    Default Betting on tennis -- a fool's errand?

    It seems like everyone here gets murdered while wagering on overseas tennis matches. I suppose you can go "all chalk," but at -200 to -450 odds? It's difficult to make money long term that way.

    I don't see anyone making money consistently here. Do things get better in January with the Aussie Open?

    In my experiences, things are easier in the Grand Slams. Any other tournament except the Madrid Masters is a lottery. This week I have been winning cash but losing a lot of SBR points on tennis. I don't think I will touch tennis for a while, like you say the all chalk is just not rewarding at all and while upsets do happen and happen often, I can rarely chose exactly which.

    tennis has been almost single handedly saving my bankroll.

    Tennis seems to always bail me out from a losing day. Been very profitable to my bankroll as well.
