Tennis Betting Lines

06/20/2007 - Eastbourne, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Top seeds Justine Henin of Belgium and Amelie Mauresmo of France were a pair of easy second-round winners Wednesday at the $600,000 International Women's Open, a final Wimbledon tune-up.

The top-ranked and reigning Eastbourne titlist Henin handled Poland's Agnieszka Radwanska 6-4, 6-1, while the reigning Wimbledon champion, two-time major titlist and former world No. 1 Mauresmo mauled Italian Mara Santangelo 6-2, 6-3 on the grass courts at Devonshire Park International Tennis Centre.

The 2006 Wimbledon runner-up and reigning three-time French Open champion Henin beat Russian Anastasia Myskina in last year's Eastbourne finale. The six-time Grand Slam titlist was last year's Wimbledon runner-up to Mauresmo and just captured her fourth overall French Open title two weeks ago.

Henin's quarterfinal opponent on Thursday will be fifth-seeded Czech Nicole Vaidisova, while Mauresmo will meet sixth-seeded Israeli Shahar Peer.

Third-seeded Russian Nadia Petrova handled France's Nathalie Dechy 7-5, 7-5, while fourth-seeded Russian Elena Dementieva defeated British qualifier Katie O'Brien 6-3, 6-4 and Vaidisova vaulted past British qualifier Elena Baltacha 6-3, 6-2.

In other second-round play, Peer pasted Japanese qualifier Aiko Nakamura 6-3, 6-2, eighth-seeded Marion Bartoli of France leveled British wild card Melanie South 6-1, 6-3 and ninth-seeded Austrian Sybille Bammer edged out Czech Lucie Safarova 7-6 (7-5), 5-7, 6-3.

Thursday's other quarters will pit Petrova against Bammer and the two-time Grand Slam runner-up Dementieva versus Bartoli.

NFL ODDSTop Football Betting Free Agents to Change Teams

NFL Betting

It’s time to see how the biggest NFL free agent signings will perform for their news teams. Some will work out and could be the difference that makes a difference in the win column.

We look at the best off-season signings and if they should influence your NFL betting this season. Julius Peppers – Peppers was the biggest prize available on the 2010 NFL free agent market and the Chicago Bears opened the bank to bring his talents to the south side.

Peppers is explosive, he can get around blockers and cause quarterbacks to lose their minds. We all remember the classic Peppers game last year against the Vikings where he hounded Brett Favre into his worst game of the season. Peppers joining the Bears could be the reason Favre retired for good Tuesday morning. In addition to Peppers, the Bears added Chester Taylor to back up Matt Forte, Forte didn’t have the same intensity in 2009 compared to 2008 and bringing in Taylor will challenge Forte to bring it every game or he’ll risk losing carries to Taylor.

Betting on the Bears is a good option this season because of Julius Peppers and to a lesser extent Taylor. Antonio Bryant and Terrell Owens – The Cincinnati Bengals signed two former number one wide receivers to line up with Chad Ocho Cinco. Antonio Bryant had a huge season in 2008 catching 83 passes for over 1200 yards but regressed last season. Playing for the Tampa Bay Bucs last season was a large part of the regression, everyone was bad in TB last season.

Bryant should have a bounce back season if he can win the number two spot from Terrell Owens. If Bryant wins the number 2 WR spot, it will open up a completely new set of problems for the Bengals. If Owens is forced to the bench in favor of Bryant, his attitude will create trouble for Carson Palmer and head coach Marv Lewis. If Owens is the number two receiver, it means Bryant can’t live up to his past numbers and the Bengals are still limited in the passing game. NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. 2010 football betting lines for this can be found at this top online sportsbook. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense.

NFL bettors should be wary of laying their money down on what could potentially be the biggest gong show in the league in 2010. Karlos Danby – The Miami Dolphins have a great running back tandem in Ricky Williams and Ronnie Brown, a good young QB in Chad Henne and now the Bill Parcells regime is building a solid defense. They signed away the Arizona Cardinals top linebacker Karlos Danby. In the past two seasons, Danby has totaled 228 tackles, 5 sacks, 3 interceptions and 3 forced fumbles. The Dolphins are the forgotten team of the AFC East with the second longest odds to win the division but with the addition of Karlos Danby and a trade for WR Brandon Marshall makes the Miami Dolphins legitimate contenders in the AFC East and in the NFL’s Eastern Conference.

The Dolphins will make NFL wagering fans a lot of money this season, get in early and enjoy the cash.
