Oudin Keeping Them on Their Toes
September 14, 2009
It goes without saying that the online gambling world is consistently looking for the next big thing to bet on. If something exciting is going on in the sports arena, they are going to offer bets on what ever the event might be. Every now and then there comes along a player or a team that makes it tough to set the odds. They might be low ranked, but then come in and shake things up, leaving the online gambling sites wondering where exactly to place them.
This is evident in the case of tennis star Melanie Oudin. Oudin is a 17-year-old tennis ace who only betrays her age when speaking. She is currently playing in the US Open and the online gambling sites don't know how to match her with a bet. For someone of her age and past experience, she should be ranking much lower than she is.
However, Oudin has had four straight wins on the court against several highly ranked Russian stars. She has quickly shown her prowess on the court and has run rings around the other tennis professionals. Each time she plays the online gambling sites feel as though they need to change their rankings of her as she is consistently performing better than they thought that she would.
Online gambling sites that thought that they had her pegged at a lower level have quickly readjusted their scores, and are offering different odds for the chance of her winning. Originally, her odds were quite low, and the online gambling sites felt that she had a minimal chance of winning. However, that has definitely changed.
