Hi All,
This has probably been covered before but...if a deposit is immediatly doubled in a bookie(deposit £25 then hey presto £50 in account straight away) - in the calc do you put £25 in the "stake forfiet" box or £50? Probably quite obvious but staring at a screen for hours can sometimes make simple thinking difficult so once again i am just double checking!

Cheers, Rob

You would put £25 in the stake forefit box.

I get that, especially when trying to find a match with a low odds bookie. Eyes feel like they are bleeding come the end!

Luckily now I'm better at finding them! Does frazle your brain though!

It really depends on the terms offered/bookie. Bwin for example double your stake. No mention of the bonus being stake not returned so for them the stake forfeit is zero (betting the full deposit and bonus). Extrabet by comparison double your stake on the same selection, so for the £25 bonus the stake forfeit is £25 on a £50 stake. Deposit bonuses are usually SR. Free bets are usually SNR. BUT READ THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS every time to be sure. If in doubt treat as SNR as it will only cost you a few £'s in profit at worst
