those are some bad odds...what book do you use?

Megatron, take out Gulbis and find someone more trustworthy who doesn't lose to random scrubs quite often. You never know if he's showing up to a tournament to play or party. Not worth the risk at those odds on him.

I'll take your advice. I'm still a noob to tennis. Thanks

I'm taking this for 1 unit:

Parlay
Benneteau, J -750
Petzschner, P -650
Cilic, M -1000
Kvitova, P -150

1 unit to win 1.4 units

Good chance it hits.

It still amazes me that people will throw such huge chalk in parlays to gain just a couple bucks, but add a chance to be real sick when a huge favorite blows it all.

See! I bloody knew it with this guy.

Gulbis at high chalk = avoid. No matter who he's playing. Don't look at the rank, don't look at the H2H, look at nothing. Never never never pay a premium for this wanker, even in a parlay.

Wow, you saved me big time!

You were spot on and it's much appreciated.

yes!!!

And while Bodog can be a bit behind when betting favourites... think of the flipside: If you had bet Rosol there you would've got a better price than most other places. Keep them for dogs and for the safety of their payouts (if you're in the US). Can't go wrong with them if you use them properly
