I have 25 bucks on Monaco to win it all at 100-1. I'll hedge and put 30 in Nadal. Win win.

Raonic will be a monster in a few years, he's still pretty raw for the most part...which is why its scary.

He's developing-adapting quicker than most anticipated. Berdych kind of talent, and if/when he puts it together...game over.IMO anyway.

You can't really hedge this bet. You would need to put $2,500 on Nadal to get your $25 back. And if Nadal somehow loses ( ) you'd need Monaco to win the whole thing to cover that loss.

I did this dumb shite once when Lennox Lewis was a big favorite in the Klitshcko fight he should have lost. I bet like $1,500 to win $300. Dumbest bet of my life. Klitschko should have won and I got bailed out by a cut. I vowed never to bet a heavy favorite again for a small return. Monaco beating Rafa seems ridiculous, but Rafa could turn an ankle or hurt the knee. It's not worth the heart attack you suffer watching it.

This is one of my two favorite sports up there with college football, but I can't get into it knowing Rafa is going to kill everyone. The easy draw makes it even worse. I could sort of see a Delpo or Berdych getting hot and beating him, but they are all in Fed and Nole's half. Ferrer is a fighter, but more of a dog that nips at your heels. He doesn't have the guns to beat Rafa, though I know he has on hardcourts in majors. Let's fastforward to Sunday.

Rafa won't be -10000 against Monaco. Shouldn't be.

I bet on boxing once. Never again. Amir Khan lost in a decision on BS pushing fouls.

Yeah I wouldnt be shocked, it's do-able. (Raonic) just can be pretty streaky for gaps here and there like most who hit that big of a ball. Aussie will be a good indicator next year.

Good to see Gasquet finally step up a bit this past week, has always had some of the prettiest groundstrokes on the planet...ridiculously smooth.

I was checking on Bwin. Other sites have it as low as -3500. Most have it at between -5000 and -6000
