EP36's Tennis Elbow

[EaglesPhan36]

This thread is bringing my sorry ass some luck. Ito and Llodra just need to finish this off for me. Given up on Russell unless Chela collapses.

At least someone has some luck. Still cannot believe that hack Duckworth beat someone in straight sets in a Slam. Oh well, give me some dead Russians and I will be happy.

Russell really is disappointing. Chela hasn't had to do shit today to win this match.

[kingsr]

kingsr bet365 is a must. Their live betting is second to none.

Thanks Bro...eagerly anticipating the return of AUS/NZ sports! Not long to go...

[shari91]

Can anyone give me some 10pm mst time plays? Bol

I'm not sure what that translates to into Aussie time but a few of us have faded Petrova and Kuznetsova and are on Baugista-Agut. I'm also on Dubois and Juan Carlos Ferrero but I think my good day might skid out soon.

Done with Russell now. Used to love Chela but really thought he'd struggle - even if it had been cold. Not a good result. Hope Stosur loses too.

Yet again Gulbis, thank you for dragging your over privileged ass to a tourney just so I can fade you because for some reason books continue to make you the favourite. Enjoy the brothels, coke and Melbourne strip clubs, you pathetic excuse for a tennis player.

[hawley]

Is Stosur really going to bow out in the first round?

[bmansell33]

Thank u shari its currently 9:43 where i am good luck on ur bets

That trustafarian bastard cost me tonight, I cant believe they named him after Ernest hemingway, he just quits when he is behind.

Looks that way but Cirstea is a choker so who knows. Grand Slam champ struggling at home in the first round against a player who hasn't beaten a top 10 in 2.5 years on the surface. Nice job Sammy you legend.

didn't she admit publicly that the weight of expectation and pressure was too much? or something similar

She might've - wouldn't be surprised. She's a mess of a woman. I saw an iv with her last week where she said she's finally overcome external forces or some crap and I just laughed, remembering that I had bet on her in her 2nd meeting with Kirilenko after the US Open. She'd lost the first against Maria right after the US so I figured that was just getting the honeymoon/media onslaught out of the way. Of course she lost again so since then, she's dead to me. One hit wonder who needs to f off back to doubles now.

[H1Cypher]

Best of luck to everyone

[shari91]

Ito

Best of luck H1

[MUHerd37]

Stosur also lost in the 1st round in Wimbledon last year. Bitch is crazy.

[shari91]

haha I missed this. Sorry he cost you cash. I will never back this guy, ever. My feelings about backing Frenchies are pretty well known on here and yet I still took Llodra knowing that Gulbis would rather be hanging out in the Chanel store than playing in the 2nd round. Hard to get motivated when you're just a playboy who neither needs the money nor will ever be great. Let's just hope the books keep thinking he'll finally come good.

[goblue24]

What are you guys eying for the upcoming matches?

Shari - What do you think about Hewitt? Is there a good chance he can be upset here?

[EaglesPhan36]

Tsonga-Istomin Under 32.5 [-120]
Bed time.

If Hewitt loses to Stebe, that'd probably be a bigger upset than Stosur losing. Stebe's a Challenger player for the most part - and not a great one. Hewitt's obviously past his prime but this would be monumentally huge if he lost to Stebe. Never say never though, but I wouldn't risk my money on it. I was going to say maybe the handicap but I just saw that the odds are +6 $1.60. That's ridiculous. One 6-3 set and your bet is shot. Gun to my head, I'd pass on the whole thing. EP might think differently though (if he's still awake)

haha just saw your bed time post now

I'll stick around in here until I start my SBR shift in an hour... hopefully when you wake up I've had a winner or two

Yeah, I don't know much about Tennis but I thought Hewitt was old in tennis terms which is why I thought he might be a good potential upset victim. However, I didn't know the other guy plays in the minor leagues. I'll stay away from him. I joined the fade train of Petrova though.

[kingsr]

The Canadian is giving it to the Russian! Nice call Shari

Yeah Hewitt's definitely old but the skills are there. Stebe's never had them. Plus Hewitt's at home so that makes it difficult. Again, you just never know but if I were going to bet it, it'd be like $10 for fun. He's too much of a fighter not to give it his all in what could be his last home Slam.

So far so good but you never know with these women, that's the problem. Hopefully though she keeps it up

HE at -300 right now.. $10 for fun as in $1000???

[kingsr]

I have Hewitt 3-0 just for fun. $20

[boondoggle]

as hot as it is..and hewitt is much older...stebe is worth a shot..eh mates?

[gregm]

Tennis gets a reputation as a posh sport, almost like polo but even most of these riders from argentina in polo are not rich and tennis has tons of players from working class and middle class homes, its is really a tough year round sport. People get on him for his lackluster performances and the way he flys around to tourneys in his dads jet, but I thought he would wake up.

I do like this quote from him after his little prostitute arrest, rich as he may be, he is still paying for cooch.

"I say I do nothing" LOL. Sometimes that is the truth

“When I meet a girl, I don’t ask her what her profession is, I don’t ask if she’s a hairdresser or something else. I just meet her. And she meets me. She maybe doesn’t ask what I’m doing. Anyway, if she does ask, I usually lie; I say that I do nothing or I’m a musician or something. Suddenly, the police come and take me to jail, so I spend the night in jail for nothing, really nothing.

[goblue24]

What do you guys think of Over 38 in the Roddick/Haase match? This one is expected to be pretty close right?

[gregm]

as hot as it is..and hewitt is much older...stebe is worth a shot..eh mates?

I like Hewitt in this one, really small odds on him for this. That handicap is not big enough to take his opponent in my opinion.

[shari91]

No Quanger... I was telling goblue that if he liked Stebe to put $10 on him flat.

Greg The guy is a legend... unfortunately for some reason he feels the need to still pretend to play tennis

[shari91]

Just for you weather junkies and to explain how it differs way down here. Notice how it's rising the later the day gets as opposed to how it peaks earlier in the Northern Hemisphere? I still find it hard to get used to even after being here for so long. (It's now 5:10pm here and 33.5 = 92.3 but with the humidity it's probably 110)

17/05:00pm 33.5
17/04:30pm 32.8
17/04:00pm 32.7
17/03:30pm 32.5
17/03:00pm 32.8
17/02:30pm 32.5
17/02:00pm 31.8
17/01:30pm 31.6
17/01:00pm 31.3
17/12:30pm 30.2
17/12:00pm 30.2

[s2230011]

Am I the only one who thinks Hewitt played some good tennis in the Hopman Cup? I think he is at decent odds to throw in a paralay

[Optional]

It could drop 10 degrees and start raining within the hour. It is Melbourne.

Not tonight. Tomorrow it'll be 30 and some rain and wind. It's just been 2 days of ick after a cold spell

Now hopefully Dubois just decided to tank this set and is saving up her energy for the 3rd. COME ON CANUCK!!

Keep the russian out in that heat as long as possible

[MUHerd37]

Why did I bet Stepanek against Mahut? Guy is such a fukkin loser!!!

[shari91]

Keep the russian out in that heat as long as possible

Up 3-0 now Kinger. Let's cheer her in!!
