    So both favourites cover the spread in five sets

    I would hate to have bet Del Potro or Tsonga handicap

    Djokovic -6, he wins by 7
    Federer won by 9

    I like betting the set line much better than the games line. You would have cleaned up on these matches if you betted the dog set line.

    I think it's much better to play an over rather than handicap. If the dog covers it will go over more times than not. You don't see the dog winning straight sets too often. The only time I prefer handicaps is against Isner or Raonic. They are prone to win sets 7-6 so the games might actually matter against them since they can't break a serve and cause a blowout.
