friday's australian open parlay.... thoughts?

Just worried about Nishikori....Benneteau is in really good form right now and I think he may be able to get a win here.

Why even put Monfils in it at -900? He will probably win but the value added to the parlay is not much.

Well without Monfils the parlay pays out $416. With Monfils the parlay pays out $483. I think Monfils is "fairly certain" to pull out a victory therefore I thought the risk was worth the extra $67 payout that I will get if it hits and he does win.

Fed/Nadal for tomorrow gives you about -541, I'd be adding that to the parlay before Monfils - if you're willing to parlay over two days play.

Nishikori vs Benneteau is a complete coin flip though IMO but BOL with it.

This. You're risking a 3rd pick/injury/whatever for $67 extra bucks? You gotta be smart with parlays and not greedy IMO. Too many times people get burned by added "sure things" to get a few extra bucks. If you're sold on the other two, stick with those two only.
