    rain
    who else did this come at the worst possible time to? at wimbledon it's inevitable but still annoying, just need ferrer up 2-0 to close it out in straights & errani to convert her match point for a hit nearin' 2 dimes

    ferrer could get down to dustin brown, be a clown & ruin the late games 9 teamer

    I have Ferrer as well. For some reason I also have Roddick. Hate that this shit has to carry over to tomorrow.

          I don't understand the reasoning for not finishing the Wozniacki match under the roof... why have a roof if you have no intentions of using it?

            Also sucks for Raonic, serving for the match.

            And mainly Melzer/Wawrinka....stan just saved 3 match-points on return and rain stopped play at deuce.

                they need to start this shit earlier. they always start so late and they never finish. i also hate the fact that the matches from today should be first in the morning not second..

                  Sucks for Melzer. Huge advantage for Stan.

                      I agree they don't start matches until 1pm on some courts? Doesnt make any sense. Stupid English weather if you go to weather.com it says forecast is partly cloudy with 10% chance of rain all day.

                      Also, who's idea was it to have a grass tournament in England? Grass handles rain the worst.

                      Also why don't they ever use that roof they paid so much for at center court. Frustrating tournament to follow...

                                  I had a lot of my Heritage account tied up in Ferrer for a long time.

                                  They still haven't graded it.

                                    This is the problem with sporting events in England. It always rains! It's supposed to rain like the next 4 or so days. Who was the brainiac who decided to hold the summer Olympics in that country?

                                      hi, I was wondering if some of the tennis could be graded? I have most of my funds tied up on a tennis match that completed about an hour ago.

                                      [Audrey] I need the ticket number please

                                      two tickets Other Sports - 4065 D. Ferrer -3000 for Game

                                            yeah that's what I thought.

                                            I'm wondering what makes it official in their eyes and how long it means I have to wait after a match is completed.

                                                  yeah that's what I thought.

                                                  I'm wondering what makes it official in their eyes and how long it means I have to wait after a match is completed.
                                                  Customer support at betting sites is the worst. They're lazy and clueless, and make BS excuses to try and cover their constant mess ups.

                                                  The live chat has always been frustrating, so I've tried calling in over the phone. The idiots just answer with "hello?" I can't tell if I called a specific bookmaker or someone's house. They're so bad, they don't even answer with something like "Thanks for call ____ Sportsbook."

                                                  Ugh, just so frustrating to deal with those morons. Luckily, I know some people higher up at some of the books, so I can just go through them most of the time. But when I have to go the standard route, it's usually the most frustrating thing I do all day.

                                                    I'm not so sure they won't play again today. Alot of people are sticking around and the forecast doesn't look too bad. I don't get why they aren't grinding it out right now it looks like it's barely been sprinkling. If they won't play in this weather then we won't have tennis until sunday.Click image for larger version

                                                      What about the people who bet Errani yesterday? She won the first set, then was up in the second 5-3. Then Errani got AD and they suspended the match til today!

                                                      It's like WTF? She's at match point and you can't give her a chance to just close it out? Asinine!

                                                        for some reason that ferrer match took longer than most to grade, i was waiting for 15+ minutes for it to be graded (bet365)

                                                            Or maybe they should just stop being dumbasses and get some god damn roofs on the courts! These constant rain delays are so frustrating and kill the momentum of the tourneys. It seems like there's a rain delay multiple times for every single grand slam tourney. These officials need to wise the f*ck up and get some roofs.

                                                            I know i'm being a bit harsh, but c'mon! So dumb that such big events are so flawed.

                                                                Because Ferrer was a lock. Brown has a good serve and nothing else - no way in hell he'd beat Ferrer in a 5 set match.

                                                                Sometimes laying the heavy chalk is worth it. This one one of those cases (as evidenced by Ferrer winning in straight sets). Picking your spots and betting steep lines on the best, most consistent players in the big tourneys works out 99/100 times.

You can bitch about injuries, but football players, soccer(football) players, etc play in shitty weather and learn to deal with it. It's part of the game!

                                                                  I can understand pouring down weather that ruins the grass courts, but come on. If someone can read a newspaper you can play tennis.
