Coral Offer – US Open 2017

The US Open 2017 gets underway today and Coral are getting in on the action. Simply place five in play bets of £5.00+ on any US Open 2017 match markets and Coral will give us a £5.00 free bet to be used in play on the action. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a guaranteed profit of £35.00 and here’s how…

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.

We can qualify for one free bet each day of the tournament.

To qualify for each free bet, we must place five in play bets of £5.00+ on any US Open 2017 markets. With this in mind, it’s probably a good idea to stick to the Match Odds markets. Qualifying bets must be placed between 00:01 and 23:59 each day and there is no minimum odds requirement.

I like to place my exchange lay bets with Smarkets as they have great liquidity, the site is really easy to use and they only charge 2% commission in comparison to the 5% charged by other betting exchanges.

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

Aim to lose no more than £0.20 on each of our qualifying bets

We should therefore lose around £1.00 in qualifying for each £5.00 free bet.

Free Bets:

Our £5.00 free in play bet will be credited upon placement of our fifth qualifying bet and will be valid for 48 hours. Free bets must be used on any in play tennis market and free bet stakes are not included in any returns.

By using straightforward matched betting, we should be able to extract at least 70% of each £5.00 free in play bet, so approximately £3.50. If we take into consideration our daily qualifying loss of £1.00, we should make a guaranteed daily profit of £2.50.

Given that the tournament is played over 14 days, between Monday 28th August 2017 and Sunday 10th September 2017, this gives us a guaranteed overall profit of £35.00 on this Coral offer!
