Well I really should have been quite a bit down as I "treated" myself to some real betting (never really done any before) and appear to be gubbed at most places, but it turns out I am somehow £19 up (plus another £25+ from Casino). I'll take that!

It'll be another year before I real bet again :)

Edit: @Jon I did my required wagering on some slot winnings on Bonanza, so thanks for that!

Can someone tell me what’s happened here. Look at Anibale Fly, who got the 5th place in 365...546

This was an each way bet it looks like? Bet 365 was paying 5 places (I also won on an each way on the same horse, but didn't match it on Smarkets), so you would have won this one. Smarkets was only paying 4 places I think, so you won in both.

Your lack of battery is a bit scary... plug it in!

Yes that’s my understanding too, so I think I have won the extra place which is £90? I need to record things better!!

I was really lucky today - I found the odds terrible on BFSB & managed just one bet....on If The Cap Fits - only a £5 bet but it all helps :)

In the end I kept refreshing and moved fast when the odds were decent. Managed one hit today and redeemed my £25 FB (only just though as the Betfair site was very dodgy close to the Grand National!)

I got Anibale Fly too in the extra place on a £10 ew bet, just trying to work it all out as placed 8 bets in total and 3 won at b365, after a long day I just cant get my head round it. But i do know I've made a packet on this race.

I did mine on Friday night & it took me about 45 mins altogether to make sure everything was done ok. I fully understand that concern. It was only when the refund hit the account that I felt relieved to be honest & I have been doing matched betting on & off for nearly 8 years!

That’s actually reassuring to know the fear factor remains!! Better than being complacent!!

An update on Betway... I am definitely gubbed and stake restricted, but for some reason I have concluded that I am getting the bonus back on the horse racing.. maybe I should do a bit more betting with them and see if they reconsider..

I need to get some money out of there anyway.

Hiya Guys
ACCA question for ya, I'm doing a four fold acca on P Power, if one match goes down stake back as free bet. Thing is if one match goes pear shaped do I still continue laying the remaining games or do I leave them...
Thanks guys for your help...Max
