Crowd Boosted Accumulator – Sky Bet

It wouldn’t be a big night of Premier League and Championship football without a Sky Bet Crowd Boosted Accumulator! They’re enhancing the odds on Wolves, Leicester and Leeds all to win their respective fixtures tonight. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a risk-free potential profit of £13.40 and here’s how…

Price Boost bet:

The maximum stake will vary per customer, but is likely to be £10.00.

We must place our bet on the pre-packaged Crowd Boosted Accumulator between 15:00 on Monday 25th February 2019 and 19:45 (kick-off) on Tuesday 26th February 2019.

The more customers that bet on the Crowd Boosted Accumulator, the bigger the odds for everyone as follows…

Customers Price
0 11/2
500 6/1
5000 13/2
10000 7/1
20000 15/2
50000 8/1
75000 17/2
100000 9/1

At the time of writing, the boosted odds are 13/2 (7.50) but the odds should improve further yet if enough people get involved. If the odds increase, so too will our potential profit. I’ll use odds of 17/2 (9.50) in the following example and I’ll update the bottom of the post with the actual odds after the matches have been played.

At the time of writing, laying our bet with Smarkets gives us the biggest risk-free potential profit.

We can find the acca market via the following link trail…

Smarkets > Football > Accumulators > Tuesday

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 £10.21…

Place £10.00 on Wolves, Leicester & Leeds to win @ 9.50 = Potential profit of £85.00

Smarkets logo

Lay £10.21 on ‘Wolverhampton Wanderers, Leicester City & Leeds United all win on Tuesday, February 26th – Yes’ @ 8.00 = Potential liability of £71.60

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

Outcome Bookie Exchange Profit/Loss
Treble wins +£85.00 -£71.60 £13.40 profit
Treble doesn’t win -£10.00 +£10.00 £0.00

So, if our treble doesn’t win, we’ll break even and there’s no harm done. However, if our treble does win, we’ll make a nice risk-free profit of £13.40 on this Sky Bet offer!

* The crowd boosted accumulator reached odds of 9.00. Leicester were the only team to win their respective fixture, resulting in break even on this Sky Bet price boost. *
