    Marko Djokovic +1000

    Serbia Open

    So I'm not a tennis watcher, but I know the Joker is thee top tennis player out there, but can someone explain to me why Djokovic +1000 vs Filippo Volandri?

    Why is the ML set in such a big favor for Volandri -2000?

    Because it his little brother and not Novak---there is still a slim chance volandri could throw the match

    Its still a good bet vs. a known fixer like Volandri.... Wouldn't surprise me at all to see an upset.

    No way volandri would throw this but I am interested to see how close this comes to the total of 18 at + money-- he would shave there if anything

    I wouldn't look too much into this game...no way can u bet Djokovic even at those odds, and Volandri will win but can't even parlay that ridic. price with anything.

    Marko is actually playing good... still down a break, but impressed with him so far.

    I didnt even know he had a brother.

    I guess he's kinda like Eddie Murphy's brother. Or Sylvestor Stallone's brother. Or Ozzie Canseco.

    These are the only tournaments Marko gets to play singles in are the ones in Serbia where Novak's pull gets him a wildcard entry. Otherwise the guy is complete trash as a singles player.

    He has received over 40 wild cards so far- the Dubai wild card was the biggest joke--djorde will be a little bit better at least

    Yeah I think Novak has gotten him that Dubai WC the last couple years. Perks of being a top player, you want me to come ... let me shitbag brother play too.
