Who you got?

[DoctorX79]

Oh man i'm sorry i didnt see this post 1st but i took andy murray yester day the odds were too good at about about 4.00 for a player ranked 8th against a ranked 3rd

Now i would try Murray again to beat Nadal(because of the odds) and Simon vs Kiefer.

[woodg8]

Noone. Gonna wait to put it all in-play, it's too much risk beforehand I think in these 2 games, althought Simon should be worth a punt to hedge out after he wins the 1st

[CrazyLou]

Who do you fellas like in the ladies semi finals?

[CrazyLou]

Bizzump.

Simon/Keifer coming up!

Where you at my tennis folk!`

[Stacocakes]

its raining there

[Stacocakes]

The feed is kinda small but that Georges girl playing right now is looking damn good

[EaglesPhan36]

****! I can't believe I only got Simon at +120. I took it before I went to sleep last night, not knowing when the match would start & thinking the price would drop. He's +150 now?! I just don't get it. Kiefer has some nice wins, but I think some of us could have beaten James Blake yesterday. Simon is the hottest on tour and still the dog? Smells fishy? I dunno, but I bit.

Maybe Mattek at plus money for the ladies? Neither her nor Pannetta has really been pressed, but Mattek has had a smoother week.

[Stacocakes]

The line movement was because Simon looked exhausted yesterday when he played and Kiefer couldn't miss a shot

[Stacocakes]

I don't think the tennis will start for awhile. I am watching the baseball game in toronto right now and they keep on refrencing the thunder and how bad the rain is

[CrazyLou]

I really showed control passing on Wozniacki. I just simply didn't want to lay the chalk this morning having already committed to backing Nadal later on, I'd rather look for a cheaper opportunity, i.e. Simon.

I didn't get to watch the Simon match, but the way I take it - he got whipped in the 1st set & had enough to beat a fresher/younger player in Cilic pretty handily in the 2nd & 3rd. And the Kiefer match, he may have played one of his better matches while Blake played his worst. I still think Blake made him look good on occassion. Kiefer definitely did have some things going, but Blake is alot like Roddick - there's really not alot of strategic variation during a match. I think Simon has shown the ability to change it up somewhat. Anywho.

[Stacocakes]

Simon didn't do much at all yesterday.I watched the match. All he does is hit the ball back in the center of the court every time with no power on it.He just did that over and over again until Cilic made an UE by usually hitting it into the net.Cilic had so many UE.
Kiefer had one of those matches yesterday where every shot he was making was going in. He had that great lob shot that they showed all of the time and alot of great winners off blake's serve.Would be difficult to duplicate the way he played in that match

[CrazyLou]

I don't know, I really think books set a perfect line. They're balancing action is what they are doing. Simon is really the play.

[Stacocakes]

match starting

[Stacocakes]

Guess rain stopped

[EaglesPhan36]

Alrighty. Let's go Simon! Daddy needs to break this shit streak in tennis and win some spending $$$.

[Stacocakes]

rain now haha

[Stacocakes]

one point and then the rain comes

[CrazyLou]

Stacco! Comment on my write up bud! I need to know if it passes your tennis technical IQ test.

[Stacocakes]

They haven't gotten off the court though.Just sitting on the sides waiting it out

[Stacocakes]

Which write up?In your play of the day thread?

This one here yeah.

[Stacocakes]

players back on to play now
Checking to see if the court is wet first though

[Stacocakes]

well they don't like the surface because it is a bit wet so both players are sitting down now

[aznbluff]

Nadal at -471

[CrazyLou]

Wozniacki match about to get underway as Garrigues has three match points.

[Stacocakes]

I think Nadal will win.Risking alot of money though to win 2 units.
Nadal upped his level last night and gasquet couldn't keep up for three sets. As far as Murray, his match was more of DJO handing him points with UE as opposed to Murray taking control
I like your play though.Should win

[EaglesPhan36]

Man do I hate Toronto. I thought Seattle was home to the rain? I'm going on Mattek at +115. She beat Pennetta at this very event in '06. Don't know if that will help or not, but the plus money will.

[Stacocakes]

What a gong show this match is right now.Start the match you ****ing pussies
They are showing two players sitting down and the ump looking at the sky

And the rain is getting harder now and the players are leaving the court.**** this

[EaglesPhan36]

By the way, the point about Simon sitting there and just hitting the ball back & forth as being a sign of fatigue .... isn't that kind of his style? I have only seen a handful of games from him recently, but in reading - seems like that is what he does. Keeps the ball in play & waits for his opponent to F up.

[EaglesPhan36]

Holy Crap! Mattek is STACKED! I'm on HER & I wanna be ON HER. Peep the ball boy!

That is what they said last Sunday's game. Thats his style.

[Stacocakes]

Ya that is his style
The fatigue part was based on his appearance on court and in every interview he has given he has talked about how tired he is. He played the week before this tourney
