Regarding Coral half-time winner offer. I placed a bet on Atl Madrid but it didn’t trigger the offer since they didn’t lead the 1st half. Can I qualify for the next event Barcelona v Bayern Munich (Fri 20:00) or Man City v Lyon (Sat 20:00)?

Hi Matt,

Maybe you are aware of this but on some of your reload pages when you click continue the page just scrolls quickly to the bottom without allowing you to read it. Only happened since monday’s new format. Great site though.

  Hi Bruce. I’m not aware of this issue actually and I can’t seem to replicate it.
  
  Is this a mobile issue or desktop? Can I ask what browser you’re using and if it’s a mobile issue, what model of phone you have.
  
  Thanks.

  I’m hoping to add a guide for accumulator offers at some point.
  
  You may find my laying multiples guide useful for the Acca Freedom offer. Depending on the odds, you could boost a treble at William Hill and lay it at Smarkets.

Hi Matt,

Just an idea. Is it worth doing a page for the different promos companies do for free £1/£2/£5 bets? I think mansion do 3-2-win, another one is 1-2-free (Ladbrokes), Virgin have a great little quiz too. These weekly promos can easily add up to a free £5 bet a week. Worth collating?

Also, unrelated note – any advice on how to get close back/lay odds on a five part free bet?

Thanks, as ever, for all your work posting offers!

  Hi Michael, you’re welcome!
  
  I have considered having a dedicated page for the free competitions bookmakers run but I think I’ll keep them here for now.
  
  When placing free bets on multiples, I would say the process is much the same as a single bet. Just look for low back and lay odds that are close. With there being so many selections, the low odds should add up nicely, though the final back and lay odds are likely to be a little way apart. Compared to single bets you probably won’t be able to convert the free bet into quite as much cash.
  
  I hope that helps.

Keep up the good work mate, I made 5k in my first year, had a year off and am now back at it for fun and a little extra cash!

Your blog is perfect for me as I no longer make enough to justify the odds monkey fee, but still want to make a few quid!

Thanks Matt!

Hi Matt, love your content.

I am curious about two things – I am currently with OddsMonkey, which are fine but don’t appear to have a good daily boosts thread, do you know of one that is not premium subscription?

And do you know of any benefit of going with Profit Squirrel VIP service – it seems to me that they just take the place of the finder tools.

Thank You

Russell.

  Thanks, @russbet9, much appreciated!
  
  OddsMonkey do have a daily boosts thread actually. Here’s the link trail…
  
  Community > Reload Offers > Boosts > Price Boosts (CHAT / NO CHAT)
  
  I don’t think Profit Squirrel’s VIP service interests me personally. I’ve not used it, but I’ve seen mixed reviews. You already have an OddsMonkey subscription, so I think I would stick with that.
  
  I hope that helps.

BetUK are offering 5.5 on Arsenal to win by 2 goals or more vs Nottingham Forest. Am I missing something by thinking the bet can be laid on the Asian handicap market @ -1.5, with odds of 1.76? Seems too good to be true.

  That would be the correct lay market, Boris. I didn’t see the boost myself, though, and you’re right; it sounds a bit too good to be true.

Hi. Quick question.

I have been gubbed with Hills and Paddy online. Am I able to go into the shops and do their promtions without connecting to my online accounts? If so is there a process I need to follow?

  I think that depends on the nature of the in-shop offers, Tony. Not all in-shop offers require you to connect to your online account, so you may be able to do some.
