    Monaco - Almagro thoughts?
    Hi, I'm new to betting tennis, I've been following it for a while since the soccer season is over. I was just wondering what your thoughts are on the Monaco Almagro game, I'm thinking Monaco +1.5 sets @ 1.57?

    Had the same bet on their last H2H

    Almagro was 2/3 on Break points Monaco was 0/10 and I Lost dramatically

    Monaco missed several set points.It was very painful to watch Almagro saving one Break points after another, some of them were gifts from Pico

    I think yours is the best bet but be prepared for some stress

      Yeah always going to be a close call, just don't see Monaco loosing in straight sets here, he has been playing well in the previous matches, anyway I'll probably take it in a parlay just trying to pick out the best combination for today

        Both players r shaky mentally. In current form, Monaco is getting better, but has no serve still. Almagro for me

            I think this is too much juice to rely on Monaco. I know Monaco has points to defend but Almagro thrives on beating lesser players and he looked sharp yesterday.

                Haas will be out for revenge tomorrow and should punish tired fognini. Dunno about verdasco, the odds are probably correct. He must be also getting pretty tired and Del bonis plays well now.

                  Watching monaco was hard for me. Almagro on clay is much better than Paire any day!

                    Delbonis maybe coming to an end soon

                      I was looking at the over 21.5 on Verdasco DelBonis but I think I'm staying away from this game, Haas looks good as well to me

                          I may just throw a decent amount on Almagro. The other plays are very tough. Although I do like Hass to win, i feel Fognini still has a shot at that match.

                            Almagro found some good form again in his last two beatdowns of Kamke and tough Garcia-Lopez on clay. I even like him on the reduced juice games line -2.5 games -115. Monaco looked decent but if Almagro shows up in that same form from the last two days, Monaco might get straighted.

                              almagro has played very well. 6-4 6-3 seems right

                                Giving a second thought Almagro ML is better. That game in Barcelona was painful to watch for me Monaco wasting 10 break points

                                Almagro ML is my bet

                                  ended up taking the Almagro ML as well after reading the posts, basically I'm still thinking it will be 2-1 Almagro but this seems the safer bet

                                  so 1 unit on Almagro and Verdasco ML parlay

                                  + a small play on Almagro, Verdasco, Haas, Peya/Soares and Dukla Praha(soccer) to win 2 units


                                  BOL everyone Thanks for sharing your thoughts

                                      Honestly don't feel comfortable taking Almagro at that price. Not a troll that likes to go against the consensus, just not a big believer in him given his clay form (6 wins out of 10 matches). Granted, Monaco's record is boosted by the fact that his opponents are of lower calibre than Almagro's, still, don't like a possible nut-sweater on a 1.5 bet.

                                        Monaco started off strong winning that first set but he's fading into the mental relapse zone again this second set. Shades of what happened yesterday with Paire second set.

                                                      Wow there was Monaco's best chance right there. Up 0-40 and couldnt break. The Almagro -2.5 games will cash if this goes into a tiebreak regardless of who wins.

                                                          almagro gets tough when the pressure is on
                                                          monaco gets tight
                                                          couple points here or there and that's the difference

                                                                To be honest , the Larsson bet was actually a tip I got from a sharp tipster I know from another forum. I gave him the Knapp tip and he returned the favor. He hit it right on the nail on that one.
