This summer there was a tennis match between Nikolay Davydenko ranked No. 4 in the world and No. 87 Martin Vassallo Arguello. Before the match was off there was a whisper that Davydenko would withdraw injured. However he still went off as 1.20 favourite which means basically for every £1 you bet you will get 20p profit if he wins. He won the first set and usually in a tennis match the price would get even shorter to probably around 1.10 or less, however his price drifted to 4.30 meaning for every pound you invested you would now get £3,30 profit. This was clearly a set up and it was no surprise when he lost the second set and retired injured in the third giving the match to Arguello.
Now I am surprised at how it could be so blantant, I presume simply one too many people opened their mouths on the inside and quite possible one or two people are now in a bodybag somewhere having been shot by the russian mafia.
The case of bad addiction is somebody I told take a look at this rigged game. Davyenko is ahead but will soon withdraw injured, what does the person do? Backs Davyenko as he is such a good price! I asked him if he was mad, he deposited every penny of his poker bankroll onto Davyenko. Then he had an absolute miracle, Betfair due to so many complaints cancelled all bets on the match and he was refunded the money! What a bad case of addiction! Anyone wanting more information on the betting scam can simply google a few words such as Davyenko, cheat, corruption. Here is one link which pretty much explains in a nutshell what happened...

People remember, if a bet is a losing bet it does not matter if you are getting a million to one! A losing betting slip for a £10 stake is worth the same as a losing betting slip for a £10000 stake......sweet f.a.! If something appears to be too good to be true it usually is!

I only backed him because there didnt look anything wrong with him. He was playing well and it went into the 3rd set and he wasnt showing any signs of injury so I backed him, I could have laid him for a nice profit too because his odds came right back in but I was greeeeeeedy. Wouldnt have made any difference anyway really.
