I was fighting this idea of mine for some time - opening a thread for heavy favs in tennis. I know all the pro's and con's for betting the favs in tennis, and I am aware that betting heavy chalk in tennis is doomed. Anyway, I'll take a ride. This is in experimental phase and I'll put small amount on risk. There won't be picks every day, maybe one or two weekly but somehow I think I'll manage to profit of this. For beginning I'll put one unit (!) and accumulate the stake in further pick(s).
I do not encourage/recommend anyone to tail it, just to discuss and maybe we'll have some loughs.
Stay positive please and do not flame.

for this experiment the intention was to pick winners and the profit from the pick to invest for next one. yesterday i was in a hurry so i placed 2 picks - wawrinka (-210) 1,25u which i counted already won so i staked 1,85 on azarenka. azarenka won so i'm -0,5u down. experiment could end here on the first obstacle for that was my intention - to roll on 1 unit as long as i can. i decided not to end it. because i wasn't all in and i'll just take another unit and put it on another heavy chalk fav of my choice. but i'll tweak it a little bit. i'm introducing new rule -
