Buenos Aires, Argentina (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Peru's Luis Horna, who came into
this week ranked 50th in the world, picked off top seed David Nalbandian in
his home country at the $445,000 Copa Telmex tennis event.
Horna scored a 6-4, 6-3 win in the round-robin tournament in the first meeting
against his Argentine opponent.
Another round-robin upset came when Spaniard Albert Montanes took out third-
seeded Argentine favorite Agustin Calleri 6-7 (4-7), 6-4, 6-4 at the Buenos
Aires Lawn Tennis Club. Calleri, who was the runner-up here in 2002, beat
Montanes last week in Costa do Sauipe
In other round-robin stage action, fourth-seeded Spaniard Nicolas Almagro
downed Argentine Martin Vassallo Arguello 7-5, 6-4; fifth-seeded Spaniard
Carlos Moya beat Italian Potito Starace, 6-4, 6-4; and Ecuador's Nicolas
Lapentti topped France's Nicolas Devilder 6-3, 2-6, 6-3.
Moya topped Italian Filippo Volandri in last year's clay-court finale here.
Moya also captured this event in 2003 and was the runner-up in 2004.
In another round-robin match, Italy's Alessio Di Mauro topped Spain's Ruben
Ramirez Hidalgo, 6-4, 7-6 (10-8).
In main-draw elimination play, Argentine Guillermo Canas stayed red hot by
dousing his countryman Juan-Pablo Guzman 7-6 (7-4), 6-3. Canas, who recently
returned to the ATP following a doping suspension, is fresh off his title last
week in Costa do Sauipe.
Also in main-draw elimination play, Brazilian Flavio Saretta subdued Czech
Lukas Dlouhy 6-3, 6-1.
This week's tournament is a 32-player round-robin draw consisting of a 16-
player "play-off," with eight winners joining 16 other players to make up
eight groups of three players. Each player then plays two guaranteed
matches in the round-robin stage. The winner from each group will advance to
the knockout round (quarterfinals), and then will play out the event, per a
traditional single-elimination format.
The 2007 Copa Telmex winner will collect $66,450.

Stanley Cup betting
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.
