    Just happened to be browsing Boyles and came across some Champions League specials and realised I probably miss a ton of these every week, so might be an idea to have a dedicated thread.

    To get the ball rolling, everybody's probably already aware of the B365 In-play Money Back Special. This special requires you to place a pre-match bet on any of tonight's ECL games, followed by an in-running bet of up to the same value. Where the in-play bet goes on to lose, B365 will refund the stake up to I think €50.

    The ones I spotted on Boyles are here:

    Special Enhanced Double - Man Utd/Barcelona @ 3.0
    Special Enhanced Treble - Man Utd/Barcelona/Chelsea @ 6.0

    Based on Betfair prices both the above represent value by a decent margin.

    Any more out there? I thought I saw a Moneyback if Mata scores first/last somewhere but can't remember where?

    That special is with Ladbrokes, seen it in their shop earlier....

    So it is:

    If Juan Mata scores first or last in the Premier League match between Chelsea and Shakhtar, we will refund losing first goalscorer stakes, as a free bet, up to €100

    However, taking oddschecker best prices as the criterion for good value, Laddies don't seem to have much to tempt a bet unless Daniel Sturridge happens to get a start:

    Boyles have another enhanced accumulator tonight, pretty high variance @ 15.00, but offers a decent edge compared to Pinnacle prices which come to 14.03:

    Not a real special - BetVictor regular prices outmatch Boyles'.

    I think Boyles specials are terrible especially their shop specials, they hardly bother doing any doubles or trebles involving the main PL teams anymore.
    They had a "Boylemania" shop special up Wednesday, Man City to win both halves - "best industry price" at 5/2 - max stake was €50.
    Paddy Power were 5/2 all day with no stake limit.
    A lot of the Boylemania specials they are worst prices and then just bring their enhanced prices to where everybody else is, with a €50 max.
    Podolski to score anytime another one, they were 15/8, enhanced up to 3/1 which was also freely available elsewhere.

    I find Ladbrokes are always nearly the same prices as Boyles on any football Doubles or Trebles they do the same but their prices are not great on PL w/e matches.
    Best value there is BetVictor & PP.

    PP is the place to go where their shop specials are by the far the best.
    Online they are close to top prices on the main w/e PL teams and then enhance them in the shops again.
    They are nearly always higher against Ladbrokes.
    They also do Shop only specials called While Stocks Last which last for about 15 mins and are normally higher against Betfair prices.
    Yesterday they had Chelsea to win at 6/4, Man Utd at 6/4 and another tennis one which I missed.
    There's a max stake of €200 on those.
    Add in all the racing specials they do nowadays, if you have a choice, there's no contest.

    Bestbetting.com for price checks.

    Works out at 15.48 on Bet Victor ordinary prices.

    So it does, I took the Newcastle price as 2.55 (Brugges' price) instead of 2.88 by mistake.

    Do you have a William Hill account?

    If so, you should follow this account. Max bet is usually 10 or 20 but the value is usually outstanding. For example I've seen them give evens on markets with best price elsewhere 1/2 and 2/1 on 5/6 shots.

    Nah been shut down on WH since about three weeks into the GAA season. You might copy/paste to here when you notice them in future?

    Yeah no bother. Do you have a twitter account? Very handy to follow all the bookmakers, they usually tweet their special offers in advance.

    And if you have a Bwin account, they're offering 2.5 on Galatasaray to beat Man Utd. United have already topped their group and will almost certainly send a second string/third to Turkey. Gala have huge incentive to win the match and aren't a bad side.

    Shortest price elsewhere (according to oddschecker is 2.45 and shortening across the board.

    Not sure I see them at that price closer to kick off, can see them hovering slightly above evens.

    Boylemania today Anji h/t, f/t v Liverpool enhanced from 6/4 to 2/1 for a max stake of €50.
    Bestbetting had 3 other bookmakers who were 2/1 all day with no max stakes.

    Some of the Hills specials are outstanding but for a very small stake which I assume is to make sure everybody gets a bit of the action.

    Not soccer bets but still might be of interest to some, two rugby MBS on PP. Money back if Tommy Bowe scores any time for Ireland and MB if George North scores any time for Wales.


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,267 ✭✭✭opr


    If you go to oddscheckers -> Football Centre. They have a ticker running across the page with all the current special offers from the bookies they cover. Also when you search a particular market if you hover over the star if it's above a certain bookie it tells you what special offer they have running which pertains to that market.

    PP doing money back on selected markets if Torres scores the last goal in the game at the weekend.

    Boylesports
    Place any assist bet on the Premier League this Saturday and get a matched FREE bet for Super Sunday! T&Cs Apply: Valid for singles only. Valid on Premier League games only. Maximum bet £/€20. Applies to online customers only. Free matched bet will be applied before 13:30 on Sunday 11th November. Promotion closes on Saturday 10th November at 17:30 (when Aston Villa v Man Utd kicks off).

    This is quite good. Just looking at some of the matches today, and the games you could see a lot of goals in are Reading/Norwich and Southampton/Swansea. Jobi Mcanuff has 4 assists in 9 PL games this season and is 3/1 to assist anytime today. Adam Lallana has 4 from 10 and is also 3/1. I think they both represent good value.

    Looking at the United lineup from Wednesday night, it's likely Ashley Young will start. He's always likely to get an assist against these type of teams imo and represents value at 3/1. Might want to wait until he's a confirmed starter though. Valencia at 11/4 isn't bad either but seeing as United played away from home in the CL, might be best to stay away, although Villa are poor enough.

    Does anybody have an assist bet?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,832 ✭✭✭✭Blatter


    PP refunding first/last goalscorer, correct score and scorecast bets up to €100 in the Arsenal v Spurs game if Bale scores anytime.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,474 ✭✭✭IncognitoMan


    Some of ye might be interested in this from betfred:

    "Take advantage of doubled and trebled first goalscorer prices with Double Delight & Hat-Trick Heaven on the North London derby between Arsenal and Spurs and the early evening kick off between Norwich and Man United!"

    As I understand it if you back a player to score first at 2/1 for example and he scores first you win at 2/1, if he scores again in the match they pay 4/1 instead and if he gets a 3rd you win at 6/1. Looks decent for a few inform strikers.

    Its on for the following matches:

    Arsenal v Tottenham
    Norwich v Man Utd
    Fulham v Sunderland
    West Ham v Stoke

    Hernandez (4/1) and Berbatov (4/1) look the stand outs here to me.
