Tennis Betting Lines

03/07/2010 - Moscow, Russia (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Mikhail Youzhny crushed Somdev Devvarman in Sunday's first reverse singles rubber to send host Russia into the 2010 Davis Cup quarterfinals. Youzhny's win gave the Russians, who ultimately prevailed 3-2, an insurmountable 3-1 lead in the best-of-five opening-round affair.

Youzhny dismantled Devvarman in 6-2, 6-1, 6-3 fashion in 1 hour, 55 minutes at Small Sports Arena. The gritty Russian piled up six service breaks while holding his serve all 12 times on Day 3.

A dead rubber on Sunday saw Indian Rohan Bopanna beat Russian Teimuraz Gabashvili 7-6 (7-5), 6-4.

Russia will face the Argantina-Sweden victor in July's quarterfinals.

On Saturday here, the dynamic doubles tandem of Mahesh Bhupathi and Leander Paes kept the Indians alive by notching a 96-minute straight-sets triumph over a Russian tandem of Igor Kunitsyn and Gabashvili.

On Friday in Moscow, Youzhny and Kunitsyn each won opening singles rubbers to give the hosts a commanding 2-0 advantage.

Two-time champion Russia (2002, 2006) is captained by Shamil Tarpischev, while Team India, which was making its first appearance in the World Group since 1998, was guided by Shiv-Prakash Misra.

Russia and India have now split four all-time meetings.

MySportsbook.com refunds all bets on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay from NFL week one.

(September 14) – Week one of NFL action saw three teams go scoreless for the first time since 1977.  Another four were unable to get a touchdown and almost half of the underdogs covered the spread. Those three teams saved bettors at MySportsbook.com from losing out completely, thanks to the company’s unique NFL Shutout Rule -- which ensures that if the team you backed goes scoreless, your wager is refunded.

Sportsbook refunded tens of thousands of dollars to customers who bet on Oakland, Green Bay and Tampa Bay, the three teams that stunk up the field so badly that their fans and backers never had a chance to get up from their couches and cheer.  In the spirit of the low scoring start to the season, odds makers at the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino have set odds on how many total shutouts there will be this season. 

MySportsbook.com has posted updated sports betting lines for week two of the season.  Ben Roethlisberger’s health status is still questionable, so Willie Parker will try to lead Pittsburgh again as they travel to Jacksonville as a one point favorite.  After beating up on his little brother last week, Peyton Manning will look to lead the Colts to victory against Houston. Indianapolis is a whopping 13.5 favorite in the match-up.

Seattle, last year’s highest scoring team, showed the power of their defense with their gritty 9-6 win in Motown over the ravenous Lions.  They take their act back home to the comforts of Qwest Field where they will face the resurgent Arizona Cardinals.  The Seahawks are favored by a touchdown.
