    Le French

    Pending futures: Serena @ +200, risking 2 units, Halepeno @ +600 risking 0.5 units, Novak @ -175 to win 3 units.

    Will maybe add a longshot after the draw is revealed.

    Great shot at making the final but definitely a tougher road than Novak. Love the draw for Joker

    Seriously, Nadal in semis, hello ? Also, you got mugged by your bookie. Djoker was -120 and Serena +240 before the draw. Should be even better odds after the draw.

    Djokovic never should have crossed even money in my opinion.

    I don't view Nadal as an obstacle. In any event, that's realistically the only one he has to overcome before the final.

    Odds wise , yes, you pay extra for dealing with locals in general.

    But in any event not nearly as bad as I mugged him hitting Angie at +4500 to win the AO earlier this year.

    I actually put a pinch on Kei to win the tourney at the last minute, but to be honest, I just don't see anything getting in Novak's way now. Even if he had played and beaten Rafa, we know how much work that requires, which might have left him vulnerable in the final-- similar to how last year Stan benefited from some fortuitous scheduling/rest.

    At this point I'm just letting my Novak futures ride. Andy has shown me nothing. Kei is Kei. If Novak can't win the FO with this path utterly cleared for him, he never will. I think he will.

    Stan giving Novak even more help by extending this match with Murray. Futures in great position. Added several units to Novak along the way, will be adding more in the final. Letting Serena ride.

    Nole for his first FO title!
