gl to everybody else, especially shark!

Shark79 · 08-05-08, 04:34 PM

Thanks boys!!

Specially Crazyl for making my day !!

EaglesPhan36 · 08-05-08, 05:14 PM

Boy you know the more I look at this, the more I think Isner at +135 might be the play of Safin. Safin showed flashes of being a hot head choke artist again in Cincinnati. Hmmm. If Isner has his serve dominating - I think he wins... maybe. Anyone on this match?

Shark79 · 08-05-08, 05:17 PM

Not me Eagles ... I respect Safin ... even though he has cost me some $$

EaglesPhan36 · 08-05-08, 05:25 PM

I got burned by him during the Wimbledon run, waiting for the implosion ... but since then ... it appears more of the old Marat is surfacing. He's not losing to pigs or anything, but just the way he's lost, etc & the emotion he has shown. Plus he's not great vs. big servers. I mean if Isner doesn't have his serve working, he's toast - but if it's working - Safin might have trouble getting a break. Not that Isner will do much with Safin's serve either. Could be some 7-6 sets.

Gotta stay away from these small tournaments. Save your cash for some olympic bets instead

EaglesPhan36 · 08-05-08, 05:32 PM

Smacktually ... think I will avoid Safin-Isner. Going instead with Delic at EVEN odds over the DUDE, Dudi Sela. Played a close 3 setter 2 tournies ago & Sela could be entering fatigue territory.

Shark79 · 08-05-08, 05:35 PM

Vemic taking 2nd Set 7-6

EaglesPhan36 · 08-05-08, 05:50 PM

OMG. Grosjean is a huge steaming pile of shit. About to blow a 5-0 lead in the 2nd.

Shark79 · 08-05-08, 07:24 PM

as ur avatar is not a good reason not to understand your current situation

EaglesPhan36 · 08-05-08, 07:56 PM

Delic was the solid call instead of wasting the moola on Safin/Isner - Safin about to win in straights.

Xavier Malisse anyone in the night cap?
+210

CrazyW?

Nice avatar by the way.

SBR Lou · 08-05-08, 08:11 PM

Interesting to see how Del Potro/Fognini do in doubles.

EaglesPhan36 · 08-06-08, 12:42 AM

Hits keep on comin'! Donald Young punked Haas in straights at +575. Malisse & Moya now in the 3rd. Looks like Safin or Roddick's tourney to lose.

You serious? I didn't check that score, dude Donald Young was embarrassed by Monfils then he goes and owns Haas?

Stacocakes · 08-06-08, 12:46 AM

I haven't checked the lines for this tourney so forgive me if I am wrong, but did you say that roddick is in this tourney?Why the **** isn't that goof at the olympics and why did he pull out of the tournament last week if he was going to play this one?What the heck is he doing?

SBR Lou · 08-06-08, 12:51 AM

"Lucky loser Dusan Vemic of Serbia earned a second round clash with top seed Andy Roddick after battling to a 3-6, 7-6(5), 6-4 win over American qualifier Sam Warburg in two hours and 54 minutes."

Stacocakes · 08-06-08, 12:58 AM

Wasn't roddick injured last week?

Yeah he was unable to play vs whats his face, was it Kohlshreiber?

Maybe he was just scheduled in this event and hasn't withdrew yet.

Stacocakes · 08-06-08, 01:01 AM

Roddick is going to lose in the second or third round of the US open anyways so I don't know what he is saving himself for
Maybe he can find a forehand and backhand during his time off here
By the way, I ****ing hate roddick

Tier II events can be tough to predict, I would not lay much especially this week and I actually like betting favorites in tennis. A few will let you down, but most times especially in later rounds of tourneys you have the best of it.

As opposed to the top teir events that you have predicted so well so far
