    £40 of free bets still to use but estimated profit is £155

    I would be close to £300 up if I had never laid a bet though

    Why start a new thread for this when you started one yesterday.
    Why are you obsessed just with profit.
    There are far more important things in life.
    Most successful people keep their financial affairs private.
    As others have implied in the past I dont think you have much in life except this board.
    To be honest I find you boring.
    Can I ask your age,I am 57.

    1) Total profit over the 4 days? £830
    2) Best win/moment? Ivanovich Gorbatov coming 6th today £350 win on the extra place
    3) Best bookie FACT? Not one stands out but ones who have offered extra places at 1/4 of the odds
    4) Best match better FACT? It’s been nice seeing the mixture of the new and the old! The ones who always go day in day out, the ones who came back after some time in the vicinity and the ones who this Cheltenham was their first crack!

    On a side note I am happy to admit it but I could possibly win the biggest balls up. Had quite a tight betfair exchange float today and smarkets crashed before the 2:10 when I was in desperate need of laying off a place bet. So I had to back out a bet on the 4:10 to get the funds to do the 2:10. Anyway I ended up instead of laying back I ended up backing again so basically without realising had £300 @ 2.6 with On the Fringe. So that balls up is my second worst costing me £300 overall.

    The good the bad and the ugly this week for me!

    1) Total profit over the 4 days?

    £703.

    2) Best win/moment?

    Apples Jade or 5th in the 2.10 today, although if Air Horse One had come 5th would have been worth an extra £200ish.

    3) Best bookie FACT?

    Only really used Betvic, Lads and BFSB for the majority of my betting. All were fine, had no staking issues.

    4) Best match better FACT?

    I think Chris makes a good call, alot of newbies posting decent numbers.

    Overall i made just over half of last years efforts, but with only using 6 bookies it was probably a better effort with regards to available offers and time invested. Tried to do every little offer last year and was pretty much burnt out by the end! Said it before but a fresh 365 account would have been a nice addition this week. Next year..

    1) 300
    2) Nothing really – all just guaranteed profit
    3) Sky/betway for their guaranteed offers
    4) @matchedem seems to genuinely know what the score is

    Sky and Betway offers were great, but let’s be honest who lay them and didn’t punt them? The bookies are smart and had me gambling on day 1. Soon reined it in day 2 and 3 to restore order then punted my free bets and had some fun today and ended up £400 to the good.

    Donald Ducked now….

    1- dont actually know but had close to £700 in free bets…

    2- only one punt of the festival, apples jade since mullins had top 2 favs, plus had it for 4/1 and 3/1 offers :). Landing the higher 5 25% boost on the last day of the festival was nice as well 😉

    3- hands down bet365, 4 straight days of the 4/1 offer with 1/4 place terms every race…what more could a mb want?

    4- chris, cracking result on special tiara (i had seen it as well but for some reason never got round to putting it on…)

    No profit figures needed but where are people at looking back on the 4 days….. Hopefully richer and more importantly enjoyed it

    For me-
    I pushed myself from being able to do the maths to being able to profit more on each way arbs
    Loved watching mite bite head towards the tatts bar before winning the race, even if it didn’t profit
    Had 2 great days. Ticked over day 3 where work was more important and Ticked backwards on day 4 where gambling couldn’t make up for work
    Massively missed actually going to the festival

    I had a bad one this year. It just felt very hard to predict anything and it was more about closing your eyes and picking a horse as far as the matched betting offers were concerned. Bookies have definitely tightened up since last year.

    Although I’ve been doing this for around 18 months now, I’m only just really looking at the e/w arbing thing and still finding it a bit hard to get my head around. Just gonna have to take it slow and get there eventually!

    So pleased for everyone as betman says its mad how good we are at this really…if u told anyone else they could make that sort of money from a few days betting (guaranteed) they would be amaysed

    Mite Bite was a great moment wasn’t it what a horse…gold cup 2018? My big regret was a punting one….I backed Labaik in February on the basis it had refused to race its previous 2 races, it reminded me of the great Mad Moose. It lost in Feb easy and I didnt back it at Cheltenham where it won at 25/1 (but was more like 60/1 earlier in the day!)

    1. 758.48 up.
    2. Un de sceaux winning day 3, same race Aso placing 3rd @ 66/1 definitely the highlight for me.
    3. Bet365 because of their 1/4 odds on every race.
    4. Matchedem will always be the best matched bettor?
