Another fixed tennis match - betfairs integrity :|

[Kaiser888]

Wasn't sure where to post this to be honest, but another fixed match which followed a very similar pattern to the well publiscised Davydenko Vs Arguello match last year - which was alledged to be fixed and betfair voided - took place last night. Hernandez Vs Brzezicki in the US Mens Clay Court Championships In Houston, Texas. Starting prices were roughly evens the pair. At 5-2 up in the first set Brzezicki was still at around evens despite his lead A set and 2-0 up in the second Brzezicki was 3.0 --- he started off at evens and showed no obvious signs of injury. A set and *2-1 down Hernandez was backed at 1.2...... Hernandez went on to take control of the set but before even levelling the match he was backed at 1.01 - before the second set was even over........... truelly inexplicable....... and making it more obvious that people knew he was going to win. Hernandez went on to take the victory 3-6 6-3 6-2. Betfair took about 2 minutes to settle the market - despite the hugely suspicisious betting patterns - and will not void. As well as exposing the lack of integrity in tennis it also exposes betfair, once again, as massive hypocrites - as purely concerned with profit over principles despite the public image they promote. Tennis is a hugely profitable sport for them commission wise, and the voiding of 'minor' matches such as this would perhaps cause them to have to withdraw betting on such markets and thus result in a significant decrease in commission payments. Furthermore, after the publicity of last year I think it is very possible that the ATP have been in contact with betfair and made their presence felt. This match involved two 'nobody's' and live pictures wern't available in the UK......... despite the betting patterns being just as suspicious as the voided Davydenko vs Vassallo match in Sopot last year, betfair have not even seen it fit to hold payouts and investigate the match. Betfair have a 15 man integrity team whose job is to identify and investigate suspicious betting patterns :lol A look on the betfair tennis forum is worth it for anyone interested. Another disgraceful day for tennis, and another example of betfair's utter hypocrisy and complete lack of integrity.
