It was absolute bullshit. Got lucky. Hit by at least a half dozen baseball sized chunks and only one little dent.

Adding ...

ATP Halle: Nadal-Lacko Over 19 (-110)

EaglesPhan36 · 06-14-12, 06:52 AM

Someone forgot to tell Kubot you have to keep playing even if you win the 1st. What a putz. Business as usual.

tevari · 06-14-12, 06:59 AM

Your boy Flodonis looking totally disinterested out there. Disappointed. Expected better from him today.

EaglesPhan36 · 06-14-12, 07:07 AM

Yeah that is always a worry with him. Still time to turn the light on so the shine from his hair can blind Anderson into a loss.

And as soon as you post this he breaks to love.

EaglesPhan36 · 06-14-12, 07:40 AM

And of course he drops the long ass tie break after he was up 5-3. Looking for my one win per day somewhere else I suppose.

Mahut playing like garbage too. Guess he beat Murray so now he feels he can just suck as much as he wants. Got broke serving for first set and then lost in a tiebreak.

EaglesPhan36 · 06-14-12, 08:21 AM

That was a tough match to bet. Mahut got over valued for the win, but it was easily the sort of spot where the final scoreline today usually sees Dimitrov on the losing end.

That amtch pissed me off bad. MAhut should of easily taken that first set.

Now Lopez going to lose in straights too.

Goddam it Xaiver, hold your ******* serve!

He can't. Lopez and Mahut lose in straights to underdogs. So now Malisse too.

Demonata · 06-14-12, 08:49 AM

Malisse can serve out the first set. Lets see what he does.

Demonata · 06-14-12, 08:50 AM

Of course he couldn't do it.

Demonata · 06-14-12, 08:51 AM

By some miracle he wins the first set.

EaglesPhan36 · 06-14-12, 08:55 AM

Incredible the number of tie breaks @ Queens Club.

beefcake · 06-14-12, 08:59 AM

Grass must be harder now after all the rain?

beefcake · 06-14-12, 09:45 AM

EP, better root for Dodig!!!

EaglesPhan36 · 06-14-12, 10:25 AM

If Lacko gets bageled in this 2nd set to lose this over, I quit this shit forever. One game for a push - that's all he has to win. One game.

GAMBLOR777 · 06-14-12, 10:27 AM

EP what did you do to piss off the gambling gods so much?

EaglesPhan36 · 06-14-12, 10:31 AM

Only the tennis gambling Gods have it in for me, but not enough to boot me out the door. They gave me my game to keep me sucked in. Feels like a loss and not a push. 12 games after one set. Needed 8 games in the 2nd set.

That's okay, when Xavier Malisse wins this tournament and I cash my future - I'm going to buy the biggest stick of dynamite I can find and shove it up their asses.

GAMBLOR777 · 06-14-12, 10:32 AM

I'm glad that you got a push out of that, congrats

EaglesPhan36 · 06-14-12, 10:37 AM

Gayest push ever, but with as shitty as my luck has been any given day in this sport, I guess I oughta just swallow it and throw that money away on ERV over Nalbandian still. Haven't gotten my one win yet today, so either 0-fer or the big dog eats.

Ya I would of faded Nalbandian but He's playing a guy even worse. Beating Roddick in 3 sets does not impress me on grass.Best of luck though man.

Vaughany · 06-14-12, 10:49 AM

Nalbandian/Vasselin over 22.5 games?

EaglesPhan36 · 06-14-12, 10:55 AM

Looked at that, but not real confident. Think one of them comes out flat today and it could be over in two ... or it could drag on for three? Didn't see a great edge to it. ERV's serve has been excellent, but Nalbandian is a better returner than he will have faced. Conversely, I've seen Nalbandian's serve go to absolute shit pretty quick in matches before.

EaglesPhan36 · 06-14-12, 10:57 AM

If Tipsarevic doesn't stumble today, the draw just opened real nice for his future with Tsonga's flop today.

Do you have a Malisse future too? I love the way he's looking.

EaglesPhan36 · 06-14-12, 11:45 AM

Yes took him +7500 before tourney and sprinkled a tad more on +5000. Lu coming out of nowhere this week with some form. Sheesh.

ParlayininHTown · 06-14-12, 11:53 AM

EP ...Do you think Cilic is starting to sense that he actually has a shot to win an ATP tournament with legit players as high seeds? Even though he's catching a lot of breaks with all the higher seeds losing, do you believe he recognizes that this is as good as chance as he may have all season to win a (somewhat) respected tournament title?

Tell me about it the guy killed my 5 teamer yesterday by beating the giant Karlovic. Lu was really bad coming in to this too horrible losing streak. I hope you can hit on Malesse he's really impressed me thus far went pretty big on him straight up today.

We;ll see. Tipsarevic or Lu will be tough in the next round.

With that match being postponed until tomorrow, I could see Tipsy tanking the second set ... or he could fight hard to win it in 3 sets, but that would take a decent amount of energy.

The winner will get about a 2-hour break (weather permitting) before they have to step on the court against Cilic. I wonder how much Tipsy cares about trying to win this tournament now that he could have to play two singles matches and a doubles match tomorrow? Lu could be in a great spot to move into the next round.

I think Cilic can take Lu. He has looked good this week. But I realize it would be much closer than their rankings suggest ... I have to at least consider a Cilic future at this point. The price has probably dropped too much, though.
