November Profit: 1875.14
What a month! Right up until the last weekend this was looking to be only around £1k profit, not to be knocked but still far below what I’m used to… then BOOM! Gamesys throwing away hundreds of pounds worth of bonus money with only 2x wagering across the multiple sites they operate. From this I cleared almost £400 worth of profit in just a single evening.
Then on the Saturday I managed to hit one of the extra place payouts from Paddy Power. They were paying 5 places whereas I’d layed off on Betfair for 4 places. My horse came 5th and so I won with both Paddy Power and Betfair for a double payout. £300 profit.
Bets of note for this month:
- £400 across the Gamesys sites
- £300 Paddy Power each-way snipe
- £100 from Betfred £25 x 3 for £25 Greyhounds
- £100 from APs FGS on Betfair Sportbook
- £40 Netbet sports reload
- £40 Bwin sports reload

What are AP’s Guy?
AP stands for Advantage Play. It’s where you do an offer like you would normally but without matching the bet. Mathematically you still end up with the same average profit as if you had matched it however its used at times when there’s not much liquidity in the exchange market (often happens with first goalscorers).
I started matched betting 10 days ago and am around £450 up using 12 bookmakers so far and Betfair. Made a couple of beginner mistakes but the main problem was my qualifying and SNRs were winning with bookmakers whilst Betfair was getting hammered!
I’m using matched betting to build my Betfair account for trading which means having to withdraw funds and re-invest in Betfair. Once I’ve used the free bet offers, is there any point in leaving money with the bookmaker?
Only if you are likely to use the bookie again shortly after. I’ll usually withdraw everything after a big win and feed it back into the exchanges
