Betway offer was good for me, I won the bet your way so £17.50 back from a £5 bet, £4 on the free spins and a £5FB to use Smile

I'm having a totally shit week. I'm finding it really hard to deal with and wondered if I might be better taking a week off? I've a lot else going on and could do with the head space! I know I don't have to ask for permission but would appreciate your thoughts...

Great news @YesQueen! I made £8.76 after locking in the underlay for GG so not too different (before things started going south!).

What went wrong thefavourite. Do you mean with matched betting? Or something unrelated.

I’m a crap matched bettor I’ve decided. I never get the bit of luck needed with gg, or horses in the spare place. I’m just recycling the same money! Some in, some out. Pissed off I’ve lost bet365, that was about the only lucrative account.

Yes, sorry for being vague. I just can't find my mojo this week. I'm tired so I keep making mistakes and I'm on a bit of a losing run at lr casino. I've done loads of different offers and bets however I've about broken even and am usually about £50 up by a Wednesday!

I have some other work on (non matched betting related) that will net me a couple of hundred pounds so I'm thinking of taking the next few days off and diverting my attention there and replacing any expected matched betting funds lost with this money instead. I know I don't help myself by having a target to meet each week so there's a constant pressure.

I'm feeling the same @thefavourite. I'm on holiday from work and can't find the motivation this week, not helped by the fact quite a few of my new offers seem to involve accumulators which I haven't got my head around yet.
I'm also waiting on money going back into my account from a few bookmakers which has slowed me down this week.

DonkeyScramble · 17/04/2019 18:31

I hit £5k profit today as had a casino win on the train home of £230! Not bad for less than 4 months.

I've started dabbling with 2-Up but only £50-100. I can't take the QL for larger amouts as it freaks me out. Also worried it'll look odd to jump to £400 bets.

Golden0ldie · 17/04/2019 23:52

Well done Donkey, that’s amazing!

I think you’re right to take a few days off favourite. If you aren’t enjoying it and can’t see the wood for the trees then some time to clear your head sounds like a good idea.

Has anyone done the Lottoland offer? TCB giving back £20 if you spend £10.01 (don’t forget the .01) on scratch or lotto but not slots. Even if you lose the £10.01, you’re up £9.99. Can’t get motivated to do it as scratch cards never ever have anything on them when I scatch them! It only lasts a couple more days.

I got a GG tonight! Only Liverpool who were short odds and only £8.89 but better than a QL of £1.60. Keep an eye on Bethard for their Easter promo. Giving cash back if you bet a certain amount on some days. It’s been good for me but don’t want to kill them so am trying not to crack the egg every day.

thefavourite · 18/04/2019 00:08

Do you mean 2up @Golden?? If so, well done!

I am feeling much sunnier tonight. I've been pissing about most of the evening and am ending the day +£28, running approx. total of £48 for the week with 2 x £10 free bets to place tomorrow so I'm back on track, yahoo!

I did Bethard tonight (inplay CL match) and it gave me £10 cashback instead of £5!!

I will go and look at Lottoland now before bed!

Golden0ldie · 18/04/2019 09:20

Oops, yes 2up! Nice one from Bethard! They only gave me £5 though ... boo!

bluemumsbluedog · 19/04/2019 13:42

Just done monster casino and mfortune opening offers, up £61

Golden0ldie · 19/04/2019 20:19

Nice one blue. Are those offers on OM casino? I haven’t doje any from there yet. I did do the ComeOn wager £20 and get free spins offer the other night. BJ wouldn’t load so wagered on Bloodsuckers and was up £14. Only got 20p from 30 free spins.

bluemumsbluedog · 20/04/2019 12:01

@Golden0ldie I'm going through the Oddsmonkey easy offers at the moment no deposit required

DonkeyScramble · 21/04/2019 22:13

Trying to keep my Bet365 account healthy as I've been doing 2-ups and winning so deliberately picked a sure losing team today. It only bloody won!

Overnunder · 21/04/2019 23:08

Did you have Crystal Palace Donkey. Oh, how I wish I had backed them! I did get a 2up from Everton but held on hoping for an equaliser and then it was too late. Oh well.

Paintingtheroseswhite · 25/04/2019 10:36

Hi everyone

Can I join in, I've been matched betting for 7 weeks and Ive made about 350 which I'm pleased with.

Can I also shamelessly ask for some help because I think I've screwed up a bit.

I signed up to LVbet for their 50% uplift on first deposit offer. Deposited £50 and it added £25 but put everything in the bonus folder and you have to now turn the £75 over 15 times on multiples to be able to withdraw anything.

I've never done an acca and I'm not confident and Oddsmonkey don't have Accra finders for LV

TBH all I really want to do is get my initial £50 out of LV by losing and winning at Betfair and walk away from LV.

However, I've got a mental block. I think I need to match on a no hoper at fairly high odds to lose the first leg of the acca and win at Betfair but will that give get me the money out of LV (IYSWIM). Or do I get on something at low odds and low liability (but then the danger is I will win at LV)

Or, could you lovely people suggest a way I can find out of this smelling of roses?

Thank you for your help and sorry for crashing into the thread and asking for help straight away

NeedSleepNow · 25/04/2019 14:25

Any advise on how best to get started? I've joined a couple of matched betting Facebook groups which I've been reading for a while, I've watched a few online video guides and have just set up a new email and bank account to use just for matched betting. I'm hoping to get started next week once I have some money but it seems so daunting! Any advice for a matched betting newbie? Thanks Smile

Purpletigers · 25/04/2019 14:40

Painting the roses . Smarkets have already built

I used starburst for them all . Set it to auto . 50 spins at 10p a spin and do this twice to wager your £10 deposit . Do NOT accept any of the bonuses they offer as it will invalidate your cashback . I’m off to do the last one . First three have tracked already in topcashback .

Purpletigers · 25/04/2019 15:02

Just finished the last offer . All sites have tracked on cashback and I’m up 95 quid .

thefavourite · 25/04/2019 18:29

@Paintingtheroseswhite, I'd use the Smarkets pre built ACCAs, there's a few for the darts tonight!

I’ve just done regal wins on Twin Spin Deluxe, been down as low as £4 now up to £14 so I’ll check my wagering then withdraw.

Cash backs tracked.

Fluffycloudland77 · 25/04/2019 19:59

I’ve done twin spin deluxe on magical Vegas, £15 profit and £30cb.

That’s £75 I didn’t have before.
