What do you guys think? Is it worth a shot?

Petzschner has gone deep in this tournament the last couple of years, and he beat Raonic here last year. I don't know how motivated Raonic will be to win tomorrow since it's just a 250 tournament.

If Petz wasn't just a big bag of shit this year, I'd say hell yeah - he's got a good grass court pedigree. Whether it's his wrist or just decline, he's been absolutely terrible in 2012. I could see a try on the handicap, but right now Petz doesn't look capable of beating anyone on any surface. I think we brought it up last year, but he more or less seems like he's content with being a doubles specialist with Melzer now rather than any sort of threat in singles.

You're definitely correct about Petz being a bag of crap this season ... It all depends on Raonic's disposition, but with the way Petz has looked this year, Raonic could sleepwalk his way through this match and still win.

I'm going to see where the line goes ... maybe Petz ML will go to +600 or higher. If it doesn't go anywhere, I'll probably stay away. It's probably a $10-$15 bet at most.

I think it's worth it like you said if it goes +600 just because he beat him here last year. I watched their match at AO this year and from what I remember Petz had serious chances to push it to 5, he can take the return early and really put pressure on Raonic at net too.
Also while Raonic's serve clearly translates to grass he's only had 1 real year of playing on it. Petz has a real nice grass game imo, home country advantage. I mean if Petz is playing real well, keeping his bhand slice low, hitting the forehand well, and obv serving well he def has a chance here, even if his year is that bad, stepping on grass can completely change someone's season. I'm gonna skip this one, but +600 worth it for sure

I think handicap is definitely a better option, seeing as Raonic couldn't get a break if it came up and smacked him in the face. One dimensional fukk. Take the plus games

[EaglesPhan36]

+500 or +600, you might give me +800 and I don't know that I'd think Petz will win. I just see nothing to like about this match really.

As EP said, Petz is unbackable at the moment.
