 I normally don't bet against players I like such as James Blake. This is a sure sign that there is trouble afoot. Cannot believe Blake is really getting spanked and outplayed here and by the "consistent" Mardy Fish. Certainly not a word that personifies Mardy.

He is just not playing well and totally looks out of the match now mentally. Very disappointed.

 Show some bloody fight will you. I just got on at 3/1 before that break in the fifth game and Fish breaks :(. Now 7/1 lol. Blake better show some effort.

 Flakey Blake vs A piece of Flake. The tips ratio here sounds right 53% Blake , 47% Fish. Bit tough tough to pick for mine.Both tips equally viable.
Have to go on gut instinct.

 James Blake recently beat Roger Federer on a hard court in the olympic games. Mardy Fish has never gone far in grand slams.The only way I see Fish winning is if Blake is off his game tonight.I don't see that happening as this is his best shot out of all the slams. I think we can all safely bet on Blake

 did anyone see Fish play Verdasco or Cilic? Fish is horrible. Blake too good for him.

 Blake is in poor form this week. And as he was never too much reliable even when he was in best form i expect a suprise here.

 Blake is far better in returning and playing from the baseline. He'll get enough chances to break the Fish-serve and will walk into the tnext round in three straight sets.

 Blake is unstable and unpredictable. He can win against everyone and lose to any outsider. Fish has his time now and he is capable to make a suprise here. If he keeps to serve well he will win it even in 4 sets.

 Couldn't be much more confident of this outcome. Blake will win the match there's not much doubt in my mind. Blake is a definate outsider with a good chance of winning this title and he's in fantastic form to go with that prediction. He beat Young before belting Darcis. Fish won't be expecting to beat James and the crowd wont let him either. Blake is too consistent and powerful for Mardy, not to mention far too quick. Blake al the way.

 Fish in a good shape against Blake in a erratic shape making easy games hard´s and losing for medicre adversaries. I stiil pick on Blake, but with less confidence than usual.He is a tennis player that Fish never will be even in your dreams.

 Blake leads the hds up 2-1 winning the last of those matches in last years New Haven final. Blake also has a much better US Open record than Fish and has made two quarter finals here in the past whereas this is Fish's first venture past the 2nd round in nine attempts. Blake has struggled to find his best form so far, he just got past Young in the first round before being aided by the retirement of Darcis last time. Fish on the other hand was pretty impressive in disposing of Mathieu in the last round when his serving was first class. Blake has a definite mobility edge and has the bigger forehand but Fish gets the plaudits in the serving department and also has a better backhand that he is able to keep flat and low. Fish has shown that when he hits a hot streak he is a match for most and he looks to me that he is finding one of those purple spells. odds of 3.25 about Fish are far too generous to pass up.

 Mardy Fish seems to do a re-entry in tennis. Blake's form is like an yo-yo. This is imo a hard match for a poor punter. No, i can't do any prediction about a winner.

 Im very confident in my selection here for Blake.Boy did he put me through it against Young eventually classed showed,then Darcis yesterday he started of slow but after the first set there was only going to be one winner.Fish has carryed his good form from last week into the Open with a great win over Mathieu.Both of these guys loves this time of the season but i only see one winner an Blake will see my money.Also i will try my luck at 3-1 Blake

 Fish is so unreliable, I never want to back him again. Why doesn't he just retire.

 Fish might get this match Blake struggle to get passed Donald yound. Lost the first set to unhealthy Darcis. Hitting 27 unforced errors in around 20 games. Fish 28 aces and 27 unforced errors for the match fish is my pick been doing well the last tournament
