    Let's talk about TENNIS shall we

    every bettor knows by now that TENNIS is very unpredictable mainly because of "match fixing" or players Unmotivated to win.... whatever the reason.... there's always one match that will mindfcuk you .... Im I right?
    with the pandemic going on , keeping in mind that sports betting in general will be difficult this year,
    whats your new strategy to keep winning at Tennis ?

    Well, where do you guys see the odd bet amounts (huge money on a player)?


    Betfair?


    Shouldnt you start by looking at where the money is and if it is average amount bet?

    I follow Nigel Seely tennis picks. He won 100 units last year. He is 1-1 this year for a tiny profit (won 5 pts and lost 4 pt play)

    but i thought betfair was an exchange?


    ive seen posters say about huge money at betfair, i dont understand how it works



    if 4 million is matched, then there are equal bets

    if 4 million isnt matched, then there isnt a bet


    ??


    what am i missing, clearly something obvious

    BF has both exchange AND sportsbook! but nowadays you won't see heavy betting there, why? because of commission!

    This is a silly thread. This doesn’t happen enough to give it a second thought. The consequences a player will face if caught are way too high. Also, the limits aren’t high enough in almost every book to make this worthwhile at all. Huge money coming in on a Rando match is too big of a red flag.


    Ride the Sinner train this year and you’ll come out on top.

    Deminaur 2-0 -150 tonight and Korda ml +120 tomorrow look good to me

    are you "new" to Tennis ?

    players are "caught" numerous times, for numerous reasons, some get banned, this year for e.g. Dayana Yastremska is provisionally suspended for doping! There are numerous cases where tennis fans have blacklisted players that are not playing to win (unmotivated).

    But i guess for you this is a silly thread so why even comment ?

    I have more tennis knowledge in my left pinky toe than you pal. TTwarrior hits the wall everyday trying to get to my level. In all seriousness, the Davydenko incident 10+ years ago is the only real example of a household name player fixing a match. Shocker that it was a Russian player. KGB must have big limits. I mainly bet atp 500 events or higher. I’ll dabble once it reaches the semis of atp 250s. These top players are not throwing these matches to make some side money that could end their career if caught in these big tournies.

    You seem like a big conspiracy guy. The closest you’ll come to finding a match fix is a guy like Kyrgios or Fognini showing up to a tourney with no points to defend and they’ll just tank to get back to the hotel and rest up for the following tournament that has points they need to defend.

    Then share some of that knowledge with us... for instance how you come up with the idea that Deminaur 2-0 -150 is a good bet?

    I watched a little of his match vs Goffin last night and was impressed with what I saw. He is much more consistent than Bubllik and I think taking him in straights over the heavy juice is the right play. I’m not otters. I can’t play juice that high. Deminaur is going to be a stud. I’d normally take the under in this situation but Bublliks serve it on could easily lead to one tight set to blow it. I also read he may have tweaked an injury in the Chardy match.

    Deminaur already up a break 2-0 lol. Take a lap pal

    Haven't seen the current Oz Open women's Futures but how do you not take Sabalenka if she's at least +1000 or better. Won 3rd straight tournament, only dropped 1 set, 16 match winning streak, while seemingly fixing her shaky serve (13 Aces, 2 DFs last 2 matches). I know she's never done shit in majors, but with women I would always bet on a first time winner & it's just a matter of time before she wins one based on current form.

    I've been watching Delray. I've seen all the matches with Korda and Hurkacz. Korda is in great form at the moment and just comparing the two, I'm leaning Korda or the over. Hurkacz seems to be struggling on his volley, with some unforced errors mixed in which I expect keeps Korda in it and gives him a fair shot to win outright.

    I was thinking of going with Thiem for the Australian, but after some preliminary research, I am not liking what I am seeing...

    I have a lot of faith in the guy, but I would prefer him having his coach with him, and I would prefer a girlfriend like Mirka...instead of dropping Mladenovic for a Circus Star....

    This Covid thing going to provide for some angles here for sure...Just check out this short article about his (and Rafa's) coach situation and you can start to imagine all the possibilities here...

    Nole will win the Aussie. Don’t overthink it.

    Sinner and Kyrgios are my value plays.

    Why doesn't he just retire then? I suspect the reason is he feels incomplete without that Olympic singles gold. He has nothing else to play for. As long as Nole, Rafa, Thiem are healthy, he's not beating those guys in a GS. So why keep playing? Go be a Dad, something much more important than sport.
