    Dustin Brown ( + 6.5 @ -120) Vs Rafael Nadal today at Wimbledon !!

    LAKER_CRAZY'S ONE TENNIS PLAY FOR TODAY


    1) Dustin Brown vs Rafael Nadal ( Pick Dustin Brown + 6.5 @ -120) :
    Today we have a very interesting match up between the crowd favorite dustin brown against Rafa. Dustin has been very active on the challenger circuits and rarely do we see him play in grand slam,however he has been performing decently on grass for over a period of time now and possesses a big serve in his Armour that is very handy on this surface. Nadal has got first hand experience of the same last year in halle when brown literally blew him off the court 6-4,6-1 in a straight set victory and nadal really could not figure out a way to handle the serve or the net coverage of brown.

    The odds would like us to believe that this is going to be a stroll in the park for nadal but i do not think so. I think brown has a game to make this close and given rafa's recent struggles,i cannot back him on this handicap for sure. I believe brown will keep it close and we could also see a few tie breaks today and i would really not be surprised if brown does take a set off him. I am taking the plus handicap on brown today. Good luck

    This is a 3 unit play

    Cheers,
    LC

    That's a play of unimaginable value. I also think Brown could repeat here. I guess Nadal would rather exit the tournament today than wait to be disgraced by any of his major rivals.

    Totally agree Conqueror,i think the books are certainly over valuing nadal here. Brown thrives on grass and in this particular tournament where he seems to be totally enjoying his game,i certainly see a lot of value in backing brown and i will sprinkle a little on the money line as well. The handicap should cash easily.

    Please go ahead and sprinkle some $$$ on the ML before Brown wins and you go: "I wish I did the ML as well". I'm doing both too.

    Just did,placed half a unit on brown to win straight up and have increased the units on brown handicap from 3 to 4. Really confident of the play so makes sense to back it all the way. Good Luck to you too buddy !

    No problem budd,the plays were not posted for the people on the forum to agree or disagree,we are entitled to different opinions,in my opinion they are good plays and should cash,betting them or fading them is entirely upto the people reading the thread. Good luck to you too !

    He doesn't have to break him twice in a set to cover the spread, one break in 2 sets and win a tiebreak would do it.

    Well,Nadal was Number 1 in the world when he lost to brown and anyone who saw the way brown played at halle last year against nadal would be willing to back him just based on that only. I am not saying it will be the same and stuff here but certainly brown has the game to unsettle nadal and even take a set off him. The handicap is a good bet.

    Do you think Brown will win? I've got Nadal as the last player in a four-way parlay. I can close the bet at +!

    that all depended on which player was serving first...

    one break could be 6-3 or 6-4

    so that's what makes it tough

    easier for your player to cover if he serves first

    Even if something happens and you don't win this bet, just wanted to give you a thanks for making me want to watch the match. It's been much better than I thought it would've been and I'm cheering for you guys to get your $!!! I keep waiting for Brown to break down but even if he does, you at least picked a bet that was worth a go!

    Hey Shari,Glad to see you after the longest time..Hope all's well...it has been a great match thus far and brown has played some incredible tennis.Had been following his game for a while now and also happened to witness how he demolished nadal on grass in halle last year,i had no doubt in my mind that he would give this a shot and shot he has. Some of his returns have been incredible thus far,and he is deservedly up two sets to one..Hopefully we all cash this play
