will Petzschner & Meltzer walk all over Seppi & Marreo?

[robzilla]

I dont even know the guys that the Germans are playing. Im thinking they should win in straight sets.

Seppi and marrero beat llodra and zimojnic...3rd seeds. Petzy and melzer should be dogs

[EaglesPhan36]

Melzer isn't German.

Seppi and Marrero looked SOLID against Zimonjic and Llodra. Please don't go by not knowing them. They are GOOD

They arent even ranked in the top 40. Seppi is ranked 90 something in doubles.

This match looks like it wont even be played til Friday anyway.

I'd venture to say 95% of bettors on tennis couldn't name you a half dozen doubles teams. This is another way to lose money quick during Slams if you don't do some homework. The Llodra team was the best team left in the field after the Bryans lost early and had been the in-form doubles duo on hard courts this summer. Beating them clearly means you have a shot.

austrian, german....same thing.

having a shot and having an advantage are 2 different things.

I don't see -350 as a good price for a doubles match at this stage outside of parlay usage. If you lay -350 for one match by itself that is tough to justify. Look at the Bryans losing early in this tournament as massive favorites. Petzschner-Melzer have not been in good enough form on hard courts mostly to feel comfortable with this IMO.

i got it for -300. But now I dont feel good about my bet.

[EaglesPhan36]

It'll probably hit man, just think it's pretty risky especially considering all the upsets this tournament. Good luck!

[robzilla]

Its looking good. 6-1, 3-1...
I feel like the spirit of Nicky Santoro is with me.

Looks like you dodged the upset today, today it was Bhupathi-Paes that got KO'ed. Nice work.
