Matched Betting Calculator

Filed under News

Here is our all new matched betting calculator perfect for working out all the stakes you need to maximise the returns from your risk free betting.

Simply select the bet type you are looking to make and the fill in the back stake & odds at the bookmaker & the lay odds & commission on the betting exchange.

Your lay stake, liability at the betting exchange will be returned to you along with the profit/loss on that selection

When cashing out a free bet it is important to know whether the free bet stake is returned by the bookmaker in question.

You can check this by looking at our Latest Offers Page or just drop us a line at info@bet72.com and we will be glad to help.

One thing to remember is that the free bet stake is not returned you are looking for a bet at odds of 3 or above. Of course the higher the odds the more money will be tied up for the duration of the bet as the liability at the exchange will be more, but this still of course all risk free.

As a guide, with equal back and lay odds, the % return for a non returned stake offer will be approximately:

  • 50% at odds of 2
  • 60% at odds of 2.63
  • 70% at odds of 3.7
  • 80% at odds of 6
  • 90% at odds of 20
  • 94% at odds of 100

Try entering different permutations of BACK and LAY odds at first to see what effect the difference in odds have on the overall liability and more importantly your profits so you can find a level of liability to profit ration that you are happy with.

We also have an Advanced Mode for the calculator too where you can select the amount you wish to underlay / overlay the bet by in order to weight it towards a particular outcome.

So pick an offer and away you go – Click Here For All The Latest Offers

All odds must be entered as decimal

It Pays To Sign Up

Sometimes it pays not to hold out for a new bookmaker sign up offer as you could be missing out on what they are offering their existing customers.

This is certainly the case with bookmaker, Betsson. A company that we have been with for a little while now, and whilst they don’t have a current joining offer they have more than made up for that over the last few weeks with offers sent direct to our inbox as an existing user.

Look at some of these recent invitations….

Fig 1 – Recent sportsbook offers totaling €74

Fig 2 – Still got some casino & poker ones to play too

So with this in mind we have given this bookmaker the full Oddsmatcher & Oddsmatcher Pro treatment so that once you have joined and placed a couple of bets to get you started, when the offers start arriving you will be all set to make some more instant risk free profit.

So what are you waiting for?

Step one then is to grab an account using the banner below, get signed up and deposited (and we would recommend a couple of bets to get yourself on the existing user radar, naturally you can lay these off to keep them all nice and risk free using Oddsmatcher of course)

Step two sit back & wait for your inbox to start to bulge with the free bonuses on offer from these chaps

Happy Betsson-ing….

A Risk Free Semi

April 1, 2013 by  
Filed under Football, News

Another chance to crack open the Refund Spreadsheet again this weekend, as after the locked in profits on the Manchester Derby on Monday we have some more opportunities, this time centred around the Chelsea v Man City FA Cup Semi Final on Sunday.

A very quick post as we have been asked to summarise how to lock in a guaranteed profit on the Betfair fixed odds cashback offer on the Manchester derby tonight.

Place a Sportsbook bet on Chelsea v Man City before kick off (ITV, 16:00 Sun).

Your bet must be on First Goalscorer, Last Goalscorer or Correct Score.

If Man City beat Chelsea (90mins) and the first bet you place loses, we’ll refund your stake, up to £/€50!

Semi Refunds

Money back on losing bets in ALL markets up to £25, in the form of a free bet token if Manchester City beat Chelsea in 90 minutes in the FA Cup Semi Final: Chelsea v Manchester City on 14th April 2013.

Offer is available to new and existing online, phone, mobile and shop customers.
Offer applies to single bets only. Refund will not apply to any multiple bets.
Offer applies to losing bets on ALL markets of the FA Cup Semi Final: Chelsea v Manchester City on 14th April 2013. Offer applies to bets placed in 90 minutes, this includes injury time but not extra time or penalties.

Mobile Money Back

Place a bet on this weekends fa cup semi finals and if the match ends in a draw after 90mins, we’ll refund your stake (on selected markets) up to £/€50 as a free bet

The promotion only applies to mobile bets placed via m.188bet.com on English FA Cup Semi Final matches played between 13/04/13 & 14/04/1

Only single, losing bets on the following markets qualify for the free bet refund, 1×2, Correct Score, HT/FT and Winning Margin.

For the Betfair offer then the simplest way is to BACK and LAY an outcome in the Correct Score market where City cannot win and then LAY City in the regular 90 minute market to lock in some risk free profit.

For the 188bet offer then just BACK and LAY either team in the 1X2 market and then LAY the draw in the regular 90 minute market

And for Ladbrokes, well you can use ANY market you like, again remember to BACK and LAY an outcome where City cannot win and then LAY City in the regular 90 minute market

Or even combine the offers to give you some great pre match trading positions and take them in play.

There are so many options, brilliant!

So here’s an example from our ‘What…If….’ refund spreadsheet using the Betfair offer as an example…..

In the above example we…..

BACK 0-0 on Betfair fixed odds at 9.5 for £50

LAY 0-0 on Betdaq (exchange) at 13 for £36.68 (£440.16 to cover the liability)

Then LAY City on Betdaq (exchange) at 2.38 for £21.46

This guarantees a profit of at least £5.23 assuming a commission rate of 5%

So grab the sheet, enter the figures into the boxes based on the current odds and play around with the stakes until you are happy with the profit and the liabilities for each of the offers

Away Sunday On Friday!

October 3, 2011 by  
Filed under News

The brilliant BetRedKings risk free offer Away Sunday has been moved to Friday this week to cover the International card. It is still called Away Sunday though, maybe Away Friday doesn’t have the same ring to it.

Anyway make no difference as it is still a few extra quid risk free for us!

This is fairly typical of the risk free profit you can expect from this offer every single Sunday (Friday, no Sunday) of the season, not bad eh.

And when you consider this is just one of many existing user offers they have running, it’s well worth having an account.



Plus you can grab a free £15 bonus when you join too. For full details of this sign up offer then click below:

Here’s the details of this weeks offer…..

Away Sunday Games this Sunday: AWAY INTERNATIONALS 7.10.2011

Montenegro – England
Serbia – Italy
Turkey – Germany

Bet on the away team on one of the games above and if they lose, we will give you your stake back up to £20 (€20, $30).
Stake will be given back only for 1 game so if you make more than 1 bet on the above games, only the first one counts.
Stake is given back only if the team loses. If there is a draw, then there is no money back.
The Moneyback is given into your bonus balance and you need to wager it twice with odds 1.5 before withdrawal.
Only bets made from Real Money balance count towards this promotion.
Only pre-game bets on 1×2 market count towards this promotion.
You need to claim your moneyback from accountmanager@BetRedKings.com within 7 days of the settled bet.

All fairly easy, just back / lay the away side of your choice and then lay the home side to lock in some risk free profit.

Here we even have a spreadsheet to help. Just bear in mind that the refund has to be wagered over 2x at 1.5 or above so for calculation purposes we would set the value of the refund at between 85%-90%

Download the spreadsheet here

Here’s an example of what we did on the Serbia v Italy game…..

Back / Lay Italy at £20 / £17.57 at 3.25 / 3.75 respectively

Lay Serbia for £8 at 2.30

To lock in £4.28 profit.

Note that we have set the refund value to 90% i.e. £18 as it has to be wagered over x2 when you get it. Although doing the one from last weekend on the horses we retained 98% of it thanks to some very good match up in odds so worth looking at the horses if you can to do this.
