To watch Mark Davies speaking French:

1. Internet Explorer &#8212-no FireFox.
2. Latest Flash.
3. Go to M6 Replay.
4. Select &#8220-magazines&#8221-.
5. Scroll on the right to go to &#8220-Enquete Exclusive&#8221-.
6. Select Sunday, May 1, 2008 &#8212- Paris sportifs: Quand la Mafia s&#8217-en mele&#8230-
7. Windows Media.
8. 9:00 into, they talk about Davydenko.
9. 11:00 into, they show the BetFair HQ.
10. Mark Davies is introduced as &#8220-the #2&#8243-. And, later on, they mis-translate &#8220-Managing Director&#8221- into &#8220-Directeur General&#8221-, which means &#8220-CEO&#8221- in French. Let&#8217-s hope David Yu won&#8217-t watch that tape.
11. His French is not superb&#8230- but quite close to.
12. Explains that, in the Davydenko match, it was the bets that lead the game &#8212-not the other way around. So, BetFair voided all bets.
13. I am realizing that the phrase &#8220-the prices of the bets&#8221- (&#8221-les prix des paris&#8220-) is not usable. Better to talk about probabilities to the public.
14. The rest of that news report is devoted to demonstrating, thru innuendos, rumors, unfounded pseudo facts, and mis-reported true facts, that the Mafia is in control of all world sports &#8212-thru world-wide betting.
15. At the very end, though, one official (from the tennis federation, the ATP, if my memory is correct) says that they cooperate with some betting operators to stop corruption.
