There’s a big week of horse racing action to look forward to and you don’t want to miss this The Pools offer. Simply place a total of £30.00+ on horse racing at odds of 4.00 (3/1) or greater and The Pools will give us £5.00 in cash. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us an overall guaranteed profit of £21.00 and here’s how…
Key Terms:
- This offer is available from 00:01 on Monday 6th January 2020 until 23:59 on Sunday 12th January 2020.
- We must place a total of £30.00+ at odds of 4.00 (3/1) or greater.
- This offer is available once per day, per customer.
Qualifying Bets:
If you’re unfamiliar with qualifying bets, please see my Qualifying Bet Strategy page for a walk-through guide on how they should be done.
It’s entirely up to you which races you place your qualifying bets on.
We can lay our qualifying bet(s) at Betfair or Smarkets.
We can calculate our lay stakes using my matched betting calculator.
Aim to lose no more than £2.00 on each of our daily qualifying bets
Cash:
Our £5.00 cash will be credited by 12:00 the day after our qualifying bets are placed. If we take into account our daily qualifying loss of £2.00, this gives us a guaranteed daily profit of £3.00.
Given that the offer runs for 7 days, this gives us an overall guaranteed profit of £21.00 on this The Pools offer!

Guest userCan you just do £30 on one horse?
Matt
234Yes, you just need to stake a total of £30.00 at odds of 4.00 (3/1) or greater. That can be one bet or a number of bets.

Guest userStuck £30 on a horse yesterday and they’ve gubbed me already! They refused to offer my Welsh Grand National free bet recently as well saying that it was invite only. Wouldn’t trust this lot as far as I could throw them. Beware!
Paul
Guest userGubbed an hour after placing bet! Did get my 5 quid today tho
Sleepless
Guest userMultiple Gubbing’s being reported and no £5 forthcoming. Dodgy.

Guest userI was gubbed after one beter with these last year. Bunch of cowboys.
Marcus
Guest userThey only paid me my free bet for the Welsh Grand National after I complained on live chat for 3 days.
Then I had to chase up my free bet for their next promotion. Was gubbed literally 5 minutes after this.
Scam artists – I’m just lucky I never had to withdraw from them.

Guest userSeems like this offer from The Fools was merely an exercise mine-sweeping! Clearing out what they think to be dedicated matched bettors. Gubbing you immediately after you’ve taken up the offer. How callous. Still…..from their perspective, if you don’t regularly use them then go all in on a £30 stake they are bound to be alerted. They definitely set this up as a trap.

Guest userGubbed after 2 bets

Guest userSurprising, they bombard me every day with offers every day. Maybe it’s wise to only do a few of these. Hard to get odds for a good loss anyway. Got decent yesterday tho.

Guest userStrange company. They’ve not given the free bet but my balance is 5 pound more. Offered me a free bet for villa game but it’s not there
Jeff
Guest userPromotion is no longer available on their promotions page. Has it been pulled?
Pavel
Guest userAm I right in thinking that this offer has been cancelled/withdrawn going forward? I can’t find the offer on the site anymore.
Matt
234Yes it looks to have been withdrawn.
