Davydenko-Blake match suspended, Montanes rolls in Estoril

Tennis Betting Lines

05/09/2009 - Estoril, Portugal (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Three-time finalist Nikolay Davydenko and fourth-seeded American James Blake had their match suspended due to darkness, but seventh-seeded Spaniard Albert Montanes made short work of Chilean Paul Capdeville Saturday in the semifinals at the $595,000 clay-court Estoril Open.

The second-seeded Davydenko, who titled here in 2003, lost to the great Roger Federer in last year's finale and also came up short in the 2006 final, beat Blake 7-6 (7-3) in the first set and was trailing 4-2 in the second set before the stoppage at National Stadium.

Davydenko moved to the semis with a 6-4, 6-3 handling of sixth-seeded American Mardy Fish on Friday at this French Open tune-up. Blake drove past eighth-seeded Frenchman Florent Serra 6-4, 6-1 to meet Davydenko.

Blake is a flawless 6-0 lifetime against the world No. 11 Russian star -- all six of those victories have come on hardcourts, though.

Meanwhile, Montanes cruised past Capdeville 6-3, 6-4 to advance to the finals. Montanes, who upended top seed and world No. 8 Gilles Simon 5-7, 6-4, 7-6 (7-4) to get to the semis, will, of course, face the winner of the Davydenko- Blake match in the finals. Capdeville overcame Spaniard Oscar Hernandez 4-6, 6-1, 6-4 to make it to the semis.

Davydenko and Blake will resume their match on Sunday. The winner will then play Montanes in the final, also on Sunday.

The 2009 Estoril champ will collect $96,000.

Stanley Cup betting

New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.

The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.

MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.

Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.
