I had to. I was getting jittery at the thought of no chat support for tonights match

Ok Betway have a free fiver for every goal your team scores if you bet either Arsenal or Chelsea. Qualifying loss on Arsenal is £1.67 - gotta be worth a go? They'll score one won't they?

And Ladbrokes are doing free bet on Ar/ch if you bet on certain markets, lose and it ends up a draw. I can't see the OM spreadsheet on my phone - any ideas on how to lay?

If you've not signed up to 888 yet, there's currently a great deal where for just a ten pound qualifying bet you can get forty pounds worth of free bets plus a ten pound casino bonus! It wasn't mentioned on the oddsmonkey guide page, and in my experience only sometimes appears on Google so it's worth trying to search a few times if you don't find it straight away.one search for example showed me 30 pounds of free bets and a five pound casino bonus.

Also, to try some bingo or slots sites risk free, you can go via topcashback. I found kitty bingo has 20 pounds cash back through them but you only need to deposit ten. And you might even make a greater profit (I didn't!)

I always forget about the darn cash back sites! I bet I could've got money back when I signed up to PP last week!!

www.sunbets.co.uk/tennis Place a £25 bet on someone to win (Lay it as normal) and hope they win at least 1 straight set.

Does anyone know if paddy power are doing 2up for the FA cup final tomorrow?

Not been on for a few days, started the what's app group and have added everyone who PMEd me, if anyone else wants adding just PM me your number.

@Louise Paddy still have the 2 up on the last few matches, once you click on the match it'll have a red MBS near the odds.

Ladbrokes refunds offers can be turned into risk free or guaranteed profit, there's a sordid sheet on Oddsmonkey forums that you can download and tells you extaly what to do. But essentially it involves backing/laying your chosen team, and also laying against a draw. Spread sheet gives you a choice between going riskfree, with two if outcomes gaining and losing nothing, but a third gaining say a tenner, or you can lay in a way that means you'd be guaranteed two quid profit no matter the outcome.

I've said a few times about tennis but will say again in case people planning to do tennis hadn't seen, it's important you know the returning rules of the bookie you are using, and the retiring rules of the exchange, and that both the bookie and the exchange use the same retiring rules as you could lose a lot of money if they don't.

I've made about £90-£100 this week so far, mix of casino offers and free bets from William hill Bet club etc. I have a load of free spins and also coral, sky, will hill and paddy power free bets to get next week.

Also made £30 profit using Jackpot Joy and the loophole from odds monkey but have to wait 30 days for bonus infer to be removed so haven't included that in profits for this week and have added them for June's tally :)

I've abandoned it all completely the last couple of days to enjoy the weather (I have the sunburn to prove it).

Not a single bet on for the weekend either which is a bit depressing 😣

Anyone found any good enhanced bets for the cup final today?

I'm struggling to find good ones. A couple have free bets if it ends in a draw at 90 mins (Ladbrokes was one, can't remember the other) and William Hill sent me an email with enhanced odds for both teams to score in the first half - but I'm not sure that's a market at Betfair.

888 have an offer where if you deposit with the code weekend20 and place a bet of £20+ you get a free bet of £5. You can do that today and tomorrow.

188 also have money back if it goes to extra time. The Oddsmonkey forums talk about locking in profit with these types of offers by placing a series of bets, but I can't make sense of it at all.

No good ones here either. I'm surprised there hasn't been more for the French open starting tomorrow either.

Betfred are doing buy 3 get 1 free today - place 3 in play bets on cup finals and get a free bet worth your average stake. Not sure I'll do this one - will see what the inplay odds are like (needs to be 1.5 minimum)

I've had an email from Stan James offering a fiver for each successful leg of a four fold Acca on the FA, Scottish cups, champ and div 1 playoffs. As they're all at different times I'll give this one a go and lay sequentially.

Free Sky Vegas scratchcard. I won bugger all, as usual!

I got £2 from that one earlier.

Didn't win anything on the sky scratchcard either! The Stan James offer is an interesting one but not sure I understand accumulators well enough to go for that. Think I'm going to study those over the summer so I'm good to go once the football season starts up.

I'm not too sure on accas either so all I'm doing is covering my potential losses at each leg and adding on a few quid for the commission and a bit of profit!

I think this might actually be a way to guarantee a profit regardless of the outcome actually... I'll see and report back.

Have you put it in the Acca finder on OM titchy? The way of ensuring profit is by clicking on the 'Lock in' option.

Nope! It wasn't a 'get your money back if one leg fails' so the calculator wouldn't have worked.

I just lay against Celtic, so lost £9.50 liability on that one, then layed on Chelsea and have just gained £33 on that, so my £20 acca's dead meaning my losses are £29.50 but my gain is £33 less £1.50 commission so a £2 profit. And at least free fiver from Stan James, possibly more.

I've have an email from Skybet saying they're paying 5 places instead of 4 with horse racing. Can anyone tell me what that actually means?

NeegansWife If you bet on a horse each way you get a bit of money back if it gets a place. 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th. With the extra places they will also pay if you get in 5th place. There is a way to exploit extra places offers, but it's a bit too advanced for me at the moment, and it's not good value as you are basically hoping the horse comes 5th.

It might be good for a mug bet though if you can find close enough odds?

Ah, right, thanks MrsWombat, a bit too advanced for me too. I'm still working my way through the sign up offers but I'm being bombarded with emails from bookies. Unless its offering me a free bet/spins it may as well be in double-dutch!!!! I'm trying to stick to finishing the sign ups, with the exception of the Coral and Sky bet clubs and any free bets or spins I'm offered in the meantime.

This thread is fantastic though, I'd heard about matched betting before but MN gave me the push I needed to give it a try. I'm over £400 up now and the confidence boost is amazing. Also time doing this has stopped me frivolously spending on internet shopping so it's saved me money there too. Bonus!
