mrdannyg 274 Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 what a sick shot by BenardThat was damn sweet.What is with Olympic curling? Seems like all the games are always super-close. I would've thought Canadians had a bigger advantage than we typically show.Bet underdogs? Link to post Share on other sites
Ottawa_Biatch 288 Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 Yeah underdogs are doing very well so far @ the Olympics. Canada has the better skip, but their leads and seconds are not playing well @ all, and if they don't play well, it doesn't set up the end very well at all. Link to post Share on other sites

I don't even try to think about it, I just wait for the announcers to tell me if it was a good shot or not Link to post Share on other sites

mrdannyg 274 Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 She kicked it!? I've never seen that happen in this level of curling before.WOWfor anyone not watching:It's tied in the 10th, Canada has the hammer. Swiss have a pretty good set-up, and Canada's final shot for the win is setting up to be pretty tough. Canada makes a fantastic shot, taking out all of the Swiss stones, setting up a very likely win. But wait! It hit the Canadian skip on its way out. That gives the Swiss the option of putting the rock where they thought it'd go, or just leave it there. Leaving it there would've been a very good spot for the Swiss, but they immediately and without discussion moved it way back, into a disadvantageous position for them.I realize its the sportsmanlike thing to do, and anything else would be pretty bad. Still though, to do it without discussion was pretty nice, especially since it severely hurt their position. Link to post Share on other sites

Ottawa_Biatch 288 Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 I want this game to get to the end of the 1st 0-0, and maybe place an in-play bet on the Canadians. Right now you can bet them on the ML, but it is 1.005 Link to post Share on other sites
