    Talk me out of this parlay
    Almagro, Youzhny, Chardy, and Fognini... Little juice when packaged together.

    Without using the "Parlays are sucker bets" angle, can anyone think of a reason why any of these guys are likely to lose?

    Underdogs possibly exploiting a weakness? Unmotivated favorites? Injuries? etc?

    Worth a shot?

    too early in the season for me to feel comfortable with a parlay like this at early rounds of 250 tournaments

            1. Richard Gasquet* -570 vs Paul-Henri Mathieu
            2. 130 Gilles Simon* -360 vs Marc Gicquel
            3. 226 Mikhail Youzhny* -475 vs Bjorn Phau
            4. 301 Fabio Fognini* -470 vs Aljaz Bedene
            5. 309 Nicolas Almagro* -400 vs Martin Alund


            im really thinking about doing this it pays out really well, but i'm just scared of simon and almagro... thoughts? if you had to take only one play out which would it be?

              I don't really like Simon there. All French matchup in France. Last time Gilles was in something like this was @ the French masters 1000. He shoulda lost that match to Mahut. Giquel motivated.

                  Parlays aren't sucker bets... only shitty parlays such as yours are.

                      You know, whenever I see topics where people ask for advice... There's always that one guy who offers completely useless (and stupid) input. That award goes to you. Props for the witty post.

                        That post of mine is neither useless nor stupid. It's got a lot of good things to teach you in fact.

                        "Cynical" would be a better choice of adjective.
