    Montreal day 2
    Yesterday, basically all matches were won by favs, except for D Young's win (don't really know why Kudla was set as fav there)...

    Question is: will it be the same results today?
    I very much doubt it.

    so in search for some dog wins:

    1) Johnson @ 2.30 vs Goffin
    risking 1u

    Finally Steve has showed some good form in getting to semis in Washington and think he has a decent chance here.

    2) Youzhny @ 3.2 vs Troicki
    risking 1u

    This one's a real catch. Surely one of the worst seasons for Russian but his best chance has always been on hard courts and 2 Q's wins can get him into some form. Troicki on the other hand has somewhat stumbled a bit lately. This can be a close one so pick goes here for bigger odds.

    3) Gulbis @ 2.1 vs Thiem
    risking 1u

    This is very risky of course, knowing how bad Gulbis has been playing, then again he showed some spirit against Mahut by fighting back form one set and a break down. Thiem is a different class player, but he might be worn out after the long run in that clay-court tourney.

    4) Karlovic @ 2.97 vs Raonic
    risking 1u

    Raonic has some health issues this year, and therefore his defence might not be good enough. He hasn't played a lot as well. Karlo will power through so it's just a matter of who wins tie-breaks. And again odds are just too tempting for not going with Croat.


    Other options for today:

    Tipsy @ 4 vs Agut
    Robredo @ 6 vs Murray

    Both are selectable but I only will pick any of them if first couple of picks are successful. Might go for game or set handicap with them as well.

      I like Johnson over Goffin as a dog, but Thiem should beat Gulbis. 3-1 vs him and is in incredible form

          Only thing is, Thiem has been on clay so much it might be hard to transition back to hard. Gulbis definitely is a live dog but I can't touch this match

                Was watching the match and saw a big yellow thing on Thiems head, I thought for sure it was a hat. They close up and he died his hair, is he coming out?

                    Can Raonic play a set that'll be tie-break-free?

                            always, good to have someone wet.

                            t'was indeed a good day, and thanks to SteveJ I skipped Tipsy pick.

                            Will post some wet-making picks in a moment.
