Sky Bet Offer – Crowd Boosted Accumulator

It wouldn’t be a big night of Premier League football without a Sky Bet Crowd Boosted Accumulator! They’re enhancing the odds on Chelsea, Burnley and Watford all to win their respective fixtures tonight. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a risk-free potential profit of £34.16 and here’s how…

Price Boost bet:

The maximum stake for this price boost is likely to be around the £25.00 mark.

Qualifying bets must be placed between 08:00 and 19:45 on Tuesday 12th December 2017, to be eligible.

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

Customers Price
0 9/1
1000 10/1
5000 11/1
10000 12/1
15000 13/1
25000 14/1
35000 15/1
50000 16/1
75000 17/1
100000 18/1

At the time of writing, the boosted odds are 10/1 (11.00) 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 14/1 (15.00) in the following example and I’ll update the bottom of the post with the actual odds after the matches have been played.

We can underlay this accumulator via the Betfair Exchange acca market to make this offer risk-free…

Place £25.00 on Chelsea, Burnley & Watford to win @ 15.00 = Potential profit of £350.00

betfair

Lay £26.32 on Chelsea/Burnley/Watford @ 13.00 = Potential liability of £315.84

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

Treble wins + £350.00 – £315.84 = £34.16 profit
Treble doesn’t win – £25.00 + £25.00 (£26.32 minus 5% commission) = £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 £34.16 on this Sky Bet offer!

* The price reached 16/1 (17.00) with the lay odds at 14.50, but unfortunately Watford were the only team not to win their respective fixture, resulting in break even on this Sky Bet offer. *
