    What book do you use for Tennis?
    I seem to notice that alot of people around here bet on tennis. I was wondering where you bet at? I play both at Bodog and 5Dimes but there lines aren't the best and I'm looking for a 3rd book that I can depend on for payouts as well. Always nice to have a few books to find best odds.

    5dimes 95% of time offers best lines

    Greek is usually a few cents lower
    Bookmaker is equal to greek
    Wsex lines are weak

    and that about covers it

      I guess I'll stick with 5Dimes. Just got a $400 payout for only $34 **. Isn't bad considering other places are out of control with ** fees. I'll stick some $$$ I guess in Thegreek for Wimbledon and sue both them and get rid of Bodog. Is BetRoyal any good for tennis? I've heard half good things and half bad on them.

      As for WSEX, you're right there odds do suck.

            Seriously, use an odds comparison service, and check who has the best lines.

              Since Pinnacle closed it's doors to the U.S. customers I haven't found a book that offers anything worth while playing at. The best place I happen to find in regards to where I can actually still play is 5Dimes though, however the vig there is still way too steep for me actually feel it's profitable anymore IMO.

                I'd argue what vig an individual book offers is meaningless, across the market as a whole you should be betting into no more than a 102% book if you're betting $500 or less.

                  When betting Tennis, you pretty much have too shop around.

                  I'm currently using 5 Books for Tennis.

                      5 Dimes is the best choice overall

                        I use bet365 for tennis. You can get better tennis lines at betfair, if you like to bet "live in play".

                          I would like In-Play with those books but unfortunately I'm in US.

                              Betfair is the one book I really wish I could have access to for tennis, with Pinnacle obviously right behind...

                                I loved Bet365 when I first started getting into betting tennis. I heard PaddyPower and Bluesq were tight, but unfortunately no US people allowed. The thing I like about 5Dimes is they have where you can bet on handicaps of the match. Hit some nice money off of them.

                                  You and me both. Betfair is top notch for tennis. Especially the way you can your guy can win 1st set and then you lay off and make a profit. Oh well, maybe within the next 10 years we can use it. LOL
