It was a set worthy of a final, toe to toe stuff.

Djokovic is 1.12 to lay. His opponent is a very good clay court player and in form. Anybody tempted to lay Djokovic and hope he loses serve?

Congratulations, you have been more successful than you think!

You are thinking like a trader, not a punter - a gambler would have let that run, hoping Zeballos will get back into the match.

If you have the mindset and the willpower, to accept a bad trade and cash out for a red screen, you are closer to success than you are probably thinking right now

and theres the break of Djokovic serve in first game. £33 cash out. slightly disappointed that the odds only went from 1.14 to 1.21

Good stuff, as Le Tiss said about your trade on Theim your thinking like a trader and this recent trade demonstrates that just as much as your earlier one :mrgreen:

Thanks mate. I'm a huge fan of tennis so I can see this being the sport I focus on. I did actually go for a bit more on that match. Traded it again at 4-4 by laying Djokovic again at similar odds to what he started at as the way the match was panning out at that point I fancied another break of Djokovic serve. Gave it 2 service games but no break so exited when it was 6-5 Djokovic for £7 less profit.

Nadal is 1.04 which seems very low considering this is a QF which I guess in theory means a decent trading opportunity. What are people's thoughts on a pre match lay looking for that break of Nadals serve in first set? I'm tempted but Nadal has been destroying everyone so far.

I've actually made £72 from my tennis trades over today and yesterday. Not bad I guess

Ive just traded my first week on the French Open & got a strike rate of 81% , although didnt make much money due to small stakes & made a right mess of a couple of trades .
I was pleased with the strike rate though , can anyone tell me if that is a good rate for a newbie please ? ( Out of 23 trades 17 green & 6 red )
