Almagro is a penetrating joke.

I posted all my plays for the Australian Open (all documented in my thread).

Most of the time I'm betting on the move and don't necessarily have time to post them up but I told myself I was going to make an effort to. Helps keep me disciplined.

sharp snake what do you think about berdych/gasquet? line is very cheap for berdych who is on another level than gasquet. but don't have a deep knowledge of how gasquet has beaten him 4 times. H2H is 4-2 gasquet

Gasquet has played well thus far this year which is keeping this line pretty small. Berdych is a notch above Gasquet as a player so if he plays well he should be able win this but the courts are playing pretty slow which is an advantage to Gasquet. The weather should be dry and hot today which helps Berdych. I'm personally staying away here but I could see some value on the Berdych HC here.

No offense but the courts are not slow... It will be hot and will be dry so courts will be fast.Also in my opinion a slow court can be just an advantage for Berdych since he's so good at hitting winners and will give him more time to set up.

thanks sharp snake. yesterday's matches (matosevic, almagro) where it comes down to a few key points here and there have me thinking everything is a tossup. not feeling too adventurous.

I've watched a good amount of this tournament and every single player and commentator have been talking about how slow these courts are playing, even yesterday when the courts were just as hot and dry. You can simply look at the temperature and say "hot = fast" but that isn't the truth here. This surface is very gritty causing the ball to "just die" according to Querrey's post game interview.

As for setting up for Berdych winners, that could be true but it also goes the other way for Gasquet who isn't a slouch in that regard.

One distinct advantage Berdych will have is that there has been very little wind out there in the desert during the day. Berdych's high toss on his serve shouldn't be affected at all.

Matosevic lost his head down the stretch. Ran out of challenges and almost exploded at 5-5 giving Querrey an easy break with the match on the line.

Almagro and Haas were both very fiery yesterday, screaming and throwing racquets around.

Just two close, very entertaining matches. Doesn't necessarily have anything to do with today's matches but there aren't many matches to go the "adventurous" route today.

What's up Snakey??? Good to see ya back around man. Yea, yest I was 1-2, could of been much better if Nish had just won to win that second play, but that is the way it goes sometimes. Hopefully today is better. Thanks for being a good contributor to my thread & responding to some questions with some good info.

Demonata · 03-13-13, 01:57 PM

Sup D what are your thoughts on Berdych vs Gasquet? Thanks.

Dmoneytx · 03-13-13, 02:06 PM

Hey D. I'm watching the Anderson match. Good first set by Kevin, broke fagg boy Simon twice. Second set now & Simon gets the break in deuce by hitting the let court and falling down on Kevin's side. He didn't apologize, no hand up, nothing. The more I watch Simon play, the more I hope he rolls his ankle or takes an Anderson overhead right in the face. His crappy, gross azz looking "beard", if that's what you would call it, makes me want to swing a forehand right into his face, with my raquet! I hope Anderson buckles down & pulls this one out. Fing hate Simon...

Dmoneytx · 03-13-13, 02:17 PM

MY thoughts on Gascan/Berdy?? Well, I actually stayed AWAY from this match today. WHY??? I KNOW that Gascan has an unbelievable amount of talent! When the guy catches gear, he is really really good. I honestly think that IF he plays really really good today, Gascan will serve well, hold serve and we could be in for an epic match. IF Gascan plays crappy and gets frustrated, Berdy in straights, maybe one close set. BUT, if he is really dialed in today & is holding serve, we ARE going to see one breaker probably and it could go 3 sets. I don't see Berdy losing bad, but Gascan could. Or we see an awesome match where Gascan WILL get his chances to take this match if Berdy leaves it open for him. This is one I want to watch, no bets on this one for me man.

totally agree! he's so negative! I loved when he was serving, a ballguy was tossing a ball to him and had no other left and simon made like "WHAT THE FCK YOU LITTLE BITCH" impression. What a jerk.

btw a break early in the third! BOOM!

Anderson raped in the first set. Then got destroyed in second. But now has early break.

Yea I hate simon. He's such a poor sport.

Ok thanks man. So if you had a gun to your head who would you pick?lol

Dmoneytx · 03-13-13, 02:53 PM

Good posts about \*\*\*\*\*\* azz Simon boy

I am VERY happy to hear I am not the only one who wants Anderson to hit an overhead between his eyes, LOL!

Hey D, gun to my head?? Well, I would have to go with Berdy then. Bec I see either a close win for Gascan or a close win for Berdy or a comfortable win for Berdy. NO comfortable win for Gascan I'm pretty sure. So for those reasons, would have to go with Berdy. Gascan can let his temper get to him & that is not good for his game. Berdy NEVER seems to get rattled, which is why I think he is so damn good (kind of like a Del Potro). I just think this match is going to the wire, should be a damn good one today!

VAMOS Kevin!!!!!!!!!

swissbank007 · 03-13-13, 02:58 PM

Demoneytx!!!! i have one question!!! i m so surprised troicki and Baghadatis are playing this tournament in Dallas....why such caliber players play a CHALLENGER tournament!!!! i find iit strange and stupid no????

ofc I never met simon or got to talk to him, but the way he behaves on court just makes me hate him. Yes, It may be due to the huge nerves during the match and awful focus, but still...just take a look at delpo/federer/djoker...those are positive guys, sportsmen that are not afraid to do a joke from time to time, positive thinking...I really like that attitude. Even guys like ferrer or gasquet...they take the matches very seriously, no jokes or whatever...their faces always stone cold...but not in a negative way...all you see is focus, not hatred. that's what matters.

gators0708 · 03-13-13, 03:27 PM

swissbank- This challenger is always one of the best, used to be held in Sunrise, FL where players like Monfils, Berdych, Soderling have won before. Its for the players who lose in Indian Wells early to get some more matches before Miami starts.

and Dmoney bad luck with that Air Force pick there best player got hurt 3 min into the game.

thanks for the infos about this tournament!!! but the players always complain of too much travelling, too much playing and when they lose early in a tournament instead of rest a bit and practice and work on they fitness they go play that challenger that mean nothing for players like Troicky and Baghdatis...i find it soooooooo ridiculous...that is why those 2 players will never make it to the top!!!!
