As a rough guide, limit your qualifying loss to around £1 and aim for £24 cash (80%) from your £30 in free bets. Based on those figures, you should make a £23 profit on this 888sport offer.

can you also use this route?

Bet £10 @ 14 (which becomes 42) so £420 if it wins
Lay £10.41 @ 13.5 which means a £130.12 liability

Sorry a continuation;
If the horse wins you get £420 minus the £130.12 you’ve lost on Betfair = £289.88 profit
If the horse loses you lose your £10 bet but win £10.41 on Betfair minus your 5% commission is £9.88 so loss of £12p.

The above is using the horses you selected, by going for a horse which is more favoured to win (ie smaller odds) you’ll obviously get a smaller profit if it wins but it’ll be much larger than the £20.37 you’ll get going with you method.

Your method does guarantee a win though. Let me know if I’ve done something stupid in my methodoligy.

  Hi Jon, your strategy is fine if that’s the way you want to play it. All you’re effectively doing though is gambling your £20.00 guaranteed profit on a 14/1 shot to win £280.00+.
  
  The way I see it, if you put £20.00 on 4 different horses at 3/1, on average you’ll win £60.00 once and lose £20.00 three times and therefore break even.
  
  The beauty of matched betting is that we can make risk-free profits and beat the bookies so I’d be banking the £20.00 profit every time, but as long as you cover your stake and you don’t stand to lose money, there’s no reason why you can’t play it that way mate.

How do you calculate how much you lay on this deal? Can’t quite get my head round this one?

  Hi Owen. You just need to work out your treble odds. Then all you need to do is enter your treble back odds and the exchange lay odds into the matched betting calculator to get your lay stake.

Hi there, before my question, loving the tutorials, I believe you are changing lives – thankyou!

OK now to my question. I don’t understand how the Casino bonus works, if you have to wager 40 times the bonus does that mean that you get a tenner to play with but have to use £400 of your own money before you can withdraw any winnings? Doesn’t seem that tempting 😉

Cheers!

  Thanks, Chuck, much appreciated!
  
  No, you don’t need to use your own money. You just need to wager your £10.00 bonus 40 times. Say, for example, you play through your £10.00 bonus once, and your bonus balance becomes £20.00. You’ve wagered £10.00 of the £400.00 requirement, meaning you have £390.00 left to wager. Once you wager your £20.00 bonus balance, you would have £370.00 of wagering left.
  
  You simply keep using your bonus balance until you lose it all or meet the £400.00 wagering requirement. Upon completing the wagering requirement, your bonus balance would be converted into withdrawable cash, up to £500.00.
  
  I hope that helps.

As soon as I tried to deposit, I received a message saying “your account is not eligible for a bonus”. Same thing happened on Smarkets…

Any reason why this happens? (Other sites have been fine)

  Which deposit method are you using? The promotion is not available to customers making their first deposit via PayPal, Muchbetter, Paysafe Card, Neteller or Skrill.
  
  If you’re trying to deposit via debit card and having no joy, I would be inclined to contact them and ask for more information on why you’re not eligible. I would do the same with Smarkets, too.
  
  I hope that helps.

    Yep it was debit card! I asked Smarkets at the time and they just fobbed me off with nonsense. I’m suspecting it could be to do with me being on a VPN (through work).

      Ah, possibly. You’ll have to try without the VPN and see if you’re able to register without any problems.
