Portoroz, Slovenia (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Unseeded Russian Anna Chakvetadze
scored a surprise victory in second-round action at the Slovenia Open.
On Wednesday, Chakvetadze dismantled four-seed Italian Sara Errani by a 6-1,

It was a sudden end to the tournament for Errani, who produced a hard-fought
straight-set victory against Georgian qualifier Anna Tatishvili on Tuesday.
Slovene Polona Hercog also advances, getting by countrywoman Katarina
Srebotnik 6-4, 6-7 (3-7), 6-3 on the hardcourts. Hercog will have to take down
Stefanie Voegele of Switzerland, who downed Austrian Tamira Paszek by a 7-5,
6-4 result.
In other action, sixth-seed Vera Dushevina of Russia dispatched unranked
Virginie Razzano of France 4-6, 7-5, 6-2. Dushevina's road to the next round
doesn't get any easier, as she faces a showdown with Chakvetadze.

"Barry's going to play in 2007," Jeff Borris of Beverly Hills Sports Council told the Times on Tuesday. "I've had many discussions with Barry and he's going to play. My intentions are to see to it he's in a big-league uniform next season. Those are my marching orders."

Academy Award Betting Odds for Best Picture Offer Great Value
If there is any category that is not an obvious win for any one nominee in this year's Academy Awards, it would be for Best Picture. Sure the Departed is a 5/7 favorite, but that's hardly anything when we look at Helen Mirren and her "out-of-reach" 1 to 40 odds (which means you would win a whopping $1 for every $40 bet).
For value, take a look at MySportsbook.com Oscars betting odds on my personal favorite, The Queen - a remarkable 12 to 1 long shot. The film hasn't won any pre-awards for Best Picture (compared to The Departed and Little Miss Sunshine), but there is a tremendous following and it is a strong enough film to warrant a surprise win.
TV Guide advises Oscar watchers should be cautioned not to discount the drama "Babel" with its strong social themes about overcoming communication gaps among people of different cultures.
"While 'Babel' lost several guild awards to 'Sunshine' and 'Departed,' it still enjoys loyal support, and historically Oscar voters favor dramas with social messages over comedies like 'Sunshine' and violent crime movies like 'Departed'."
"It hasn't done well in the guilds, which means there isn't much industry support," said Tom O'Neil of awards site TheEnvelope.com, "But several critics are expecting it to win, and that gets my attention." Babel had 7 to 2 odds at press time.
Who is to say independently produced Little Miss Sunshine won't be this year's Crash. Last year, Crash won for Best Motion Picture, shocking those who bet on gay cowboy flick, Brokeback Mountain, as the favorite to win.
