i really dont bet much on tennis becuase i dont know much about the sport. usually i bet the other side when i see a big name player as a small fav or dog. like yesterday tsonga was a dog to almagro so i took almagro and lost. i assume almagro was the fav because the surface?
-240 seems like a low number to lay on a top 5 player for his 1st match in the tourny.

Yeah, surfaces have alot to do with the line on particular matches, particularly matches played on clay. Almagro actually played Tsonga in the aussie open and Tsonga was -700. (hardcourt)
I had Tsonga last night, but I do think Almagro will do fairly win in the upcoming tournaments, i'd look for him to be a good future price at 100-1 or so for future big clay tournaments. He is in much better shape..
This Murray matchup is very intriguing. Murray has done very poorly since the aussie open, and Kohlschriebber had a solid clay season last year.
Murray should be motivated to get a win here, and he still is the (much) better player, even on clay, but it's a no play for me.
