Description of the Even/Odd strategy
The “Even/Odd” strategy involves placing a bet on whether the outcome of a given event will be even or odd. Such a wager can be placed on the even/odd number of sets in a tennis match, or the even/odd number of games within a particular set.
In a tennis match, scores of 2:0 and 3:1 result in an even number of sets. Scores of 2:1, 3:2, or 3:0 produce an odd number of sets.
Within a set, scores such as 6:4, 6:0, 6:2, or 7:5 are even. Scores like 6:1, 6:3, or 7:6 result in an odd number of games.

Promising markets for using the “Even/Odd” strategy
Experienced bettors and newcomers apply the “Even/Odd” strategy across several tennis betting markets:
- “Martingale” (chasing method);
- “Handicap” (spread);
- “Service order” in live betting.
Bets using the “Martingale” strategy
Using the “Martingale” approach, the bettor predicts whether the total number of games in the upcoming match will be even or odd and places a bet accordingly.
Example of successful bets using the “Martingale” method.
The capper placed a bet on an even number of games in a tennis match. Bet amount: $3, odds: 1.87. The bet lost.
The bettor placed a second bet of $6 on an odd number of games in another tennis match. Odds: 1.90. The bet lost again.
The capper placed a third bet of $12 on an even number of games. Odds: 1.90. The bet won, resulting in a payout of $22.80.
Across all three bets, the total wagered amount was $21 ($3 + $6 + $12). The net profit from the series was $1.80 ($22.80 – $21).
Handicap bets
To apply this market within the “Even/Odd” betting strategy, the bettor should review the match listings across several bookmakers (ideally 3 to 5).
If the bookmaker offers “+4” or “-4” handicaps with similar odds (for example, the Halep – Świątek match at Indian Wells), the bettor should bet on an even total.
Bets placed using this method have a high success rate — statistically, around 72% of such wagers win.

Service order in live betting
This method involves placing an in-play bet on the “Even/Odd” market for the total number of games, after the first set has ended.
To use this strategy, the capper must select a match featuring a clear favorite and an underdog (the favorite’s odds to win should be below 1.35).
If the underdog served first in the opening set, the bettor should wager on an even number of games in the second set.
