Youzhny -150 over Mayer

[aman86]

I want to play this as I know Youzhny is a much better ball striker than Mayer and he usually comes to play in the majors whereas Mayer sweeps up the small stuff. I understand Mayer recently beat Murray but am not too concerned as then he lost bad to Monfils later in that tourny when it counted anyway.

Can I get any opinion on this match and possibly injury/motivational factors that those in the know may be aware of? I am a little concerned of Youzhny's retiring issues stemming from the end of last year to the first of 2014.

Thanks

Avoid non-void betting by going for sets or spreads rather than ML. I think this is a good bet even at those odds. Youzhny has been sick lately in general, and although Mayer is not bad by any means his fitness cannot contend throughout potentially five sets.

I hear you..I think that's best bet..unfort ah just moved to -3 at -110 but safer in terms of retirement at -160 now which I've been burned on before...looks like youzhny had a stomach bug it should be gone by now

Just do -.5 or whatever and you're all non-non-void.

Mayer won their last 3 meetings the over might be the play today

[aman86]

I hear you on the over (since it should be a relatively close match) and while I think it will go 4... there's too many 6-2 6-3 sets for these guys and not enough tiebreaks that it really might have to go 5 to get the over and I can't bank on that

still undecided at the moment... whether either youzhny -160, -3 or no play...

I don't think I have the -.5 option at 5 dimes??

Surprising, but impressive by Mayer.
