Ferrer looked shaky... Probably going to be fade material now

Nice to be back, thanks buddy. Absolutely. I already started fading him. Took Lu over him in Auckland. Ferrer is mostly done.

Tommy Haas -200 2u, this looks like a gift. Haas has lost three in a row otherwise this would be -500/600. Garcia Lopez isnt anything special on hard court and two of Haas' recent losses came against fellow countryman Kohlschleiber who has his number lately.

God bless Tommy Haas for having the deceny, the deceny that Bogo lacked, to quit before finishing that second set. God bless tennis "injuries".

If anyone sees an article about how the books/public did this weekend I'd appreciate you posting it here. It had to be a bad weekend for the books.

5dimes actually opened at +7 -130pizzatyme said:
bookmaker opened at +7 -110
pinnacle opened at +7 -113
betonline opened at +6.5 -110
No clue what RB opened at, I haven't figured out where they get lines from
ETA: I'll be on Denver again cause I hate money

Why is that? Because of the teasers? Three of the four games went under, that had to help the books . Seahawks/Saints got a lot of pushes I would think, but I don't really understand why it would have been a terrible weekend for the books. Maybe I'm missing something. Because of the Broncos? Did the public bet the Colts heavy? If so, why? That seems odd.

I saw that everyone and their brother was on SF. But I agree, that is just one game. I would think a lot of people got hosed by DEN yesterday.Why is that? Because of the teasers?

FWIW, booked these as soon as lines came out:
NE +6
SF +3.5
Teaser NE+13/SF+10.5

Public all over Patriots and 49ers to the tune of 76% and 68% thus far.
Will be interesting to see what happens if the Seahawks get to 3, but it seems a steady stream of money would continue on the Patriots.

Nieminen definitely won.
Bogo retired after 2 sets. Check your rules on how many sets they need to play to make it official. It varies. My local is a dummy and I had no problem talking him into no-actioning it.
If it's graded as a loss at most online books, we can call it a loss here for records sake.
I'm baffled as to why Nieminen would be grade an L. He won

I did two and think I ended up a bit pre-bonus. Good stuff, and it's fun to play 21 without throwing your money away.
I was going to wait until today because I figure it would hit 11 or 11.5, but had to take it at 9.5 when it started dropping (sits at 8.5 now, so it could have been worse).
May grab the under 133 too. Will be surprised if both teams get in the 60s

Why do you guys like B.C. so much? I'm on Syracuse.
Bogo graded as a loss at SB but a No Action at Bovada for me (BV says in the bet that it will be graded thi sway if either player retires before the match is completed)..
I'm really confused on this bet I placed at Bovada though.
3-team parlay:
Sijsling -190/Janowicz -375/Mayer -325
Graded as a LOSS but shows Mayer winning 3-0 and Janowicz winning 3-2 with Sijsling still to play. WTF kind of operation are they running there?

Am I giving myself false hope, or has Seattle's offense been a bit slow over the last month? 
they have been. it was mentioned on the broadcast but they have been awful on 3rd down over the previous 4 weeks. not sure how they did this weekend but seemed to do better.Am I giving myself false hope, or has Seattle's offense been a bit slow over the last month?

Janowicz was graded as a loss on bovada. I had to call down the thunder via phone."Sir, you realize this is only a $50 bet"
Thunder blocked...but now graded as a win.

Just a bad spot for cuse IMO. A few people I respect are also on BC.
Hopefully they win by 9 and everyone's happy

That'd be ideal.
Personally, I expect BC to fall into the trap of hoisting threes all night, like Villanova did against Syracuse in the second half. BC's defense is also pretty terrible, so Syracuse should score enough to cover. IMO, of course.

I take it you think that even if he plays tonight that he will be limited due to the ankle injury and thus the 2U bet?

And along these lines I'd advise everyone to NOT play these. If Frosty jumped on this and chances are a few others did too then Bovada will be looking at who bet what on who.......
I'd stay away.

Bet $2.40 to win $2.00!
I don't even watch college basketball and not sure I've bet these props more than a handful of times there over the years but somehow I've been limited to win $2 per bet.
