[RoastLamb]

Dubs match on tennistv right now. Booty and Roj vs Danny and Max.

[Linda]

I've been trying to watch GGL v Blake, but it just keeps buffering all the time. I'm wondering if there's something wrong with my computer as I'm also having trouble with Twitter. It's not my internet connection as I'm getting good bandwidth at the moment. :confused:

ETA - I'm now using a fromsport stream and it's fine. So it must be tennistv at fault, not my computer. Unless my computer is being very selective about which sites it wants to show me and which it doesn't!

[RoastLamb]

Ooh my boys won in straights. Awesome! Such a nice treat to watch dubs. :clap:

[RoastLamb]

Vamos Vashy tomorrow. No livestream for his match, sadly. But There is one for the dubs again. YAY!

[RoastLamb]

Well Vashy lost in straights to Seppi and he wasn't that great. At all. Disappointing. At least there was a livestream.

Danny and Max vs Team Italy. Interesting. I think Max played very well and Danny was the weaker link in that team and in t'other Fabio was by far the stronger player over Simone. D&M win 10-6 in the MTB. :yahoo:

[Linda]

Watching Del Potro/Stepanek v Melzer/Petzschner. Nice to see singles players playing doubles. Of course Melzer/Petzschner do play doubles together quite often. Stepanek has the ideal game for doubles. Not sure about Del Potro, though.

[Linda]

DelPo muffs a MP with a DF

- but he does it on the next serve

:clap: :clap:

[patmoren]

Colin and Ross lead 5-2 in the first set.

[patmoren]

Serving for the set at 5-3, come on guys.

[patmoren]

First set 6-3 to Colin and Ross

[patmoren]

Broken in first game second set 0-2

[Sallydaisy]

Eeek. Down 0-3 now!
An early break in the 2nd set would be very good.
I've got to go out in 15mins so will probably miss the end of it.

[patmoren]

Better service game although still taken to deuce 1-3

[davech]

There's a video stream for this match here (http://www.lshunter.tv/index.php?option=com_lsh&view=lsh&event_id=67620&tv_id=349&tid=26023&channel=0&tmpl=component&layout=popup&Itemid=327).

[davech]

1-4

[patmoren]

2-4

[davech]

2-4 - slightly tricky service game for Ross, including a DF, but they're still only a break behind.

[patmoren]

Watching on Bet 365

[davech]

0-30! Fantastic reach from Colin!

[davech]

Ooh, injury timeout for the other pair.

[patmoren]

0-30 to Colin and Ros and the Russians call on the trainer!!

[davech]

Watching on Bet 365

That's normally the best choice, but I don't have any credit on there at the moment.

[davech]

BP for our boys!

[patmoren]

0-40 come on break back.

[patmoren]

That's normally the best choice, but I don't have any credit on there at the moment.
My £5 has been sitting there for years!!

[patmoren]

Did it 3-4 now need to hold serve!

[davech]

And there's the break back! 3-4.

[davech]

Pat, is there a massive scoreboard at the top left of your screen that tends to obscure one of the players?

[patmoren]

Love service game 4-4

[davech]

Brilliant serving from Colin there.

[patmoren]

Pat, is there a massive scoreboard at the top left of your screen that tends to obscure one of the players?
Partially if they go over to the corner!

[davech]

Good - not just me, then!

Good competitive game, but the Russians go 5-4 up.

[patmoren]

Russians hold 4-5

[davech]

Oops - my stream has frozen! Back now.

[patmoren]

Living dangerously 5-5

[davech]

Ross just squeaked through that service game after opening DF. 5-5.

[david1610]

Safe hold and then one (or two) TBs! C'mon guys!

[patmoren]

Heading for a tiebreak, hold guys.

[davech]

Colin really is serving well. Game point to go into TB.

[patmoren]

Lucky hold to deuce. Tiebreak. Come on keep your focus.
