    To answer your question mirrorball, I have no intention of stopping free discussion on any subject unless it is potentially detrimental to the blog. I am 100% in favour of you guys helping each other out. I’ve drawn a line at using the forum as a marketplace to sell services and the guys have accepted that, for which I am grateful.

    Yes it’s a far better offer than their previous welcome offer and hopefully it’ll stick around. Like you say, it’s well worth signing up to Betsafe for the Man City free bet offer on every league game. Hoping they’ll run their Six Nations offer again too!

    It’s an exclusive offer that has been given to a select number of sites, including tipsters. Is there any particular reason you’ve typed L*dbrokes instead of Ladbrokes?

    Be careful laying Paddy Power offers with Betfair following their merger…

    Nicely done FOG, though I think people will need to edit the bookie stake field from time to time. I’m actually in the process of putting together a calculator for these enhanced odds offers as they seem to popping up every week now!

    I was wondering how long it would be before someone asked that!

    I’m all for people discussing matched betting and helping each other out, but I draw the line at people using it as a marketplace to profit from affiliating or selling products or services. Anyone found doing so from this point onwards will be removed.

    I find it particularly disrespectful, given that my site is completely free to use.

    Come on guys, behave…

    I think we need to be careful with these enhanced trebles guys…

    ‘If the sum of the rule 4’s add up to 15p+ the market will be settled as a SP treble. If any of the selections are non runners the bet will revert to a SP double.’

    Therefore, there are no guarantees that we will get paid out at the enhanced price and so we could get ourselves into difficulty…

    Probably best just to leave it or do it as a value bet, rather than laying them sequentially.

    (Potential returns on treble) / Lay odds – commission

    So if you staked £50.00…

    £50.00 x 7.50 = £375.00

    £375.00 / (Lay odds – 0.02).

    Looking at around £30.00+ but it’s more profitable long-term to underlay it for £120ish…

    Great spot Tony! I don’t think I’ve seen a ‘sequential lay’ offer with as big a potential profit!

    Guys, you’ve forgotten to add your stake of £25.00 to your first loss of £48.98. If Pass the Time doesn’t win, you’ll have lost £25.00. There’s nothing in this.

    Hi guys. I got in touch with Smarkets and here is their response…

    “Our main priority for the last 12 months has been site stability. As we continue to grow it is a constant challenge to keep up with the number of users that are using the site. This weekend was a very poor showing on our front and whilst it is of no comfort to the users that were affected this weekend, the site had been stable for the past two months.

    We are working hard to make the site as stable as possible. A lot of work in the past three months has been done on making the site scalable. This project should be coming to a close in the next few weeks and we should see the benefits from then on.”

    It’s good to hear that they’ve spent a lot of time making the site scalable, as once that project is complete, it should enable them to grow and handle the increasing number of users much more efficiently. Fingers crossed guys!
