    You can actually guarantee yourself a £3.15 profit on this (every little helps!) as follows:

    £10 on 0-0 @9.0 returns £90 cash and £80 free bets
    Assume 80% extraction of £80 free bets = £64
    £90 + £64 = £154
    Therefore implied odds of 0-0 are £154 / 10 (stake) = 15.4

    Take this, and the current lay odds of 11.5 for 0-0 on Smarkets (don’t back AND lay on Betfair 😉 ) and plug them into Matt’s calculator and you will see that you guaranteed £3.17 either way.

    Yes, Betfair will no doubt be keeping an eye on people backing 0-0 under this promo, but you should be alright.

    You could even combine tonys bet with the ladbrokes exchange 4 points (£100) for a free bet from the other thread and claim another £25 ?

    Has anyone landed one of these I haven’t tried one yet as they seem very difficult to win

    current record I’ve done 15 of them @ a total £27.83 loss. Won £43.74 (approx 80% of the £55 free bet) on Sunday, plus also further laid one a few weeks ago to guarantee myself £20 profit (which would have lost otherwise!)

    Some bookies have a halftime/fulltime market so worth checking odds to see if your pick is likely to win money back. For example on paddy for West Ham/Liverpool 0-0/1-0 is 14/1, so good pick. 0-0/2-0 is 33/1 so expect to do 40 of these offers before you land one on scores like 2-0. 0-0/1-1 is 14/1 and 1-1/1-1 is 22/1 so added I don’t know some between 7/1 and 11/1 chance of getting money back on 1-1…

    0-0 at 8/1 in general in my opinion will see you get money back more than any other score.

    I’ve done three. I backed 0-0 on City v Leicester, as the back and lay were tight – made £6 profit. I lost another one, losing perhaps £1.50, and won another one, laying it off when it was a draw at half time – won about £30 on that – but a few others here made about £60 on it, as they didn’t lay it off at HT.

    I’ve done 5 games and won 2.

    £48 from the £55, Chelsea vs Man U, 1-1 @ 6.5
    £70 from the £75, West Ham vs Aston Villa 2-0 @ 8.5

    I could have layed the Watford vs Chelsea game as I had 0-1 but the odds had swung too much to make it worthwhile.

    Still not sure what result to go for tonight.

    Thanks Tony, I’m so sick of losing qualifying bets on these, they’ve added up and haven’t had a winner yet, am using 2 accounts too like so double the loses. Going to do 2 0-0s tonight to claw back some.

    current 0-0 on Liverpool West Ham 9.5/11 lay £10.20, and your potential profit is down £17 but your not risking anything.

    dmc,I am somewhat reluctant to do 0-0 too often as regularly doing that could be a market of a matched better.
    Just an early evening mull.
