digging on Kokkinakis -165 over Gabashvili today.....


watched this kid play lw and he absolutely had Gasquet on the ropes in round of 32 in Cincinnati - he was up 5-3 in the 1st set tiebreak but then lost 4 straight points and lost a bit of wind out of his sails after that - Gasquet had a couple of lucky net cords and balls that hit the edges of the lines or else he would have definitely lost the 1st set and who knows after that - admittedly don't know a ton about Gabashvili but it does not look like the hard courts are his favorite surface and also like the fact that Kokkinakis has a match under his belt already on these courts while Gab does not


And as always, good luck no matter which players you choose,

well scratch the part about familiarity with the courts, just noticed Gabashvili is playing in a doubles match that's about to start - still like and playing Kokkinakis though, was pretty impressed with his game

tough, close loss at 7-6 in the 3rd but a loss nonetheless - Kokkinakis had a bunch of chances to break in the 1st but couldn't take advantage


good luck - burns
