Nadal/Djokovic Australian Final..Surprised Nadal A Dog

SamsNCharge99 · 01-25-19, 08:13 AM

not surprised. Joker favorited on hard court, Nadal favorited on clay

jjgold · 01-25-19, 08:13 AM

Nadal is playing much better

pavyracer · 01-25-19, 08:25 AM

I have Nadal +550 to win tourney.

Djokovic was +130 pre-tourney.

Thrilla · 01-25-19, 08:25 AM

And if Djokovic was +110 the thread title would have said "Surprised Djokovic a Dog"

Nice attempt JJ. Nice attempt of trying to look like a sharp.

If he looked at the futures prior to tourney he wouldn't be surprised but he is not sharp like you said.

Dude don't rub it in. Don't want him to get angry.

MinnesotaFats · 01-25-19, 08:49 AM

Joker had 4 or 5 unforced errors last match

That's insane

Most make 5 errors before switching sides

Fed was lucky to get out of Australia before these 2 turned him into hamburger

I missed Rafa last game, haven't liked his 2nd serve lately, and Joker just too 25/34 points on Pouille second serve so....

letsgo · 01-25-19, 10:15 AM

Nadal hasn't beaten him outside of clay since 2013 US Open.

well done

superb value considering how he is playing

jjgold · 01-25-19, 10:52 AM

I don’t think it goes five sets

jjgold · 01-25-19, 11:11 AM

I think it goes 4 sets

ikid2groove415 · 01-25-19, 11:14 AM

Joker easily

flabrah5 · 01-25-19, 11:23 AM

Not surprised at all. Djoker to the bank. Thought it'd be a -150 tbh. Love the low line!

t-wizzle · 01-25-19, 11:51 AM

Line is short. Why isn’t Djokovic -200 or close to it?

Nadal hasn't dropped a set yet... only reason

His 2nd serve has been trash thou

DigBick86 · 01-25-19, 01:33 PM

Dole will win this game with eazz not clay fingering Nadal

jjgold · 01-25-19, 02:24 PM

Nadal is playing very very well has not dropped a set be careful

Goat Milk · 01-25-19, 03:01 PM

Djokovic is the best in the world right now. I called this return when everyone said he'd be finished for a while. Remember JJ?

Nadal can certainly win this but Djokovic is jut too good on this Aussie surface. The courts are too quick, and Nadal doesn't get much pop with his spin. 4-5 years ago Nadal started hitting the ball very flat and that's why he was able to win majors on hard courts. He needs to go back to that to capture more hard court titles but I don't see that happening here.

Frank Mills · 01-25-19, 03:27 PM

Wow guys this should be great. 3:20am Sunday Will be only a couple hours after this fight:

Fedor Emelianenko vs. Ryan Bader

I like a parlay of Joker / Bader

-140/-279

1 to win 1.329

shadymcgrady · 01-25-19, 03:31 PM

Nadal seems different this time, flashes of his glory days. Still I hate betting against djoker in these spots

trust me, we don't care

DavidGoliath5003 · 01-25-19, 03:54 PM

The line is giving respect to Nadal for sure. Djokovic 7-0 14-0 for sets head to head in his last 7 vs nadal on hardcourts

this Is pretty much why I responded.. a completely useless point you made here like It makes a difference. I bet theres a bunch of points youve called that haven't come in-fruition .. I appreciate your insight in games by the way,

also, haven't bet against the pats yet as I'm weighing my options there. Appreciate your concern though and although I do lose my fair share (was on a 6 bet losing streak) I don't call shit in hindsight unless I quote the actual comment (refer to my Rams/Pats Super Bowl prediction I called (and Bet) back in September) so lets not go down that road... the whole thing seemed disingenuous like the point didn't even matter and you were making the point like an authoritative figure because you made some claim a year ago about someone who was fully capable of being the best tennis player getting healthy and making a comeback (like thats a difficult hill to die on)...

ThaTopMoron · 01-25-19, 06:37 PM

I'm a risk taker. Odd ball type at times with my live bets. These 2... anyone can win. Nadal can start out playing better and then the match can turn and do a 180 with just a few momentum swinging shots.

I'm going to wait and see who wins the first set and based on how it is won or lost/given away I am going to live bet the loser of the first set to win. I know that I will be guaranteed to get 100% effort out of whoever that is. I'm fine if they go on to lose.

My bet will be slightly larger on Joker if Nadal wins the first set due to his dominant defense that can turn matches around quickly.

pavyracer · 01-25-19, 07:28 PM

I don't think Nadal is fit to go 5 games. He needs to win in 3 sets or he is toast.

Frank Mills · 01-25-19, 07:47 PM

I know one thing I am going to try real hard to stay up and watch it live.

slayer14 · 01-25-19, 07:50 PM

No weakness in Nadal play he is hitting back hand flat and serving has been excellent these last 2 weeks.

homie1975 · 01-25-19, 08:52 PM

Coach
Djokovic has been favored over Rafa on every nonclay slam court since 2011 or so. A couple times he was even favored over rafa in Paris but he only beat rafa once there

biggie12 · 01-25-19, 09:20 PM

djoko not losing

unlearn · 01-25-19, 11:00 PM

Djoker undefeated in AO finals and Nadal has only won this tourney once. Novak -130 for me

DavidGoliath5003 · 01-25-19, 11:09 PM

Yeah the Value is massive on Diokovic for sure. The line definately suggests a 5 setter tho

jjgold · 01-25-19, 11:50 PM

Who’s form do you think is better?
