Tour Championship 2019 Snooker Offer – Betfred

It’s the second Semi-Final of the Tour Championship 2019 on Friday and you don’t want to miss this Betfred ‘Bet £10, Get £5’ offer! Place a bet of £10.00 or more on Mark Allen v Neil Robertson and Betfred will give us a £5.00 free bet to use on Saturday. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a guaranteed profit of £3.59 and here’s how…

Key Terms:

  • We must place our bet at odds of 1.50 (1/2) or greater.
  • Minimum stake of £10.00.
  • Qualifying bets must be placed on Mark Allen v Neil Robertson (13:00) on Friday 22nd March 2019.

Qualifying Bet:

If you’re unfamiliar with qualifying bets, please see my Qualifying Bet Strategy page for a walk-through guide on how it should be done.

Having looked at the odds available, we could place our qualifying bet on Neil Robertson in the Match Result market.

At the time of writing, laying our bet at Betfair gives us the smallest qualifying loss.

We can calculate our lay stakes using my matched betting calculator…

As you can see, the calculator tells us that our lay stake should be £10.10…

Place £10.00 on Neil Robertson @ 1.727 = Potential profit of £7.27

Betfair logo

Lay £10.10 on Neil Robertson @ 1.76 = Potential liability of £7.67

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

Outcome Bookie Exchange Profit/Loss
Neil Robertson wins +£7.27 -£7.67 £0.40 loss
Neil Robertson doesn’t win -£10.00 +£9.59 £0.41 loss

So, regardless of the outcome, we’ll lose a maximum of £0.41 in qualifying for our £5.00 free bet.

Free Bet:

Our £5.00 free bet should be credited by 12:00 on Saturday 23rd March 2019 and will be valid until 09:00 on Monday 25th March 2019.

By using straightforward matched betting, we should be able to extract 80% cash from our £5.00 free bet, so £4.00. If we take into account our maximum qualifying loss of £0.41, this gives us a guaranteed profit of £3.59 on this Betfred offer!

* Neil Robertson won the match 10-6, resulting in a profit of £3.60 on this Betfred offer. *
