I know Intertops is the worse book for tennis.

betfair

I am interested in this too. Any US focused books actually offer a variety of tennis bets on a consistent basis?

[SBR Lou]

5Dimes is the best option for Americans. BetPhoenix is probably second. Matchbook can be good but the liquidity seems poor aside from majors.

For non-Americans, a combo of Pinnacle and Betfair should be all you need.

BetOnline may not have much variety, but the prices on the matches they do have are very competitive and I use them for Tennis only.

Lou speaks accurately ... for once.


5Dimes is the place to go IMO if you want to bet outside of just picking the winner. They have # of games, +/- # of games for most matches. BetPhoenix is where I am at, only ML wagering until the finals of these current tourneys and then they have had the other options. US Open they may offer more "games" betting ... I hope.

Ladbrokes has a lot of variety in tennis and also livebetting is cool.But lines are bad.

5Dimes does indeed have the most options, it's a must have. Bookmaker/DSI do often have some of the best prices on favs, I generally parlay my chalk bets over there to get them to a manageable price. BetUS and SIA can often be spotted with great prices on dogs, and BetUS is the only other US-book I'm aware of that offers handicaps and totals on every match just like 5Dimes does. Intertops has some lousy prices for single match moneylines, but I have yet to find a book that offers better prices on set outcomes. Matchbook often comes close to Pinny prices, but good luck getting more than $100 down on a match at a decent price.

If you're going to play tennis effectively from the United States, you need a range of books. These are just the ones I use most often, there are a few others I keep funded just in case I see something juicy from them. BetOnline, Bodog and now Sports Alive all fit in that category. I'm sure there are a few more that I'm forgetting, I'll add them if they come to me.
