thanks for the nice pair of thursday-morning dogs, Haase and Mayer...the plumper one of the two (Mayer +284 when i got it) kernels popped nicely!

Feels kind of like a swing day for the tournament.

French Open - June 1

ATP Parlay: Verdasco + Kubot [+112]
Doubles Parlay: Farah-Cabal + Lindstedt-Tecau [-134]
WTA: Petrova +255
ATP: Wawrinka -135

Also adding an additional WTA future ...

Kvitova +1350

Petrova has played Stosur well in the past. Dont think she will win SU but I may look at the handicap. Also, whats DelPos health like?

therushishere · 05-31-12, 11:31 PM

EP- any chance you have an updated record?

I decided off that total. A bit sketchy on Cilic's mentality vs. DelPo. The clay match-ups have been really well in favor of Delpo. He says his hip is getting better. Take that for what it's worth. This seems kinda like one of those spots where Cilic is coming in looking decent + Delpo maybe is less than 100% ... so Cilic should get destroyed.

I don't keep a record for this thread. Surely under .500 on the season. Think for the French Open, maybe right around .500 and just a shade in the black.

sharlataans · 06-01-12, 02:29 AM

I don't see many good bets today. I could have gone with is Cilic. He is tricky and sometimes pulls wins out of his ass with an attitude. Look in his eyes in this tourney, there is a killer look

Also Grannolers -200 is worth playing.

shari91 · 06-01-12, 02:38 AM

Kind of feels like a dud day. So far I have Kuznetsova +5, Fognini +6.5, Martic, Goffin, MJMS +5.5, and Simon/Wawa and Seppi/Verdasco both over 3.5 sets. I'm going to take a better look now to see if my silly ass wants to throw even more money away

zilchy · 06-01-12, 04:13 AM

EP if you've got time for it, what's your opinion on these WTA dogs I like? Pennetta and Martic.

Also I can't resist Cilic at that price. From what I've seen, Del Potro just didn't look good enough to me to beat a top player right now.

tevari · 06-01-12, 04:38 AM

Cilic is anything but a top player. I'd steer clear of that match.

I think Kerber will win against Pennetta. She was a good dark horse for this tournament. Pennetta has been getting better recently, but I don't think she's quite up to snuff against the better hitters on tour yet. She might make it interesting though. Martic seems more solid a shot. AMG is a good clay court player, but never runs deep @ Roland Garros and isn't over powering by any means.

EaglesPhan36 · 06-01-12, 06:51 AM

Well I am nothing if not consistent. First plays of the day crashing and burning as has been the case all week. Friggin' doubles parlay boned by Lindstedt-Tecau. Hopefully the formula at least holds with a rally on the picks from here.

shari91 · 06-01-12, 06:53 AM

Dude, Jaziri is serving for the match!!

EaglesPhan36 · 06-01-12, 06:55 AM

Adding ..

Tsonga-Fognini Over 36.5 [-110]
This goes one of two ways: Fognini is running on fumes and gets pounded or Tsonga farts around and lets Fognini run him around to the end and possibly gets beat in a 4-5 setter. I am looking for the latter.

sharlataans · 06-01-12, 07:01 AM

Grannolers will drag him into deep waters

shari91 · 06-01-12, 07:02 AM

4mps blown. Thanks for coming out Jizzy.

I was just coming in to say "fuk you Shari for yet again being a pussy and taking the handicap"

There used to be a poster in my thread who suggested I put half a unit on the ML for each of my big dog handicaps. I started to do that for awhile and I'm not sure why I stopped. You only need to hit them once in awhile for it to be worth it. I need to get back into that again.

I heard Kuznecova hired Hernan Gumi, Gulbis former coach. I wonder what way it will go

EaglesPhan36 · 06-01-12, 07:30 AM

I'm gonna be pissed if Petrova doesn't win. I looked hard @ Errani today and had her ready to go, but backed out. Two nice dogs won already. Hopefully Petrova keeps the Russian dominance going.

I really hope he can get her close to where she was before. It's hard to believe that she won the French 3 yrs ago when you see her as a $5.00 dog to someone. Her head lets her down sometimes but she's so talented and strong. Although I'm sure a new coach and the 9-3 H2H she brought in probably gave her a lot of confidence too.

shari91 · 06-01-12, 07:50 AM

I've got Petrova waiting to confirm on my screen but man I just don't know. It worries me that she lost to Pironkova a couple of weeks ago. Damn I've got 4mins left

shari91 · 06-01-12, 07:54 AM

OK EP, I put $50 on her. Let's hope Sammy goes back to the bottling factory.

I just look at Stosur's losses. Venus Williams beat her down and we know Venus isn't really 100%. Hradecka beat her albeit on that smurf shit. Serena walloped her, but that's a bad match-up for hey any how. I look @ Petrova like Sveta - having the confidence of beating someone several times = helpful. We shall see soon.

shari91 · 06-01-12, 08:02 AM

Holy shiz... Martic smoked Garrigues. Not the scoreline I was expecting but I'll take it.

Now come on Petrova, Wawa and Foggy so we both can win our bets.

ebbearsfb1 · 06-01-12, 08:04 AM

Under 17 azarenka? Seems like a good play or am I wrong

EaglesPhan36 · 06-01-12, 08:05 AM

Yeah Shari, I have prepared myself for an ulcer in the Wawrinka match. Hate betting on those fukkers mostly, but really feel like Wawrinka is superior on the surface this season especially. Expecting the roller coaster to make me barf.

Wozniak is a tricky flake. Easily could she her getting steamrolled, but would not be surprised if she was competitive either. I'd avoid it personally, don't see a major advantage.

shari91 · 06-01-12, 08:07 AM

and MJMS got smoked... I keep forgetting to scroll down in Live Score Hunter so I'm clueless as to who's playing

The more I think about it, I'm not sure why I even hesitated. This is the same Samantha Stosur who not only buried me in the Final 2yrs ago but has also buried me multiple times when she's bombed out in early rounds. Body of a man, mind of a marshmallow so I should be jumping on any chance to fade her when she's up against a decent opponent.

Dmoneytx · 06-01-12, 08:30 AM

GL today EP!

EaglesPhan36 · 06-01-12, 08:33 AM

Fognini is gonna fry this total. Should have won that opening set. Tsonga let him hang around and work back even late, only to choke it back up. Early break in the 2nd. Hopefully Tsonga keeps playing in thunder dikk mode.

shari91 · 06-01-12, 08:41 AM

Petrova needs to pull those shots back a bit. Great selection but too strong.

ebbearsfb1 · 06-01-12, 08:43 AM

Took over 25 joker.... here's to hoping went away from my gut

EaglesPhan36 · 06-01-12, 08:50 AM

Petrova is going Russian Rope-a-Dope. Play like a dope, rope Stosur in and then crush her.
