Find myself having a disagreement with the price action in Barty / Sabalenka. Sure, you might just argue Saba was too short to begin match, but the market aggressively went after Barty (and fair play they got it right early) as they saw that variety is perhaps the best way to disarm the force of nature on the other side of the net. But Barty has said on changeovers in previous matches that she has a sore arm, and today, there is tape on that arm. Lenka is up and down, she has quiet periods, but they almost always precede even more aggression. Pleased to lay Barty when she's ahead here, it's overdone, just my opinion.. opinions should come with health warnings.

Bizarre price really, not sure I'm going to be able to close this trade before 1.00. Very little suggestion of any capitulation.

Nice when a play ends in a result. Biggest trade for a while for me. Apologies for the back patting..but ok I think if you post the idea as you execute or before. :mrgreen:

Sabalenka great to trade - think she is a little overrated by the market in general as well.

Thanks for those Trading96

My BOM bot paid out but sadly missed the others - sure looks to have been a great day, would of especially been on the Cib match :)
Reading through the thread and wondered what BOM stands for :-) another acronym to learn. Probably a really stupid question ... thanks.

It's my shorthand for 'Bank of Murray'

He's a well known poor starter so trading him is usually as easy as going to a cash machine

Apologies as I know this has been covered before but would anyone mind explaining the situation if a player retires. I just had a situation when Del Potro retired right at the end of the set as he walked back to the chair.. this seems pretty cryptic to me?

Retirement after first set: Player/team progressing to next round is settled as the winner. However, the player's opponent is no longer a losing selection - you will get your stakes back. Bets where outcome was known will be settled as winners. While selections that no longer could have been winners will be settled as losers.

Thanks for your help

Specifically to Del Potro (without having seen the match), where he is on the court as he retires. is irrelvant, If the final ball of the first set has been played, the first set is over.

You're aware that those are the rules for the sportsbook, right? Basically everyone posting on here use the exchange almost exclusively. Point in case, I never use the sportsbook, so I was was unaware that the rule is like the above for the sportsbook, and it surprises me a lot that it's the case. That aside, the wording seems quite clear to me. What is your specific query that you cannot tell from the rule?

I am using the exchange so apologies for posting the sportbook rules. I'm guessing that unless it's before end of first set any matched bets are lost. I had wondered if any stakes matched after the final ball of the first set had been played would be void as the player was unfit to continue and the umpire called match suspended just as some lay bets were matched but before BF suspended the market.. I guess it's just one to put down to experience. I should have been a lot quicker.

I'm assuming that unless it's during the first set ( where all bets/stakes) are voided any bets that are matched are valid until BF suspends the market.

Anyway thanks for replying
