I've got 5k for a Federer/Nadal final with both Federer and Nadal to win in 4 sets or less. I get a 45k return. This could be the stupidest/ballsy thing I've ever done. But hey, bet big win big (suppose it works both ways :lol:

). Wish me luck, all my friends who don't even like tennis are actually coming over to watch both matches with me.

But...

with both Federer and Nadal to win in 4 sets or less.

You know they can't both win, right?

why cant they both win?

As I read it he put a bet on both of them winning the final in 4 or less

by **Chederer** » Fri, 03 Jun 2011 15:12

seems as murray has no problem breaking nadal's serve...he just cant hold his own serve...cmon andy just stay calm and take the ball early when nadal hits a crosscourt shot....dont let it pull you off the court...take it on the rise and stay inside the court

Oh I thought he was talking about the semis today

He probably was. Would've been easy money for the bookmaker else.

man after watching this match for a while...its tough for a player against nadal when his backhand is coming at you 50mph and then a forehand at 90mph...i can see how players get in front of nadals backhand

by **Saarbrigga** » Fri, 03 Jun 2011 15:35

Ok...i guess Nadal is in the final right now, he never lost a match leading 2-0.

I hope Federer - Djokovic will become more than 3 sets.

do you think fed has an answer for the djoker?

by **Bretton JamesBANNED** » Fri, 03 Jun 2011 16:17

Sorry, I've written it totally wrong, but yeah Coolhand you got it! I put Federer and Nadal to reach the final by winning both their matches in the SF's against Djokovic and Murray respectively in 4 sets or less. So it's essentially what the bookmakers call an accumulator and I've put 5k down for that bet to come through. I'm actually shitting myself but so excited that Nadal is taking this home with him... now if only Federer can play his 2005 form

you better hope Nole is rusty

I better hope for several things to swing in my favour or I'm going to be 5k poorer :lol:
