    Careful betting tennis Laver Cup totals (3rd set counts as 1 game)

    Made this bet totally forgetting about the 3rd set tiebreaker. Had to go on live chat to find out it counts as one game. Got lucky with this bet cuz Diego after winning the 1st set once down a break in the 2nd set had no incentive to really keep fighting to hold serve. With that said, no reason to ever bet Laver Cup overs cuz the 3rd set only counts for one game.

    That was built into the line though. That would be a really low total in a regular match after the first set.

    Yeah thought it seemed too good to be true figuring Rublev only needed to win 4 games in the 2nd set to ensure over 19.5 w/o realizing if Diego wins < 3 games it's a loss.

    Really not even worth betting, slowest hardcourt I've ever seen. Opelka & Berrettini had less than 10 aces today should tell you all you need to know.

    Diego crushed me with the 6-1 5th set at the open loss vs that guy from Holland

    He's turned into a total choker. Lost last week as a -10K fav. in Davis Cup. Even this match I knew I should've taken Rublev live down 6-2 in the breaker fully expecting the choke.
