Can any one tell me what this means ?

My stake at coral is £5. My one at Betfair is £10 (I thought it was £5)

Whats the best outcome for me ?

Ajax to win in coral, Ajax to lose on Betfair

You've had several sites mentioned to you already.

Please stop matched betting until you know what you're doing. It's not something to mess about at. Also the free bets at Coral are SNR, you're throwing them away on such low odds.

Google profit accumulator. Then click on the link. Watch the videos. If you don't understand, then watch again. Sign up for the trial and follow the step by step guide for the first couple you do.

I tried this last night...fucked it right up. No idea what the hell I am doing so ended up ringing them all today closing the accounts

I get it now. Not wasted any free bets. Just wasted my own money being to hasty to start.

Interesting concept. I think the difficulty will be finding things to bet to get the best odds.

If you make a bet for a team to win at a bookies, you then need to make a lay against a win at an exchange i.e Betfair.

Bet for a team to lose is different to laying them not to win.

If you have layed against the win then that will payout if they do anything except win, so if they lose or draw. What you lose at the bookies, you win at the exchange. Minus a small qualifying loss.

As plenty of other have said, you need to read it again, watch the videos mentioned above. Read/watch as many times as you need to before it makes sense. Once you understand what it's telling you to do, then place your first trigger bet by following the instructions carefully. Once you've done a few you'll get the hang of it. If you're still unsure, watch again!

The team profit Facebook newbies page is really helpful too.

I'll join the facebook page :)

Turns out oh cancelled the bet by accident on Betfair. Means I onlyConfused lost my bet on coral.

So as not to use my free bets on coral, i opened an offer with Ladbrokes and placed my first 'trigger' bet. Once thats played out, i will have free bets accross Betfair, coral and Ladbrokes. Hopefully I can claw back a bit of that money I lost in haste this afternoon.
