7-6, 6-3, 4-6, 6-3 (or any combination of that) pushes one of your bets and loses the other two. Personally, I was just too nervous for there not to be a tie break or even a double break in one of the sets to make that big a play, but I did have the same rationale as you.
I thought about that but my reasoning is with this "new" Murray and his beast mode serving, he'll keep most of these sets very close. In previous years, after Djoker breaks Murray, he'll immediately pounce on Andy the following games and end up with a 6-3 6-2 set. Not anymore......Murray serve is gonna bail him outta a lot of break points today.
Good luck on your play

I never understand how players have issues with their shoes. You'd think they'd wear broken in ones for such an important match. I think it was Ferrer who had a problem this week too. DON'T WEAR NEW SHOES DJOKO!!

Murray is not serving well, has to take something off the first serve to get it in, Joker just failing to capitalize.

Murray was the best defensive player, now he added some massive offensive game which makes him the best player right now. Also much stronger on the mental side. Since Lendl took over, Murray's became a different player.

Disagree.....Murray's serve this whole tournament has been incredibly strong. He blew Fed off the court with his serving and that was the big difference that won him that match imo.
His serve just bailed him outta Djoker breaking him that last game.

Murray's serve is great when it's on, not on tonight so far though.
Look at the speed.

Great serving is not all about speed......far from it. Placement and spin is much more effective. Its not all about aces either ......serving winners are way more important than aces.

Murray served countless nonreturnable 200+ serves against Fed, they are not here tonight so far, if he served like this Fed would have beaten him.
His serves have not been great sliders or kickers so that's a cop out.
Joker has just failed to take his chances.

119, right in the hit zone. You can't defend that point.

Joker failed to take his chances because he's hitting him into the net or barely getting his racquet on it.......placement and spin is the cause.

If Murray's 1st serves was any better today, it never woulda been this close.
In the rallies Djokovic has no chance.
Djokovic is very weak mentally.

I guess that last service winner by Andy to end the game was a long rally.

Seaweed is incapable of joking or laughter. He is serious all the time.
He once went to a comedy club, and didn't laugh once. He was too busy thinking about his next wager.

Nope, if you've been watching the match....he's served at least 6 to 8 service winners in just this set alone. You just cant see it cus you're betting on Djoker.
I've got the Over so I've been watching both players closely.

There's no point continuing this discussion if you think he's serving as good as he did verse Fed.
It's not even close.

Good news for the over 3.5 sets bet. Murray more likely to get straight setted than Djokovic. Now you take the 2nd set Nole and we remove all sweat.
