Bob isn’t worried about fast pictures, he’s trading games. There is so much hysteria about fast pics it’s ridiculous.

- For good reason – do you see how much money is matched during a match and the odds the money is getting matched at? There are 3 stages for money being matched between points during a tennis match. First come the quick picture players who hoover up the dead money and offer inferior odds, secondly it’s everyone else without quick pictures and may still want to get matched so have to jump the quick picture money and offer more competitive prices, and then come the desperate.

There’s 20 seconds plus between points, just pick your moments.

- Yeah, there may be 20 seconds, but you have to wait for the market to reach its position before putting your money into it, so that’s 5 seconds gone.

If it worries you, don’t bet. If you’re smart about it, turn it in your favour. Put a price you are willing to take into the system and let it be taken.

- I would seriously suggest for anyone attempting to trade tennis not to just let their money get taken. That’s the road to the poor house. If you just put your money in at the wrong place and are behind more competitive prices, the only way you’ll be matched is if you are wrong.

The market assumes the player about to serve will hold, so laying them doesn’t hold much risk (down a few ticks if successful), but big upside if they are broken, or even get close to that break.

- It sounds so simple! Just keep laying the server and we’re all going to make millions! The market doesn’t assume that a player about to serve is going to hold. The market moves less if the server holds, but it doesn’t assume he/she will.

Posts like this make trading tennis sound easy. It is not easy.
