Shah's Matched Betting
 
Prepare for mediocrity! I am doing a matched betting thread, discussion, semi-journal.

I'm using this link to learn from:

MoneySavingExpert.com Forums - Board Agreement - READ HERE - Introductory Guide and FAQ - START HERE

Very in depth. I've read it twice over this week and I will sign up to everything tonight and tomorrow.

The thread is quite old so most of the sites are probably out of date.

What sites does everyone recommend? Betfair + whatever bookie sites are offering a free-bet, is my take on how you do this. Is that correct?

I plan on using one bank account and one card through-out the entire endeavor is this allowed?

I'm certain on both of those answers but double checking with some experienced people can't hurt. My float is £1000 of overdraft, and my goal is an extra £1000 in cash in my bank account to use by the end of the month. I have all the time in the day theoretically to make this money every day as university is over and no commitments.

Tomorrow is my first true bet. A cheap £10 one, then build up and up and up.

One final question; at the beginning can I spend a full few days racking up matched bets? Or is it quite hard actually finding a bet that's equal odds to lay and back? As the free-bet listing websites which have so many good free-bet offers seem to imply I could just go through them all and make thousands in a matter of days (There's about 12 or so free-bets that add up to 900 on the front page alone). It doesn't look like it'd take more than a few days even if you include bet-throughs and finding good odds.

Apart from that I feel I understand it fully now but plan on reading it twice-three times before my first bet (tomorrow) then hopefully just blasting out tonnes in a few all dayers or at least a good few hours, if that's possible with finding bets.

Woah, hadn't realised your float was an overdraft, you sure you're making the best decision here mate? Make sure you have a contingency plan and don't bet more than you can afford to lose. I know that sounds a bit crap but people screw themselves over this way.

Shahanshah 06-06-2014 01:30 PM

Yeah okay Ill get my first bet done tonight or tomorrow. To be honest I'm not bothered about bigger or better bets coming along, I just need the £1000 by the 30th ;)

And D!ce Im sure if I'm careful, follow the rules and formula I can't go too wrong.

D!ce 06-06-2014 01:37 PM

Sounds like famous last words, but good luck regardless!

Shahanshah 06-06-2014 02:14 PM

Steve Jobs would do the same.

And look where he is now.

Because he decided not to conform to conventional medicine, conventional medicine is too mainstream, apple hipsters prefers homeopathic shit.

Homeopathy is for Homeos

I never realised it was the stress of matched betting that polished him off.

Intriguing thread. I've been dabbling with low odds footy bets recently. Been doing well. Not taken it to a scientific level yet.

Hows your first week of betting been going Sha?
