Jack makes big money off of those beads, I don't think he'll give those away for free.
up an early break. pretty much can't lose. gonna head off to bed, counting my winnings.
yup, definitely in the bag.
he will if donna lets him install them.
i mean, probably not right after a match. definitely give her a chance to shower.
Don't love much today, which is probably for the best, given my historical record after the 2nd round. Nice bounce-back yesterday though. I still have these open:
Gonna take some shots and hope i don't post another oh-fer. Which could very well happen.
Machac 1 to win 1.5
Vacherot 1 to win 3.1
Quinn 2 to win 3.9
Quinn/Mensik Over 39.5 2.2 to win 2
Quinn +4.5 5 to win 4
Quinn Over 18.5 2.5 to win 2
One chalky parlay in the women's doubles...

What a fucking roller coaster the last 3 days have been. Yesterday was a great lesson in not forcing plays.
Only looking at one match on the Men's side tonight. Medvedev and Tien have already played 3 times, all 3 last year, and all 3 went to a deciding set. Including one here.
Tien's 3 matches this tournament have gotten progressively easier, going from 5 sets to 4 to 3. I'm guessing tonight won't be any shorter than that, unless Medvedev retires early. Medvedev has been the opposite, going from 3 sets in his opener up to that grueling 5-setter in his last. Will the old man (he's 83 in tennis years) have anything left in the tank? I'm betting not much.
Tien 5 to win 7.6
Over 40.5 games 4.2 to win 4
Tien Over 19.5 2.3 to win 2
Ladies Doubles
Busca/Melichar-Martinez 3 to win 3.2

Seriously. Just needed Medvedev to have SOMETHING in the tank.
And I had forgotten how bad Busca is. I think Melichar-Martinez was playing with a different partner last year. Those sluts.
At least Mladenovic/Guinard finally played and took care of business.
