Week 5

Not the best week I've ever had, I always find it quiet the week of an international football break. A couple of reloads at the weekend rescued it a little and some new sportsbook SUB's but very little casino action this week. On a positive note I have no fewer than 5 people potentially interested in joining in. Figures for week are

Week 6 was a good Sportsbook week (In the end). Started off slowly but Bill Hill came up trumps with his £70 of free bets per account. I never do the live in play ones as I have 3 kids so I'm not going to commit to be sat at my PC at a given time. I still did 4 bets per account though. Found arbs for all the qualifiers. Mugged The X Factor offer across the 3 fav's for elimination which netted £50. Mugged the Winning margin bet on Aus vs Scotland. Covered Aus up to 30 points, never even considered Scotland could win so that netted £0. Layed the rest of the freebies for a healthy profit overall.

Legend To make £400+ a week I'd have to be nailed to my computer with a drip feed and potty nearby...
Sorry thats probably too much information

Week 7 I've hit my target again. The Will Hill weekend BOGOF was a bit of a let down this week, I made £94 from a potential £360 of Free Bets. I couldn't get all the qualifiers on and more than half of the Free Bets I did qualify for couldn't be layed. I covered as many outcomes as I could and invariably it was the lowest odds that won. On a positive note the wife went and got herself a bank account so i could do the few books that don't take moneybookers. I have confirmed 2 people who want to join the fun so I've enlisted the help of my mate and we're gonna share the workload / profits

Week 8, another good week. Did the Totesport SUB Basket and underlayed everything. Hit a few winners to come out with nearly £120 profit from £100 bonus

Ladbrokes casino bonuses are poor this month so looks like Decembers profit will have to come from sportsbooks. Interwetten (again) this week, which ill be the last one on OH's card.

Steve, Im working through the freebets for the first time.

Whats the best approach to exploit the Totesport £100 to full advantage.

I note from T&C that they ask to play 5 bets to qualify for the full £100.

Got any tips,

Cheers

ST

I placed every bet on the horse racing. Totesport usually have several arbs everyday with their early prices. Matched betting on horses is not for the inexperienced though as their are problems that can arise.

I underlayed every bet I placed so that if the horse lost I would just break even and if it won, instead of pennies I would make a few pounds. I had 5 winners during the basket and withdrew nesrly £1,000 at the end.

Also remember that the £25 bet is only a minimum, if you find a decent arb and can afford to tie the money up, double the stake for double the profit

[speedtrip]

Thanks Steve for your reply.

I know zip about horse racing and arbing so not sure if ill be able to do this as seems a bit complicated.

What do you mean by underlayed?

I spose u are laying at the BE and backing at the bookie for the qualifying bets at matched odds and then looking for longer unmatched odds for the freebet itself

Also what is a decent arb and do u know of a good source of material for explainging this.

Sorry to be a pain

[jethro]
