Azarenka v McHale – a Fix?

Posted on 15 April 2010 by admin

As you know corruption is everywhere and online betting is not an exception. One such example was observed yesterday in tennis match between Victoria Azarenka and Christina McHale.

Some tennis matches may seem strange and fixed for example when favorite player takes a lead and are in winning position and then suddenly retires. But who knows maybe they really injured themselves during the game as odds were fine?

Victoria AzarenkaBut yesterdays case was even more obvious. The world number 9 Victoria Azarenaka played against the world number 192 Christina McHale. At first before the match odds were 1.10 for Victoria Azarenka at Betfair then they suddenly started to rise even when the match started. There wasn’t any sign that Victoria will lose, she clearly outplayed Christina. But her odds kept rising even after some breaks. Someone was putting huge lays.

Azarenka won first set 6:2 but odds moved from 1.10 to 2.5+ during the first set. There was Audio cometary available but commentators told nothing about injuries even they clearly said that McHale is getting outplayed by Azarenka.

Second set started and again Azarenka was break up. Then McHale broke back. And again Azarenka broke opponents game. After that there were some reports of Azarenka limping. Then McHale broke back and Victoria Azarenka retired.

That was clearly obvious that somebody already knew the result before the match.

Most of regular bookies voided this game, but Betfair and Betdaq settled the winnings.

Here is price movement for Christina McHale(Her odds drop without any reason) and score overall from Betfair:
