Boylesports Offer – Community Shield 2015

The stage is set for the Community Shield 2015 today and you won’t want to miss this Boylesports offer!  Simply place a £20.00 pre-match MOBILE bet on Arsenal v Chelsea and get a £10.00 free bet to be used in-play on the same game.  Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a guaranteed profit of £7.45 and here’s how…

 

Qualifying Bet:

If you’re unfamiliar with qualifying bets, please see my Qualifying Bet Strategy page for a walkthrough guide on how to place your qualifying bets.

Our qualifying pre-match bets must be placed via MOBILE and on the match odds market (Win-Draw-Win).  Having looked at the odds on offer, I’ve opted to place my qualifying bet on Chelsea.

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 lay stakes using the matched betting calculator.

Place £20.00 on Chelsea with Boylesports @ 2.60 = Potential profit of £32.00

Lay £19.85 on Chelsea with Smarkets @ 2.64 = Potential liability of £32.55

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

Chelsea win +£32.00 – £32.55 = £0.55 loss
Chelsea don’t win -£20.00 + £19.45 = £0.55 loss

So regardless of the result of the match, we will lose £0.55 in qualifying for our £10.00 free in-play bet.

 

Free Bet:

By using straightforward matched betting, we should be able to extract 80% out of the £10.00 free bet as cash, so £8.00.  If we take into account our qualifying loss of £0.55, this gives us a guaranteed profit of £7.45!

If you’re not sure how to extract 80% of the £10.00 free bet, please see my Free Bet Strategy page for a walkthrough guide on how it should be done.
