    Almagro -130

    Only straight bet available on the card tonight. If Tips doesn't get off to a fast start, Almagro will not let him back into the match like his previous opponents have. This one will go 4, but Almagro is a strong play here.

    Everyone is on Almagro it seems. I may be one of the few that thinks if Tipsarevic is on his game tonight, he wins this. Trying to muster up a play but I may just pass.

    H2H factor might be a reason and I disagree that Tipsy is the better player. They are on the same level, I just like the form I have seen from Almagro. Something is off with Tips.

    Almagro hasnt really had a close match thus far and Tipsy has played multiple 5 setters. Thats it.

    Nothing is "off" with Tipsarevic. He's had a much more difficult draw that most seeded players and he's seems to be taking sets off here or there if he gets broken early on. Not sure if it's a calculated risk or lapse of focus, but he's come through when he's needed to each point/game/set/match etc...

    Yeah and that is risky to do against a player like Almagro... he wont let him back into the mach. Johnson and Janowics are formidable opponents. Id be hard pressed to say Tips has had the harder draw.

    Gimeno-Traver and Johnson are not equal to Lleyton Hewitt in Australia and Lukas Lacko and I'd say Benneteau and Janowicz are a wash. Not saying Almagro has has a cakewalk of a draw or anything. He handled his business (except for Johnson. Allowing that to go 5 sets to start off your Grand Slam is probably not considered a success in his camp.) and moved on.

    I've been stewing on this one for a while. In a hard court match up against Almagro, you would usually have a lean towards Tipsy. I don't think the head to heads mean anything as one was on clay, which is adv Almagro, and the other was an exho. I think on form, and the fact that Tipsy came into the open with an injury cloud and has played consecutive 5 setters, then the price is probably about right for Almagro. I don't see value in either of them though, so just have to sit out I think.

    Tipsy is done. Even if he was at 100% , hard to win the way Almagro is playing.

    Now with the heel injury timeout, no way he gets past this match.

    MDF. He may not win, but Tipsy taking an injury timeout means nothing. Dude always acts like he's injured and then all of a sudden if he starts hitting shots he forgets about it.

    Should be an entertaining one with Ferrer and Almagro... much better than the Nishikori match.

    I jumped on Almagro to win Set 2 at (-227) near the end of the first set. If Tipsarevic makes it through the second set, everyone should consider betting Almagro for Set #3. Pinnacle has pulled it off the board now, but maybe others have it available still?

    Tipsarevic seems determined to tough it out, but he's completely outmatched right now.

    Tipseravic would win 100% if he was healthy. On this surface. Not on the clay but on this surface he in a best of 5 he has a lot more firepower than Almagro

    Almost made it, 5-1. Bet cancelled due to early retirement... Oh well.

    Tough to see Tipsarevic go out that way after seeing him play really great at times this tournament. Super glad I decided to lay off this one because I would probably have taken Tipsy.

    Depends on the book. Most books do if you complete 1 set then the money line stands, but for spreads/totals, the whole match must be completed. If you didn't ask your bookie before the match, most likely he won't count if it was a big bet.

    Ummm, no. The guy couldn't put any pressure on his left foot for most of the match. The fact he lasted as long as he did is saying something.

    That Gonzaga ending was the worst beat I've seen all year in hoops.
