EP36's Tennis Elbow

[H1Cypher]

Has anyone seen Lisicki play? Thoughts on her pushing Sharapova to a third set? Thoughts on Sharapova pushing Sharapova to a third set? thats not a typo

So by thinking it will be a quick match for Ferrer you are basically picking Ferrer to win taking less juice and hoping he does it faster? or he can just lose real quick.

[EaglesPhan36]

I think Serena is done today. She just doesn't have it working, be it due to fitness or what have you. Hats off to Makarova. She hasn't cracked like Li did yesterday.

Lisicki looked like absolute shit in the 1st set against Kuznetsova. Couldn't serve for her life, errors, etc. She found her serve early in the 2nd and was lucky that Kuznetsova started spraying the ball a lot and then she totally took over the match in the 3rd when Kuznetsova couldn't keep it together. Looking at past match-ups, doesn't appear Lisicki matches up well with Sharapova.

[hawley]

Serena is like a fukn wildebeest out there

[Wesley]

She is serving like a retard

[EaglesPhan36]

Man they should be showing this Tsonga match, lots of good stuff. Punch, counter punch. If they get to a 5th set, think the over will just cash ... but barely.

[hawley]

Is Serena done

[hawley]

EP I am not watching the Tsonga game, are the short sets reflective of each player sort of giving up when they realise the set is over to conserve energy?

Kuznetsova always wins the first set against top players in the world and then always chokes....

[Boxing Champ]

Serena is disgusting looking...

No, I don't think so. Just been very lopsided from set to set. I haven't seen Nishikori give up on much of anything, Tsonga maybe conserves some ... but he can't afford to do that right now. He's got to take this set ... and he's about to give up his break lead.

[Wesley]

did anyone take the prematch odds for makarova?

[EaglesPhan36]

I just cannot listen to these female announcers on ESPN. MUUUUUTE.

[EaglesPhan36]

Great save by Tsonga, dug himself out of 0-40 on this own serve to hold.

[Boxing Champ]

did anyone take the prematch odds for makarova?

No....10-1...You would know about it by now... Trust me...

[Boxing Champ]

Why does everyone on TV keep calling her Makarova...
The right way to say her name is Makarova...
Don't they check the correct pronunciations of player's name????

[EaglesPhan36]

Wow. Just some great points in this Tsonga match. Fukko trying to yack up his serve still trying to close out the set.

[EaglesPhan36]

JWT finally closes it out and I won't lose every bet today as the over is guaranteed now, but geeze - took going to a 5th set to barely get there.

I gotta sleep. Fukkin work in the morning. Be back for Djokovic-Hewitt. Maybe Hewitt can win more than six games?

[Boxing Champ]

I just cannot listen to these female announcers on ESPN. MUUUUUTE.

I agree. Useless statements like "Between Clijsters and Serena they fought off 6 match points now"...
What ta fak does this have to do with anything.. They are not friends, they are not on the same team...
What's purpose of that statement??

[EaglesPhan36]

ESPN just makes themselves look dumber and dumber ... WOW hard to believe after eight days, no Americans left .... maybe because American tennis players blow? Best ones left are getting older.

[Boxing Champ]

Wow some late juice coming in on Gasquet at Pinny....

[EaglesPhan36]

All it did was move the line back to about where it was when it opened. Pretty normal for people who want to bet a dog in a match, they let the line float out on the favorite and then hammer their number - happens quite a bit. It's not like Ferrer is down to -150 or something. -190.

[illAdelph]

Wow some late juice coming in on Gasquet at Pinny....

Whats up man Im new to tennis..

Gasquet ferrer match was scheduled for 10pm.

Will it be starting shortly?

Why the delay?

[illAdelph]

Will it begin after the nishikori match?

[shari91]

Will it begin after the nishikori match?

Yes. Start times are useless in tennis after the first match of the day starts. All depends when the matches before them finish

[Boxing Champ]

Yes. Start times are useless in tennis after the first match of the day starts. All depends when the matches before them finish

Shari..who do you think will win Ferrer/Gasquet match???

[illAdelph]

Yes. Start times are useless in tennis after the first match of the day starts. All depends when the matches before them finish

Thanks shari

Shari is absolutely right...
Be careful with betting tennis if you are new...
Very different than any other sport...
You can have a best player in the world at 100-1 be up...then not get a call from a line judge, get upset
and lose...Serena just lost as a 10-1 favorite..
Most of the time ranking and previous stats don't mean a thing...
But if Sharapova has her period today...now that's a huge factor..
It's just hard to find out when it is though..
It's not in the news papers..

[shari91]

Shari..who do you think will win Ferrer/Gasquet match???

If it wasn't this bloody hot, I'd give Gasquet a really good chance. But it's hard to have faith that he'll hold up against a fit little f'r like Ferrer.

[thefonzo]

Upsets happen, just like any sport. Miami heat today for instance lost at home to a team that had been 1-8 on the road

[illAdelph]

Yea I took serena live +230. Thought it had some value considering who she is and the potential she had to make a comeback in the match. (It only proceeded to get further out of hand)

I seem to have a helll of a lot to learn.

Thanks for the advice.

I'll try to give you a heads up

[illAdelph]

I think ill shy away from womens tennis for now. Looks much more unpredictable.

[Boxing Champ]

I'll try to give you a heads up

Well, in that case you should not only give heads up...
You should share too..

[Boxing Champ]

Wow weird steam coming in...
Bet fair is steaming Gasquet..
betdaq is steaming Ferrer
...Now betdaq is taking Gasquet money too..
