    Still frustrated from late night AUS Open Loss...

    Troicki vs Ferrero

    Took Ferrero at +175 against Troicki...Odds on Troicki were around -250 I believe..not really sure...

    Anyways,..Ferrero came out REAL strong...Won the first two sets...
    2-0 Ferrero...So I just went to bed...thinking this was already in the bag..

    Wake up this morning to see the rest of the match stats..
    The 3rd set..loss.. 4th set loss...5th and final set..loss again.. WTF????



    How did he come out so strong winning the first 2 sets,. then losing the next 3 straight sets??
    DAMNT!! Would have been a nice hit for me....

    Yeah I was on him too. Apparently he needed a medical TO for blisters on his hands after the 2nd, then had some bad calls and the crowd was behind Troicki = bye bye money

    all good...have to find another good dog to run with... I love huge odds against some of these players though...very enticing..

    damn it Mahut was the best dog of the day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was gonna lay the M/L on him but decided to lay off and play the handicap instead.

    dravidC - I only chose the Mahut +2.5 sets option, and am also kicking myself for not playing him as a dog. Ferrero was my only other dog play of the day and that was a frustrating loss. He had a match point in the 4th set but I knew if he couldn't close it out there the 5th set was going to be a formality.

    Yes - usually I hedge out automatically after any dog I take goes up 2-0, but one can't always be near their computer or on their phone
