Southern Geordie 1 Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 ManU 0 -0 Reading.................. rather buggers the original theory I think............... Yep! I found that out the hard way Lucky it wasn't 4 grand down the line but it just proves that nothing is a 'dead cert' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themags 0 Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 using BetFreds £50 free bet from that site, my calculations below say you can make a minimum profit of £18 on the Tottenham vs Everton game tonight, someone correct me if i'm wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southern Geordie 1 Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 (edited) Unfortunately that's not right, you can make that 18 quid but it won't be until another game. Because to activate that 50 quid you have to to spend 50 quid first. Try clicking "Qualifier" and it'll say you've made a very small loss, but then thats when you use that 50 quid free bet to put on another matched bet, meaning that you can make bout a guaranteed 40 quid on the next game. I've been reading about it all morning, I finally understand it! Edited August 14, 2007 by Southern Geordie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themags 0 Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 ah right, that was a very rushed example like so you going to take the plunge and try your luck at this matched betting lark? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southern Geordie 1 Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 Yeah think I am, but going to wait till the weekend cos I'm owed quite a bit of money from my mate. Thing is with the betting exchange (betfair) you have to put about 150 quid in there incase you win on betfred instead. Gonna try and lay the underdog so that the chances are that I'll have my money in betfair instead of having to keep withdrawing it from bookies like betfred and putting it into betfair. Seems confusing but after about a day I've got to grips with it. Also my mate said he's had a chat with his work mate who's earnt bout 300 quid in 2 weeks, for sitting at your computer it ain't bad eh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themags 0 Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 there is a Coral offer on there £10 free bet, stake returned that looks canny for testing the waters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southern Geordie 1 Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 Good point, problem is I'm already registered with coral. Don't think you can do two accounts otherwise you could rinse everybody over and over. Then again they closed my account cos of my "age verification" due to paying with a debit card. Even though I'm 20 they were asking me to ring up a number about verifying my age, couldn't be arsed as it seemd a bit dodgy! May re-register anyway..

Southern Geordie 1 Posted August 14, 2007 Share Posted August 14, 2007 (edited) By the way if anybody wants a free 50 quid coral bet - http://coral.co.uk/sun50/ The more money you're willing to put in the more you get out, if the odds are high then you could win a lot off that 50 quid bet so may wait and use betfreds £25 free bet to test the waters with a really low odds bet so don't have to put much in Edited August 14, 2007 by Southern Geordie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southern Geordie 1 Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 Started this matched betting. Seems like a confusing gig at first but really pays off. Earnt bout 80 quid in 4 days. Seems odd though having about 400 quid in a couple of betting accounts! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob W 0 Posted August 26, 2007 Share Posted August 26, 2007 nowhere near as odd when you have nowt in them and they're sending the heavy mob round for "a talk" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
