B365 no lay
-
Following on from Dan87 post about e/w arbing without laying after being restricted, I’ve been doing this on my B365 account since February this year.
I was restricted to pretty small stakes at the end of last year and thought that was it for my B365 account. Then a few months later, I read a post by Fog (who I definitely owe a beer to for highlighting this and Edge to me and others on the forum!) about how he’d be doing ok out of small value bets on B365 and thought I’d have a go.
I’m meant to be doing some work this afternoon but instead I’ve been procrastinating watching Wimbledon and working out some stats.
I started on the 4th Feb ’17 with £50 (with hindsight this probably wasn’t enough but I got lucky at the start)..
I’ve placed 319 bets – 259 each way (102 won or placed) and 60 singles (10 won). 318 of the bets were on horses and one £1 bet on the NFL (which lost). I pretty much always go for the max stake.
Total stakes were £1,818 and total return £2,323 (+£505).
Of which, the total each way stakes were £1,622 and total return £2,130 (+£508).
And, the total single stakes were £196 and total return £193 (-£3)In that time I’ve also had 6 ITV refunds, total refund £40.28. So total profit £545.
I’m not sure how much time I spend doing it, not a massive amount though, maybe 20 minutes on Saturday morning and 10 minutes sporadically here and there.
I enjoy it anyway but it feel like it’s not bad use of my time.
I’ve been betting and not laying with my Betfair account too but I haven’t worked out the stats on that one yet..
