    Tennis favorites in parlay?

    Any value in putting the -500 tennis favorites in a parlay. It's pretty rare that one of these lose. Can usually get even money with 4 plays in the parlay.

    Don't do it, I learned my lesson at the beginning. Mid-Season sure. But at this point you are best to put your money on the dogs.

    best way to make money in tennis is to never play parlays, only single picks

    how many people put federer (vs stakohvsky) nadal (vs darcis) in a parlay ?

    Your best way is to rollover money with Nadal and Djokovic as they advance through tourneys

    They rarely lose

    What you guys think of del Boner vs. D young? I have made big money betting against Donald young adn also Oliver Rouchus. I know the boner is more safe on clay.

    Also look at the drawsheet and see who is seeded and who is Q, wildcard etc. The seeded players are more likely to win their matches ( at leastbefore it begins).

    1.2's in tennis lose, particularly in early season smaller tournaments. You have to use your brain. Look at Jankovic as 1.28 favourite, which is -400ish in American.... she came off a tournament slog reaching the semi finals and losing to Azarenka in a close 3 sets. She had somany battles yet punters were dumnb enough to take her againt a talented Makarova @1.3 and she dropped all the way down to 1.22 almost..... she lost easily, straight sets.

    Tanked it.

    If you wanna parlay them, which I would suggest not, do your research on whether they are fresh, at the very least!

    Here are some potential big favourite upsets in the women's game for tomorrow IMO. These odds are wrong and there is no way they should be such firm favourites.

    Keys should not be 1.3 against her opponent. Those odds are a kneejerk to beating Halep, who just tanked from the off and wanted to get some practise in.

    Makarova should not be 1.3 to beat Suarez Navarro, another kneejerk to a player beating another player who wasn't fit to play or fatiging.

    Stosur should not be 1.2 agaisnt anybody in Australia, it's actually a disadvantage she plays there as her record there is shite and she gets anxious. Plus the girl she is playing is a dangerous ballstriker that owns real utter venom on her shots.

    If you parlayed these 3 I have mentioned, I would suggest the probability in my eyes of you losing the parlay would be about 65%. You wanna put a good wager on that? Go for it. lol

    I have been looking at the -450 to -800. So far they are winning at 93%. I've been following for a little while and have done well with 3 player parlays betting 200 to win back 120-150. Have yet to book a loser and now that I've said that I may have to stop! Haha.

    No. Struff has issues closing matches out, you'll get Struff at 4.00 minimum at the start of 3rd. So sorry, didn't realise Stuff was so hot atm. He's serving amazingly.

    Cilic woke up, pumped the fist when he broke him, definitely not goofing off no matter how this ends.

    Dude.

    He's 4.00 struff. whcih is +500 American? GET OUT OF THIS NOW! HEDGE! Stuff is serving first, trust me I have played tennis to a good level, my ex hitting partner is a performance coach in Miami for the top 100 junior itf women. Stuff is serving first, that means he's more relaxed and more likely to have a free swing and get some joy on Cilic's service games. Cilic isn't an amazing matchplayer, especially against player's he feels pressured to beat. His forehand can crumble under pressure. At 4-3 or 5-4, he could easily net and spray forehands and your money is goners. Hedge now!
