 Weirdou, it must be hard typing about Hibzo in your every post when he's your siamese twin. Do you ever fight over who gets to use the keyboard. Please, it's transparent.

 A bet on Simon here was tantamount to betting that Tursunov would implode as he is prone to do against solid defenders. Dimitriy showed absolute idiocy on court and looks likely to languish outside the top 20 for the rest of his career given his terrible mental approach to the game.

 Simon played so well against Haas, and Querrey that I couldn't figure out how Tursunov could be favored. I thank the book makers as they gave me an early Xmas present. I believed I posted that this match had all the makings of a tight 3 setter but that it would not suprise me to see Simon win it in 2 sets. Simon deserved this title as he had the physical conditioning to withstand the heat and the speed and the mental toughness that a champion should have to win a final. I believe I will give myself some aces now! Just kidding. I hope some of the members on tennisinsight jumped on this match. It truly looked like Simon would win it and as the underdog too!

 tursunov is playing one of the worst matches I've seen in a long time. He is 0-74 on break chances and basically everyone has been an unforced error. He is a total head case.

 Gilles Simon (FRA) d. Dmitry Tursunov (RUS) 6-4 6-4 at Indianapolis ATP (USA) - Hard Court, Final <<
 Surely we are going to see some effects from the almost 8 hours of 3 set matches Simon has played this week in the brutal heat and humidity. A quick look shows that Tursunov has been on court over 3 hours less than Simon and has played 77 games compared to 107 for Simon. Also Tursunov had the benefit of a walkover in the 2nd round, so he has played one whole match less too. It seemed like Simon had a pretty high unforced error count (although I could not locate the stat) and I think that Querrey would have taken the match if not for his complete physical letdown in the 3rd. I am going to go with the fresher player here and hope that the heat, if it plays a role, affects both players.

 this for me is another match to avoid, i would save your money for the next tournament - sometimes in tennis betting if you want to make a profit you have to turn down matches and this is a case in point. If you want my opinion as to who will win I say simon - he is more of a consistant performer the value is with him @2.50 whereas tursonov's high percentage style of tennis is prone to an equal amount of errors. Role on toronto.

 I think Tursunov will win here. Simon has battled through his matches. Tursunov as many people will forget is the defending champ here so he has to defend some points. Simon has played well this week but his had a few lucky escapes (not very lucky as he played well) but Haas really threw that game away leading with a break in last set. Tursunov will win unless he chucks one of those hissy fits and breaks down. But the fact that his come back from a set down in last two matches shows his determined when he could have easily thrown in the towel against blake last match.

 Nothing much to say here, as you guys said it all. Would consieder Tursunov on odd above 1.7 but there is no such on the market wright now so no value for me.
