Montreal Murray
Posted by Peter Webb in Tennis on August 16th, 2009
An interesting match. Del Potro sneaked the first, Murray the second, both on tie breaks, and then Murray trounced a tired looking Del Petro in the last. At potentially 1-1 in a three set match a tie break can bring some really significant opportunties and that was proved once again today. Murray traded around the 3′s at worse but after leveling the match his price crashed back into the starting price of 1.50. A quick and brutal swing. For a small punt you would have clearly defined upside and if Murray lost, the match was lost as well. A fairly simple risk reward, mechanism.
One interesting thing about this match was the wild swings in odds, this says a lot for how it was specifically traded. You will also notice on the graph the very clearly defined odds models being used in the market. In all a very interesting tournament and final.

Roddick vs Del Potro

Roddick or Del Potro? No idea to be honest, both could easily win. But the interesting thing about this match is that if it’s a tight one you will get a massive swing in the final set. I’m up early in the morning so I can’t trade it, but if you are trading it this match has some potential.
