Bryans capture second U.S. Open doubles title
Tennis Betting Lines
09/05/2008 - Flushing Meadows, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The American twin Bryan brothers, Bob and Mike, won Friday's men's doubles final at the 2008 U.S. Open.
The second-seeded Bryans defeated a seventh-seeded tandem of Czech Lukas Dlouhy and Indian veteran Leander Paes 7-6 (7-5), 7-6 (12-10) on Day 12 at the USTA National Tennis Center. Paes captured the mixed doubles title, alongside Zimbabwe's Cara Black, here on Thursday.
The Bryans, who now return to the top of the doubles rankings, also captured the U.S. Open title in 2005 and have now won six Grand Slam doubles championships, going 6-7 in their 13 major finals.
The 30-year-old Bryans also reached the U.S. Open final back in 2003, but lost that one.
Bob and Mike Bryan will split $420,000, while Dlouhy and Paes will split $210,000.

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.
