you wont make a load of money so its ok.

i dont know what would happen but i think the first thing if its bookies is they would want their money back. and if its Betfair, nobody will bother to catch you anyway, or if they do they'll probably just close your account i would think.

Betfair would be less bothered than any bookie. Any bets you make mean that they make money so they are less likely to check how old you are etc.

purely hypothetically... if i was to gamble online, make a load of money, while not being 18, what would happen to me, if one day i was caught? will i be caught?

noo.speaking from personal experience.
personally, i dont advise you to gamble on sports, although i ve made quite a lot of money. it is a waste of time.try to invest in shares.it is safer and you ll learn stuff. sport is unpredictable.
