French/No Electricity Open

live djok +400/500

nadal serving for first set. wow. that is a bigger jump than expected.

wondering if it has something to do with the djoko ankle roll

never know if djoko is hurt or faking it

also, based on the little i saw when djoko played ferrer and murray in the wind, he doesn't handle it very well and conditions are pretty gusty

funny thing was after kyrgios got waxed in second round after his triple 76 upset over stepanek, he played juniors - and got his ass kicked. now he's on to nottingham:

[greggraffin]

hey man that was a great win round these parts. nah, he's back in the USSR by which i mean czech, for a challenger.

oh yeah im aware, it was a good play for some madjackers

my lesson learned from that, take a shot against stepanek when he lays big odds, may never happen again

Djok will get a set but Nad's is playing lights out.

maybe, didn't notice that, just listening mostly.

djok was off the charts in game one, maybe should haev left himself room to improve...we'll see. got to admit, if i didnt have a future on nadal, would hae put 2 units on djok to start out.

jok knows it's an endurance match, he'll be back in it, he had quite a few UE which will turn around.

 

[greggraffin]

fock that warning

no need for that

he looks flushed and uncomfortable to me.

 

[sds222]

yeah he is f'ing up. His opponent isn't making things easy. he's been out played for sure. If he can somehow weather it.

djok +650 jumps to +775 after he's broken second set

nadal's shots seem harder. maybe it was a racket problem with djok from what eurosport announcers are saying

 

[sds222]

objectively, joke is not playing his best but nadal is just ridiculous on this surface. that said as good as nad's has been joke is down a mere break.

 

[greggraffin]

this has certainly been an unfortunate turn of events

 

[sds222]

would have liked at least a 6-4 or 7-5 but i'll take it!

 

[greggraffin]

fock me
thought about laying off a little when joke was plus 575 but i said , nah, rafa got this

dumb dumb dumb

 

[sds222]

nah, rafa got this

dumb dumb dumb

Nad's probably does still have it, i would never count that sob out.

 

[TennisTapir]

fock me

dumb dumb dumb

i bougth at +310 but should have bought at +750

now it's nadal -170/150

3 o clock in paris

very real possibility jo willy won't finish tonight if they go long

if they clear the court here by 6 and then warm up by 6:30.....only can play til about 9:30

good job by the french not to have electricity



about what expected by the two warriors on court now. i texted gulbis greg, he really doesn't want me to change the avatar.

 

[sds222]

nice call, i don't think he needs any help.
