The World Matchplay Darts 2017 is underway and Ladbrokes are getting in on the action! Simply place a Correct Score bet on the opening match of each session and if it loses, Ladbrokes will refund our stake as a free bet, up to a maximum of £10.00. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a potential profit of £100.00+ and here’s how…
Qualifying Bet:
If you’re unsure about how to place qualifying bets, check out my Qualifying Bet Strategy page for a walk-through guide on how it should be done.
Qualifying bets must be placed 06:00 on the day each session takes place, to be eligible.
Losing stakes are refunded as a free bet, so ordinarily we would treat this as a risk-free offer. Unfortunately though, the Correct Score market is a little obscure and so the liquidity tends to be lacking.
I’ve therefore decided to treat this as a speculative offer. We can just place our qualifying bets on a selection of our choice and let them run as value bets without laying. If our back bet wins, we’ll have made a nice profit, otherwise we can just extract 80% from each £10.00 free bet refund and take a £2.00 loss.
Having looked at the odds available for Jelle Klaasen v Justin Pipe, I’ve opted to place my qualifying bet on 10-7 to Jelle Klaasen.
Place £10.00 on 10-7 Klaasen @ 8.00 = Potential profit of £70.00
So, if Jelle Klaasen wins the match 10-7, we’ll have made a nice profit of £70.00. Any other outcome and we’ll have made a loss of £2.00. Risking £2.00 to make a profit of £70.00 gives us effective odds of 36.00, so given that Jelle Klaasen is odds of 8.00 to win the match 10-7, this is a very profitable offer in the long run.
If our selection loses, our free bet will be credited within 24 hours and will be valid for 7 days.
This offer is available on the opening match of each session, so I’ll update the following table with my selections throughout the tournament…
| Match | Selection | Odds | Potential Loss | Potential Profit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Klaasen v Pipe | 10-7 Klaasen | 8.00 | £2.00 | £70.00 |
| Chisnall v King | 10-6 Chisnall | 7.50 | £2.00 | £65.00 |
| Whitlock v K. Anderson | 10-8 Whitlock | 8.00 | £2.00 | £70.00 |
| Suljovic v Pipe | 11-7 Suljovic | 8.00 | £2.00 | £70.00 |
| Chisnall v Norris | 11-7 Chisnall | 8.00 | £2.00 | £70.00 |
| Gurney v Suljovic | 16-11 Gurney | 12.00 | £2.00 | £110.00 |
| Norris v Lewis | 16-12 Lewis | 10.00 | £2.00 | £90.00 |
| Gurney v Wright | 17-13 Wright | 10.00 | £2.00 | £90.00 |
* Unfortunately I ended the tournament without a win and with a loss of £16.00, having been one or two legs out on 5 of the 8 bets placed. That’s the way it goes sometimes, but it’s still a very profitable offer long-term and hopefully we’ll see it again some time soon. *
