Sorry a little bit of after timing on this post as didn’t get chance to post yesterday, slap wrists and all that….

However it did turn into a rather pleasing day, maniny thanks to the world most famous baldy bookie, Betfred and his Refund if Stall One Wins at Chester Offer upto £200. I managed to get full stakes on every bet and only had one winner so a fantastic little offer.

Basically made something from every race bar one and that was the Chester Cup which qualified me for a free bet at Ladbrokes on the City / Tottenham game. Throw in the obligatory Will Hill BOGOF offer and the day was a good ‘un.

Fred also had a refund offer on the City / Tottenham game on all losing bets if more than 4 goals were scored, couldn’t really find anything worth doing. Toyed with the idea of a trade using some of this as insurance but wasn’t sure I would be about for the whole game so I left it alone in the end.

Also had the last part of my refund from TowerGaming credited from the Europa League games involving Fulham and Liverpool, yes quite a delay, this is a long story of course but the main thing is we are all done and dusted and this has added £195 profit to the pot!

With the donations made by others we are in ouching distance of our £1K target and still have 10 days to go, so I am hungry for more. And as always if we have helped you make a few quid along the way please give what you can to the link at the bottom.

Daily result:

Betfred Chester Races Refund : £71.44
Ladbrokes City / Tottenham Free Bet: £6.72
Willl Hill BOGOF : £5.81
TowerGaming Europa League Refund : £195.22

Today’s Profit: £279.19

Total Profit Raised for Donation: £786.95

Star Wars Day, May The 4th…..but in reality will be a quiet day for offers for me.

Think I will pick off a couple of casino offers safe in the knowledge that there will be plenty coming down the line.

Already got a BOGOF at Will Hill for the City / Spurs game and a juicy looking offer at Betfred for Chester races so you really don’t have to be on this 24/7 as if you miss something another free bet bus will soon be along.

Yes glad to report the Coral BJ is running nicely +£48 from the £25 monthly bonus, -£10 on the roulette one so +£38 for this month.

Update:

Yes that was that, +£38 for me today so we hit the £500 mark and still not included our friends from TowerGaming.

Today’s Profit: £38

OK let’s make up for the last couple of days poor effort with a few decent offers. Plenty happening this “extended” weekend so I think we can really make some good cash to add to the pot.

On the immediate list then:

William Hill BOGOF – one for Sat and one for Sun
Ladbrokes free tenner
Got a free live bet offer on the Liverpool / Chelsea game from Bet24
Good to see the Betfair multiples back, a strange void in my life without them this week (sad man alert)
Seems to be a good selection of Guineas offers about too so they are worth a closer view.

Will have another bash at the Beat Victor and Sportingbet Bully comps, gotta win one week surely?!

Also a new month means new Ladbrokes casino offers and our regular monthly fayre too so will be picking off those over the next few days and reporting as I play them. Have already picked up £6.20 from today’s Isis but lost £13 on the Bingo mini slots games offer (with £10 bonus to come) so a gentle start!

So let’s see if we can break the £500 barrier by the time the fat lady sings at the end of the weekend on Monday!

Update:

As this was an extended weekend I have wrapped these all together as I was in and out all weekend so had to pick off the offers as I got to them.

2 x BOGOFs from WH over the weekend netted £11.21 in total

Locked in £6.86 overall profit from the Ladbrokes in play offer.

2 more multiple offers from Betfair netted £9.60. Betfair are on a roll at picking losing favourites at the moment. Standby for Betfair Lays the new tipping service……!

Couple of refund offers too from Betfred on the Chelsea and Man U games on Sunday. In the first they would refund losing bets in certain markets if a goal was scored in the first 20 mins. So I put a little trading idea in that I have used with the Nugget Crew. Put £200 on 0-0 (8.5 – was 14 on Betfair!!) with Betfred and backed Chelsea 2-1 on Betfair for £50 at 10’s. The idea being that if there was a goal I would get the refund at Betfred and the 2-1 scoreline would come in a few ticks to lock in a profit. After 20 mins 0-0 was down to 8.2 so I scratched out of that for a small loss, but stayed in the 2-1 as you could see a goal coming. The price had drifted to 14, then Drogba scored and came into 8 and we locked in a £9.75 profit.

On the other game Fred had a refund on losing bets if Man U won by 2 goals or more. Nice and easy this one. Just backed and layed 1-2 for £200 for a £40 loss (god those odds were bad) and then Backed Sunderland (+1.5) on the Asian Handicap market over at 188bet at 1.75 to lock in a £38.25 overall profit. Lovely and no commission to pay either!

Hopefully a sign of things to come for the World Cup so this is a great way to test out a few strategies for when the offers appear again.

£3.20 up overall on Ladbrokes games / casino offers but a whole new set to start on for May so will be into those in the next few days.

Had hoped to push onto break the £500 mark but happy with the progress so far and still 13 days to go to get to the target so let’s do it.

Very quiet day on the offers.

All I did was lose £3 on the Ladbrokes Isis slot offer and make £7.12 on the Paddypower T20 InPlay offer.

Still a profit is a profit and the total is ticking upward with still over 2 weeks to go!

Looks like April is going to end on a bit of a whimper. Everyone else seems so pre-occupied with old women in Rochdale and Grumpy Gordon they have overlooked any offers on the Europa League. I will be keeping my eyes and ears open to anything else that appears.

Have already secured £19.50 thanks to the Isis slot over at Ladbrokes Games so already up for the day and it keeps the total ticking over.

Other than that they are the Dogs offers at William Hill and VC. Plus have had an email from Bet24 about an extra £10 on a double bet on the semi finals tonight so might be a few pennies in that, so am confident we can get a little more out of today.

Update:

Well just add 64p (from Bet24) to my £19.50 from earlier, wow!

I know I do need to be a bit more fluffy and flowery with this blog but it does get hard sometimes, as I always feel the need just to get the offers out there and get everyone making a few £. Maybe my word cound will increase based on the donations made….

There that was almost 2 whole sentences, I spoil you, so onto the offers on the table for today:-

More BOGOFs at William Hill today of course, well there is a Y in the day.
Need to cash out my free £10 over at Ladbrokes
Also have an offer from Centrebet for a free Champions League final bet by wagering on the semi finals and a couple of interesting looking games ones in my account too

Update:

Locked in £5.62 on the Will Hill BOGOF and made £6.12 from the Ladbrokes one. Not the best but every penny counts!

£2.50 from Ladbrokes slots offer, woah!

Have secured my 2 x Centrebet freebies for the final too so have tied a knot in my hanky so I don’t forget about them.

Other than that a quiet sort of day really, we still await the Tower refunds and still gave me chance to get uptodate on a bit of admin work, long overdue and always bottom of the list.

Ah the Champions League. No English interest (will have to wait at least 3 years before Reading take their rightful place) so all my interest is on the bookies offers (as it always is) and as always plenty to get stuck into.

BOGOFs galore from Will Hill (football, dogs and snooker) and Ladbrokes have one too.
A free fiver from Jetbull is always welcome, really liking using this bookmaker again.
Should get my free fiver from Blue Sq today to cash out too. Still waiting on TowerGaming but was told it could take until Wednesday.

Staring to see quite a few “IF” refund offers again, you know IF xxx sends 0-0 we refund all losing correct score bets. Whilst these have never been a great cash cow sometimes there is a few quid to be had so worth keeping an eye out. In fact bearing in mind their frequency and the fact we have a World Cup looming I will knock up a few videos to discuss these and get the spreadsheet uploaded to. Only takes a few seconds then to see if an offer has any risk free profit in it.

Away from the bookies….

Another Ladbrokes games offer has started, slots but worth a shot.
Need to do a quick double check as we are near the send of the month that I haven’t missed any monthly offers too.

Update:

God those snooker 5 x £1 in play bets were hard work…..still made £3.51 on the first game and £3.43 on the second and while I was at it picked up a nice little arb, made over £10 on that (wish I had more in my account now as it was gone in a flash). Certainly an interesting sport in that respect and the inplay angle is one that I am keen to do more with.

Netted £3.76 from the footy one too so a good day at Billy’s again.

Missed my Jetbull qualifying bet, only a fiver but really annoys me as effectively missing out on free money, doh! So happy to chuck my £10 arb profit ointo the pot, so will have to fund my curry and beer for the footy tonight out of my own pocket!

Turned my free fiver at Blues Sq into £4.45 profit thanks to a 15/15 match on the horsey’s

Also picked up a £10 reload bonus over at Foxycasino and converted into £9.50 profit playing Blackjack. Nice to get these unexpected ones!

And £20 profit from my BlueSq slots offer. Obviuosly slots are totally random but happy to use some of my own funds here as this month has been so good and you have to be in it to win it so to speak.

On the subject of slots was net for 0 on the Ladbrokes Isis slots offer, looks a bit brutal that one so will tread carefully with that one.

Anyway a good day, over £50 to add so that is very welcome.

Monday is always the day for taking stock and planning for the week ahead so will be happy with any extra’s to the pot today. Just having a look around to see if anything else catches the eye, if not full steam ahead on the Champions League tomorrow me thinks!

Already had my £10 cash in from Betfair for their 10 x 10 offer so that is a good start and cost me nothing as I was just doing the normal offers to qualify for this!

Quieter day on the horizon me thinks.

Will be taking a look at Betfair Racing Mania offer of course and must do the free £10 at Betfair offer as well, easy peasy that one.

I am sure we can find a few more although the BOGOF’s and other weekend offers are already on the cards so plenty to get onto for then.

Will also take a review of the casino situation must be one or two more to be had. On that subject clean forgot about Eurobet VP, finished it off this morning for a £4 loss overall, not good but could have been much worse, so glad to escape this month!

Update:

Tech issues on the site dragged me away from the business of money makeing today but managed to make enough get us over the £250 mark and when those Towergaming refunds hit we will be really rocking! Plus loads over the weekend to make up for today.

Surprisingly wasn’t about much today and had a very good return thanks mainly to Betfred and the good old faithful BOGOF’s, love ’em.

Couldn’t get onto the Ladbrokes Dogfather slots offer, all the bonus seem to have been taken today. Never mind I have the Eurobet VP to finsih off.

Champions League proved a big hit and we scooped up £5.10 and £4.13 on the Totesport and William Hill BOGOF offers respectively.

Collected a nice £25 profit thanks to the cashback offer at Betfred and £3 from today’s Betfair Midweek Mania.

Had a double email from Jetbull with a free fiver to play their Beach Girls slot with, turned that into £3.50 profit and also a £5 Champions League freebet, had secured the free bet for 80p and will cash out on the Wednesday match.

Also had a free £10 credited from Boylesports (earlier Racing Post offer), again could not place this online but their jolly nice telephone staff got it on and we have secured a £7.22 profit from this

Today’s Profit: £47.96
