      Oh and your avatar brings back bad memories. I had Fat Dave in that match lol.

      It wasn't a great day for me, either. I had the over. The over would've been locked in had Cilic been allowed to serve after that kick, but Fat Dave decided to call it quits. lol. Luckily I bet it on Bookmaker, which pushes bets if the match doesn't go the distance. In all honesty, though, bookmaker gives terrible lines for tennis matches (moneyline, I mean. The spread/over-under lines aren't that bad, but they only release them on weekends.)

        Nice job by Benny to dig out of that 0-40 hole. This might be the turning point.

          Agreed that was absolutely huge. He cannot afford to lose a service game.

            Unluckily I use 5dimes and they grade everything regardless of disqualification, retirement, etc. It goes both way though I won a couple that I probably shouldn't have won because of retirements. I used to use Bookmaker myself would never go back after falling in love with 5dimes.

              Benny is in great shape now ... One more hold if he doesn't get a break here, and he can win it in a tiebreak.

                Agreed I would prefer 7-6 but expecting the tiebreaker myself.

                    every book would push the total in that case. no book cashes the under if there's a retirement. Books just have different rules for when it counts on the ML.

                    Federer forces a tiebreak,

                      Ouch ... Benny got crossed up a little there when he hit that shot long. I can't fault him for dropping this tiebreak, though. He hit a couple of spectacular shots just to get to 6-6.

                                Ben really needs to break Federer one of these games.

                                    It's just a minor cramp. He's still hitting good shots. This is just part of the fatigue.

                                    He'll get a commercial break at 2-1 to get the trainer to look at it, so perhaps the problem will be solved quickly.

                                            Now you see the difference between the GOAT and those who are not. Remarkable poise from the King.

                                                Thanks man. That was my house money that I reloaded on the live betting. Hell it was worth a shot and came really close to being a monster hit. I would play it the same way again.

                                                  I'm glad Fed won. Would really like to see him win another grand slam.

Federer needs to take this break and run with it, because the longer this match lasts, the more fatigue, pressure and doubt Benny will feel ... which in turn, would affect his ability to keep pounding winners.

                                                      Just for the record, yisman ... I made this post as well.

                                                        I got to give him all the credit in the world. I'd play it the same way again though if I can get some half decent at +2200 against Fed. Benneteau could have had it in the 4th set tiebreaker.

I think maybe he gets a set but usually these hiccups for Fed lead to a better focus and beatdown in the nezt round.

                                                                        As for the no chance, this happens every time someone goes out on a limb. Rosol vs. Nadal, Soderling vs. Nadal, etc. Everyone saying the underdog has no chance.
                                                                        It did if you look at the history of how top 3 players in the country do in grand slam tournaments in mens tennis. Soderling actually used to be a great player.
