MATCH COMPLETION RULES BAIL OUT BOOKS BIG TIME TODAY ON TENNIS

[icedog]

I had Lopez +280 and Black +340 today and both win the first set but the opponents (Coria & Ferreira) both retire because of nagging injuries. These injuries were why both matches were hit hard with overnight steam so the books new rule on completion is combating this type of steam on injuries. Frustrating for me but I must say very shrewd by the books using this rule now.

still a lot of books not using this rule. I was on both of those and got paid.

This rule did bail me out on Gonzalez so it's not all bad.

i was on Coria and i lost. The book i was with graded it a loss.
Not all books have them retirement rule i assume.
i'm not arguing with the loss, just wanted to clarify, it was a very small wager.

 

[GreenDoberman]

oops didn't read the previous post, the book i was with accepted the wager and i lost.
no problems here, guess i should have bet at a different book, lol.

these new tennis rules cost me 2 winners today because both of my plays were winners but since the other platers retired in there matches it was considered no action

are there any books out there left that take tennis and consider retired/disqualified player as winners ?

 

[rent50]

bet365 grades the wager if one set is completed.
In other words, if a player retires during the first set, there is no action, if a player retires after the first set is completed, he is graded a loss.

Coria and Ferreria did not have nagging injurys, just jet lag. I dont think you will see books change just because a few others do. Usually Mexicans arent quitters but Coria and Gonzalez are exceptions, they were going to lose anyway.

 

[GreenDoberman]

rail,
Coria is Argentinian and Gonzalez is Chilean, neither is Mexican.

doberman,

I meant latin not mexican, kobes wife is mexican and she tries to call herself latina. To me anyone who speaks spanish is a mexican.

i need more,

I tried that but to many stalkers around here.

 

[GreenDoberman]

no rail,
anyone who speaks spanish is latino/a, as in latin america.
unless they are from spain, then they are of course spanish.
mexicans are latino/a as well

 

[areeff]

kobe's wife is just ghetto trash

New Tennis rules-

I think that the books who are changing their rules are just to lazy to follow tennis and know who is "damaged" goods. What next..a Stevie Francis or Jimmy Edmonds rule or maybe a rule saying Iverson has to play 40 minutes for Sixer bets to be official?
And are golf matchups next? Many of the big names drop out after a bad round to keep from hurting the stats.
Matchups have ALWAYS been based on first serve and if books are choosing to change them it is because the players are beating the books.

Congratulations to DSI, 5 Dimes, Carib, and you can add ABC to the list of books that are not afraid of taking a tennis bet.

Good Luck to All
