Isner bows out quickly after marathon match

Tennis Betting Lines

06/25/2010 - Wimbledon, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - John Isner's second match at Wimbledon didn't last nearly as long as his first and it also marked the American's exit at the All England Club.

Thiemo De Bakker of the Netherlands took advantage of an obviously tired Isner and rolled to a 6-0, 6-3, 6-2 second-round victory on Friday.

Isner was coming off his epic three-day, five-set, first-round marathon against France's Nicolas Mahut. The 23rd-seeded Isner posted a 6-4, 3-6, 6-7 (7-9), 7-6 (7-3), 70-68 victory in the first-round match that set all kinds of records.

It started Tuesday and ended Thursday in a battle that lasted a total of 11 hours and five minutes. The fifth set alone, which started Wednesday after darkness had initially halted play on Tuesday, took a mind-boggling 8 hours, 11 minutes to complete, including 65 minutes of action on Thursday.

De Bakker, who went five sets in his first-round match on Tuesday, needed just 74 minutes to polish off Isner on Friday.

Isner looked stiff and needed attention from the trainer during Friday's match. He clearly didn't have anything left in the tank and lost the first set in just 16 minutes. It didn't get much better, as De Bakker broke immediately and Isner finally held serve for the first time in the third game of the second set.

Still, Isner battled through when he could have just walked off the court and no one would have blamed him.

Isner fired up a record 112 aces during his first-round match, but on Friday didn't muster one. He won less than half of his service points and was broken seven times. He didn't earn a single break point against De Bakker's serve.

De Bakker won 45 of his 55 service points, including 11 aces, as Isner's movement was sluggish.

SPORTS BETTING

NFL Football Betting Online

In terms of sports wagering, the NFL is "the most popular game in town." The explanation behind that is easy.

It is called the "pointspread."

Many years ago, NFL games, as well as the more popular college games, used straight odds as a vehicle for betting. For example, if the Bears were playing the Giants, and it shaped up as a competitive contest, the Bears might be, say, a 7/5 favorite. If they were playing an also-ran, it might be 10/1. Well, there is a point where a line becomes prohibitive, as far as betting the favorite. And who would waste money betting an underdog that has virtually no chance? Such a setup did not contribute to promoting betting action.

But in modern sports betting, a "pointspread" is used.

A NFL pointspreads are exactly that, a pre-established point difference between the two sides that will, for all intents and purposes, create a handicap that evens things out, and in doing so, produces comparable wagering activity on both sides of that proposition. So in lieu of a odds figure in which to bet the team to win outright, the Bears might be a three-point favorite over the New York Giants, and a 17-point favorite over the also-ran. Now that the team that is the underdog can "get" points, there can be equal action on both sides.

In sportsbooks, this is usually done with efficiency by charging the losing bettors 10% extra - in effect, bettors are laying 11/10 on those games. So they are actually betting $110 to win $100. If they lose, they pay the "vig." If they win, they simply collect.

The establishment of the pointspread as the corner stone around which team sports like football can be wagered upon was truly what brought gridiron betting into the stratosphere for online football betting .
