amazing odds, before i saw it i was thinking montanes will keep it close and maybe even steal a set or two

what do you guys think?

[Boner_18]

Absolutely. I am writing my tennis blog now and passed up writing on this match b/c of time constraints. But that is a great line. Where is that?

Montanes took a set from Fed (albeit on clay) in '08. He lost the next two sets 6-0, 6-1 making that number no good but he is in much better form today than he was then.

[RobbReport]

Federer maybe looking to tighten up form now. perfect time to end it quick to conserve for the next guy.

[michalis]

the line is from bet365

[EaglesPhan36]

Montanes won't win a set. No opinion on the handicap.

[Tsonga]

You could get +10 when I was looking at it... But I wouldn't take it.... Fed will take this 3-0....I don't think montanes scares him a bit.... Lots of other matches could work out for the dog but not this one.

[Boner_18]

Yeah def. gonna take it 3-0 here but 18 - 9.5 = 8.5... just gotta win 3 service games a set. I still like it.

[Tsonga]

I see the logic there...you got your 3 in the first.

[Boner_18]

There is the 3 in the second... Wouldn't mind an insurance game here.

[Tsonga]

Looking good for you...I'm hoping for 3-0

[EaglesPhan36]

You'll know just how fixed tennis can be if Federer wins the 3rd set 6-1 or 6-0.

[Boner_18]

yeah up a break already...

[Boner_18]

Cash the + games... unless montanes takes this and then loses at love... ultimate jinx lol

[michalis]

lol, good call boner, congrats

[Boner_18]

Did you get on the +210 line? I can't play at 365 so i had to settle for -110.

[Dr.Gonzo]

Good call

[michalis]

Did you get on the +210 line? I can't play at 365 so i had to settle for -110.

-110 ???? why so much difference?

very weird thats like 20 points less than bet365

oh well, I hope you still made a nice profit for the day

[Boner_18]

-110 for +10. Plus it was about 5 hours before the line came out at 5dimes.

[michalis]

I am really sorry boner, but i am from europe and Im used to decimal odds, I am just now getting into this, what does -110 for +10 mean? thank you

[aceking]

$$$$$$

Yeah figured you were b/c of the Bet365 (euro book). It means I got US odds of -110 for Montanes + 10 games. This is equivilent of Montanes +10 games @1.91.

[michalis]

cool thank you boner

well that makes sense then why your odds where lower, you got it for +10 while mine was +9.5
