Well, from yesterdays, match against Moya, you would think I would be crazy to have a tennis bet on Tim Henman winning Wimbledon wouldn’t you? Well so would I, but in the betting world, if you’re looking to make a good return on a bet placed then you’ve got to look the other way a little bit.

So how often have you been disappointed in a player or team that you fancy for a competition performing poorly or even losing in the early stages? Happens a lot, but this is good for improving your odds. Let’s face it, do you bet to win or bet to win Money? You know the answer, so to win a good amount of money, you need good odds.

Here’s an example : Do you know that at the time of writing, you can get odds on Tim Henman winning Wimbledon outright at 300 / 1. Now if you placed a tenner on this outcome, you get £3000 back! Reasonable? I think so.

Yes, of course the likelyhood is that it won’t happen but in sport - it can! SO come on, if you want to get some real money from betting, don’t forget that you should be betting with money you can afford to lose - you need to look where the decent odds are.

The Wimbledon tennis tournament is always a popular event for online betting punters to look for tennis free bets. It’s another one of those “family” type events where we welcome new betters to the market who haven’t bet before at all. It’s a bit like the Eurovsion Song Contest in this sense.

This is where those smaller free bets offers come into their own. Look at the like of Coral, Paddy Power and Skybet. Their lower offers will actually attract the casual punter because noone new to betting wants to commit too much. Rightly so, they will fancy a flutter on Wimbledon and look for a low deposit required when they sign up with a new bookmaker. Some of the larger free bets might then scare them off, as there is a slight misconception that a £200 free bet means you have to commit the full £200. This is not actually so. This £200 would be the maximum value that you can get a free bet up to, you could still register and deposit £10 and get the £10 matched. The £200 is just a MAXIMIMUM.

It could therefore be termed that a £200 free bet offer is a “range of free bets” from £10 up to £200 maximum, hence covering all the popular range of free bets, £20, £25, £50, £100, £150.

The French Open starts this weekend of Tennis Betting with some of the big online betting bookmakers offering their free bets as normal for tennis fans. The free money is normally available for a tennis bet with the well known names : Stan James, Ladbrokes, Betfair, etc.

Bit of an intriguing one this rally as some of the crowd pullers such as Roger Federer and Pete Sampras aren’t usually as successful on the unique surface which tends to hold the ball up a little bit and force a higher bounce. The surface is basically clay and brings a completely different tennis arena than anything else, a bit like Wimbledon does with grass.

The women also get underway with the number one being Maria Sharapova who’ll be looking for a title win after a shocking exit from the Australian Open Final earlier this year. The culprit of course was Serena Williams who herself will be getting ready for a revenge attack!

Sharapova had had an injury recently to her shoulder but hopefully has recovered enough to free the arms up and be fully fit.

Summer is nearly here and a Wimbledon free bet is something to think about in your online betting plan for June. The weather has started well - you could even add weather betting to your portfolio!

It will be interesting to see if this will be Roger Federer’s year again and whether he can equal the five straight wins record held by Bjorn Borg. Rafael Nadal will again be one of the hottest opponents who will be looking for revenge on last year. We all know how grass is a great leveller for players at the top.

A Bookmaker free bet on wimbledon will be worth looking at closer to the event to see how the odds are stacking up. We have the major bookies offering tennis betting such as Betfair and Ladbrokes. Blue Square and Betfred are also major sites to visit for a tennis free bet.

For both men’s and womens’s wimbledon, singles and doubles, Coral have a very attractive £10 free bet at the moment which is ideal for the more reserved punter. The Coral Betting site has one of the easiest sign-up pages available on online betting sites.
