Wednesday OP & Scores - Main Draw Begins!

Rainer is horrible on slow conditions like in Miami.

these days i get the impression he is horrible everywhere !!!

30-0, Rainer has served well ever since the break. I will give him that.

Whoever wins this game will probably win the match.

rainer holds comfortably, 5-5

c mon Shaker just like old times ..do it !!!

Viva la 2003!

15-30, c'mon!

Viva la 2003!


:yeah:

Potito doesn't seem to be missing first serves.

damn it 40-30

15-30 --> game Starace. Oh well.

Potito doesn't seem to be missing first serves.

he's at 83% for the third set :eek:

Rainer and Greg, I truly cannot believe how few breaks they've managed between them considering the amount of times they've had break points, or 0-30 or 15-30. its really pissing me off

30-00

30-0 rainer....looks like tb time. most probably be the 2nd big bet i've lost today in a final set tie break after calleri :rolleyes:

The only silver lining going on seems to be that Rainer is serving well since the break. Going to be rough if Rainer loses a third set tiebreak, Calleri was frustrating enough.

Looks like Rainer & Potito will end their match as it should end...with a TB :D. I almost can't look :p

are you guys following on courtcast or the live score page? i'm finding courtcast skips a point or 2 every so often

tb time, please take it rainer

Tie Break
Rainer 0*-1

cmon shittler take the TB

you are involved in a lot of 3rd set tiebreaks lately, adeegee

Rainer 1*-1

Looks like Rainer & Potito will end their match as it should end...with a TB :D. I almost can't look :p

it should've ended with a rainer win in 2 sets but he keeps missing opportunities.....c'mon rainer 1-1

Rainer 2-1*

Come on Potito. I need you to win

you are involved in a lot of 3rd set tiebreaks lately, adeegee

i know man, its not good for the heart :timebomb:

2-1 rainer, take 1 of these points off the serve

are you guys following on courtcast or the live score page? i'm finding courtcast skips a point or 2 every so often

tb time, please take it rainer


Use CourtCast, they update instantly :D

Rainer 2-2*

Rainer 2*-3

Potito has to be just rolling his serves in, he isn't missing. Yet he is still holding comfortably.

2 SP GREG

Come on potito, get a mini break here

3-2 starace, nightmare

Rainer 3*-3

3-3, c'mon rainer and greg

3-3

Greg 4-6 6-4 !!!

Hows everyone feeling? Very nervous here

Break his ass, Italian Stallion.

3-4 Starace serving

Rainer 4*-3

omg rusedski took a bp....surely he should win now, i'm relying on you rainer

dammit

Schuettler holds after a very long rally (I think).

rainer, 1 of these points off the serve please

YES 4-4

Rainer 4-4*

Bet against Schuettler next time and make a FORTUNE

Starace is serving with ease. I expect a break of the German soon and cash in.

It's south Florida, rain is constant. It is usually on and off anyways. Be patient and you will have a patch of good weather.

RAINER 5*-4

It's south Florida, rain is constant. It is usually on and off anyways. Be patient and you will have a patch of good weather.
I know right! LOL! It rains almost every other day in the afternoon!

Bet against Schuettler next time and make a FORTUNE

Well i bet against him today and its not looking good

c'mon rainer finish him off

5 - 5

F0ck! ITA broken.

Rainer 5*-5 big point now

Bet against Schuettler next time and make a FORTUNE

yeah man it'll be against Rafa if he wins

Broken back! 5-5

way to blow the mini break
shittler

typical....huge point

MP Rainer

Not bad for a firsty match!

Damn MP RS save this potito

I know right! LOL! It rains almost every other day in the afternoon!
This time of year, and then in the later months, yes. You really just have to be patient with it. ;)

yeah man it'll be against Rafa if he wins

Rafa will eat him alive :eek: :cool:

I think Rainer double faulted? Unreal.

C'mon Staraci Itali. Hold serve like you've been doing on fire 3rd set.

omg please....i'm so nervous

YESSSSSSSSSSS RAINERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

good job rainer

Rainer won, you can all breathe :lol:

rainer you genius!!!!!!!!

GOOD BOY

Rainer: Thanks. You are very funny, though.

Rainer :bigclap: :bigclap:

Potito :sad:

Bet against Schuettler next time and make a FORTUNE

good eye mate

Yay Rainer!!!!!!!! :woohoo:

:bigclap:

Congrats Schuettler backers, but f u starace, my wallet just got much lighter.

Man! Good job SHITLER'S LIST! You broke into my winnings from Ginepri!

At least I always pick close losses on upsets :)

Cheers to making a joke of a day not quite as bad.

rainer loves it dramatic

Rainer finally gobbled that Starchy Potatoe ;)

Does anyone have a definitive answer on Schuettler?

Are his shots becoming less potent? People seem to have great strategies against him also. He certainly isn't struggling like hell because of fitness.

Congrats Schuettler backers, but f u starace, my wallet just got much lighter.

Starace was a good bet though. It was just bad luck. This match was 50/50 to me.

Mathieu / Schuettler. Stay away.

whats going on with rusedski. no update for quite a few mins

lack of confidence

Starace is GOING TO MAKE r16s and 32s soon enough ITALIAN STALLION BABY! 6 FT 4!

Mathieu / Schuettler. Stay away.

Its Rafa/Rainer is it not?

I didnt back rainer i m just happy that he finally won a first rounder !!
LoOoL

Its Rafa/Rainer is it not?

No, I mean don't bet on them.

Its Rafa/Rainer is it not?

I think he means stay away from those 2 players no matter who they are playing.

Mathieu / Schuettler. Stay away.

Oh yeah !!!!!! stay away !!!!!

Starace is GOING TO MAKE r16s and 32s soon enough ITALIAN STALLION BABY! 6 FT 4!

He might win Palermo or Sopot this year.

Its Rafa/Rainer is it not?

He meant not to back those 2 players...

I like Hernych, but I've kinda got to say stay away from him too. How he did not beat Mathieu last week is anyone's guess.

No, I mean don't bet on them.

oh right. Mathieu's been like a money making machine the last 2 weeks for me :worship: i love the guy. i think the bookies vastly underrate him.

Calleri is the main guy to stay away from. And the obvious likes of Moya and co. :mad:

two of the biggest chokers on this tour !!!

c'mon greg let's get an early break in the 3rd

I like Hernych, but I've kinda got to say stay away from him too. How he did not beat Mathieu last week is anyone's guess.

They were both chocking and blowing like 2 babies..pathetic :o

oh right. Mathieu's been like a money making machine the last 2 weeks for me :worship: i love the guy. i think the bookies vastly underrate him.

i think they overrate him like many people too.

GO Greg!

Stay away from SAFIN because he's #4 or whatever so people think to put SOOO MUCH MONEY on him and go bankrupt!!!

Stay away from SAFIN because he's #4 or whatever so people think to put SOOO MUCH MONEY on him and go bankrupt!!!

Safin is close with Russian mafia ;)

Rusedski 1-1 3rd set for those who care. :yawn:

Stay away from SAFIN because he's #4 or whatever so people think to put SOOO MUCH MONEY on him and go bankrupt!!!

Precisely. I got burnt in Dubai when he lost to Kiefer, but I woke up and smelled the coffee and got fortunate when Dent beat him.

Calleri is the main guy to stay away from. And the obvious likes of Moya and co. :mad:

oh no Mathieu is a big choker...he maybe won you some money ..but i am not trsuting him with ma money

What does everything think of Bjorkman-Mirnyi? I wana put a little on Big Max but i think im gona stay away as its hard to tell which Bjorkman will show up.

i think they overrate him like many people too.

mate 4.00 to beat tommy haas was outrageous. and 2.37 on him to beat tojo on clay in france in the DC

overrated by the bookies = ancic, roddick (even though i like him his odds are always way too low), safin (always shit odds and prone to stupid losses)

Rusedski 1-1 3rd set for those who care. :yawn:

:wavey: i do, rainer's epic win will mean nothing if greg doesn't pull this out :rolleyes:

Precisely. I got burnt in Dubai when he lost to Kiefer, but I woke up and smelled the coffee and got fortunate when Dent beat him.

I shoula put more cheese on DENTSKI due to the intangibles on American soil. Dam Marat!!

Rusedski 1-1 3rd set for those who care. :yawn:

No one's going to care unless they put money on the match it seems :rolleyes:

:lol:

I'll be back to follow Jonas's score when he wins on his birthday :)

What does everything think of Bjorkman-Mirnyi? I wana put a little on Big Max but i think im gona stay away as its hard to tell which Bjorkman will show up.

Björkman will prolly get a bday gift today :)

Despite a bizarre day, I still feel pretty good about Blake tonight and Mello tomorrow. Ricardo loves the hard courts of Miami where he gets lots of Brazillian support. Plus, Ventura's drop shots won't be too effective on non-clay.

No one's going to care unless they put money on the match it seems :rolleyes:

yeah that s the case i guess

right no more gambling talk from me we're annoying people who don't really deserve to be annoyed! sorry alex bogo fan :p

Rusedski leads 2-1 final set

Rochus to smoke Karlovic also..

good eye mate

Gamblers thread should stay LOCKED in here because everyone goes here for the UP TO SECOND scores! $$$$$$$

1.44 against a serve like Ivo? I mean he is the biggest klutz to sport a racquet, but I dunno.

Rusedski 2-1 15-0. Pretty light schedule until the American rockers get underway later.

yeah that s the case i guess

Yea, I'm beginning to think that I'm the only person again who likes to follow Pro Tennis for the joy of it. But I had that rant elsewhere and it's my birthday so I'm not in the mood :D

30-30 on the seppi serve, break him gregory

Yea, I'm beginning to think that I'm the only person again who likes to follow Pro Tennis for the joy of it. But I had that rant elsewhere and it's my birthday so I'm not in the mood :D

i stopped for you :D

happy birthday :bdaycake: how old are you?

I like to follow tennis for the joy of it.

I kinda like all the bettors around, keeps things amusing :)

It won't suprise me in the least if Zib (and the qualifier effect) knock out Fish.

man, what happend to SAUL and JARKKO's match?

right no more gambling talk from me we're annoying people who don't really deserve to be annoyed! sorry alex bogo fan :p

Thank You ;) :p

No one in their right mind would bet on Fish right now. He hasn't won two matches in a row since the Olympics - and many of his losses are matches he was up significantly in and choked badly. Wouldn't even put $1 of VCash on him right now, sadly :(

happy birthday !!!!! :bigclap:

deuce, c'mon greg how many chances do you want

There are tons of people who bet on tennis who absolutely love the game even if there wasn't gambling. For me I just decided to use my knowledge for a profit, since I am not "morally opposed" to betting.

nothin more to say ;)

I don't mind it except when the discussion starts sounding like people feel like they are owed by the players that they are betted on.

deuce no.4 i think on the seppi serve, greg hasn't had a bp yet though

Funny game.

Greg's Break Point Conversions 1 of 11 = 9 %

its very infuriating....he also keeps getting to 15-30, 30-30 or deuce but just cannot break

Gambling is just so evil....

There you have it. If you were crosseyed you'd see right through my name. :devil:

Come on Greg!

27 :)

anyone know why SAUL hasn't played yet today?

I don't know if anyone deserves that game.

most of the times...
if someone can t convert his many Bp or use his many chances to get BP its goin to be the other way around...

I'd bet alot more on Rusedski because of that serve, but there's something about his game that irks me. :shrug:

:hug:

27 :)

really? i imagined you were a bit younger. i was told by someone they thought i was about 13, i'm actually 21 in just over a week. i think it must be my immature sense of humour :p

man, what happend to SAUL and JARKKO's match?

I can't find the result either :shrug:

OK, now I'm getting out of here to be back for Jonas & Max's match

30-40 rud

I'd bet alot more on Rusedski because of that serve, but there's something about his game that irks me. :shrug:

is it the fact that he goes and wipes his face with his towel after every point, even if its an effortless ace

how obvious, seppi will take this bp no doubt about it

Greg is one of the worst return players going around. Hard for him to win 2 points in a row.

deuce!

bp number 2....just put me out my misery and lose greg

Greg saved a BP

is it the fact that he goes and wipes his face with his towel after every point, even if its an effortless ace

Greg could be called strange. He'll beat a guy 0 and 0 and claim he isn't striking the ball well enough.

is it the fact that he goes and wipes his face with his towel after every point, even if its an effortless ace

I noticed he only started doing that 3-4 years ago. I suppose its just habit now and gives him rhythm.

adv greg, come on son

ITA has pissed me off enough today, so I'm steppin out til USA matches. Cash $$$ baby :drive: Bentleys

Very fortunate there for Greg backers.

Greg up 3-2*

Greg also has this really funny thing, when he gets a bit nervous at wimbledon, he sometimes just gets really frenetic and walks about the court at about 100 mph in between points. has anyone else noticed it?

great stuff 3-2 greg, i gotta go out in a sec :mad: i'm gonna have to follow the scores on wap on my phone

ITA has pissed me off enough today, so I'm steppin out til USA matches. Cash $$$ baby :drive: Bentleys

Were you on Volandri also?
