apparently not, if he got the call

[tealish]

Great call, diamond. Thanks again

[Josu]

If I had bet my house on the draw like the ref did I would have made that call as well. Wonder how many champagne bottles he has cracked open this night?

[yisman]

some people definitely had knowledge.

The question is whether the refs were really involved too, or was it just managers instructing teams?

Shady stuff.

[SRBI]

F*ckin shady pastalians and their mafia fixed games, this is something else man let me tell you

[white7299]

LOL I won $4.55 today Better than losing $450 and I will take it

[Sportslover]

I'm predicting that Udinese vs Chievo will be a draw in midweek and that next weekend Chievo vs Parma will be a draw. Will be interesting to see the odds on these games.

Surprised that nobody mentioned Bari vs Parma as a draw in the round of fixtures just played as this was a classic case of a match that was perfect for match fixing.

[theplagy]

I've seen worse in this Mafia League.

Shameless, lol. And the ref didn't even hesitate

[Domer]

This is hilarious. Good find.

[AnotherLoan]

This should be a huge story. Unreal.

[Masu485]

this is the best way to make money at this, and ever since i've started wagering, i've always dreamed of fixes because you know you have a 99.9% winner.

there were many books and exchanges that still offered the draw line, so i take it many people on here made thousands? i wish i could have been in on it too (only risked pts). we should all check it out from now on becasue this surelywon't be the last fix in the Serie A. we need to GET ON THE NEXT ONE!

[aceking]

serie A is fixed since day 1 .

Nope, because hardly any actually offered the draw line when diamond alerted us to this.

The only place I could bet it was at the SBR Book, due to them not taking down the line, and that has a 500 point limit anyway.

Every standard book people talk about here (Pinnacle, 5 Dimes, Bodog, Bookmaker, BetPhoenix, etc.) did not offer a draw line, and in most cases, they simply took the game off the board entirely. Pinnacle was one of the few that kept it up, and what they offered was just a PK line, no three-way, so no one would win anything off of that if it finished in a draw.

In fact, in the two threads on this, I believe only three people mentioned that they were able to get in an actual bet, and one was at -110 at a $300 limit.

What websites are people finding information like this out? Are there websites with Mafia type betting info?

When the odds for the draw in a 3 way betting are much less than either side winning the game. If 50% or more of the bets are on the draw something is fishy.

yeah, i recall most of the big books took the line down, and i checked at pinny also (tried to use the pull down menu to get the +1/4 haha), but i do remember many here seeing the line on different sports exchanges. and i remember seeing it at bet365 (of course at a -125, but i would pay that for an almost sure thing). i also remember a thread title of someone winning 20k. diamond also i'm sure made a bit.

[theplagy]

Most Asian Sites had them tho , Sbobet, ibcbet, mansion etc. but at a very low odds as well

yeah, bet365 had it

from 3 AM on Sunday:

Two other exchanges I checked also have the draw favored.


Also Bet365, William Hill, Tipico, etc.

Looks like diamond hit on a major market inefficiency.

none of these are major books in the US of course (I don't know if any of them can even be used by Americans), and few SBR members use them.

i also remember a thread title of someone winning 20k.

The draw odds at all books were fairly normal (+200 to +230) until Tuesday evening when they dropped sharply to around +150 on Betfair over 15-20 mins. Most of the Euro books suspended betting at that time but some (e.g. Betsson, BetPhoenix, Unibet) dropped their odds into a similar range). The odds continued to drop until Saturday when they reached -114 at Betfair and any book that was offering was in the -130 region or a lot worse in some cases.
