Betfair player says account was suspended amidst tennis investigation
A high-stakes BetFair (SBR rating A) punter tells Sportsbook Review that his account has been locked since March 28th, 2011. The Betfair player had a sum of €50,000 risked on an ATP tennis match—Michael Llodra vs Marcel Granollers—which was a normal stake for the trader. Marcel Granollers went into the match in good form and was a slight underdog at +138. After the conclusion of the match, the player states that he received a letter from Betfair indicating that the outcome of the match was being investigated. The player states that he wrote Betfair multiple times per week asking for an update on the status of the investigation. When SBR followed up with Betfair for comment, Betfair advised SBR that they could not discuss specifics of player accounts. SBR is asking the player to provide a complete overview of his position on the match. SBR will update this thread as more information becomes available.
