What the fukk, might as well jinx these right by posting @ SBR. Holla if ya hear the money falling out of my accounts at a rapid clip!
1. Kukushkin +100 Kuku is in horrid form for the most part, but his track record suggests that there is one thing you can count on and that is effort in Davis Cup play. Hajek is a vet for the Czechs, but he's not a heavily experienced DC player. I'd rate the surface about even for the two as both have some okay results on clay albeit Hajek has done more damage at Challengers on dirt. First rubber, home team. Kuku with the chance to put the pressure on the Czechs for the rest of the weekend. Taking the shot.
2. Tsonga-Berlocq Over 36 [-130] Argentina is no easy venue for visiting players. The crowd will be loud and raucous. Tsonga's been here, but his usual mode of lazy play could again lend itself to seeing someone like Berlocq at minimum - taking a set and pushing Tsonga to have to play to a fairly high level. Not sure Berlocq has the juice to pull off the straight upset, but I do think he can stretch Tsonga out to at least four sets. Even at 37.5 where I see many books, I think it's worth a roll - but 36 @ 5dimes is definitely the best I have seen if you like the Over.
*More potentially to come when they post up Canada-Italy & Serbia-USA lines. Let's get buried!!
I don't really see what's that great about the Italians chances here. Surface was picked to suit the Canadians. They has Pospisil playing on an indoor hard surface for a tune-up and he made the Final albeit on the Challenger level. Seppi will be tough, but not unbeatable on the surface by any means. Really the worry would have been if Raonic hadn't recovered from his bout with strep throat, but reports indicate he is fine. It's tough because of the Italians experience, but really if Canada splits the 1st two - they should have the edge in doubles and then just have to win one of two at the end.
Not sure what the odds are for +2.5 sets, but if Raonic is 100% and firing - it could go straights, not sure I want to touch that one at all.
