W.Hill have 20 Free Spins on Dragon's Luck game for all customers at the moment - should see the offer on the right-hand side when you are logged in.

There doesn't seem to be any bonus requirements as I won £2.10 and got it added to my account. I would play it asap as could get withdrawn at any time.

P.S. It relates to the 'Must Drop Jackpots' so I have first dibs on 1% of any winnings, right? Ha Ha!

Good luck :)

Never did that one today, grrr. Still, my 2 lots of 4mm free bets have kept me happy today. Might treat myself to something a bit more exciting for dinner at the pub later :)
Hi Leeceford, you seem to be doing well, what kind of offers do you take on every day?
Do you set yourself a target ?

Still struggling to understand slot offers.
So, I've started a coral £20 for £10 with x10 wagering.
If you are doing the offer and hit a big win whilst using your real money, could you just withdraw it, without touching the bonus? I have finished using the £20 and am about £8 up. I've accepted the bonus, but say I don't win anything with it can I just stop at the end of £10 and withdraw what I won with my own money? I did hit a win of £15 quite early in my using the £20, could I have just stopped there and withdrawn my winnings?
I'm confused, I know!

I'm having a good month this month...nearly at 2k from MB, which is my best month ever :) I don't set myself a target though for MB specifically.

I do whatever I can find good matches for really...
2up
4mm
Hi5 - prob about 4 or 5 horses in total a week. I try not to push it too much as I love my Hills account.
I am now in the Hills loyalty scheme which is quite good. Took about a week to earn a £20 free bet

Casino wise I do whatever I am prepared to risk...depends how the month is going.
I also do a few of the daily things that don't bring in loads but it all adds up...the Gala win a spin and their daily quiz game and also some of the daily free games on Gamseys sites (like Starspins, Heart, Monopoly casino)

I am sure I could earn way more if I went for every offer going but I just don't have the time.
I would probably also earn more if I didn't do so many casino offers as luck never seems to be on my side. Hopefully it will pay off one day though :)

Sometimes you can, sometimes you can't. It depends if by accepting your bonus you tie up your cash until you complete the wagering. You can normally check by going to the cashier and seeing if it will let you withdraw your balance.

thanks for this, am I right in thinking you need a big bankroll for 2up and 4mm?

Not necessarily @ryback888
For 2up if you go for a team with very low odds then you are going to need a massive bet to really make any money out of it. Get a good match on a team with higher odds and although theoretically it is less likely to come in, you never know and a small bet can bring a decent return. Think I made about £60 off a £75 bet last week.

4mm is the same but even if you cant put a big bet on, use your boost to get a perfect/better than perfect match and you've got nothing to lose. The free bet is only 15% of your winnings but every pound adds up!

With your 2up bets do you hope your side goes 2 up then hope the other team comes back or do you underlay etc?

Yes, pretty much. There are three ways to play it really, if your team goes two up

1. Back them on the exchange (or with another bookie if you wish) to guarantee a small profit.

2. Wait and see if the other side get one back, if they do you can back your team for the win for greater profit than in 1.

3. Do nothing and let the match play out. If in the course of the match your team goes 2 up and then throws it away at the end then you will get maximum profit (payout by bookie and lay wins at exchange)

You can do a bit of 2 and 3 by cashing out a bit if you are in scenario 2 but leaving a bit in in case 3 happens. There are calculators/spreadsheets for helping with these on both PA and OM.
