Huh? Jankovic +210 vs. Clijsters??

[arzoman]

This is weird. Jelena Jankovic, the 18th ranked female tennis player in the world is +210 vs. Kim Clijsters who is ranked 47th. What am I missing here? I know Clijsters is well known, won a few titles (or majors or whatever they're called) but she's ranked 47th for a reason. I don't get the +210. Anyone have any insight? It's on the main court and is off the board at 9am pacific.

I think I just found my play for tomorrow..

Sorry Arzoman, just read this now.

I know Jankovic is about to lose the first set, but you have to look at things past what your wrote.

Form is huge, Jankovic is not the same player she was when she was riding hot. Clijsters has still been playing well outside of injuries and she looked good in the warmup tourney when she cared.

Clijsters owned Jankovic as well 6-1. The only times Jankovic was competitive against Clijsters was when Jankovic was running hot.

Well you see a higher ranked player as a dog to a lower ranked player, look into it until you find the reason why it's like that.

Books wouldn't make a line like that because the public bettor would will look into the things you were looking at and say this should be easy money.

[jimmysingh9]

you are still in this match however. get it to 1 set a piece and you have a shot.

I bet on Janowicz cause somoney said to. Lets go!

[arzoman]

Ugh!!! This is no fun. This is a must win game down 1 set, 4 games to 2. 40-40. If she wins this game I am sensing a turnaround!

[jimmysingh9]

Arzoman,

if you have any plays, shoot me a message or I will try to look on here for any posts. Sorry I couldn't dissuade you earlier on the bet. This is probably one of the first times tennis is discussed on the board lol

[arzoman]

Wow. Five dueces and always at advantage Clijsters until Jankovic won it. Now down 4-3. I'm not sure how far momentum goes in tennis, but Jankovic has it right now.

Thanks Jimmy, will do.

I also put in a small play on Jamie Lee Hampton at +375. She's looked good lately and I thought it was good value. Is there anything left on the board that you like??

[jimmysingh9]

Hampton isn`t a terrible bet. Hantuchova hasn`t looked great at all this year. She is a big hitter than can break you and sometimes has a big serve but looks like she isn`t that sharp.

Not sure if Hampton wins, but +375 isn`t a bad bet

[jimmysingh9]

I don`t have anything left today.

Maybe Heather Watson over Benesova if you wanted to take a chance. Maybe the Under 20 there


Was looking at Barthel or Zvonerava but both of them are playing like shit at the moment, so hard to trust either

[jimmysingh9]

Up a Set and a Break! No choking here and we got this.

Thanks for bringing this play up. Made me look at it and decide to make a play on it myself. took spread and ML, Spread should be ok.

[arzoman]

Wow!! Hampton is looking great!! (and Hantuchov is making tons of mistakes). We just might get this!!

[jimmysingh9]

BOOM!

[arzoman]

YYYEEES!! Great stuff!

I gotta tell you, when Hantuchova was complaining about that knee for ten minutes, I was sure she was going to quit. My book doesn't count a tennis win unless it goes a full two sets, so I was hating life there for a minute.

Great way to start the day. These past two Monday's I've hit on a big underdogs (last monday Kent State in college world series).

Do you you have any underdog specials for tomorrow Jimmy?

[jimmysingh9]

I have some huge dogs but I don't know if they win. There is some value in them, but not sure. I had a great day in Tennis Monday, I am not sure if I want to give it back

[jimmysingh9]

looking to fade Fish, Roddick, Bartoli, Wozniacki, but all 4 could cruise in their first round matches.
