Most bookmakers will allow each way betting, normally offering a third of the odds on the place part of he bet if your selection finishes first or second. Normally the draw is known for tennis tournaments so if you find a player in the weak half of the draw, even if they aren't the most likely to win the tournament they could be a good each way bet.

Example: -The two favorites for a tournament may be in the same half of the draw meaning they can't play each other in the final. This makes the third favorite for the tournament the favorite to reach the final from the other half of the draw.

Match Betting - This is betting on who is going to win each individual match in a tournament. There are only two possible outcomes in each match so the odds are likely to be very short for the favorites so many people place four or five players in an accumulator each round, often mixing both men’s and women’s matches.
