Torque Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 I'm going to see if it's possible to turn a small profit betting on tennis at short odds. There are a few different elements to my strategy which I'll flesh out as I go along, one of which is trying to take advantage of the favourite-longshot bias. I'll be using one point stakes throughout, and I'll post up any selected matches the night before they're played. There's only one for tomorrow, which is at the French Open.

Torque Posted May 27, 2015 Author Share Posted May 27, 2015 Re: Tennis Shorts Paire beat Fognini so that's a losing start for the thread. Still, losses are inevitable even at short prices. A few hundred bets will give a clearer picture as to whether this can work or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
