    Ferrer vs Federer....

    Dont know why, but part of me thinks ferrer has a chance here. Im definately liking the Ferrer +4.5 games here. Looks as if he may have gained some confidence after winning his first masters, kinda like murray. Just hoping Ferrer keeps it close. Over 21 games may be an option as well

    I took Federer at -575.... I think that's a very fair price considering he's 14-0 against Ferrer. so I'm getting better than 6:1 just because of Ferrer's recent form.

    13-0 and nobody beats David Ferrer 14 times in a row. hope he can use that famous quote after this match.

    Why would you take any bet at -575 other than in a parlay?

    What difference does a parlay make?? Square.

    if he's 14-0 against Ferrer, how is that not at least 14:1 odds that he'll win? You guys really make me

    Because no way would I feel comfortable betting nearly $600 to win $100. Have you not seen bad beats in the past? I'm not trying to knock you or anything man. Just stating that I don't personally like doing that.

    But in the case of a parlay, I wouldn't be laying nearly $600 to win $100. That is the difference.

    P.S. fuk the square vs sharp concept. All I care about is winning 1 bet at a time

    me 2. And I felt that Federer was way more than -575 favorite. Ferrer's been out there struggling and winning while Federer has been preparing for this tournament.

    If you think about it if you lay $100 and you're down to 3 wins out of 4, you're still betting -575 and then you have to think about hedging since you didn't want to bet that much in the first place.

    Anyways I appreciate the response.
