    See, this is what I don't get:

    The in play bet is refunded if you lose.
    It is not? You've forked out 100, if you lose the second bet but win the first, you've still lost about £45 in total?

    As Sincere said, your in-play bet is refunded so that -£47 turns into profit of £3 which gives you a free acca at the weekend. Just remember to do the safe bet pre-match and the risky bet in-play.

    The second bet should always be over 2.0 odds, so you'll get £100 or more back. The first bet's purpose is for you to qualify for the £50 in-play offer, that's why you go with something very, very safe.

    The safest option is the BTTS in the first half options. But i dont live by life in any safe option so i prefer the over 0.5 goals and predict the correct score option.

    Looking at Atletico's form and I'm not particularly confident in the 0-0. As much as my head tells me Atletico will win, that 12/1 for Leicester is very, very appealing.

    Wait, are you fuckers talking about one of these deals that the betting sites do where they give you back cash for the first bet?

    If so that would make sense. Because I still can't make sense of how placing two bets ever cover each other otherwise, unless you find a binary bet with 2.0+ odds on option A on one site and 2.0+ on option B on another site (which, I learned the hard way, you should still stay the fuck clear of if it happens).

    Sometimes you'll get stuff like

    H / D / A
    2.8 - 3.5 - 3.5, at which case you can almost cover yourself by betting on D & A and then hope there isn't an early goal and that the odds go up above 3.0 for H.

    Yeah, you get your money back if the in-play bet loses.

    What the fuck, so they just hand out money to people?

    I only ever bet on the Betfair Exchange and that never happens there obviously.

    Atletico basically never concede at home in the Champions League so I think I'll avoid those Leicester odds even though they're so high. I do have a feeling they might do it though... And we all know the secret to success in betting is trusting very vague feelings!

    I really can't tell a single one of the games tonight.

    Usually, like Reg implies, that means just go with the highest odds on everything and hope for an upset.


    Leicester seemingly being without Morgan might really hurt them though. And Athletico are still industrious enough to not expose themselves too much at the back, like teams like City might, so who knows.

    They conceded to Rostov. Their clean sheet record really isn't all that good. Factor in that Leicester have the potential to seriously up their game and Griezman being a bottler, I'm going for Leicester.

    4 goals conceded in their last 20 home CL games.

    I see that Rostov goal was the only goal conceded this season as well. Fuck sake, Reg. I had my mind made up. Now I'm tempted by 0-0 again.

    I've gone with £5 Atletico 1-0 @5

    Not sure about the in-play yet.

    Griezmann only has an issue bottling it in a final. He's scored winners against Barcelona, Bayern and abdy else they face in knockout stages. And his form since the turn of the years been immense. Their clean sheets have been somewhat iffy compared to previous as Oblak was injured for months.

    Reg: why just a fiver? Surely just take advantage of the full £50?

    Leicester, storia di un grande amore!

    Have you not been reading this thread at all? Me and Sincere have gone through it. IT IS FREE MONEY*.

    *although it states in the T&Cs that you aren't allowed to use methods that guarantee profit, I've never known this to be put into action, and most of my mates have won hundreds at some point.

    I didn't see that Sincere post, but I know of this bet365 thing.

    So it states that in the T&C yet nobody ever has their account shut down when they take advantage of this offer?

    You wouldn't have your account shut down, you just wouldn't get your money back from the in-play bet is my understanding. Like I said, as far as I've heard/read it has never happened.

    I'm almost certain they will never do anything about people guaranteeing themselves money.

    If you do it right it's a free £50 or whatever every time it rolls around.

    It's worth it to them because it gets people using their website, and because people will either fuck up guaranteeing profit or go for something hollywood.

    Just cover the 0-0 with a fiver on sky bet if you're that worried, surely?

    Thinking £50 Atletico -1 pre match now. It's happening.

    The most you can guarantee no matter the result is between £25 and £30. That's what I used to do until it wasn't enough.

    Over 0.5 in the before, and I'm sorely tempted by Athletico to miss a pen at 16/1.

    PLying football at 6.55 so going to need to chuck it on immediately after the game on my phone.

    Bottled standard handicap for pre match and stuck -1 AH @1.50. Might leave it ten minutes in play to see the odds.

    I had a tiny bet on Monaco and broke even on Atletico, won on Real.

    Trust Champions League to be the only thing I can make a penny on.

    Just losing every bet. Swerving every winner. Won 4 of my last 26. Too big on Tucuman last night in particular.


    I'm still up for April, the first five days were incredible. Lost 4 bets of my first 30.

    Good old variance.

    Funny how variance works. I was having a pretty underwhelming year but enjoying my best ever month at the moment. 13% RoI, need this to continue.

    Withdrew £50 at 10pm last night and £50 at 5am. Neither have hit my account and I'm not really expecting the 5am transaction to come through this weekend. Nothing yet, though. /o\
