Now I’m going to show you how I made nice 44 euro profit on a tennis match where many would probably lose as much. To be honest – I was also on the verge of trading out and taking a loss. However, Williams had to score just one point and the whole situation turned upside down and I could start reflecting on how to maximize the profits instead of minimizing the losses!

So here you can see that I’ve backed the favourite player Williams at odds of 1.66 using a hundred euro stake. As you can see her price is shortening and I could make around 15 euro profit had I closed the trade at the current odds. But there’s an essential part of every trading strategy – and it’s the minimum necessary profit per trade. In other words – unless the odds have reached the critical level – don’t get out of the trade!

Of course, no two tennis matches are the same and you always have to add that human factor to the trading process. But generally speaking – you just can’t afford to close trades as soon as the odds are moving in your favour and taking big losses at the same time, waiting until the last moment to see if the price is going the opposite way.

The second match ends with a tiebreak and it’s a very special moment for traders – a great opportunity looms. The price fluctuations are very large – especially if a player can win the whole match by winning the tiebreak.

In this tiebreak such a player is Na Li – if she wins the tiebreak, the match point is hers. Therefore I have to watch the game very closely in case if the underdog pushes Williams’s odds too high and the potential loss figure that’s showing in red gets too big.

But Williams manages to win this set point and the odds slip out of the critical zone. However, even by scoring the set point she doesn’t secure the minimum profit needed in this match. So I’m waiting a bit into the third set to see how the players perform. If Williams manages to break, it will most likely insure the profit margin I’ve calculated for this match.

And indeed – as Williams breaks in the third game of the third set, her odds shorten to 1.15 and I can close the trade with 44 euro profit! Not bad for less than an hour’s work. Do that 3 times a day and you’ll probably earn more than you do now in your day job. All you need is the right strategies at the right times.

Thanks and talk to you soon,

Hello my Betfair trading fanatics!

In this Betfair tennis trading video you’ll see a typical example of Race Your Profits System in action.

There are several chances in every match to make big profits – this is a match where just two opportunites made a nice profit.

When the favourite loses the first set, we back her and I’m using a hundred euro stake. 2.12 are the odds I’m getting, and now I can follow the second set watching out for any events that would force me to either accept loss or close the trade with a profit.

When the favourite Vaidisova wins her serves the odds are already down to 1.98. But then the next game begins with her taking the serves. After she breaks in the second game of the second set, I’m laying her and the bet gets matched at 1.61.

31 euro profit has been made on her break point – can you see the potential of break points in tennis trading now?

But that’s not all!

You don’t have to limit yourself by taking advantage of only one break point. If the right criteria are met when another break point occurs – why not use it to your advantage? In the third set Kerber breaks as well and starts leading the match. But the next game is played very well by the former underdog so I decide to lay Kerber.

And as you can see now I’m laying the underdog Kerber because there’s quite a big chance Vaidisova is going to strive to even the score.

The first points of the game are scored by Kerber but the odds critical level hasn’t been reached, so I can allow another point to be scored by her before exiting the trade. But then Vaidisova starts scoring and as she breaks to 40 I’m closing the trade with 25 euro profit. The overall match profit – 58 euro!

An important lesson can be leaned here – there are several occasions in every match to make profits – 58 euro is by no means the limit – but 58 euro in less than 90 minutes is more than we make in our day job!

Well – I guess I can afford a pint or two in the evening, what you think?

‘Til next time,

Paddy.

The reason behind this is that if you sit in a tennis court and watch the game, you’re ahead of all the betting markets both on bookies and Betfair. So if you, say, have a laptop or some other gadget with an Internet connection, you can place a bet on a player as he scores. Then, when the market reacts, you can close the trade with a profit.

Oh boy, that would be my dream! However, the truth is that laptops have been long banned from tennis courts and the tournament organizers are always on check to make sure no-one can exploit the fact that they’re on the court.

So when you’re watching a tennis match on TV, you’re not behind the rest of the market participants. If your TV connection is fast enough and you don’t use firewall on your PC or laptop, you are able to place a bet on a player as he scores and then close the trade when the odds have moved one way or another.

Then what advantage would being in court give to you? Well, you would be able to place the bets without having to stress out whether the bet will be taken or not, as it often happens when scalping. You’d be able to use good thousands as stakes and leave the court having made a small fortune in your Betfair account!

But don’t worry – those pro gamblers won’t even sneak into the courts disguised as journalists – it’s all been thought about. The Madrid Masters, for example, have special security guards in place to make sure no bets are placed on the court!

However, I don’t leave womens tournaments just because of this reason. Not at all!
I’ll show you now how I made easy 32 euro on a match between Azarenka and Radwanska at the Porsche Grand Prix tennis tournament in Germany.

Azarenka had won the first set of the match and many punters would say that she was a sure bet at that moment at the odds of 1.3. However, you always have to keep in mind that there are no such things as sure bets when it comes to gambling!

Using the same gamblers’ language I’d rather say that Radwanska was a very good value bet and very soon I could spot the right moment to take the advantage of it.

I layed Azarenka off at the odds of 1.31 – simply because there was almost no money to take at the other player. As you can see now, I’m 31 euro short should Azarenka win the match.

The next, concluding step of the trade is to green out, of course, and only four minute later I did exactly this. I backed Azarenka at 1.63 which gave me 32 euro profit should she win the match.

Using this trading strategy is really a piece of cake – the only things you have to know is EXACTLY when and why you have to place the first and the second bets of the trade.

Well, you will find out it very soon – I’m going to put together a Betfair tennis trading video system showing you EXACTLY how to exploit certain odds movements in matches where a player loses the first set!

I’ll give you this strategy for a price of a cake as well – you’ll basically have to pay for shipping, and that’s it.
