William Hill Price Boost – Mayweather v McGregor

All eyes are on Las Vegas this weekend as Floyd Mayweather fights Conor McGregor and you don’t want to miss this William Hill Price Boost! They’ve enhanced Mayweather to win on points from 5/2 to a tasty 4/1. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a risk-free potential profit of £6.53 and here’s how…

Price Boost:

This price boost will be available from 20:00 on Saturday 26th August 2017 for a limited time only!

The maximum stake for this price boost is likely to be around the £20.00 mark.

We can underlay our bet at Smarkets to make this risk-free. I like to place my exchange lay bets with Smarkets as they have great liquidity, the site is really easy to use and they only charge 2% commission in comparison to the 5% charged by other betting exchanges.

We can calculate our underlay stake using my matched betting calculator. We just need to open up the ‘SHOW ADVANCED’ section and click the ‘UNDERLAY’ tab…

As you can see, the calculator tells us that our lay stake should be £20.41…

Place £20.00 on Mayweather on points @ 5.00 = Potential profit of £80.00

Smarkets logo

Lay £20.41 on Mayweather Jr Points @ 4.60 = Potential liability of £73.47

Let’s have a look at our profit/loss for the two potential outcomes…

Mayweather wins on points + £80.00 – £73.47 = £6.53 profit
Mayweather doesn’t win on points – £20.00 + £20.00 (£20.41 minus 2% commission) = £0.00

So, if Mayweather doesn’t win on points, we’ll break even and there’s no harm done. However, if Mayweather does win on points we’ll make a nice risk-free profit of £6.53 on this William Hill offer!
