Soderling, Robredo win Rotterdam openersTennis Betting Lines02/08/2010 - Rotterdam, The Netherlands (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - French Open runner-up Robin Soderling and fifth-seeded Tommy Robredo highlighted Monday's first-round winners at the $2 million ABN AMRO World Tennis Tournament. The third-seeded Soderling came from behind to beat France's Florent Serra 4-6, 6-4, 6-1, while Robredo straight-setted Dutch wild card Robin Haase 7-6 (7-4), 6-4 on the indoor hardcourts at Ahoy' Stadium. The world No. 8 Soderling, a 2008 Rotterdam runner-up, avoided opening his 2010 season with three straight losses by coming back to top Serra with the help of 26 aces. In other Day-1 action, Andreas Seppi defeated qualifier and fellow Italian Stephane Bohli 6-1, 7-5, German Florian Mayer outlasted Serbian Janko Tipsarevic 6-3, 6-7 (6-8), 7-6 (8-6), and Dutch qualifier Igor Sijsling surprised German Mischa Zverev 6-7 (2-7), 6-3, 7-5. This week's top seeds are world No. 2 Novak Djokovic and Russian star Nikolay Davydenko, who will open his stay here against last week's Johannesburg titlist Feliciano Lopez. The Serbian Djokovic will meet Ukrainian Sergiy Stakhovsky here on Tuesday. Andy Murray, who is not defending his title this week, upset Rafael Nadal in last year's blockbuster Rotterdam finale. Nadal is also not part of this week's field. The 2010 Rotterdam champion will claim $380,000.

MySportsbook.com and Kentucky Derby Offer Bonuses Well, not quite $1 million, but MySportsbook.com is offering a 75% rebate for Kentucky Derby lines. Check out the exclusive horse racing bonus for all the details. According to MySportsbook.com, the favorites for Saturday’s Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky are: Curlin (+250); Street Sense (+500); Scat Daddy (+700); Circular Quay (+750); and Nobiz Like Shobiz (+800). Derby organizers announced this week that there will be a $1-million bonus at the 2007 Kentucky Derby odds if the first-place horse wins by more than 6 1/2 lengths – the margin of Barbaro's victory last year. The bonus would be divided Saturday among the winning trainer, jockey, owner and a charity, with each receiving 25 percent. The designated charity is the Barbaro Memorial Fund. ''It's certainly creative, it's certainly fun and it has something for the horsemen, which we always want to embrace,'' Churchill Downs president and chief executive Robert Evans said at a news conference. ''What's really cool is it will force us to remember Barbaro.'' Arkansas Derby winner Curlin – unbeaten in three career races – tries to overcome both those obstacles in Saturday's 133rd Derby. ''We're not running against history,'' trainer Steve Asmussen said Monday. ''We're running against who they load up.'' Six other horses have run in the Derby without benefit of 2-year-old races and with three or fewer starts. The best any of them managed was a sixth-place finish by Showing Up last year. ”He exudes confidence and he's got a great presence about him,'' the trainer said. ''I feel great about the position we're in. He's not worried about anything, why should you be?'' For complete odds on the Kentucky Derby, visit MySportsbook.com.

MySportsbook.com favors Bears, Bengals, Chargers and Colts to remain perfect LAS VEGAS , Sept. 28 - Two big match-ups of undefeated teams have fans salivating at the Week Four schedule in the NFL. The Chicago Bears stifling defense looks to provide a less than hospitable welcome to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday night in a battle of two 3-0 teams in the NFC conference. In the AFC, the San Diego Chargers (2-0) head to Maryland to face the surprising Baltimore Ravens (3-0) as both try to keep pace atop the conference standings. Betting Lines makers at MySportsbook.com, online sportsbook and casino, have set the Bears as 3.5 point favorites while the Chargers are a 2.5 point bet. Of the three remaining undefeated teams, only one, New Orleans, enters this week's game as an underdog. Despite an emotional and resounding win over Atlanta on Monday night, the Saints are a 7.5 point underdog against the struggling Carolina Panthers. Indianapolis looks to stay perfect when they face the New York Jets as a 9 point road favorite while the Cincinnati Bengals are a 6 point favorite at home to the New England Patriots. Six teams enter the week still looking for their first win, with a seventh, Tampa Bay, on a bye week. The prospect of dropping another game would not bode well for a potential playoff run. Since 1990, just three teams -- the 1992 Chargers, 1995 Detroit Lions and 1998 Buffalo Bills -- have overcome losing their first three games of the season to earn a postseason berth. And only the Chargers managed to accomplish the feat after starting 0-4. To visit this online sportsbook got to MySportsbook.com for all your NFL football betting needs. |
