Yes, that lloks ok. Theres maybe something im missing as well.

It sure would be great as im just starting out. I opened a new bank account and im just waiting on the debit card to begin meaning i can still get a free bet from betfair worth 25 i think. Win Win.

I wait and see what others think before i do it just to make sure, the only thing is it says that all hardware subject to availability so you may need o be quick.

Received my freeview box yesterday. Easy offer and available to new and existing customers. You should be able to combine this with the £25 SUB too. Need to opt in and bet £50 for this offer

[jayboat]

So, Ive gone in to the world of matched betting. My first bet details below. I bet on one of tonights uefa games

Deposited 50 in 188bet

Man U vs Rangers - Back to draw @6.7

Deposited in Betfair

Man U vx Rangers - Lay to draw @3.95

I cant check the odds right now but they dont look right. The lay odds are way too low. Are you sure you're comparing like for like?
Edit
188 odds for the draw are 3.7 which sounds much more like it. If you want me to check your bet you'll need to include all the figures

[SharpeShooter]

What Jas said too.

Have you placed the bets already?

[jayboat]

Yes, already placed. D'oh.

I got caught up in the moment. I placed a bet on match corners.

I want onto love chat at 188bet and the person told that that bets could not be canceled once placed. If it finishes and draw, i down around 180 and if it does'nt im up around 7 giving me a freeroll on the corners. I was about the phone betfair but i dont have the money in my account to cover the bet as the odds are around 9.1. I guess i have made a very bad rookie mistake on my very first punt but i know what ive done wrong. You bound to be laughing pretty hard at me for this. I'll have to take my time, like i said, just caught up in the moment when i thought i'd found this super arb.lol. Im just gonna let it ride and gamble, hope that it does'nt end a draw. I'll update after the match.

Fingers crossed.

Feel for you mate. Trust me no one is laughing here. I did wonder why you were not going for someone like skybet, betfred, william hill etc and not using the oddsmatcher. The work is done for you and arbs often come up as it covers even the obscure markets on the footie, not just the win/lose/draw market.

I might be posting this twice as the first post disappeared - apologies if I am duplicating.
Jayboat, hi, I am a novice and a bit of an idiot at times so I may have this totally wrong - but if you laid 60pound on the draw at betfair at 3.95 then as it is 4.1 to back the draw right now at betfair, if you stake 57.80 to BACK the draw then instead of losing 177pounds if it IS a draw you win about 2pounds whatever the outcome. This back bet would also free up your money in betfair and you might be able to lay some of your corners bet off if betfair's corners market is the same as 188bet's.
I am confused asto what you are looking at at betfair that is 9.1 - is that in the corners market.
As I said I am a novice and I maybe I have got it wrong.

[Admin]

I think the problem was he didn't back the draw, he backed a total corners Market. Your quite right though. Anyone who makes such a mistake (especially when laying at high odds) should immediately back / lay the same markets again to minimise their losses. Your almost guaranteed to lose something ( markets rarely drift in your favour under such circumstances unless your name is sharpeshooter but it's better to lose a small amount than a big one
