I wanted to bet on Jaziri, looks like at least one set for him, mostly founded on forums tips rooting for him, like him to take a set, over 21.5

but when looking at odds, I see quite huge drops on Istomin on all areas=> odds for under 21.5 slashed from nearly even to -155, AH-3.5 also down on Istomin

wtf is happening there ? Jaziri will get crushed ?

I read a theory about him, lossing this one on purpose. Sela is waiting for the winner of this match in next round. Jaziri's tennis federation demanded him not to step on the court against Israeli player, back in 2013, when he was supposed to play against Weintraub in some challenger. So he forefit that match. He probably doesn't want to get caught in similar situation here...

Wtf?? Why?

You mean why they didn't allow him to play against Israeli? Probably because all of that "muslim vs jews" thing going on...

Looks like he's retired after winning the 1st set...ridiculous!

Yikes......if there is any truth to this, then pretty ridiculous loss.
