British Forum BETTING thread

I've pulled in over 1200 profit in the last two weeks and i haven't been limited. Well, not yet anyway.

And as for a run of bad luck, that could allways happen i suppose but hopefully not anytime soon

 

This weekends ufc bets

Double, Maia + E. Silva @ 2.20/1

Treble, Nogueira + Davis + Teixeira @ 1.33/1

A. Silva vs Bonnar goes the distance @ 7/2

 

Price 1-6
Alvarado 7-12

9/1 with Sporting Bet... Quite tempted

 

I have a feeling you're going to say it isn't but I can only think that's because the account you're using is a long term losing one, either that or you're mugging off money on other bets. Regardless of what I think about the strategy I'm not trying to be a dick, just trying to give a bit of advice from experience as if it's genuinely working for you you'd want it to carry on as long as possible. I've got bookies I just can't get on with and others which limit me to between £4 and £12 and I'm not turning over huge sums and rarely bet in 3 figures.

If you've turned over that amount then I'd split it between a few different books and do the 1st bet on one, 2nd on another etc as it won't be long before they flag your account, they aren't in the business of giving money away easily. Mug off a few quid on roulette and the odd accumulator too, and don't place the max bet you can etc...

If you don't have that many accounts you may as well open more as one of the only guaranteed ways of making money gambling (arbing aside) is to back and lay using the sign up bonuses, should clear around 1k doing that although I think it's harder now with the roll over requirements...

 

Gents,

Bit of a random one. When you sign up to a betting account do they still send mail to your home address? I had one a few years back and used to get mail sent out to me with promos and statements etc. Basically i don't want my missus finding out ive got an account as "ive quit gambling".

So what accounts don't send mail? i know you can change settings to "don't contact me via any method" once you have signed up but i don't want a welcome letter or anything like that.

 

All fair points I have two accounts where they wont let me win more than 200 pounds on boxing betting, they just limit my stake so it does not go over the 200 take out.

Yet I can bet on any other sport and take out a lot more, normally they cotton on but reap the benefits whilst you can because eventually it will go west, well done though

 

Yeah if you can continually turn a profit they will eventually limit you, some give you a better run than others e.g. Bwin limited me to £12 on everything after a few decent priced special wins and about 3 winning boxing bets which 90% of the time is useless and paddypower and skybet no longer want my business, whereas I use sportingbet sparingly but have won decent amounts a few times and have no issues there and obviously some are losing accounts so no problems there, lol. I mainly bet on boxing and specials markets which do get flagged quicker than other markets as the turnover is smaller.

You can and I have opened accounts in other peoples names (with permission) or fake ones, but that's a pain due to the KYC checks, funding it and also if anything goes wrong. Betfair is always an option but the liquidity is low on most boxing unless it's high profile and they tend to only cover the main event and 1 support bout. Can obviously go in shops but again that's a pain, especially for the strategy in question.

 

Ive never been limited by a paddypower. Thats probably a bad sign

Having said that in the 2 years Ive had my online account Ive managed to make 900 and 400 profit each of those years overall. Not a lot, but its a profit and I dont stake anymore than 20 maximum, usually a couple of quid here or there.

 

Looking to the future a bit but you can get 4/1 on Foster Jr against Gary Buckland. Bit of value for an outside punt, surely.

 

Foster jr is shite

 

cheers guys, let the betting commence!!

 

what are the best sites to use? i use bet365 for football but they dont have much in way of undercard fights

 

Germany -1 is easy money tomorrow night I feel. Hate to say it, but I see a bit of a hammering coming. Maybe 3-0.
Also double that up with England -5
