    I can't believe how Robert played against Fognini? He had to be injured and if you are, retire before the second set.

      Could also be a classic letdown situation for a player that is coming off a huge victory over Berdych. With that being said I have no idea how a player wins only three games in a three set match

        Querrey +138

        Going with my gut feeling here and taking Querrey. Going to refrain from looking at his career mark on clay. This is more of a play against Ljubicic then a play for Querrey.

        Best of luck tomorrow guys. Let's make some money

          Clijsters was up 5-2 in the 2nd set and dropped 4 straight games and Rus is serving for the set. Clijsters is an error machine right now.

              Querrey loses in straight sets. Bah. At least Kvitova won and Rafa is winning so the outright's are still alive. At least one positive on the day

              Can't believe Clijsters lost. Anyone know what her price was?Had to have been over -1000

              Sharapova down a set and in trouble. Just two reasons here why women shouldn't be backed at big odds.

              Rafa is ******* around here in the third set. He's making this match go on longer then it should.Not really happy with that going forward.

                Have not been watching, is he struggling because of these new balls? Or just errors?

                      Sharapova grabbed the second set.Will probably roll from here

                      The Tsonga/Wawrinka match should be good tomorrow. Not really sure who I would take in that match. Possibly Wawrinka as a +115 dog

                      Should be around the time that Gasquet chokes so is it Bellucci this round or will it be the next round opponent?

                          I think I'd favor Tsonga slightly, but probably would not play him if it got much past -135. I think these new balls play into his big hitting style more-so that Wawrinka.

                          Gasquet-Bellucci - think you just go with the dog if you play it. It's a coin flip.

                          Davydenko really should consider hanging it up. Losing to Veic is disgraceful even for his current form.

                            Donkey

                            I bloody love watching him lose. What a piece of work that guy is. Go VEIC!!!

                            Watching Nadal applaud Andujar as he was walking off the court reminds me of what a good guy he is. I've been on the Djoko bandwagon for 6mths + now but really, Nadal is a sweetheart. And him fighting back like that would make me feel really good if I had a future on him

                            But since he's through to the next round, maybe you guys want to cheer for Melzer so I don't piss my futures away??? I really hope the people hyping Rosol before this match were wrong or I made a big mistake obviously not hedging now.

                              I think Rosol might have been hyped some because he beat a couple of French jobbers in route to get where he is today. Gicquel & Vasselin & he beat some out-of-shape fukks in a Challenger [Gonzalez/Benneteau] to win a title. He's done some stuff in Challengers before, but on this level against Melzer, I think Melzer would have to play poorly over the course of the match ... although Melzer wasn't in the best form coming in. Go Jurgen!

                                      Really surprised Clijsters lost. I know she wasn't in top form from injuries and time off, but damn. She was up a set and 5-2 in the 2nd. Squandered 2 match points. You don't expect that from Clijsters in any form.

                                        How's it going MUherd?You making some money so far in the French Open? Still can't believe Clijsters lost today. She must have been 1.01 at some point. Lot's of people lost huge on her surely. Unreal

                                        Looking at the board for tomorrow right now. Not sure whether to pull the trigger on a chalk parlay or just bet a couple matches straight up. Considering Wozniacki and Schiavonne so far. Nice price on Bartoli but i'm thinking there might be an injury there since she did retire during the tournament leading up to the French Open.She has played rather poorly so far in this tournament but the price does seem off. Best to just skip it though.

                                        On the men's side there are some interesting matches. Will be nice to see how Del Potro fares against Djokovic tomorrow. Del Potro not at 100% yet so i'm not expecting him to win but still the odds on Djokovic are very high.No play on that one for sure. Wawrinka/Tsonga should be a good match as will Gasquet and Bellucci. I initially liked Wawrinka and Bellucci but my mind has gone back and forth on both matches all day so I am just going to stay away. I've got an absolutely terrible record in these coin flip matches. Always find my way to the losing side in them.

                                        Going to think about these matches for a couple hours. Will probably end up pulling the trigger on the wozniacki/Schiavonne parlay but considering adding one more player to it.

                                        Best of luck tomorrow guys

                                          Wozniacki/Schiavone +108

                                          Decided to just stick with the two in the parlay. Kuznetsova, Jankovic and Zvonareva will probably all win but the prices are to inflated so will just keep the parlay with two players.

                                          Should be some interesting matches this morning guys.Lets make some money

                                              Del Potro vs Djokovic should be fairly good. I expect Djokovic to win fairly easily tho. Like your Wozi pick. She's 3-0 against Hantuchova. I hope Schiavone can take out Peng. That's a tough matchup tho. All the other women's prices are ridiculous except for the Goerges match. I'm kind of surprised that Zvonareva is that big a favorite. She seems shaky recently and Rodionova took her out last year in the French Open.

                                                  Peng just retired at 2-1 in the 2nd set. Looked like she was having problems breathing. She had been coughing a lot earlier.

                                                      Wonder if david might finally break through this year and win a major? Could be some great value man. The 5 set format might actually help him vs the big 3 I think.He has been so close vs them recently this year.

                                                        Oh my some big upsets today

                                                        Bartoli +299 or whatever she was and she wins. So pissed off. Thought she was injured so I stayed away

                                                        Hopefully you didn't have Stosur in any parlays MUherd

                                                        Wozniacki killed me today.I can't believe she lost.Unbelievable. Judging by the score it wasn't even close either.

                                                        Good thing you guys steered me away from Wawrinka. Looks like he is going to lose this one

                                                        Still can't believe Wozniacki lost

                                                          Tsonga drops the third set.This could get interesting. Gasquet dropped it to.French choke time?

                                                          Wanted to see the Djo/Del Potro match but this Tsonga match is going to go on forever now. Already 6:42 pm there so that is not good

                                                            Tsonga breaks the first game of the fourth set. Wawrinka should have just saved his energy and went home in three sets.Geez

Has cost me so much on clay in the past and now he is having a resurrection or something. Will be good to see Nadal beat down Ljubicic if Ivan manages to hold on here.
