188bet were doing a risk-free offer of £25. However, I had trouble depositing money and accidently ended up depositing £50 rather than £35.
I bet £25 that the correct score in the match between Sporting Lisbon and FC Metalist Kharkiv would be 1-2 at odds of 15 and placed a lay of £20.65 against a 3-2 score at odds of 17. Thankfully I lost this bet so received a payout of £19.64, leaving me with a loss of £5.36. Poor effort...
I then contacted 188bet about withdrawing the remaining £25 of my own money but was told that I must bet it before withdrawing it. I bet £25 that the correct score in the match between Schalke and Athletic Bilbao would be 2-2 at odds of 15, and placed a lay of £25.08 against a 2-2- result at odds of 15. However, I won this bet so received a payout of £375.00 at 188bet but paid out a liability of £351.12 at Betfair, leaving me with a small loss of £1.12.
I then received a £25 refund into my account. I bet £25 that the correct score in the match between Chesterfield and Wycombe Wanderers would be 2-2 at odds of 15 and placed a lay of £25.77 against a 2-2 score at odds of 14.5. I lost this bet so received a payout of £24.51 at Betfair.
Profit from this chapter: £24.51 - £5.36 - £1.12 = £18.03
Overall profit: £704.61 + £18.03 = £722.64

Chapter 41 - Betsson
Betsson were doing an offer where I received a 50% deposit bonus of up to £25. However, the rules stated that I must rollover the deposit and the bonus 10 times - I aimed to avoid this! Tough challenge!!
For my first bet I bet £20 that the HT/FT result in the match between Tottenham and Stoke would be Stoke/Tottenham at odds of 24 and placed a lay of £18.42 against Stoke/Tottenham at odds of 30. Somewhat risky as I was overlaying. Thankfully I lost this bet so received a payout of £17.52 at Betfair, leaving me with a loss of £2.48.
My next move was to bet £20 that the HT/FT result in the match between Chelsea and Tottenham would be Tottenham/Chelsea at odds of 27 and to place a lay of £20 against Tottenham/Chelsea at odds of 28. Again, slightly risky since I was overlaying. Thankfully I lost this bet so received a payout of £19.02 at Betfair, leaving me with a small loss of £0.98.
I then bet £10 that the correct score in the match between Tottenham and Bolton would be 3-2 at odds of 35 and placed a lay of £10.95 against a 3-2 score at odds of 32. I lost this bet - and since the odds had been so good I received a payout of £10.41 from Betfair which gave me a (small) profit of £0.41. Decent!
I was now onto betting with the free money. I bet £14 that the correct score in the match between Sheffield United and Chesterfield would be 3-2 at odds of 29 and placed a lay of £13.09 against a 3-2 result at odds of 30. I lost this bet so receied a payout of £12.38 at Betfair.
My final bet was to bet £11 that the correct score in the match between Bayern Munich and Marseilles would be 3-2 at odds of 40 and to place a lay of £12.64 against a 3-2 result at odds of 34. Thankfully I lost this bet, and thanks to the brilliant odds I stumbled across I received a payout of £12.01 from an £11 bet. Good to end on a high note!
Profit from this chapter: £12.38 + £12.01 + £0.41 - £2.48 - £0.98 = £21.34
Overall profit: £679.17 + £21.34 = £700.51
