winbet, i 'm with you with most of what you are saying but bear in mind also that, books shortprice high odd underdogs much more than they do with favourites, and puerta will be no exception, so even if you shop around long and hard, at best you ll get a fair value puerta, not exceptional value. A 1.1 favourite winning means nothing to the book but a 7 means a hell of a lot in terms of risk management and the odds are shortened accordingly. Also bear in mind that most of the public dislikes betting such short odds favourites, as too low for their taste (it's not worth it, i d have to bet so much to get back so little, blah, blah if i had a cent for every time i ve heard that), and is always on the lookout for (what they think are) "value" underdogs. So, pinacle's 1.14 for the spanish wonder kid, for me, is not a negative expectation bet, and i would include it in a small parley of similar low odds. That said, probably the bluntest (as opposed to sharpest, lol) position to take in this much up is the 3-0 to nadal and i think that's were most players will bite (i ll take him at 3-0 at a better price, yeah right), because even the best players can and do lose the odd set.
