02/08/2010 - Rotterdam, The Netherlands (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - French Open runner-up Robin Soderling and fifth-seeded Tommy Robredo highlighted Monday's first-round winners at the $2 million ABN AMRO World Tennis Tournament.

The third-seeded Soderling came from behind to beat France's Florent Serra 4-6, 6-4, 6-1, while Robredo straight-setted Dutch wild card Robin Haase 7-6 (7-4), 6-4 on the indoor hardcourts at Ahoy' Stadium.

The world No. 8 Soderling, a 2008 Rotterdam runner-up, avoided opening his 2010 season with three straight losses by coming back to top Serra with the help of 26 aces.

In other Day-1 action, Andreas Seppi defeated qualifier and fellow Italian Stephane Bohli 6-1, 7-5, German Florian Mayer outlasted Serbian Janko Tipsarevic 6-3, 6-7 (6-8), 7-6 (8-6), and Dutch qualifier Igor Sijsling surprised German Mischa Zverev 6-7 (2-7), 6-3, 7-5.

This week's top seeds are world No. 2 Novak Djokovic and Russian star Nikolay Davydenko, who will open his stay here against last week's Johannesburg titlist Feliciano Lopez. The Serbian Djokovic will meet Ukrainian Sergiy Stakhovsky here on Tuesday.

Andy Murray, who is not defending his title this week, upset Rafael Nadal in last year's blockbuster Rotterdam finale. Nadal is also not part of this week's field.

Albert Pujols to be This Year's Home Run Champ Says Online Sportsbook

Barry Bonds is a 50-1 long shot to be this year's home run champ odds.  The favorite to be this year's home run champ is none other than Albert Pujols, however.

Now that Barry Bonds is signed and in Giants camp, it is on to his pursuit of all of sports most prestigious records: the all-time home run mark. Bonds sits just 21 homers shy of tying Hank Aaron for the career mark at 755. Word out of Giants’ camp is that Bonds is the healthiest he has been in a few years. Bonds is just two seasons removed from his injury riddled 2005 campaign where he played in only 14 games and hit only 5 home runs. He did come back last year and had a solid season hitting .270 with 26 bombs. All eyes will be on Bonds this spring and summer not only because of his home run chase but his highly publicized steroid abuse allegations. If and when Bonds breaks the record, he surely will not get the positive attention one should for breaking a record that was once thought of as “unbreakable”. Despite Bonds decent season last year, he is just 50-1 at MySportsbook.com to lead the MLB in long balls this season.

Not surprisingly, the favorites to go deep the most times this season are Albert Pujols 5-1, Ryan Howard 6-1, David Ortiz 8-1 and Alex Rodriguez 12-1. With 49 homers, Pujols finished second in the National League behind Howard (58). Pujols is considered the favorite due to the consistent power numbers that he has posted since breaking into the league in 2001. Also one must consider the fact that he played in 16 fewer games then Howard did due to an injury. Howard smashed 58 homers in his first complete season of big league play en route to the National League MVP odds award. He silenced his critics by successfully hitting left-handed pitching. Howard also displayed the ability to use his power to the opposite field. Two attributes which should keep Howard amongst the league leaders in long balls for years to come. From the American League representatives, David Ortiz leads the field. Ortiz was second in the majors last year with 54 home runs. Except for 1999 when he only played in 10 games, Ortiz has improved on his home run numbers each year he has been in the majors (1997).

It's less than a month until the NHL hockey betting season opens at MySportsbook.com and preparations are underway for another battle in the race to hoist Lord Stanley's mug in 2007.

As cup crazy fans prepare to place their bets, one online sportsbook ,MySportsbook.com, is offering hockey betting lines on the 2007/2007 Stanley Cup , who will bring it home this upcoming season.

Despite a poor showing in last season's playoffs and the loss of Steve Yzerman to retirement, the Detroit Red Wings are early favourites at this online sportsbook with wagering odds of 6-1. The Wings will look to offensive powerhouse Pavel Datsyuk and newly appointed captain Nicklas Lidstrom to lead one of the league's most prominent franchises.

Always a threat are the Ottawa Senators, with newly acquired goaltender Martin Gerber from the Stanley Cup champion ,Carolina Hurricanes. The Sens are second best in the rankings at a 7-1 bet, and odds makers at this sportsbook are optimistic that the Ottawa squad will fare better than last season's Eastern Conference semi-final upset to the Buffalo Sabres.

Also worth noting are the defending Stanley Cup champs Carolina Hurricanes, a 10-1 bet to repeat. Behind the Canes are the New Jersey Devils, Calgary Flames, Buffalo Sabres, Philadelphia Flyers, and Anaheim Mighty Ducks all sit at 12-1. In the basement are the Washington Capitals, Chicago Blackhawks, and St. Louis Blues who all have 100-1 odds to win.
