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 Man City, West Ham and Bournemouth all to win their respective fixtures tonight. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a risk-free potential profit of £14.89 and here’s how…

Price Boost bet:

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

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

Customers Price
0 5/2
500 11/4
5000 3/1
10000 10/3
20000 7/2
35000 4/1
50000 9/2
75000 5/1
100000 11/2

At the time of writing, the boosted odds are 10/3 (4.333) 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 9/2 (5.50) 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…

Place £10.00 on Man City, West Ham & Bournemouth all to win @ 5.50 = Potential profit of £45.00

Smarkets logo

Lay £10.21 on ‘Will Bournemouth, West Ham & Man City all win on Tuesday, December 4th? – Yes’ @ 3.95 = Potential liability of £30.11

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

Treble wins + £45.00 – £30.11 = £14.89 profit
Treble doesn’t win – £10.00 + £10.00 (£10.21 minus 2% 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 £14.89 on this Sky Bet offer!

* The accumulator reached odds of 6.00 (5/1). All three teams won their respective fixtures, resulting in a profit of £19.89 on this Sky Bet price boost. *
