Everything he's doing. Forehand, backhands, one-handed backhands, dropshots, it's all ******* working

[koscheckbaby]

It's times like this where I''m grateful I live so far away from where these matches take place. I honestly don't know what I'd do if Volandri was within my crosshairs. I want to hurt him so badly right now. Stupid Italian dick played out of his ******* mind.

How are there not common occurences of violence against athletes that **** bets? I don't understand it. I am enraged right now. I can't be the only one. And I'm sure I had way less at stake.

[koscheckbaby]

I might be done betting tennis after this. This upset me on a whole different level. I bet on Volandri yesterday and watched one of the worst matches known to man. Seemed easy to take a guy that looked halfway decent yesterday against him. Yet, no. Volandri has to act like he's an awesome tennis player. What the **** was yesterday about then?

[koscheckbaby]

With my luck, Soderling will play at a top level today and beat JMDP.

If that happens, I'm done betting on tennis. I can't stand watching these fruitcakes go from playing like shit to being awesome and vice versa, usually at my expense.

[shari91]

My contribution: Sara Errani is pissing me off. Hradecka is playing out of her head, which is excellent for her, but Sara is making some silly errors and is losing her serve because of it. I can't be too angry because Sara's made me some good money lately but it's still frustrating to watch.

[shari91]

Doesn't help that the announcer is a jackass. "Errani is coached by Aravane Rezai" when an Italian guy is sitting next to her at the coaches time out. 10 minutes later "Oops sorry - Errani is coached by Pablo Italian last name"

[koscheckbaby]

A split day. Petzchner/JMDP parlay hits, but Granollers/Verdasco was a ******* dud. I should have known better. Granollers isn't that good and Verdasco is inconsistant as hell and constantly beats himself.

I don't think I like any matches tomorrow, so I can relax. Petzchner is the favorite over Mayer and I kind of think he should take it. But as EaglePhan said, Petz is inconsistant. He could lose in straights.

Davydenko goes from looking like he's gonna lose two days ago to beating Cilic. Cilic must have pulled one of his UE fests. Stepanek may be worth a play as the dog, but I won't touch it.

I think Petzchner wins the BMW open.

This is like John McEnroe's tennis betting blog.

[brettels]

Verdascoe is an asshole! Love him if he comes back tonight!

[koscheckbaby]

I see Volandri is playing Lopez tomorrow. I looked at the stats and Lopez owns Volandri. With Lopez rolling on clay lately, holding his serve super easy, do I dare bet against Volandri again? Meh, maybe not. But Volandri does have a very breakable serve usually. Seems like a terrible matchup for him.

That head-2-head is outdated. Haven't played in four years. These are the times where I start to worry about backing Lopez as a favorite. This is a match you don't worry about Volandri fixing, but you worry about him deciding to try hard. This is still not a desired surface for Lopez, while Volandri plays almost exclusively on it. Good one to skip IMO.

[koscheckbaby]

Florian Mayer was a big serving dick right now. Saved 0-40, which would have made this match competitive. I hate that shit

[koscheckbaby]

And stupid dick, Mayer, cheap serves his way to a victory. The whole match, his serve couldn't be touched

[Tsonga]

How are you liking Raonic? Not bad for a guy with just a serve?

[beefcake]

Mayer will beat whoever wins the other semi..

[koscheckbaby]

How are you liking Raonic? Not bad for a guy with just a serve?

He has the perfect matchup. Simon friggin chokes away his serves, while Raonic holds his own as good as anyone. Raonic is gonna win a lot of matches just based on the serve game. Shitty thing if you want to watch quality tennis.

[koscheckbaby]

Mayer will beat whoever wins the other semi..

Probably. He looked good out there, especially serving. Davydenko is hit or miss with his serve. I'm sure if it came down to straight tennis, Davy wins. But Florian got a lot of cheap points today. That could be the difference.

[Tsonga]

The quality driven Raonic will meet Versdasco in the clay court match I've been waiting for.

[brettels]

verdasco woke up on the right side of bed today! thank you rain delay

thanks for the win dasco

[koscheckbaby]

Been away a few days. I made my first tennis bets today. I played Berdych a bunch, since I don't understand how he's only -275 against Granollers, who was the beneficiary of an injured Troicki and fatigued Davy.

I am going ahead with a JMDP play, even though people like Cilic with JMDP potentially hurt. Still, I'm sure can win this match just on mental toughness. Cilic has his days where he just mails it in and hits tons of UEs.

[EaglesPhan36]

Looking forward to some choice curse words today.

[koscheckbaby]

Looking forward to some choice curse words today.

My bets today of JMDP and Berdych were just the way i like it, stress free. Thought about Maria, but women players are bad for stress

[shari91]

Even when you're calm you still make me giggle.

Happy to hear you had a good day!

[koscheckbaby]

Llodra is an ugly, French ******* BSD that ruined my day. He showed zero skill in that match. When tennis was being played, he lost the first set 6-1. Once it became a serve fest, you knew he'd win it since he owned the cheap points.
