LoL. My fiancee might kill us both bro. Just enjoying the good start. Took me four Slams to have solid back to back days to start. WaWa straightened out late in the 2nd to knot it @ 1.
I am going to make a small bullshit play on Dutra Da Silva. Made some coin hitting some soccer draws so 0.25 units on him. Gabashvili is still Garbagewvili to me. He might roll, but he is apt to let DDS stick around maybe. Just a late afternoon taste off the books.

Texas, far enough away from Dallas to not have any Cowboy stank on me.
How about this Novikov? Biggest ML dog hit of the tournament @ +1270 I think at the highest I saw. Perfect example of books having no clue what to do with an unknown. Janwicz himself was an absolute nobody before people saw him wina couple @ Wimbledon. Guy never deserved to be a ridiculous -2000 favorite. Wouldn't have dart boarded it even because I know shit about the college kid, but damn I hope books got taken some on that bs.

Gotta give Stephens credit. She is running down all of Schiavone's slicey bs. Thought it would trouble her a bit more. Doesn't look like this over has a shot unless Sloane chokes hard.
DDS evens up wth the Garbage man.

Qualis Record: 9-11 (+0.39) Main Draw Record: 6-3 (+1.28]
Another modest winning day. May start mixing in some one unit plays like I did during qualis in the next few days.

Thoughts on these
Hajek +400 (just don't trust Baker as a heavy favorite - had a nice win against Kohl and then lost in straights)
Gulbis +455 (Haas has played a lot of tennis. Wind has been an issue, could give his serve problems)
Muller +250 (Youzhny has been in shit form)
Kamke +250 (Anti Hewitt pick here)
Something can't be right when I like this many dogs.

Again I think we have to careful when gauging the chances of these big dogs winning vs the price. You can make a case that every favorite gets a bloated price, but does it mean they lose?
Would I pay -500 for Baker? No. But Hajek is a clay courter who rarely plays hard court matches.
Gulbis of course depends which Gulbis shows up. Again the price is out of wack for sure, but Gulbis ande consistency over a best of five .....
I happen to like Youzhny. Muller moves like a sloth and if his serve isn't getting him a lot of cheap points, he won't compete well here. if his serve holds up, he can make it tight but I think Youzhny's better all around game prevails.
I also like Hewitt. Everything shows him healthy and motivated. Kamke to me hasn't shown anything at a Slam where he is built to win unless his opponent plays like absolute ass. Lots of people harping back on Hewitt losing to Troicki in Ciincy so bad, but don't forget the set up there ... He finished his previous match over Youzhny very late and had to turn around quick against Troicki.

i have Ferrer and Janko left in a like 8 team parlay, I am starting worry about Ferrer, though i know how absolutely horrible Anderson has been lately cause i have backed him and faded him im just worried if he hits a switch today..its possible that he is so gd tall and when he hits his serve on point that when the ball gets to Ferrer its actually going to be as high as his forehead and he'll have no chance of hitting it back??
hahhahaha seriously tho, i am worried now for some reason

EP have you seen Sock play? Do you think the announcers are just hyping him up. I see he has a big serve and a nice forehand, but his game outside of that looks weak and needs a lot of crafting.

Hewitt winning is a no brainer. I think you are on a winner with him and Youzhny. I am going to set up a thread for the Roddick Tomic game. I have a feeling Roddick is going down.

Damn...Mello had a great shot with that first set but dropped it with a late break. Lets see if he can bounce back!
edit: ugh this bastard was up a break in set 2 and just gave it back on set game...lame!

Hewitt's only hitting 39% of his first serves in and getting pumped on his 2nd serve. I think once he gets it up to 50% he should be ok. Hewitt is a back to the wall type player.

6-2 6-3 and now in the shit. It's all mental with that Russian. Glad I left him out oy my bets. Waiting on Hewitt and Kohlschreiber to bring home the bacon.
What about my Roddick Tomic thread, don't give Tomic a chance? Roddick should go home and bang his wife instead of pretending he can win another major.

I just don't have the balls to bet against the big servers or I'd have tailed on Youzhny. Right now, he's in trouble, with Muller serving for the match.

One of those days. Surprised it took three days to get bit by someone blowing a 2-0 lead. Youzhny isn't someone I would have expected to blow it to someone like Muller, maybe a more complete player but not the big sloth. Oh well you gotta live through these days betting tennis fellas.

This is one of those days where 1-4 might feel like winning the lotto.
