Fix The Odds And You’re Guaranteed Profits

I’ve always been a cynic when it comes to gambling. I’ve always been aware that the odds are set to ensure that the house always wins. As a football fan, I’ve lost count of the amount of accumulator bets that I have lost. One thing that I have learned in years of betting is that football can be incredibly unpredictable.

There are still ways however, of guaranteeing to win money through betting on football matches and with the start to the 2015-2016 Premier League season being so turbulent and unexpected now is the perfect chance to take advantage of bookmaker’s uncertainty around potential results and start earning money from home.

Next, you need to take advantage of the various bookmakers online who are offering attractive matched bets or welcome offers. For instance, both Paddy Power and Betfair are currently offering £30 of free bets when you wager just £10. There are lots of bookmakers who offer similar free bets and you should always take advantage of these in order to maximise your profits. Bookmaker almost always expects to lose money through these free welcome bonuses in hope that you will remain loyal to them. This is where we take advantage of their generosity and start making money.

You will need to sign up to at least two of these websites. This will mean spending at least £10 with each of the two bookmakers to qualify for your free bets. Remember though, that you will be guaranteed a return on your money as you will be covering your own bets and later taking advantage of all the freebies the bookmaker’s will be giving you. Also, you should ensure that at least one of these websites allow you to place lay bets.

Lay bets are an option on Betting Exchanges such as Betfair where punters can play the role of a traditional bookmaker by offering odds to sell a bet instead of the usual option to back a bet. This means that instead of betting on a result (for example Manchester United to beat Everton at the weekend) you are betting on something not to happen (for example Everton not to beat Manchester United). This means that the bet will pay out if Manchester United win or draw. By placing a lay bet as well as a staked bet you are betting on all possible outcomes, win, lose or draw.

Making The Bets

I’m going to use the upcoming Spurs vs Liverpool match as an example. I’m going to do this for the reason that the potential result is somewhat unclear and therefore the odds will be closely matched leading to greater returns. The bookmaker’s have Spurs as favourites to win with just one point putting them ahead of Liverpool.

Having now signed up to two online bookmakers it’s now time to start betting. Paddy Power, for example, at the time of writing, are offering odds for Spurs to win at 6/4. This means that for every £10 that you bet you will get a return of £25 if you win, making a £15 profit.

You will need to bet your other £10 at the bookmakers that allow lay bets. It’s really important that this time you bet against the team you previously backed to win. For example, if you put a lay bet on Spurs not to win with Betfair your £10 stake will return £5 profit.

This means that if Spurs win or draw, you will have a net profit of £20.00. If they lose, you will only make a profit of £5, which isn’t great right? Wrong! Don’t forget about all those lovely free bets and new customer offers that will be coming your way. In this example for instance, we will get £60 of free bets in which to repeat the process and guarantee a profit.

If you put £30 of your free bets on Sunday’s game Newcastle vs Norwich (Paddy Power} and stake Norwich to win at 9/5 odds it will return £84 meaning a profit of £54.

Place a lay bet with your remaining free £30 (Betfair) for Norwich not to win it will return £42.
Please be aware though that some bookmakers will pay free bets in multiples of £10. If this is the case you can bet across multiple matches using the same technique.

Time To Count Your Profits

This means that your net profits across the two days will look like this:

If Spurs won and Norwich won = £69 profit
If Liverpool won or drew and Norwich won = £59 profit
If Spurs won and Newcastle won or drew = £57 profit
If Liverpool won or drew and Newcastle won or drew = £47 profit

In an ideal world when using this system the safest option would be to find two bookmakers who value each of the team’s odds very differently. For example If bookmaker ‘A’ has odds on a team to win at 3/1 (meaning you would get a £30 profit on a £10 bet) and bookmaker ‘B’ has similar odds on a lay bet for the same team not to win you could end up with a guaranteed profit. Because these situations very rarely happen, it’s important to fully take advantage of the various bookmakers who are also offering great matched bets. You can then sit back in the comfort of your own home and watch your profits roll in.
