    Nieminen vs Federer

    Can someone explain me the +2 odd for Federer? I know that this is Niemenins last game but is Federer really going to let him win so easily?

    It's an exhibition game so Federer could "diplomatically" lose.

    Massive drift on Federer odds for this match. Federer and Jarkko are good friends and after winning all 15 official matches, might be time for Roger to let Jarkko win in his last match in his home country.

    Despite that, Roger said that he'll play at good level because there aren't any ATP tournaments in Finland and he knows many people will also go to see him play and because of that he'll perform at good level.

    Not sure how are the rules of this match, but might be best of three sets with champions tie break on 3rd set. If this is the case, the best move might be to make a live bet on Federer to win 1st set, if he loses bet on him to win 2nd set, he should be priced as underdog in both sets and this match should have a champions tie break.

    Yeah it was definitely a showmatch

    They also played a doubles showmatch between Nieminen/Selänne - Federer/Forsberg
