Odds not looking good on the 17.00 at Ascot with all those extra place offers

Russia V Slovakia was a shocker, good for the mugging and moving of money back to the exchanges

Just thought I'd mention that I had to get on to Coral live support to get my £10 free bet... it should have been 2 x £10 free bets because I was still waiting for Monday's. I don't like contacting support unless I have to, just so I don't bring attention to my account ;-) I should be getting another £10 free bet tomorrow and it might seem like I'm getting too much out of them - I am mugging each time I take an offer so may be I'm being over paranoid.

Wow, did an acca with a free bet, match won yesterday, gone to place the second lay and the odds have drifted so much my £4 profit has turned into a £2 profit :S

I had the second leg of a FB double drift yesterday, it went from 6.70 profit to 0.78. I held my nerve and waited until the inplay to lay it. It was the draw of Poland/Iceland and I managed to get the odds back down to an eventual 8.50 profit instead. However, the blumming game ended in a draw - I would have been about £140 up if I just hadn't laid, or about £170 up if I'd not laid either leg. Hindsight is a wonderful thing.

Taking it easy today, waiting for some money to come back into my account ready for the big offers tomorrow. Bwin and B365 should bring in at least £50 alone.

I decided to leave it and check later, forgot until 15 minutes before though when I rushed to lay it at work... if I hadn't of layed it at all then I'd have won and made £40.. oh well.

Wondered what method people used to keep track of their bets / profits?

I currently use a basic accounting package I have which while it works doesn't tell me the profit / loss I make on each bet - which I would like to be able to do.

Any suggestions / recommendations for something that does this?

Thanks

[member=2823]katbythesea[/member] Are you with Oddsmonkey? They have an Each-Way matcher which is da bommmb. I did three on the 17.35 at a profit (only about 50p but hey, better than taking £££s on qualifying losses). Didn't hit 5th place but I did get a winner with Skybet and Best Odds Guaranteed got me £16 there!

Thanks - no not used it - it's on my list of things to do - which is growing by the day - but not enough hours in said day at moment! Will try & have a look at it tomorrow.

That's me all signed up to the free trial on profit accumulator and placed my qualifying and free bets on both Coral and Betfred...just need to wait a couple of days for all events to take place and see where I am at and then I will hopefully be able to go platinum to get other offers I've deposited £75 so far.

 

[Jon]

Sounds like you are off to a fantastic start [member=3937]bonanzoid[/member]

France bringing in yet more free bets for me!!

 

[The Reverend]

4.2/4.3 for the draw tomorrow if you are doing the b365 risk free offer. and it sometimes hit 4.2/4.2

 

[Jon]

being got?

 

[stonecrows]

Bwin got it too. But it's a £50 FB refund, not cash so profits are lower. Still good. I chucked a mug at bwin yesterday, as I haven't used them since sign up, better mug alongside the England game too.

 

[RickyRaj]

No luck yesterday on the refunds. France winning generated a free £3 bet and the NetBet free £10 (after betting £30) were the only positives.

Managed £20 FB from France yesterday (£5 BF for the outright bet, £10 PP offer for £5 per goal and £5 Griezmann goal on Betway for top goalscorer).

Got loads of bets placed on horses and football today, hoping I don't drain Smarkets TOO much.
