let it ride

really?? Why?? Your thoughts appreciated! I'm a noob at backing a player to win outright and then trying to hedge. NOvak is the second seed and hasn't lost all year - will more than likely win this match.
I was hoping that Del Potro came up against the top seeds later in the tournament.

Took these earlier.

Fognini @ $1.60
Tsonga @ $1.70
Gasquet @ $1.60
Rodionova +5.5 @ $1.85

Adding

Joker -2.5 sets @ $1.95

 

[The_Big_Ship]

Just wanting some advice.
Had backed Del Potro to win the french prior to the draw @ $41.
He's up against Novak in about an hour.
I would like to hedge, just not sure what the best option is?

Thinking of backing NOvak to win 3-0 sets betting @ $1.90 or
Novak -6.5 games handicap?
Any other suggestions?

Could bet live in play for NOvak to hold serve (and keep rolling over my winnings??)

Thoughts would be appreciated!!

But what if Novak wins in 4 or 5, or doesn't cover the handicap? You'd have just lost even more money. Even if Del Potro wins tonight, that's no guarantee he'll make the final.

Impossible to try and hedge at this stage, I'd just wait and hope he makes the final, then think about it.

nope!

Have just let it ride for now. Perhaps if he wins the 3rd set I'll back Novak to win

 

[Sasquatch]

Gajdosova @ $3.10
Fish @ $2.42
Kubot @ $1.75

And here I was thinking Verdasco was half decent. For a 'World Number 16' he is a f*cking truck, absolutely pathetic player.

Its hard to believe you are old enough to gamble DT

expected result amongt the sharps.

verdasco was awful in rounds 1 & 2, no way he justified such favouritism for round 3 against a guy whose serve can be almost impossible to break at times.

Zvonnareva has such a fragile brain. Can't believe I anchored her in all my multis.
