[member=1315]Pbrail[/member] - Hi yes that makes total sense, thanks for explaining it. So do people mostly just play the slots in the casino? I've heard them mentioned a lot now.

[member=3461]Fairweather[/member] Are you on PA? There are tons of slot offers out there that vary in value. For example you have your Coral one which has a x50 wagering but you got the £10 for free (No Risk), but there are others where for example you might only have to bet £5 or £10 but they have a x1 requirement. There are also higher risk ones where you wager £100+ for a bigger chance of a reward.

Basically what PA does is it sorts out the best offers that long term should result in you being in profit (referred to as +EV) - so you might do 10 offers and come away down on 5, but up on the other 5 - but mathematically the 5 you're up on should exceed what you lost on the others.

That's simplified ofc, but that's why you see so many people doing lots of slot offers - many people will be down from these offers individually, but overall within the bigger picture they will be up.

The Paddy gubbings do seem very random. I can kind of understand why I got gubbed (I kept winning with them :p) but there seems to be no rime or reason to it :( Hope you can get decent earnings elsewhere [member=528]nat21luv[/member] :)

In other news, I have made a net profit this month so far of £4.23 :( I'm just not in a position to do the big signups at the moment, and the reloads I can do seem thin on the ground as well. I know I need to get moving on this but a lot of the bigger signups and their Ts&Cs daunt me a little...

Yes I've signed up with PA. I haven't got to the Casino offers yet as I've plenty to keep myself busy with the beginner offers. I was just curious about the casino side of things as I have this free £10 to make use of somehow!

I've been cracking on with the beginners offers I didn't do last year all afternoon. Natwest have just blocked my card :eek: Not really surprising as it's an account I never use and have suddenly started paying out to bookies :D

Ditto, appears to be very random with no logic!

Escaped again thankfully...

I've done price boosts and won a lot so cooled it the last couple of weeks
I did half regular spins and half 1p spins on the Marvel offer
I have never done any horses
I've bet on EPL, NBA and top Europe football
I've done a few accas
I've done the in plays but never both Saturday and Sunday

Oh and I just lost £165 in the casino so that might help [emoji23]

I got gubbed by Paddy a few weeks ago but yesterday I had ane e-mail from them offering me a free £5 bet on the T20 cricket in their shops? Has anyone else had this ?

Think I'll go in just for the fun of it and see if it works, as I assume somewhere down the line it must link back to my on line account, apparently you have to use the betting machines in the shop? - I didn't even know they had them lol

FINISHED the gonzo offer.

Net: up £15 after wagering through £150 with 20 free spins at £0.60 each to come.

I counted a random 20 spins amongst my 250 and I won £2.52 on £0.20 spins. So around £7.50 I guess at £0.20 spins. If I win £5-10 I'll be £20-25 up net and happy enough with that... Be nice to hit a big one to make up for last time though!

Took 25 mins to go through those 250 spins... :|

Now for Paddy. Bracing myself!

Lost £50 wagering £150 on Gonzo Betfair offer [emoji24]

I feel your pain! If you hit a good free fall with £0.60 spins then you could make that back and more so FINGERS CROSSED

Nooooo did it finish at 10pm? Missed it the last two weeks! Only just checked this mention as I was mid paddy gold mine wagering. Gone from £22 up at 300 spins to £22 down at 950 spins. Could be worse, just 50 more to go and I'll have 100 free spins which is niiiice

Error! Can someone help me out?

I've layed something that I thought I had a £10 SNR but it turns out I don't. It should have had 4 back odds and 4.1 lay. I've layed at 4.1, how can I now place a bet to minimise my loss here? :(

I've layed as an SNR but now I need to bet as a 'normal' bet, I can't work out how to fix this.

I think I've got it.

The liabilty at the exchange is £22.78

To even it out I need to place a bet where the RESULT if it wins is around £22.78

currently I see 3.7 so I need to do £22.78/3.7 = £6.15

Hopefully that will fix it. Needed to get the old noodle working overtime to sort that!

If you lay SNR instead of normal you're underlaying so it's easy to fix. You just calculate again as normal and then lay the difference.

Have you essentially layed two bets now?

If so try chromaweb Arb calculator as they have an 'already layed and need to back section'
