Well, the odds I'm getting are rather pathetic at sportsbook.

Federer +200

Nadal +200

Joker +250

Obviously my theory of betting on all 3 won't work with these odds. Only if Joker would win, then a profit of $50 would be realized. Otherwise it would be a break even event.

Pinnacle has Nadal at +245

Federer at +233

Joker at + 372

I wish Pinnacle didn't leave the United States market.

How is the public perception skewed on Davy? Even in his prime he played awful at Wimby... now in the twilight of his career your thinking he goes on some sort of miracle run? Anything is possible but this is highly unlikely.

i'd rather have Ferrer at 200 to 1 odds than I would Davy.

Also... how can you claim to play at Pinny and not know how good the lines are?

have never seen futures at that much of a discrepency, this is also probably my first time ever playing a tennis future without it being a major favorite...

dont you get tired of being poor
