You know out of tall those matches they are about 20 favored stiffs that will lose..

Only thing I hate about the Challengers are the lack of score updates on some of them. The ones that have their own links off the ATP are cool, but like the Baton Rouge one - no live scoring. Livescore, etc. usually struggle to update Challenger events.

One I dig in Baton Rouge is Lindahl at +130 over Kim. Hard courts are better for the young Aussie. Lindahl isn't as good as the other Aussie (Tomic), but Kim seems to keep people in his matches.

I swear I f I had any ginormus bankroll I would bet against all seeded players in the lower tier money challengers(30,000-50000)The top seeded players are usually ranked 100+,and for the stiffs the stakes are so much more,getting 400 dollars to make the tourney barely covers burger king and a night at the motel 6.Getting to the QF or SF means they can pay the rent this month,not to mention very valuable ATP points which gives them a dream to possibly make a QF for a ATP 250 event..
