07/22/2010 - Hamburg, Germany (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Top-seeded Nikolay Davydenko was the latest to fall in an upset-minded German Open Tennis Championships, as third- round play concluded Thursday.
Kazakhstan's Andrey Golubev dethroned the defending champ 6-4, 6-4 in a little under an hour and 30 minutes. Golubev won 73 percent of his first serves, while the Russian made good on only 27 percent of his first returns.
Davydenko was just the latest seed to fall joining fifth-seeded Nicolas Almagro, eighth-seeded Albert Montanes, ninth-seeded Gilles Simon, 11th- seeded Tommy Robredo, 12th-seeded Victor Hanescu, 13th-seeded Philipp Petzschner, 15th-seeded Alexandr Dolgopolov and 16th-seeded Michael Berrer.
The whole of the group were ousted by unseeded players in the second round, while Davydenko and 10th-seeded Philipp Kohlschreiber were the lone seeded loser Thursday.
Seventh-seeded Brazilian Thomaz Bellucci defeated Germany's Kohlschreiber, 7-5, 6-4.
Austrian third seed Jurgen Melzer advanced to the quarterfinals with a hard- fought 7-5, 7-6 (7-4) win against Frenchman Jeremy Chardy, while Spaniard Juan Carlos Ferrero outlasted Finn Jarkko Nieminen in a 6-2, 3-6, 6-4 final as the sixth seed.
Also advancing to the quarterfinals Thursday were German Florian Mayer, who polished off Maximo Gonzalez of Argentina 7-6 (7-1), 6-0; Uzbek Denis Istomin, a 3-6, 6-3, 7-6 (7-3) winner over German Julian Reister; Italian Andreas Seppi, who straight-setted countryman Fabio Fognini 6-4, 6-4; and fellow Italian Potito Starace, who advanced by way of a 4-6, 6-4, 6-4 triumph over Pere Riba of Spain.
Golubev faces off with Istomin in the quarters, Melzer will match wits with Starace, Ferrero takes on Mayer, and Bellucci and Seppi begin play Friday.

Academy Award Betting Odds for Best Picture Offer Great Value
If there is any category that is not an obvious win for any one nominee in this year's Academy Awards, it would be for Best Picture. Sure the Departed is a 5/7 favorite, but that's hardly anything when we look at Helen Mirren and her "out-of-reach" 1 to 40 odds (which means you would win a whopping $1 for every $40 bet).
For value, take a look at MySportsbook.com Oscars betting odds on my personal favorite, The Queen - a remarkable 12 to 1 long shot. The film hasn't won any pre-awards for Best Picture (compared to The Departed and Little Miss Sunshine), but there is a tremendous following and it is a strong enough film to warrant a surprise win.
TV Guide advises Oscar watchers should be cautioned not to discount the drama "Babel" with its strong social themes about overcoming communication gaps among people of different cultures.
"While 'Babel' lost several guild awards to 'Sunshine' and 'Departed,' it still enjoys loyal support, and historically Oscar voters favor dramas with social messages over comedies like 'Sunshine' and violent crime movies like 'Departed'."
"It hasn't done well in the guilds, which means there isn't much industry support," said Tom O'Neil of awards site TheEnvelope.com, "But several critics are expecting it to win, and that gets my attention." Babel had 7 to 2 odds at press time.
Who is to say independently produced Little Miss Sunshine won't be this year's Crash. Last year, Crash won for Best Motion Picture, shocking those who bet on gay cowboy flick, Brokeback Mountain, as the favorite to win.

New York, NY – October 3, 2007 – The dress rehearsal is over! The NHL preseason has ended and now that fans have had a glimpse of what is to come it is time to hit the book! Stanley Cup odds are live at MySportsbook.com, the world’s largest online sportsbook and casino.
The Ottawa Senators and Detroit Red Wings remain on top of the odds charts after an impressive start in the preseason. Betting lines opened for both teams at 6-1 in June. Since then the Sens have fallen to 7-1 and the Red Wings are now caught in a pack including the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes, the San Jose Sharks and the Anaheim Ducks, all at 10-1.
MySportsbook.com has also posted props on each team’s point total for the regular season. The Senators lead the charge at 108.5 followed by the Ducks at 106.5. Detroit will attempt a repeat for the prize as the Red Wings are deadlocked with the Predators at 104.5 a piece. The temporary loss of highly touted rookie Evgeni Malkin puts a lot of pressure on the stick of assistant captain Sidney Crosby - his lowly Pittsburgh Penguins are listed at 71.5.
Even if bettors are not brave enough to put their money on the underdog, an early bet on the favorites at sportsbook.com tends to produce bigger payouts than a mid-season wager. Placing a $1,000 bet last summer on the Detroit Red Wings or Ottawa Senators would have paid out to $8,000 and $10,000 respectively, opposed to a $2,500 or $3,000 payout at the beginning of the playoffs.
