Matched Betting Discussion [OT] Discussion about Matched Betting II {Beginners Guide in 1st Post}

I saw that HUKD post the other day, I hope the guy is playing around and it's somehow fake, otherwise he's going to lose a LOT of money if one of those 3 don't win!

Logged onto poker stars yesterday to do one of the offers and saw that the only bet I'd ever place was a free one they gave me when they launched the sports book. I ended up risking attempting the signup offer, not one of the offers I went to do and it worked, so £30 of free bets on stars to use plus £25 on PP from the risk free tennis in play.

I am FREEEEEEEEEE of the Netbet rollover!

That was a horrible one, the odds are atrocious. I thought I was going to end up with no profit at one point but I've managed £30 out of the £50 FB, much better than I anticipated earlier this week.

Now that's clear, I can focus on the Euros. The goalscorer offers are poor atm I hope the odds close in a bit.

I agree

Not touched goalscorer ones

Ladbrokes have a 'free bet when team wins' offer on btw

No it's not obvious - what are they actually betting on, outright winner of Euro2016? In which case what if France, Germany or Spain don't win? I'm confused as to what situation they are betting on that only involves 3 teams of which 1 of them is guaranteed to win the back bet.

D'oh. Somehow I looked at that & saw France v Spain.

I guess he's planning to lay the bets off later for a profit - you can lay France at 4.3 currently although Germany & Spain are higher than that atm.

What's HUKD anyway? Can I see the post you're talking about?

 

[stonecrows]

Thanks, I'm definitely doing the outright winner ones, but the TGS ones have poor odds and they're high so it'll nab a lot of liability. And I don't know much about football, but I'm pretty sure there's less chance of eg. Ronaldo scoring multiple goals than there is France winning multiple games? So the OW offers would be more likely to bring in free bets.

I've just thought, I've never done any goalscorer bets either, so it might look funny if I suddenly do now. I might just avoid them, do the outrights and hope for some good offers during the competition.

Easily done, I did a double take myself thinking I must be missing something somehow, LOL.

No idea what HUKD is though, hopefully someone else can answer that one.

Also, belated Welcome to themoneyshed and our little Matched Betting corner

Think it's the HotUKDeals website/forum.

Not sure but if you keep in with them they do the same as skybet £25 for £5 but email only

Yeah it was on PA I read a thread that mugging didnt matter but common sense would tell you that if you only do offers the bookie will be on to you!

I had a pp account for years and won and lost a few good times then started mb and after 3 weekend offers got gubbed

 

[Hivenhoe]

There's no way the bookies would know your MB'ing unless you change your betting habits or follow the herd thus flagging something odd to them or they just assume everyone is MB'ing.
However as I've said before there's no rhyme nor reason why bookies gub accounts

 

[Jon]

It is literally raining Euro offers at the moment!!!

 

[vness66]

Made £32 from sign ups to coral and betway plus waiting for the bet Fred free bet to be added to my account. Signed up to PA for a month at first to see how I go. Signed up for a new bank account with a different bank to just be for MB. Don't want to do any more sign ups until that's sorted as worried about it all the betting withdrawals being on my account I use for everything!

My biggest issue is that I'm not signed up to all the bookies running the offers! Going to have to make do with the ones I do have accounts with.

 

[Jon]

I've avoided some of the advanced sign ups because the reloads I'm getting on my main accounts are making me enough money.

How long did it take people to actually get the hang of matched betting? I started about a month ago and I still have to triple check every bet I place because I'm certain I've done it wrong or missed something out :

About 10 months in I STILL triple check most bets, going back and forward. I'd say I have the hang of it, but I don't want to make a stupid mistake.

That makes me feel better! Thanks for replying
