this may be too good to be true (sort of)

anyway, Stan James £25 sign up / £25 bonus

1 bet, then SNR on your freebet

But they have Man Utd to back @ 1.17, Betfair will lay Man Utd @ 1.17

minimal loss on your qualifer, gives you a bit more for your SNR bet ... so to speak.

nice bet but odds that low might not qualify for the bet

Managed a profit of £33.93 from the Betfred £50 offer today. Obviously, it could have been higher, but I didn't have enough money in my Betfair account to cover my liability on a £50 bet at decent odds. Still, £33.93 ain't bad, plus if the £15 you get through Quidco with Betfred comes through, that's £48.93

I can see myself getting quite into this, thanks Anksta

It will do, it'll send u to the site u registered with, create a seperate account on the other site (different user name and password)

Check your email box for the welcome letter, then your'll know what site u first signed upto

So, the higher your back stake, the more you win. But the liability on the lay will be greater, therefore you need more in your betting exchange account to cover the bet.

Is this correct?

If im right...

When using your money (qualifier) go as low as you can on odds
On your free bets you want as high as odds as possible - and for them to match out at 90% on the calc.

Only with SNR bets. If the stake is returned you can still do it at low odds and get maximum profit (although, higher odds and losing to the exchange is the best way if you can do it)

It doesn't really matter with the qualifier bet, the only reason you go higher odds is because the difference between the odds is the same on low bets as it is high but on the odds they are relatively speaking, a lot closer together, e.g. 2 and 2.3 is an 87% retention whereas 5 and 5.3 is 94%

soz mate that sounded more confusin than it is.

Pho is right, with the SR bets you can use lower odds and still come away with reasonable profit. With SNR though you have to use higher odds to come away with anythin significant as whatever your winning is effectively minus the bonus, therefore you want to win as much as possible i.e. with higher odds.

mehuk · 23 Jul 2007 at 14:31

if im right in adding... the higher the odds, the more you will need in Betfair (Exchange) to cover your liability.

Yep. I'm currently sitting on betfair with £200, so I can cover any bets of odds around 5.0. It's a pain having to have so much in there, as its less in my bank account, but in the end, its making me money

I've made about £80 so far from this from Coral, Betfred and totesport, with £100 in quidco, but thats not getting to me for 2-3 months I expect.

Any recommendations for who to hit next?

mehuk · 23 Jul 2007 at 15:08

Im not getting anything from QUIDCO at all

Have raised tickets on the accounts i have setup via them, but my balance is empty

Make sure your cookies and javascript settings are correct (its explained in the quidco help).

Same boat, although I've also done my first £25 free bet from SportingOdds, total £120 plus quidco money, which I havent seen anything of yet.

I'm tempted to wait it out til the footy season starts before I do any more, I really need to start work on an essay but this could get addictive..
