    At One Set Action Books - Take the Under?
    At books that action bets after one set is complete is it profitable to just take the under for everything and make bank on retirements? Assuming O/u lines are 50-50 and that retirements occur a large majority of the time on the under why doesn't this work... Are those assumptions to big? Has anyone looked into this?

    I will only assume here that when they say the bet is valid after one set is complete they are usually talking about straight up wins, overs/unders and handicaps are logically void in a match that has not gone all the way, at least that is what my logic is dictating to me

    and trust me, there are dozens of games every day maybe hundreds with wta and only 2-3 are retirements max

    to be able to predict which games those will be on a constant basis is very ambitious IMO

      Oh! I didn't know 1 set action was only for ML. Let me check my 5Dimes account to see how they do it, I was thinking about this after there was a retirement in a match where I had the over.

      As for the second thing you said, I am not proposing picking the matches. I am proposing blindly playing the under because that 2-3 per day would skew the tendency to the under... Of course this could be built into the odds.

      I will report back about 5dimes, if the O/u is no action for a retirement then this is all moot anyway.

        Indeed it was canceled. Never-mind.
