[kc89]

Hey guys dunno if this is the correct place to put this but here i go.

I registered here about 6 weeks ago and have done nothing but constantly read an re-read things about matched betting untill its drove my mind mad lol theres a topic titled noob help here
viewtopic.php?f=3&t=3564
this covers alot of questions beginners may want to ask, now im convinced i understand and feel comfortable doing this which is what i feel is most important so today i opened my 1st William hill account with promo code F25, back liverpool 1.5 25pound, lay 26.04 liverpool @ betfair 1.49 placed 30 pound in betfair account just for the 1st bet but will add either 120 - 170 after the game on sunday, wish me luck for the future ill keep you updated

Hi kc89
Look forward to reading your blog. Sounds like a good first bet. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you that Liverpool win (so you also get the betfair freebie).

Well, liverpool lost @ home 1-0 t west brom so thats my 1st 25free bet from WH ready to use, got till sunday morning to find a good bet but it seems bit harder than i thought to find a good bet lol, noticed plenty of gee gee's but the odds between websites are no good plus im not sure what totesport is so tryna just stay to football which narrows it down.

Totesport or tote betting?
I strongly advise on gee gees betting for the free bets. They are so easy to find yourself on the good bookies like William hill.

[kc89]

either, iv not looked @ it tbh because i dont have an interest in the gee gees and dont understand the rules + laws but i should look into it as there are plenty of races per day.

It says totepool atm above the races but earlier it was 1 of the 2 you said

Totesport is a Bookmaker, formerly state owned but now owned by Fred Done (Betfred)

Totepool is a style of betting not really suitable for matched betting purposes.

Betting on horses is easy enough once you have some experience under your belt but not advisable for beginners. Rule of thumb, never place a bet you don't understand

[kc89]

Cheers bud, wasn't going because i dont know enough about it, most of races @ WH are totepool so ill just stay away with it all together.

[SharpeShooter]

You're right you don't know enough about it

The Totepool is a bit like the football pools but for horses. WH offer straight betting on every UK & Irish horse race every day.

Betting on a horse to win a race is no different to betting on Man Utd to beat Man City. They either will or won't win. The only difference is that Man Utd and Man City will definitely play, where one of the horses in the race you bet on may not run. The race will still go ahead but the odds will be altered to reflect the Non runner. This is the only rule to worry about but is big enough that a beginner shouldn't be betting on horses.

cheers 4 the advice !! Ill just have a look @ them and watch what happens to the odds as race time gets closer + read more about it.

Backed 25 INIESTA 2 score anytime @ 6.0 @ WH

Layed 22.06 '' @ 5.6 @ betfair, iniesta just scored so 125 in WH = on its way back to my account then back 2 betfair

Next bookie !
