You have to give credit where credit is due, you called it earlier on that Bet 365 might cover this.

3 good things about this: 1. I get a decent sleep 2. We don't need to wait and wait for the result and 3. Get a small but useful insight into how she is playing.

Are you of the opinion that BET365 is on 'British Summer Time'. I'm not yet, at least my phone isn't and that really confused me this morning.

I think so, as the first match last week started at 2a.m whereas this week they are starting at 3a.m.

Mmmm Ta.

My hopes have faded to nearly a zero chance that Bet 365 are going to cover this match live. They covered the first match live but didn't the second, and they don't have Laura on their list of live in play matches.:(
Some miracle might happen but I don't see it.

Well, I'm sort of relieved as I overslept and when I couldn't find the match still playing I thought that meant it had been over quickly and she'd lost. (She was still on their list at about 5am.)

They are now covering a doubles match at Wenshan. So, very strange.

When I looked at 6a.m they still had odds for her match, but there was no sign that they would be doing in any live betting. If this doubles match starts on time that will provide clear evidence that Laura's match was over very quickly.

Well, it ain't started yet, so I am going to remain mildly optimistic

philwrig · Hall of fame

It just started so my best guess was that Laura's match was straight sets, fingers crossed in Laura's favour but I'm not confident.

So strange they didn't cover hers but are are now covering a doubles. Maybe just down to staff/shortage/arrangements. I never understand where they get the data from anyway. Someone courtside or from the umpire's 'gizmo' ?
