Tennis Betting Lines

07/10/2010 - Split, Croatia (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Janko Tipsarevic and Nenad Zimonjic took an easy doubles win Saturday to give Serbia an advantage over Croatia in the best-of-five Davis Cup quarterfinal between the rival nations.

Tipsarevic and Zimonjic took a 6-3, 6-2, 6-4 victory over the Croatian tandem of Marin Cilic and Ivan Dodig, giving Serbia a 2-1 edge in the matchup.

Serbian Novak Djokovic and Cilic had won singles matches Friday, and the two are scheduled to face off in Sunday's first reverse singles rubber. The world No. 2 Djokovic will have the opportunity to put Serbia in its first semifinal at the Davis Cup, while Cilic will look to win to keep Croatia alive in its quest for a second title.

Sunday's second singles rubber is set to be contested by Croatia's Ivan Ljubicic and Serbia's Viktor Troicki.

The winner of this matchup will meet Chile or the 2009 runner-up Czech Republic in the semifinals in September.

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.
