    Lu - Starace handicap
    The handicap for this match seems to be way out.

    Lu is at 1.58 to win the match and Lu (-2 games) is at 2.1.

    I mean two game make a difference less than 10% of the time and to have such difference can mean two things:

    1)the handicap line has +EV

    2) the match is rigged and starace is going to win an easy set so that he will cover the spread

    What do u think?

          Friggin 75 cent rise since I took Starace a little over an hour ago. Gotta love the ATP.

              I actually just took them both at 2-1 now as I'm thinking this may be a reverse fix in action in order to drive up the odds.

                Either LU is being hammered late or something is up.

                  No cameras on this match and the winner plays Tursonov who fixed his match yesterday. Who would you rather have Tursonov face? Lu or Mr Potato Head? Just my opinion though.

                    Starace wins this game, IMHO.

                        Damn, what a "Pump and Dump" on this line. Pinny went up to -400 and dropped big time quick to -285.

                            my guess is:

                            lu gets the win but starace covers the spread of -2 games

                                  another possibility:

                                  lu wins the first set and starace retires and the handicap bet gets voided.

                                    Either way looks like I just flushed money down the toilet on this one.

                                      Have faith Mikail. One of the most popular fixes out there is to have one player win the first set so the odds jump sharply on the other player to win the next 2 so people can dump their cash on him/her at inflated odds. Hard to say what's going to happen here until the very end.

                                        That would be nice. I guess I'll stick it out. Expect the worst and hope for the best.

                                            there won't be any reverse fixes.

                                            Lu to win is 1.01 now. rofl

                                                  Here is the explanation for the high odds on the handicap:

                                                  The mafia guy was very dumb and forgot to pound the handicap line.

                                                    Exactly. And Shari was very dumb and didn't take it in an attempt to cover her original Starace bet.
