Sign In If You're Staying After The Australian Open Ends

[EaglesPhan36]

I know we get a lot of drop-ins for the Slams. Anyone get hooked and staying with us here in the tennis forum after this weekend?



I'm starting a contest next week for SBR points. We've got two indoor tournaments in Europe and a clay courter in Chile starting on Monday. I cordially invite you to stay and lose your fukkin' mind betting tennis. Don't be a drop-in Slam weasel.

I'd like to but I don't think my heart can handle betting tennis on a consistent basis, haha. These last two weeks have easily aged me 30 years.

Is there somewhere online that you can watch matches for free? I've enjoyed ESPN3's coverage of the Aussie Open and being able to watch multiple matches at once.

I think I am going to give in next month and add the Tennis Channel to my TV package. Been considering it for a while. Think it will be the best and worst thing I ever did.

This will be my first year posting here in SBR for tennis wagering, I will be here for most tourney's in the future not just slams, the juice is a lot but over my 10years tennis has been the most consistant cash cow if you arent trying to get rich IMO I like it!

There is no question I would get that channel if they let us get it in Canada....CRtC control freaks.

Then again- I get all the majors and masters tourney's so I see a decent amount.

[zacharyj53]

I am going to, use to watch tennis all the time. Have missed out the last few years. As far as watching tennis, just google first row sports. Should get you some free viewing on the net.

[MUHerd37]

I'll be here. Also, be kinda happy when the "grand slam only" kids beat it.

[Sport_Fish]

Yeahbut, if I at least keep an eye on the other tournaments I feel like I have a lot more confidence when it comes to the slams.

Very good post. I dont know if I would have time to look over every contest this year on some of these smaller tourneys , I have kept really good records over the years of my wagers in tennis so I know which tourneys to avoid and which ones to increase my wagers. Wagering tennis is a year round activity for me until after the US Open, than its always just been a loser for me. I am usually pretty burnt out with tennis after the Open as well, season is just too long.

People should stay here and contribute something if they can, I can say without a doubt there is not a better contributor to any tennis forum anywhere than EaglesPhan. Eagles always has something interesting on stuff that most people on most forums rarely even look at like challengers and doubles. I just love the discussion, a great help when wagering on tennis. Having smart people like Eagles and Shari discussing tennis are great to have when looking at tennis.

I hope this tennis sub-forum grows this year and especially more Europeans and asians get involved here, judging from the numbers and volume at BetFair wagering tennis is really booming. Pathetic offerings from most US facing books on the Australian Open this year, the most miserable odds and props and spreads on a Slam that I can remember.

I would love to see more dialogue on trading on Betfair, and more Euros, Aussie/Asians on here, wagering through Pinnacle or Betfair seems to be more of a must now than anytime I can remember. At least 5dimes has alot of challenger lines and doubles numbers but their numbers are just horrible.

Oh for sure, it helps, but once you've got a good feel for the top 20 players games you don't need to watch all of their matches to be successful in the bigger tournaments - in fact, sometimes it's actually better to base things off stats then what they look like playing in the lesser tourneys. Tennis is a great sport to watch and bet on - Slams and Masters make up 15 weeks of the year or so, throw in the other major prize money events and you've got a good 20 weeks of betting out of 52 - that's plenty enough for me.

Exhibition matches in a few weeks at Madison Square Garden -- Monday, March 5th.

Wozniacki vs. Sharapova and Federer vs. Roddick.

[EaglesPhan36]

Well I hope a lot of you guys will stay around and not be just Slam drop-ins, this place is a lot more helpful with more people posting picks.

[beefcake]

Yeah, me and Eagles cant scour Twitter and Facebook to come up with Challenger angles by ourselves..We need help...

Count me in.

I have to say Challengers are a very guilty pleasure, but they honestly might be better betting matches than a lot of the ATP level matches. Mostly, those guys are there because they need money to eat and travel to their next tournament. Effort is rarely an issue with those guys. The ones you watch out for are the mostly ATP level guys who do drop downs to either try and get form or rape a tournament for the title cash. Wondering if James Blake might do this again .... last news I found on him was he was rehabbing his knee and hoping to start up at San Jose.

Speaking of Twitter, this gem from Dmitry Tursunov.

5 in the morning on Saturday and I have guests! No, not crabs... It's Doooping control! It's doooping control! They come and take ur urine - it's do-ping cont-rol!!!

[gregm]

I wish I knew more about them, I have a friend who is a tennis coach who runs clinics and he gives me some names of players to watch and I have been to some tournaments in Florida but so much of my stuff comes from what data I can gather for matches and certainly not alot to work with in challengers.

I like this twitter,facebook angle. If you guys ever need anyone to do some legwork for you , I would love to learn more about wagering these tourneys.
