Attention timalloy and all other gamblers.
There's an offer on tonight from a bookmaker (whose name is the amount of days in a normal year) for the Man City v PSG game which is no lose.
Bet up to £50 before the game and they'll give you a risk free bet up to the value of your stake for in play.
So bet on something with only 2 outcomes such as both teams to score in the first half. Put the worse of the 2 odds on before the game and put the better of the 2 odds as soon as it kicks off, you can't lose.
I think that's correct anyway.

JimTim, that's one way of doing it but it can quite often yield quite small amounts of winnings.
The trick some of my mates use is to put the £50 on a young player who's only there to sit on the bench as first scorer a few days before the game (Christopher N'kunku for PSG v Chelsea is one I can remember) . By the day of the game that player has usually been taken off the first scorers list and the initial £50 bet is classed as void and they get it refunded. This means that the £50 free in-play bet can be put on a correct score or BTTS etc. to gain a much bigger profit.
It's not 100% that the first scorer bet will be voided before the game and it's also not 100% that he won't get on the pitch at 0-0 but it would be pretty unheard of.

Jimtim and Kevbhoy this is far too complicated for an old f@rt like myself, ED007 please help explain the mathematics behind it to me and other posters on here lol.
{Ed007's Note - Oooffttt! No chance mate, it all goes over my head as soon as something isn't like 4/1 or 5/1 with odds.}

Take double chance option and bet either team to win then with the free bet take the draw if either team wins u get a small profit if your lucky and its a draw be a nice return for your £50.

Interesting that kev bud, might keep an eye on a situation like that in future. Tonight is the 3rd time i'm on this deal, so just thought I would share to those who might not have seen it. The first time I won a tenner (better than a kick in the sack) and the second time I won 150. Virtually the same odds tonight for BTTS in 45'. But the beautiful side is i'm not risking anything essentially. Now I've mentioned it no doubt somebody will score in the first few seconds before I've had chance to put the in play bet on.

Tell you what Tim, you provide the tips and leave the rest to me. 50/ 50 split haha.

{Ed023's Note - Funnily enough a few months back, I was instructed to do the bet JimTim is referring to - I never bothered though.}

Ha ha ED007 I got into trouble with the maths geeks on here a while back by putting up a tip regarding extra time, my thinking went that if you bet on BOTH teams in extra time and BOTH teams on penalties, once game entered extra time because these odds were so big at start of game, no matter the outcome you would come out ahead money wise, several "geeks" pointed out the error of my ways but somehow I DID come out on top when I tried this bet for real in a CL game. But back came the maths experts saying I was lucky and most times you lose.
{Ed007's Note - You always seem to do well with your bets. I really don't get why you get the grief (and disagrees lol) you get.}

Ooft Ed, I think it beginning to dawn on you exactly who hits Timbo's disagree button I have only been pointin' it out for donks (y)
12 Apr 2016 18:18:46
Gotcha ED007 I have it in writing you state I "always do well with me bets" lol
As for the grief, I just suck it up, I put myself out there to be shot at and I enjoy annoying all the anonymous disagrees, some of the disagrees are people who dislike gambling those I get and respect their opinion the others just disagree with me for the sake of it, besides counting all my winnings take up much of my time (I WISH)

I'll try and explain it for u Tim its called a risk free bet therefore if u play it simple like the option I posted above u will be guaranteed a profit
You have to place a pre match 50 quid bet on the selected match on offer once the match starts they will give u a in play bet to cover your initial bet so u can't lose if you do it wisely
There is loads a ways to turn a profit just need to find the way that suits u best to maximise your profit.

Used tims tips once and got £50!
Hail hail timalloy.

Doing similar in a different account but on who will qualify, for better 'guaranteed odds'.
12 Apr 2016 19:27:40
Actually don't take the to qualify option. My mate here seems to think I won't be able to select to qualify in play. Is this correct Ed023?
