    What's those odds?

    Chelsea are evens, DC is 8/11

    would lose about 3 is Double Chance comes in but if chelsea name a strong team I would fancy them to win it

    Lose 13 you mean. You don't get free bet back as stake if you win.

    I think he means bet the DC with his own money thus losing 3 gaining 2x5 free bets.

    It's hedging to gain free bets.

    So He'll take a loss of 3 quid in order to gain 10 quid in free bets. It's basically so he's not Risking 20 for the offer. So rather than losing 20, he'll lose 3 and still gain the bets and then hopefully turn those bets into cash!

    Ah yeah. Taking both sides. Chelsea to win and WB double chance ?

    Actually seeing as how the all look like games that could go any way I'll put 10 euro free bet on the draw in all 5 - should be at least one, might get lucky and get 2/3.

    Liverpool are the only team I'd fancy to win as its Gerrards last game so would be tempted to do Liverpool win and BTTS but maybe I should stick to my draw sysytem if I do go with it.


    Was beginning to lose my nerve on the draws but finally won a free bet today with the Man Utd Arsenal draw. Will try one more in WBA - Chelsea tomorrow.

    I actually hope PP stop the in-play offers now because I feel compelled to do them but they are awful to bet with.

    Presume Hull-Man Utd and Newcastle-West Ham will be live games next weekend, there's Arsenal - Sunderland midweek and they might do it for Championship play off final, Champs League final and FA cup final and then we'll be free?!

    They actually have a decent offer for the Senior Football Championship. Bet 25 pre-tournament and get a 5 euro free bet every time your team wins. If ya back Dublin or Kerry you are pretty much guaranteed 15-20 back in free bets.

    Looking at that myself.Kerry had 5 games last year to win AI and Dubs had 6 year before.I cant see beyond either of those to win it.
    Will Go with Kerry at 3's should at least get 3 wins.

    Just got an email today from Paddy Power saying I've been banned from availing of money back specials & promotions etc. I've only done these type of bets in around 4 of the games. So just as a warning, it may catch up with you! :)

    Surely they will also show Chelsea v Sunderland as they will receive the PL trophy after the match?

    That's not good.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,191 ✭✭✭✭Shanotheslayer


    No E-mail for me. Not sure if it's worth the risk tonight!


  • Registered Users Posts: 16,522 ✭✭✭✭yabadabado


    No email for me either. **** it I'm gonna keep at until I get barred or the promotion stops.
    EPL is over on Sunday so the offer will end then,might as well chance it for the few games left.Plenty more bookies around.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,618 ✭✭✭✭okidoki987


    Chelsea have been backed from 2.02 to 1.85 since last night.
    Unless someone knows the Chelsea team, there is always the chance he will rest a few of the regular 1st team players.
    If that happens, their price will be bigger.
    Not saying it will happen but if you lay Chelsea at 1.85 now and back them just before ko, it could well be a risk free bet.


  • Registered Users Posts: 318 ✭✭zzfh


    no email for me either..tbh i have won feck all off the free bets,might just put the 25 on dub for all ireland

    haha, true.


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,301 ✭✭✭✭Collie D


    Chelsea backed at 17/20 as my qualifier. Most likely do Hazard FGS in running. Down over €60 for the five games if nothing comes in tonight. Might have to start doing these risk free ones but I prefer having a punt.

    EDIT: Didn't finish work until after eight so didn't get first goal on in time. Another fiver on Chelsea at 15/8 and Hazard next goal at 5/1

    Went for a pre game bet of over 20 points on the card index at 5/6. Mike Jones is the ref who is quite lenient averaging almost exactly 3 cards a game this season. But 20 points is very low and looking at the weekend games having nothing to play for didn't really predict the amount of cards shown. Plus its an evening kick off and on tv.. I always feel like these game produce more cards.

    I could cover it by backing exactly 20 points on the card index at 12/5 with the free bet or else I'll stick with my original plan of backing a draw in all the weekends live games.


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,191 ✭✭✭✭Shanotheslayer


    20 on Christen on Chelsea bench. Centre Back. Going with him on the logic that, Mourinho will only bring him on if they're are winning, thus there being a goal in the game!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,350 ✭✭✭Rasputin11


    Hazard 2 or more at 21s on Betfair.


  • Registered Users Posts: 691 ✭✭✭ianburke


    jaypurs may have to set up a pp in other half's name or something. and ill only do these bets so cant get restricted. im sure theres serious money to be made on these


  • Registered Users Posts: 17,191 ✭✭✭✭Shanotheslayer


    Free bets on Costa next goal.
    Over 3.5

    Can always rely on Chelsea for a bit of despicable behaviour.

    Stuck 10 in play on WBA ht/ Draw ft at 7/2.

    They are well aware of it I'm sure and eventually there would be sanctions for accounts I'd imagine.

    Arbing has been around since betting has existed.

    I haven't got an email yet, but I've been winning nothing with the free bets so they probably aren't too concerned about me!
