Why Bet On Tennis ?

We believe that Tennis is the best sport for making money.

Firstly there are only two outcomes. This may sound obvious, but it should not be underestimated. The draw in sports like Football can be a major obstacle to long term profits

Secondly, most bookmakers concentrate on sports with a high `margin` or profit like Horse racing. The average margin is around 25% on a big horse race, but only around 5% on a Tennis match ! No wonder big bookmakers like Coral Eurobet have stopped taking a Tennis bet on nearly all Tennis matches apart from Grand Slams.

Thirdly, it is quite common for the odds compilers to make mistakes, due to the large amount of variables that have to be considered. Ask yourself this : How many male players can you name outside the top 20? Most people can only name a few, but all matches have to be considered, so the workload to study the statistics is just too great for the majority of bookmakers. The net result is that there is often a wide variance in odds from different bookmakers, ideal conditions for Punters!

We have found that the best tournaments for a Tennis Bet, to be the four Grand Slams - Australian Open, French Open, Wimbledon and the US Open. Of these the Australian Open is the most unpredictable,as it comes at the beginning of the season, and can produce a lot of surprising results. Nevertheless, we have still managed to produce a profit most years although it is usually less than the other three Grand Slams. The first two rounds of these tournaments are usually the most profitable and therefore we concentrate on the early rounds where there is usually a solid Tennis bet at good odds.
