Bet72 Profits Diary – April 2009

Posted on April 21, 2009 by  

Well it has been quiet a month so far as I have had to divert my attentions to technical issues on the site and also have been away for a few days so have missed a number of offers.  That said there have been plenty of offers about with honours really going to two bookmakers, William Hill and Ladbrokes.

Billy Hill has surpassed himself with more BuyOneGetOneFree (BOGOF) offers than you could shake a stick at and Ladbrokes has been doing the same on the casino front, lovely.

Between these great existing offers I have found time for plenty of trading as a matter of fact, starting off with the Aintree meeting at the beginning of the month, using a very nifty little strategy a pro trader friend of mind advised me on (more on that in later editions) through to a fantastic low risk football strategy that has been kicked around on the Racing Traders forum involving the Correct Score market.  Basically you take a position on a number of scores pre kick off and then lay out the positions during the game, hopefully getting ALL GREEN as soon as you can, this has worked so well that we are teeing up some live trading webinars so everyone can watch and even play along if they like, so watch this space.

    Hi Darren

    What was the exclusive £100 bet from Laddies on 25/4 and 26/4? I am registered with them and didn’t see that offer?
