LOTS of money to be made today

I've actually used around £2500 today!!! on......

Unibet Boxing
McBookie Football
32Red Football
WH OddsBoost Football
WH OddsBoost Racing
10Bet Sports Free Bet
Toals Football
Betfred Football Inplay
PaddyPower Boxing
I've got 4 Accas ending today 2 of which should hopefully come in and give me a £25 free bet each ;)
I've dropped £125 on Betfair Horses
Sporting Bet Horse Refund
Betway Horse Refund
Skybet Horse Refund

Dropped £50 on Coral

What would you expect your return on £2.5k be? Better than bank interest, I'm sure! :D

@MintSky, save your Bet365 account for 2up on the football - it is woth far more in the long-term than the horses, quicker to do and less likely to lead to a gubbing.
Thanks for the advice :) I certainly was finding trying to do the horses on there a bit time consuming, so I think that will suit me better.

Out of curiosity, is it that offer in particular that can attract a gubbing, or horses in general?

I have to admit, I do like seeing what offers you guys are doing - I often find some extras I hadn't spotted that way! :)

Much better day for me as well. Problem is all my money is with Betfair and I don't have any spare to do new offers.

Horses in general, especially if you win on them. Basically due to BoG, if the price shortens you take value from the bookie, and if it drifts you still take value from the bookie. So if you win a lot of horse bets they are more likely to get antsy than if you win a lot of football bets.

When betting on horses on bookie accounts I care about, as a very general rule I try and stick with the big feature race(s) of the day plus only make my bets fairly close to the off. For accounts I'm less fussy about, I'll do whatever I fancy!

That all said, if you have a Racing profile (ie a regular punter) you're less likely to stand out than if you're only chasing random Racing offers every once in a while. I bet on the nags on all my bookies from the start, I just make sure I don't thrash them too much.

Hi, the Bet365 4/1 horses offer is likely to attract a gubbing IF you hammer it too much. I do the occasional 10/15 stake every few weeks on big Saturday races. But I ask myself this - would I rather make a few quick quid on 4/1 horses? Or much more profit potential on 2up? Hands down the latter, it is one of the best MB offers I've seen in 7 years doing this.

However, horses in general can be tricky for gubbing...why? because of liability for the bookie on horses backed at big prices by arbers/sharps/matched bettors. That's why I tread carefully with horses, be sensible with stakes and don't arb them.

Been away this weekend with zero reception. I feel really stressed out about missing so much yesterday but I have started the month with a £20 acca refund so that’s good.

Wouldn't stress about it honestly.

Made £180 odd yesterday in total but probably about an hour spent sorting out all my offers on Sat morning.

The good thing about Matched Betting is that the money is there today, tomorrow and next week so if you are away it doesn't matter because you can just do it the following week!

I sometimes split them up so do a £20 alongside a £5 etc with the same bookie
