Hi @Jon
what is your expected return & QL on 800 of horse refunds?
I say £800 - that includes exchange money as well!

I've got around 15 horse refund bets on spread across Betfair Sportsbook / Coral / PaddyPower / Betway / Skybet

Around £5.50/£6 of QL in total

Currently in the process of moving house, so nothing for me this weekend. Because BT are useless g!ts I may not have internet until mid Sept :mad: (unless I go for a drive and find a wifi hotspot). I will however be able to do a new set of sign-ups so will. at least for a short while, be ungubbed from a number of bookies :D.

This happened to us about this time last year. Waited over a month for internet to be set up and I had uni work that I needed to get done, was a nightmare so I really feel your pain!

All of today's bets won in to the exchange for me! Hooray!

I want to start giving accas a go, perhaps starting with a double or something "easier" than 5 legs! But, I just can't get it drummed in to my head. I'll probably be looking at laying as I go as opposed to all at once. I've watched the videos on PA but still don't feel quite confident. Does anyone have any posts I can read or a complete "accas for dummies" guide?

I've not seen one but with acca catcher you literally bet / lay the amounts it says on the events it says... that's it!

Jon is right. Both PA and OM acca tools do the hard work for you. If the lay odds change then you change them in the tool and it gives you a revised figure. Timing can be key when laying as the odds typically come down the closer you get to kick-off (although they can spike upwards a bit in the 15 mins before kick-off)
If you are using Ultimatcher A beginner's guide to using Ultimatcher for Matched Betting then the "SEQ M" tab allows you to enter the acca details and you can then see how the odds changing can effect the QL.

I think I'm just going to have to give it a go. Maybe next weekend when PL is back on. Just done a £15 FB with William Hill and my qualifier with 888. Slowly building up that bank roll!

Profit is at about £65 and I started getting in to MB the end of last month really... feels too good to be true that this money is literally just waiting there, you don't believe the system until you see the maths and see it working! Love it!

I know I am not MamaMidwife, but your question reminded me. I started at the end of the first week of August last year, and 4 days ago I hit my £10k profit. Didn't quite manage to do it in the calendar year, but I'm very pleased with that I can tell you :D. I've cashed £5.5k and still have £4.5k in the bookies and exchanges. Thanks to you and Katy helping me get going and have the confidence to give it a go.

That's amazing! Although I did initially misread and thought I read first week of August this year! I was thinking "how in the world?!?"
10k! Well done!

I was lucky enough to be able to start with a bankroll which helped me fund the exchanges and do bigger offers (and not have to withdraw if the bet went to the bookie) so that gave me a bit of a leg up not having to wait for withdrawals. Even then it tales a while to get through the offers, but with perseverence you get through it and all the different types of offers, and now a year in it is second nature.

Loving some of those odds!
I might have to get a 2nd screen for where I stay during the week. I just can't react fast enough on one screen to do in-play offers...and that cost me dearly (well a couple of quid but I missed out on making plenty which is quite annoying!)

I just have two Chrome windows open side by side. Does the job ok if you reduce the size of each screen to 70 or 80% I did think of dragging the TV over to my work desk at one point and using that but thought it might be a bit overkill.

Wow that's amazing! I hope I can get somewhere close to that in time. I love hearing others success stories it spurs me on. Well done @jkg-jkg x
