Albert Montanes -155
Risking $775 to win $500

If he loses I'm screwed.

If he wins in straight sets I party

If he wins in 3 sets I break even

Did this match already start? I don't see it listed.

It did not start. The match before it (Gicquel-Darcis) is currently in the 3rd set and match suspended because of rain. I'm sure the Montanes match is past the time most books had it to start, so maybe that's why your book no longer has it.

This rain is killing me though.

I also took Starace over Melzer in Austria (match just started), although a smaller bet. Starace has been good to me this tournament, so I played him to beat the home crowd favorite

I've got Hernandez in this

Starace was broken in the first service game of the match :-(

He's had his chances on breaking Melzer but has not been able to finish it off :-(

Rain in Holland is ANNOYING ME! I'm going to start checking weather reports on tennis matches from now on

Wow, you got lucky on that one, Darbis pulled a huge choke job after winning the first set rather easily.

This bet was for the semi-final against Hernandez..lol
