The actual race doest matter, just how close the odds are between the bookie website and betting exchange I use to match the bet.

Yes, they send you an email such as:

Following a review of your account, we regret to inform you that you are no longer eligible for any William Hill Online Sports and Racing offers. This means you will no longer receive football promotions such as Acca Insurance, Scorer 2nd Chance and Bore Draw, as well as Best Odds Guaranteed and Money Back 2nd for Horse and Greyhound racing.

Except as stated above, your William Hill account will continue to operate as normal and you shall remain eligible for all other William Hill promotional offers.

Kind regards,

Depends whats on that day. Perhaps an hour or 2 on weekdays but alot longer on weekends.

No, some days I've finished in a negative, but always in a profit by the end of every week/month.

Nice :smile:

What do you spend your profit on? I guess it's allwayss good knowing you can accumulate couple hundred £s whenever you need :smile:

Also have you done the £200 winners sign up? do you make sure you lose at the bookies so you don't have to rollever like £2000

Not yet, I've done the B365 one though. That annoyingly kept winning so I eventually accumulated £1600 in the account :/
Lol why create such a bait thread @Reue? Must admit it's pretty pointless. Seems like an ego boosting thread where you're only goal is to:
1. Gloat about making momey from matched betting
2. Laugh at people who (as a result of your bait thread title) have got the wrong end of the stick and think you have a gambling problem.

It isn't really necessary and I've realised in the last month you've sort of turned the matched betting thread into some silly dick measuring contest about how much money you're making or how much money you have in your account . At least that's how it seems a lot of the time.
I did it a bit when I started matched betting telling my friends about it in a gloating way. They put me down to size quick and made me realise what a dick I was acting like basically gloating about something anyone of them could do. I'm a bit concerned you're heading that way too.
As a result of me calming it down and explaining how matched betting works in a way that doesn't make me sound like a know it all dick, 5 or 6 of them have asked me to do it for them over the summer for a stake of the profits, meaning I'll make £000's more and they'll be happy too.

Probably.

Frankly though; I couldn't care less. Take a read through the matched-betting thread... it's always been full of people talking about the awesome win I had last night etc. And really there's nothing wrong with that, we're all doing it for the same reason and personally I find it inspiring to see how much others are making from it so I can aim to reach them. It's the same across all the main matched-betting websites.

Like you; I've also encouraged many others to start doing it and they're all in profit :smile: I want people to see how easy it as and how they could also be doing it!
