Coral Free Bet Offer – The Players Championship Golf

It’s another Coral Free Bet offer!   Place a £10.00 bet on The Players Championship outright before the tournaments tees off and Coral will give us a £10.00 Free Bet to use in-play.  Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a minimum guaranteed profit of £7.05.  And here’s how…

Step 1:

Having looked at the odds available, I’ve decided to place my bet on Adam Scott to win.

coral

Place £10.00 on Adam Scott @ 19.00 = Potential profit of £180.00.

betfair

Lay £9.52 on Adam Scott @ 20.00 = Potential liability of £180.88.

Step 2:

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

Adam Scott wins +£180.00 – £180.88 = £0.88 loss
Adam Scott doesn’t win -£10.00 + £9.05 (£9.52 minus 5% commission) = £0.95 loss

So regardless of the outcome, we will lose a maximum of £0.95 in order to claim our free £10.00 in-play bet.

Step 3:

Our account will be credited with the free bet at 1:00pm on Thursday 8th May 2014 and expires at the end of the tournament.  By using straightforward matched betting, we should be able to extract at least 80% of the free bet, so approximately £8.00.  If we take into consideration our initial maximum loss of £0.95, we should make a guaranteed minimum profit of £7.05 on this offer.
