Spied a good one for all those matched betters out there. On Boylesports Blackburn are 3.6 to win. The lay on Betfair is 3.4 at the moment.
If you bet £50 at Boyle's today you get a £50 free bet. By my reckoning you can make a £1 profit at the current prices and also get the free £50 bet.
I think I will make about £35 today using a free bet. I'm still chipping away at the further free bet offers at Boyle's and Bet365 but this is requiring patience as I don't have the bankroll to do it all at once.
Anyone else got anything on?

The meaningless Spurs v Liverpool game to have more than 3 goals in it @ 8/5.
If this comes off my stake is big enough to have authorities looking into irregular betting patterns.

Went for the wrong sodding meaningless fixture didn't I!
Think I will retire from betting now. It's been fun.

He got 25-1 on a Welsh grand slam, which is pretty damn good odds, I'd have put some money on at that price, then 80-1 on Cardiff...presumably a few rounds ago now!

Going to make another £35 odd quid from the FA cup final today  How? Matching a free bet at the bookies (£50 no stakes returned) with a lay at the betting exchange. At bookies: No goalscorer back £50 @ 9.00 At betting exchange: No goalscorer lay £40.20 @ 10.00 If there is no goalscorer I will make £400 at the bookies and lose £361.81 at the exchange = £38.19 profit If there is a goalscorer I will make £38.19 at the betting exchange (5% commission comes off the lay total of £40.20) and lose nothing at the bookies (free bet) = £38.19 profit. I'm going to lose a little bit on another qualifier bet which will bring today's profit down to around £35.

I'm going to lose a little bit on another qualifier bet which will bring today's profit down to around £35. All those numbers confuse me. I just chucked £40 on Pompey to win (£32 profit). Not bothered if they don't, it just comes out of the cash I've made on Betfair recently.

I still have the odd punt now and again, but it's a good way to make money.
