It's basically -1.5 on a set handicap.

That's how I've read it.

Cracking bet. Mahut only had break points in 2 of the 90 Isner service games last year. 1 in the second set where he did break and the other 2 were right at the end of 1 night where Isner's first serve had dropped by 40kph and he was complaining that he was struggling to see.

It'll be no different this year.

Just received this email from BWIN:
"Your bet on John Isner (USA) - Nicolas Mahut (FRA) :Will Nicolas Mahut (FRA) win more than 1 set? has been cancelled due to an input error because incorrect odds were entered. Your stake has been credited back to your betting account. "

FFS. Odds been cut to 11/13 :(

It'll be no different this year.

Mahut did win 24 points more than Isner in the match though. Plus he's had some games on grass(albeit he looked a bit shit) and Isner is coming in here cold.
So we finish the eighteenth and he's gonna stiff me. And I say, "Hey, Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know." And he says, "Oh, uh, there won't be any money, but when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness." So I got that goin' for me, which is nice.

Best price of 3/10 for that.

13/10 for 2 or more last year (according to my post in the 2010 thread) so probably was around 1/2 for there to be 1 last year.

It didn't work yesterday either.

You can view single games at a time if you go through the live scores link on the atp website or otherwise you have to use the slow updates on the main Wimbledon site.

SlamTracker best be back for the US.

Backed both Petzschner and Nieminen to even stakes today. Soderling is going to take some time to adjust to grass and Almagro is just awful on it.

Just need 1 to win to turn a profit.

Like every other Tom, Dick & Harry in this thread, I'm on Isner as well to beat Mahut.

2 days. 2 winners. Done a 12 timer. All winners. Won the fucking astronomical amount of £7.32 for a £1 stake. Started with a fiver and trebled it in 2 days. At this rate, I'll have won £7971615 by next sunday

Hewitt's foot is in bits but even so Soderling has been utter shite for a year and isn't comfortable on grass. Petzschner should have beaten him, won more points in the match.

If the roof is closed I might avoid it but if it's open and windy I think Hewitt is worth a play.
So we finish the eighteenth and he's gonna stiff me. And I say, "Hey, Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know."

I'm going with Hewitt tomorrow. Soderling looked shit against Petz. Weather looks good until 4ish so we should see the roof open so Hewitt will be able to do some damage.

Malisse & Garcia-Lopez in a double for me tomorrow. Might just do Malisse in a single though I do like GGL on these faster courts.

It was an awful game largely decided by a series of questionable line calls and Pavyluchenkova deciding whether she could be arsed to rally or not from point to point.

Garcia-Lopez has killed me. 2 breaks up in the first set and fucked it, a break up in the second set and fucked it. No way he'll be coming back from 2 sets down.

Loses 4 points in a row on his serve at 40-15 *4-5 in the 4th set and loses.

Malisse is looking good after blowing the first set as well.
