Trading the most amazing Tennis match ever!

Peter Webb 3rd July 2020

Betfair tennis trading Tennis is know for it’s wild variability. The scoring system lends itself to remarkable comebacks and seemingly dominant players snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. How does this translate into a profitable strategy for a Tennis trader? I’ve always wondered who invented the scoring system fand it’s rather really bizarre oddities….

An Ace is worth more than a point!

Peter Webb 10th July 2018

When you read that statement it looks a little strange. How can one point be worth more than another? But statistics seem to show that’s true. With the big servers on court at Wimbledon, let’s look at the perfect serve. Wimbledon Wimbledon is the home of mighty servers, with alternate big servers booming the ball…

Betfair Tennis Trade Anyone Can Do

Dallas 2nd July 2018

As Wimbledon is about to start I though it might be an idea to explain one of the simplest but most effective trades in tennis anyone can do. The strategy is known as ‘Laying the 1st set winner’ and it’s one that’s been around a long time but used at the right time and in…

Gamesmanship in Tennis

Peter Webb 15th July 2017

It was interesting to see the outrage over Cillic’s very slow service during the Wimbledon semi-finals.

Gamesmanship

I’ve mentioned on the blog several times that elements of gamesmanship are prevalent in Tennis. They are all designed to throw the person on the other side of the net off balance and out of the zone.

You see medical timeouts, comfort breaks, disputes, rain breaks when there are just a few drops. There is no better way to put your opponent …

British Grand Prix

Peter Webb 10th July 2016

After a really successful week, I’m ducking out of trading seriously today to watch some sport and do a few other things. I can’t rule out doing something at some point, the temptation can be great, but I’ll endeavour not to do much. I may trade the Euro 2016 final pre-off.

British Grand Prix stats

The thin line between individual skill in Tennis

Peter Webb 8th July 2016

If you have been active on Wimbledon these past two weeks you would have seen some great matches. But you should have also seen something else, maybe without realising it.

Often you see an outsider really battle away at a heavy odds on favourite, maybe even winning the first set, but despite this, their odds don’t seem to come in that much. Why is that?

What’s the point?

The first thing to note is there are a lot of points …

Can you predict 1.01 defeats in Tennis?

Peter Webb 5th July 2016

Surface problems aside, the main news from Wimbledon so far was the shock’ defeat of Novak Djokovic.

Of course things are very easy in hindsight. But that said, short priced players are easily opposed when trading, more on that in a second . The thing that is surprising in these cases is to see somebody who traded near 1.01 before the off losing. That’s rare, but certainly not impossible.
