Points go 0-15-30-40-game. You have to win a game by two points, so if both are on 40, you go to duece-advantage(player)-game. It's not hard.

And that 40 is only used if it's closer than a point, but so that 45 indicates advantage in a close game. Something about old indoor tennis using clocks to Mark scores. Although this is almost definitely bullshit.
