I want to try doing a double on a £5 FB I have. On the trickybet calculator do I enter it as an SNR bet or a Normal bet?

Also, regarding the Underlaying and Overlaying sections at the bottom:

Does the 'Overall position if win' mean if the bet wins at the Bookies?
Does the 'Overall position if lose' mean if the bet wins at the Exchange?
Is this the case, regardless of whether I lay it in standard, overlay or underlay mode.

Many thanks :)

I use this for those occasions when I have already a part lay in place which it is good for. For doubles I definitely recommend the Ultimatcher spreadsheet as you can play with the numbers easier, and also adjust the second lay odds after the first leg has settled.

I managed to turn a £25 free bet this week into a £35 profit due to a nice movement on the odds 8)

PS. you are right regarding what the "overall position" means

Just made £130 doing that PP Casino slot offer with wagering through £100 to get 20 free spins

Did it with only £15 and 25p spins of all things!

Used Batman and Joker slot, thing just went bonus mad!!

Placed a few muggy horse bets on this afternoon, ended up making £5 rather than a QL due to multiple BOG.

Placed lots of muggy football bets as well, obviously no matter how high odds I placed I still managed to win into the bookies.

One day I may have your cojones to do a £100 offer to just get £4 of free spins!! But the EV (and variance) put me off

My mentality is that I'm not gonna risk £100 on that offer

At worst case I figure it would expose me to maybe £25-£35 of risk doing 25p spins to wager the £100

I tend not to go more than the Lads £30 on slots to get £5 bet, having said that when doing it the other day this happened :

Was a bit weird as the slot crashed when going into the bonus round (with 20 free spins). It came back into the bonus round 2 spins in, but 2 spins into 50 free spins !!!!

Am I complaining .......................... LIKE HELL I AM!! ;D

Hi, [member=4240]jkg-jkg[/member] :). Unfortunately I do not have the Ultimatcher Spreadsheet (or any for that matter) as I do not have Excel.

Thank you for confirming that the 'overall position if Win' means that the bet Wins at the Bookies, and that the
'overall position if Lose' means that the bet Loses at the Bookies (money goes into the Exchange).

Does anyone else do corals "bet £25 for £10 free bet" each week?

You can claim it by just doing a handful of horse refund offers with them each Saturday

I have been since the start. It is only £5 online. The other £5 is 'in store'. I generally keep an eye out for a close match during the week.

Yes, I have been doing the Coral Club offer for a few weeks now. Only make about £1-£2 at the most though as the Qualifying Loss tends to be around £1-£1.50 ish mark on the matches I find.

I also find it annoying as I can only get the £5 Free Bet as there is no store local to me, and even if I could go on buses (very rarely), the fare would be about £5.

Still, as a certain supermarket says, 'every little helps' ;)

I also do the Skybet club one, most weeks - again if I can find a suitable match

[member=1]Jon[/member] I thought the Coral offer was Monday to Thursday only, to qualify for a FB at the weekend?
You also have to remember to 'OPT IN' to the promotion EVERY WEEK to get it.

That's okay, [member=1]Jon[/member] Just checked the conditions again and it does say for bets placed from Monday onwards AND SETTLED by 11.59pm Thursday. It is for bets of £25 or more (e.g. can be one bet or a quantity including Acca's) the odds also have to be Evens (2.0 at least).

Also, don't forget to use your FB by the Sunday - I forgot one week, ha ha!

HTH :)

Just been to my local PP shop to place my normal Acca's and they told me as of tomorrow the insurance will only be a max £25 free bet, Ive not seen anything on the website so I'm not sure if this is only in a shop so just be aware if you plan to place any acca's.

Mind you the young lady did say there was a way round it as to just put the bet through twice !! ;D
