Davydenko cleared in betting investigation

Tennis Betting Lines

09/12/2008 - London, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Russian tennis star Nikolay Davydenko has been cleared by the ATP following a yearlong investigation into suspicious betting patterns on a match he lost to a much lower-ranked opponent in Poland last year.

The ATP said it found no evidence of any wrongdoing by Davydenko or anyone else involved in a match between the Russian and Argentina's Martin Vassallo Arguello in Sopot on August 2 of last year.

"The ATP has now exhausted all avenues of inquiry open to it and the investigation is now concluded," the governing body of men's tennis said in a statement.

A fifth-ranked Davydenko, citing a foot injury, retired from that match against the 87th-ranked Vassallo Arguello in the third set.

An on-line gambling site, Betfair, received about $7 million in wagers on the match, and most of the money was coming in on Vassallo Arguello, even after Davydenko won the first set. The amount of wagers was about 10 times higher than it would typically be for such a match.

The ATP has said that lifetime bans will be levied on players found guilty of match fixing on the tour.

MySportsbook.com week 1 NFL lines


Now that the 2008 NFL schedule is finally out, it is only matter-of-course for lines on “Week 1” to follow.  Of course MySportsbook.com is the first to churn out odds for the NFL’s inaugural week for the upcoming season.   Expect a lot of fireworks the first Thursday night of the season as the defending champion Indianapolis Colts face off against the surprise of the 2008 season, the New Orleans Saints.  These teams were ranked #1 and #3 in the NFL respectively a season ago so a high scoring affair could be in order.  As of now, the Colts will be giving 6 points to the Saints; keep in mind the Saints were one of the better road teams last season going 6-3 SU and 7-2 ATS.  The first Monday night of the season will again provide a “double feature”. Coming off a disappointing season, the Cincinnati Bengals will look to get back to playoffs and improve their public image as they take on the AFC North favorite Baltimore Ravens.  The second game features a couple of teams that haven’t had too much success recently but each could make some noise if the NFC is as weak as it was last year as the San Francisco 49ers host the Arizona Cardinals. The most interesting game of the opening week will feature the NFC champion Bears as they hit the road to take on the NFL’s top team during last year’s regular season, the San Diego Chargers.

MySportsbook.com Week 1 odds:

Saints +6 @ Colts -6

Falcons @ Vikings (pick ‘em)

Panthers @ Rams (pick ‘em)
