Making A Million From Sports Betting March 2024

2024 started positively, but it has been a while since I strung a few strong months of profit together.

March marked the 84th consecutive month of betting for myself, let’s dig straight into the results.

Value Betting Results

The value betting strategy continued a strong start to produce some decent profits in March. In terms of staking I keep it simple and look to win £150 per bet, adjusting the stake for the odds. The only times I deviate from this is when I think there is a lot of value in a selection and then I increase my bet to win slightly more.

Most on my value betting is done on the exchanges and a couple small bookmakers I have left. Value betting on the exchanges is different from soft bookmakers in that I try to preempt market moves, by reading the market. This doesn’t work all the time but works enough to be profitable.

On soft bookmakers its simple a case of finding odds higher then exchange/Pinnacle.

Overall there were 214 bets and a profit of £1919 was made.

FTS Systems

I stopped running my FTS systems in March, I did intend to see it out till the end of the season. However I really wanted to cut down on the amount of time I spend betting.

Many reading this will be familiar with the Pareto principle, where 80% of your results comes from 20% of your work.

I have felt for a while now that the most profitable strategies I use are those of that I have developed. Over the years I have tried a lot of tipsters/services etc and found them to be profitable, to a smaller extent. In terms of the contribution to overall profits.

Personally I feel that time would have been better focused on staking more on my own strategies and improving them. This is no knock on FTS, over the two years I have used it, it has been profitable even after accounting for fees.

Overall in the two years a profit of £1346 was made from FTS. Subscription for it has cost £998 in total. Including subscriptions £348 was made.

However with UK betting industry being what is it at the moment. Putting energy into things outside betting and focusing only on my strongest strategies has meant FTS has been put to the side for the foreseeable future.

Bets And Beers

Bets and Beers needed to rebound after a tough start to 2024 and a profitable month in March was had.

The LTD service made 24 points in March and the LTHTD (Lay the half time draw) lost -4.7 points.

Overall following the service to £10 stakes made £193.

Similar to FTS this will be the last month I will be following Bets and Beers. Again it is no knock on the service, in fact B&B is really easy to follow and historically very profitable. It’s a decision made on lowering the amount of time I spend on betting.

Horse Racing System

On to the horse racing system which has a had a rough start to 2024. This is a system I use on the betting exchanges mostly but when possible also back with bookmakers. Surprisingly Copybet have been pretty happy to let me bet smaller stakes for about 6 months now.

Props to them for that, don’t know how others have found them?

It requires me to be at the computer at certain hours of the day, so there are several days this month where I wasn’t able to bet

Overall the system lost -£19 this month and had been on a disappointing run. Writing this 7 days into April it is now showing signs of its early promise. Having rebounded from a heavy losing period.

This is how the system looks overall (Including early April results) staking £10- £20 per selection, it beats the Betfair SP consistently. Volume is high with multiple bets most days. Hopefully it can go on a decent run in the next few months

The Value Collective

The Value Collective is a Telegram group where I send out selections based on value bets available on the exchanges and mma/boxing selections. The focus is on the stronger selections which also have enough liquidity on the exchanges to share.

If you are able to use 0% commission accounts a profit of 9.2 points would have been made. 2% commission accounts would have made 8.6 points.

A pretty decent month overall from these selections, my profit to £150 a point is around £1350. I say around because I use both 0% and 2% accounts depending on the bet.

Overall the service is in profit by 23 points to a 2% commission account since it started.

Thoughts Going Forward

Strong month of results and I enjoyed the extra time away from betting. I still enjoy sports betting and its had a profound positive effect on my life. It’s taught me a lot about variance, patience and the ability to try and analyze situations better. A lot of those skills are transferable and can be applied to fitness, business etc.

If you can gamify different aspects of your life it makes it much easier. For me, making sports betting simply a game of beating the closing odds made it much easier. Other aspects of life are the same if you build your understanding of the rules.

Dropping services/tipsters outside my own strategies could make this blog a lot less appealing. As I don’t give away exactly what I do with my own strategies and it isn’t replicable by just reading this blog. Where as something like bets and beers was entirely replicable.

This is the 84th month of consecutive betting, pretty much on a daily basis. Perhaps it is just a little bit of burn out on my part. However come September I may feel different and start adding services/tipsters back in.

Hope you had a profitable March, will be back at the end of April with results.

Winners And Losers From Cheltenham Festival 2024

The greatest sporting spectacle in horse racing is over for another 12 months, but the memories from the Cheltenham Festival in 2024 will live long in the memory.

Willie Mullins enjoyed another dominant Festival in the Cotswolds, while Ireland bested the British to land the Prestbury Cup. However, who were some of the biggest winners and losers from the Festival this year?

If you are looking for bookmaker that offers competitive odds and bonuses for future UK and US race events. Twinspires is a good option for US based bettors.

Galopin Des Champs Emerges As One Of The Greats

The superstar performance of the week was saved for the biggest race at the Festival, as Galopin Des Champs highlighted why he is considered by most as one of the greatest staying chasers of the modern era. Once again, the Mullins runner was forced to do things the hard way.Paul Townend needed to contend with a loose horse for the majority of the closing stages.

However, he was backed as if losing his Gold Cup was out of the question before the race, and he stylishly finished over three lengths clear of Gerri Colombe. Mullins deserves all the praise for a stunning training performance. The eight-year-old already having landed the Irish Gold Cup and Savills Chase before another dominant performance at the home of jumps racing.

Miserable Week For Nicky Henderson

It could be argued that the British may have been closer to the Irish in terms of race winners had it not been for Nicky Henderson’s stable form throughout the week. It was always going to be a testing period for Henderson, with Constitution Hill ruled out before the meet.

Things didn’t get much easier on the opening day, with all Nico De Boinville rides pulled up before the finish. Henderson’s misery was compounded later in the week when hot favourite Sir Gino was ruled out of the Triumph Hurdle, before a decision was made for Shishkin to avoid his date with destiny in the Gold Cup.

Ballyburn Dazzles In Novice Hurdle Division

One of the best backed Irish runners of the week was Ballyburn, with the Mullins runner ultimately opting to step back up to two miles and five to compete in the Gallagher Novices’ Hurdle. The novice produced one of the best displays of the week, finishing a stunning 13 lengths clear of Jimmy Du Seuil to land a first Festival win.

However, it would be hard to bet against it being his last success at Cheltenham. Connections will now have a huge decision to make, with a potential eye-watering showdown with Constitution Hill on the cards if he remains over hurdles. But, the Gold Cup dream could be alive with Ballyburn, meaning it is highly likely that we will be seeing him over fences at the start of next season.

Champion Hurdle Flatters To Deceive

A lot of attention on the opening day was placed on the Champion Hurdle following the announcement that Constitution Hill would be missing the Festival. State Man was well backed before the off, but the Mullins runner wasn’t exactly the breathtaking winner that fans would have been hoping to see. The race as a whole was also negatively impacted following the decision for Lossiemouth to run in the Mares’ Hurdle.

Last year’s Triumph victor was dominant against her own sex, and it’s likely that she could have thrown down a major challenge to her stable mate if going up against the boys. Dilution of races remains a key question for the BHA to address, as we could have witnessed a number of matchups for the ages.

New Gold Cup Hopes Emerge

There’s no denying that Galopin Des Champs will likely go off for next year’s Gold Cup as a solid favourite once again, but the picture for the biggest race of the week looks fascinating at this stage. Fact To File has been touted as a potential rival to his stablemate in the race next year, and he delivered an excellent round of jumping to land the Brown Advisory Novices’ Chase over an extended three miles.

Grey Dawning could yet emerge as a new British hope for the Gold Cup after winning the Turners Novices’ Chase in stunning fashion. French dreams will also be alive in the Gold Cup next year, with the incredibly progressive Il Est Francais set to have some big British commitments next season, beginning with the King George at Kempton on Boxing Day.

Fresh Questions Over Competitiveness

The Irish dominance was clear for all to see at the Festival once again this year. A lot was made that it was potentially all about the dominance of Willie Mullins, but the Irish still would have won the Prestbury Cup by a 15-12 margin even without the Mullins winners.

Competitive races were few and far between at the Festival this year, with seven races of the 27 having an odds-on favourite. That is the highest percentage in the history of the Festival!

Cheltenham Odds 2024

Want to Learn About the Cheltenham Odds? Here’s Everything You Need to Know

With Cheltenham just around the corner, the odds and predictions are already coming in droves. Everyone has their own favourite, and as the excitement grows, bettors are becoming increasingly interested in who is going to come out on top. With that starting date looming so close, we already have a pretty good idea of which jockeys and horses are likely going to be contending.

In this article, we will tell you everything you need to know about the Cheltenham odds, going over the favourites, different betting options, best bookmakers, and more.

Let’s get right into it!

Cheltenham Top Jockey Odds

Cheltenham 2024 is set to be jam-packed with talented riders and promising stars, so much so that there is more than a little wiggle room when it comes to predictions on which riders are going to come out on top. However, as is always the case, there are a few favourites that have some incredible Cheltenham odds.

Perhaps the most notable of which is Paul Townend, the talented star under the tutelage of Willie Mullins. Paul leads the pack with odds of 2/5, putting him comfortably ahead of his competition and showcasing his skill and dedication.

Following shortly behind is Jack Kennedy at 4/1. Jack is an incredibly talented rider trained by Gordon Elliot, and many believe he is one of the few candidates who may be able to stand up to Paul Townend.

For an underdog option, there’s 2021 Cheltenham Top Jockey, Rachael Blackmore, at 14/1. Training under Henry de Bromhead and having a promising lead-up to Cheltenham, many believe Blackmore may come out of nowhere and dominate the competition.

Cheltenham Ante-post Odds

Cheltenham ante-post odds allow bettors to place a wager on their favourite horse well in advance, usually weeks or months ahead, with the hopes of getting a bigger payout than they would have if they placed the same wager on the day of the race. This option is great for those that are very confident their bet is big value. It allows you to lock in good odds well before the start of the race and the mjority of betting money has come in.

However, this also comes with drawbacks. Not only could you lose your wager entirely if your horse doesn’t run, but you could also miss out on receiving a better return on your wager if the odds decrease and your horse still wins. Luckily, there is a work-around to the first issue ¾ the non-runner no bet (NRNB). This simply means your bet is returned if your horse doesn’t run.

Cheltenham Each Way Odds

Each way odds are a popular betting option in general, but for Cheltenham, they are even more sought-after. This is because bookmakers compete to give bettors the best odds, leading to increasing returns and a ton of value.

But what are each way odds?

Well, each way odds are composed of two different bets. One bet is for the horse to win, and the other is for the horse to finish in a specific position. This gives you two chances of winning, making it a popular option among bettors. As we mentioned earlier, this type of bet is made even more enticing by the numerous incentives offered by sportsbooks. Allowing bettors to get big payouts even if their horse finishes as far back as seventh or eighth place.

Cheltenham Tips and Tricks

In order to get the most out of the Cheltenham Festival, there are a few tips and tricks you can utilise to get an edge and improve your chances of being successful. First, make sure you do your research. The easiest way to profit from a big horse racing festival such as Cheltenham is by using bookmaker promotions and boosts that are on often.

Over Cheltenham there will so many matched betting opportunities to take advantage of. You could lock in potentially hundreds of pounds in profit just by picking off the best offers.

Statistics have always been a key component for successful sports betting. Those that know how to use them effectively have been able to generate a lucrative income from the world of sports betting.

Many of the pioneers of sports betting such as Tony Bloom and Matthew Benham used expected goals long before everyone else. You can find XG figures on plenty of statistical websites today however previously this was only used by football bettors at the top of their game.

Having members of his team break down individual plays in American football and removing points when these situations occurred via luck.

Statistics may reveal a lot about a team or individual player, including their strengths, limitations, and performance in various circumstances.

Making A Million From Sports Betting Jan and Feb 2024 Results

2023 wasn’t the strongest year for me in betting terms. Although it was profitable with a total of £15,330 being made. It was the worst year since I started betting seriously.

In total over the last 6 months of the 2023 a small profit of £537 was made. It was the first time I have really ever felt like I was wasting my time. When I first started this, I used mostly matched betting and arbitrage which is easy money, without being arrogant (These strategies are an easy way to make money but obviously limitations etc put a stop to it.)

As time went on I started to add casino offers, value betting, followed tipsters and developed some of my own methods. I always expected more variance but I still continued to win pretty much every month. Up until last year when losing month which were previously very rare, became much more frequent.

So 2024 marked a nice fresh start. My hope was that this patch was just a run of tough variance and that winning months would become the norm again.

Let’s take a look at results from January and February to see if that happened.

Value Betting Results

Value betting went about as well as it could have to start the year.

These bets are taken mostly on the exchanges, with a couple of small bookmaker accounts I have left and occasionally in shops. (Although I am now barred from the local Betfred). This year I have been slightly more selective with value bets, trying to leave out the ones that I think are marginal. In previous years I have always been about hammering volume and taking any edges even if they are small.

In total there were 149 bets and a total profit of £3570 was made.

My staking is very simple I look to win around £150 per bet, adjusting the stake size for odds.

FTS Systems

FTS is a service that provides historical data and models to help you profit from the football betting markets. Currently I am running 10 systems using FTS which are mixture are strategies.

In total a profit of £237 has been made from the FTS systems this year. I won’t go into too much detail about systems as everyone that joins FTS will use a different approach. So my results/systems are not really applicable to what others may be doing.

Bets And Beers

Bets and Beers has had a rough start to 2024 and I had had couple of message s about it which I will address here. I follow the lay the draw part of the service and ay the half time draw.

The LTD draw service lost £580 (58 points) in Jan/Feb.

HTLTD lost £90 (9 points) to £10 stakes in Jan/Feb.

Not the best start for the service however to put it into perspective. Last year the LTD strategy won 218 points £2180 to £10 stakes and the HTLTD won 74 points (£740 to £10 stakes).

The long term LTD graph going back to 2021 is very solid and when your laying at average odds of 7.78 you have to expect the losing runs to be pretty rough. However your bank should be set up to sustain these periods.

Here is the long term results sheet for Bets and Beers

Will Bets and Beers be profitable in 2024?

There is no guarantee, but nothing suggests to me that this isn’t just a tough period. I think often people join services after a good period and then are shocked when a drawdown happens. This is the reality of sports betting its not always sunshine and rainbows.

Horse Racing System

One of the bright points of last year was developing a horse racing system. This was working very well and making consistent profits.

However recently results have seen it fall off a cliff. Not really sure why, I tracked the odds I was backing at, in comparison to the Betfair SP. They are consistently higher.

The system is based on sound logic. So it all goes back to our old friend variance again. Overall the system is still in profit by about £400 however had previously been up to a high of £1200.

I run the system on small stakes £5 to £20 (depending on odds). Will give it another few months and decided whether to bin it or keep it.

A total of -£302 was lost on horse racing.

Casino Offers

I have done five high risk casino offers this year. Doesn’t seem to be a huge amount of stuff to do anymore, but I do get a few decent reload offers from time to time.

Unfortunately I lost every single of these.

A loss of -£500 was made from casino offers.

MMA

Jan and Feb saw a loss of -£817 for mixed martial arts and some in-play bets. Not a huge amount of volume here and MMA stakes are £200 a point so not overly concerned. Last year was strong and I still think I have a good edge in the markets.

The Value Collective

The Value Collective is a Telegram group where I send out selections based on value bets on the exchanges and mma/boxing selections. The focus is on the stronger selections which also have enough liquidity on the exchanges to share.

A total of 120 bets were sent out over Jan and Feb. A total profit of 4.19 points for 0% commission accounts was made and 2.54 points for 2% commission accounts.

Not amazing numbers, not a disaster either.

The service is aimed at people that can take a longer term view of their betting and aren’t effected by short terms variance.

Jan/Feb Totals

Value Betting/Trading – £3570

FTS – £237

Bets and Beers – -£670

Horse Racing – -£302

Casino Offers – -£500

MMA/Inplay – -£817

Total Made In Jan/Feb 2024

+£1520

Overall Profit Since The Challenge Began

+£185,182

Thoughts Going Forward

Would have been nice to come out of the gates with a big profit to start 2024 but happy to see at least a positive start. Still feels like a battle of attrition at the moment, build up some momentum and then get wiped out on a bad weekend. Slowly however there seems to be some progress and a big upswing can happen at any point.

It only takes one or two really good months to make a year. In 2022 there was a two month period where £15k profit was made, which nearly equals last year’s total. Having spoken to sports bettors that have done much bettor then me and won 7 figures. Rough years can happen even to the best bettors (which I am not).

I have no plan on changing anything at the moment, will run things as they are until the end of the football season and then look at potentially changing things.

Thanks for reading, see you next month.

Making A Million From Sports Betting 2023 Year In Review

Alright that is another year dusted off in the Making a Million challenge.

Heading into 2023 I was coming off my most profitable year of betting so far, with 2022 showing a profit of £39,845. Going back to last years review I set myself a challenge of pushing towards £50k profit in 2023.

Let’s see if that happened!

Making A Million

Value Betting Results

Last year value betting was the strongest part of the portfolio generating a profit of £33,942.

Value Betting 2023

This year whilst it was still profitable results were quite different and there was a lot more volatility throughout the year.

After a total of 3168 bets a profit of £8027 was made from value betting.

Let’s take a look at last years graph for comparison.

Value Betting 2022

About 2000 less bets this year but my approach was exactly the same. Look to beat the closing line consistently with various methods, stakes were also the same as last year.

The difference I think pretty much comes down to variance and perhaps the markets that I am betting in have changed slightly. Last year I did note that I felt I was running over expectation and this year I think things evened out and I ran below what was expected.

Won’t be changing this strategy because it is still profitable, hopefully will get a better run of things this year.

MMA

I was pretty surprised when I looked at the graph for 2023 because I performed way better betting mixed martial arts then I thought I did. However all the profit came in the first half of the year which you will see is a recurring theme throughout this post

In total I made 111 bets and a total profit of £5555 was made. Most of the bets were made on the exchanges but I also bet some in Betfred shops and also in shop terminals. Betfred did ban me from shops late on the year so looks like I will be mainly exchange betting this year and on the terminals in other shops.

FTS Systems

FTS is a service that provides historical data and models to help you profit from the football betting markets. My results for this service include the end of the 2022/2023 season and beginning of the 2023 season.

Currently I am running 10 systems using FTS and the total profit for the year is £176, in 2022 a profit of £1235 was made. So again similar to value betting there has been a drop in profit this year. Stakes have remained the same although they are different for each strategy.

Not much to say here will crack on till the end of 2023/2024 season and see where we end up.

Bets And Beers

Next up is Bets And Beers which is a lay the draw service with several years of profit behind it. Let’s look at my results follow the lay the half time draw method and first half goal method.

Bets and Beers

Pretty rough to go from £3500 in profit to finishing the year at £378 in total profit. Overall though it was completely I added the first half goal method which is strongly correlated to laying the first half draw. Staking £50 on each selection and hit a drawdown period which basically what the losses would have been.

Should add though that the Bets and Beers service itself which uses other methods then the two I used above. Performed excellently and made a profit for the year of over 400 points.

Football Trading Club

The Football Trading Club was a service that I had looked at for a while and after a successful review period I added it in the second half of the year and decided to follow the home values system.

Football Trading Club

Like a lot of things in the second half of the year. It went pear shaped as soon I as started putting real money down. This coincided with drawdowns across the board in October so I pulled the plug on it.

A total of -£1015 was lost after 134 selections.

Should mention much like Bets and Beers, the service had profitable year and my results are a small sample using only one strategy.

Horse Racing System

One of the few bright lights of the second half of 2023 was developing a winning horse racing system. Going through an unfamiliar drawdown lasting months I pulled my finger out at started looking at other potential edges. Found a horse racing strategy I thought would work and after testing followed it to £10 stakes.

This system made £710 profit after a total of 843 bets.

Horse Racing System

Quite excited to see where this system goes, theses results are from prices at 11.00 mainly from the exchanges but used a few smaller bookmakers. System is also profitable at BSP to a lesser extent.

Everything Else

Everything includes casino offers, free tipsters and any bets/trades that I don’t record on an individual spreadsheet but do go down on my daily profit and loss.

A profit of £1499 was made.

2023 Totals

Value Betting/Trading – £8027

2023 Monthly

Thoughts Going Forward

Disappointing to go from my best year of betting to worst year back to back. However one of the positives was that during the drawdown and six month breakeven period, I didn’t tilt once. No silly bets, chasing or broken laptops, I was frustrated but ultimately believe that everything I was doing is +EV and in the long term will win.

In 2024 my focus will mainly be on my own betting/trading, at the start of 2023 I believed I had basically cracked it and didn’t really look to improve. The first six months went how I thought it would, however the last six months were a wake up call. The game always evolves and I need to be constantly evolving with it to continue to profit, tweaking existing edges and finding new ones.

Not going to set any monetary goals as 2023 proved that a lot of that is out of my hands and variance can run strongly either way. However what I can do is work harder then last year, analyze my betting more thoroughly and keeping developing as a sports bettor.

In terms of services I will be following Bets And Beers this year. Pre match ltd and ltd at half time, along with FTS.

Other then that I will keep an eye out for promising services that work on the exchanges. However the main focus will be my own stuff, as really that’s where I am most confident and when things go wrong its easier to analyze/improve my own betting as I understand why I placed every single bet.

The Value Collective

At the end of last year I started a Telegram group and started sending out some of my strongest selections that were backable on the exchanges. The feedback from the group was positive and the results have also been profitable.

At the start of this year I set this up as a paid service via Kofi.

These selections are a mixture of pre match and live football selections, UFC and occasionally other sports. All backable on the exchanges

Value Collective

Results so far so a profit of 16.51 points after 102 bets.

Someone staking £10 a point would be up £165, a £100 point bettor would be up £1650.

You Can View Results Here

The current return on investment from these selections is 11.3% when including 2% commission.

If you are interested in the service it costs £13.99 a month and runs via Telegram.

That wraps everything up, hopefully you had a profitable 2023 and I will be back at the start of Feb 2024 with a reports on how this year started.

Loophole Trader Review 2024 – Worth The Money?

In the sports betting markets we are always on the look out for new ways to make money.

Markets evolve over time and old methods sometimes don’t work as well as they used too. It’s always exciting when a new service comes around that offers a new edge.

So the question is does Loophole Trader offer a real edge?

What is Loophole Trader?

Loophole trader is a service that offers a number of strategies. It has one bullet proof strategy that is tried and tested over a large sample size. Makes sense logically and has shown to be profitable, this strategy is the one that we will focus on in this review.

The strategy uses the promotion “Best Odds Guaranteed” which is something that many bookmakers offer for horse racing. When a bookmaker offers BOG (Best Odds Guaranteed) if the price you take drifts in odds and has a higher starting price (SP) then your initial bet. It is paid out at the SP price.

Along with a bookmaker that offers the BOG promotion you also need access to a betting exchange. The method will work with Betfair, Smarkets, Betdaq or Matchbook.

Loophole trader uses a clever strategy to take advantage of this promotion to make consistent profits.

Loophole Trader Bookmakers

The creator of the system kindly gave me a list of bookmakers that you can use for the strategy. In order of best to worst, given feedback from existing users of the service.

Bet365
SkyBet
Paddy Power
William Hill
BetVictor/Parimatch
Betway
Vbet
Livescorebet
Betfred
Coral
VirginBet
888
Ladbrokes
Marathonbet
Boylesports

There are possibly other smaller named bookmakers that you could use however access to any of the above should allow you to make a decent profit from the system.

Results

Results using the strategy have been very impressive. Loophole trader has a safe method and a higher risk method that you can implement.

Starting off with the safe method you can see that results are very consistent. The graph looks very much like that of a sports arbitrage or a matched betting strategy.

Which is a good category to put the loophole trader method in. It works in a very similar fashion.

The results show a profit of £2093.58 after 275 trades.

This is using £250 stakes. It should be noted that this £250 is not at risk with the method as long as you follow instructions correctly. The stakes are used as trading capital for small consistent wins or the occasional small loss.

Next up is the higher risk method.

Although as you can see by the results it isn’t very volatile and has actually produced greater profits over the long term. The strategy is slightly different to the safe method but uses the same logic.

A profit of £2888.57 has been made using £250 stakes on the high risk method.

Can You Use Loophole Trader Solely On The Exchanges?

There is a Betfair only method that is in development, that has shown in early testing to be profitable. The sample size however is very small and would need a much larger set of results to say whether or not it will be profitable long term.

Alongside this there is also a method called “In-play Maestro” which is a Betfair only method and an each way value betting bot.

The only strategy that I am confident to say is bullet proof and will make money long term is the bookmaker loophole method.

The Loophole Trader Method

Whilst obviously I can’t give away the Loophole trader method what I can say is that it does work. In the days before I was limited from pretty all bookmakers in the UK. I used a method that worked on exactly the same logic as this one and it proved very profitable.

The system comes as a course that is split into several different modules. There are videos examples provided so that you can learn how the strategy works. With all the possible scenarios that you may encounter covered and advice given on when to exit a trade.

A recommended minimum bank of £500 is suggested to get started with Loophole trader. However a larger bank would enable you to stake higher and cover more selections.

Given that Loophole trader is only a one off fee. Starting with a small bankroll and building it up is definitely something that you could do.

Loophole Trader Cost

Loophole Trade costs a flat fee of £97.

Once paid you get access to the this system along with the Betfair systems that are in development. There is also a Telegram group and email support.

The system creator also offers a free week of training where you watch him implement the system and have one to one training if you need it.

Is it worth it?

The decline in money that you can make from matched betting offers and arbitrage betting makes the Loophole trader method a nice addition to any betting portfolio. It is a method that should also allow you to go under the bookmaker radar for longer then traditional arbitrage

Although limits and restrictions from bookmakers will come eventually. Unfortunately any method that wins in the long term eventually ends in account limits or closures.

That fact should not put you off as this is what happens to all profitable bettors, it s the nature of the game.

Conclusion

Overall I am happy to recommend Loophole Trader. Anyone that has access to a couple of the bookmakers listed in this article should be able to recoup the fee for the method, alongside making a nice additional profit.

If you have access to the majority of bookmakers that offer BOG, then there is the potential to make thousands from this strategy.

5 Profitable Matched Betting Strategies 2024 – Make Money On Gubbed Accounts

So you have received the dreaded email!
You are not eligible to receive sports betting promotions anymore.

Make Money Gubbed Matched Betting Accounts

Being gubbed is inevitable if you end up making a long term profit from bookmakers. whether its from the worst bookmakers in the UK or some of the more reputable ones. The simple fact is bookmakers don’t want you to win money.

Whilst you can prolong being limited by a bookmaker for a while. If you continue to win money this will happen.

This is annoying news, however it is still very possible to make a decent level of profit from other betting strategies. Strategies that don’t require the use of promotional offers, which are profitable even on gubbed accounts.

Having started matched betting ten years ago and still managing to make £20k+ a year from the sports betting markets.

I can tell you from experience it is still very possible to make a good income!

If you learn better through video I have attached one below that covers “How To Make Money From Gubbed Betting Accounts.”

Watch this video on YouTube

Let’s take a look at the profitable strategies you can use even after you have been gubbed from promotional offers.

Matched Betting Make Money From Gubbed Accounts – 5 Strategies

Strategy Number 1 – Casino Offers

Casino offers are still a great way to make an extra income. You can easily find £30 -£50 in expected value from casino offers each week which adds up over the course of a year.

Matched Betting Gubbed Casino Offers
These offers work because much like matched betting bonuses that you receive. These casino offers give you a mathematical advantage over the bookmaker/casino.

The big difference with casino offers is that you don’t win every time. However as you can see from the above graph. Over the long term if you do enough offers you will make a profit.

Make Money Matched Betting Gubbed Accounts — There are still some very good casino offers available!

To put it simply its like flipping a coin with a friend who gives you £1.20 every time it lands on heads. Whilst you give them £1 every time it lands on tails. You might lose the first few flips but over the long term you know you will come out with a profit.

Strategy Number 2 – Arbitrage Betting

Ok so you have lost your ability to use promotional offers for betting but your still allowed to stake without restrictions.

Perfect!! you can still take a bit more money out of the pocket of the bookmakers.

Arbitrage Gubbed Accounts

Above is a an example of a simple arbitrage bet between Bet365 and William Hill.

For the £200 we stake a guaranteed profit of £3.32 is made. Irrelevant of the result being over or under 2.5 goals.

This is what we can call an arbitrage bet.

Arbitrage bets happen when multiple bookmakers are offering odds on an event. Which when backed guarantee a profit no matter the outcome. You can also find arbitrage bets between exchanges and bookmakers, as you can see below we found a nice arbitrage bet using Oddsmonkey’s Software (Free Trial Available).

Arbitrage on Gubbed Matched Betting

An arbitrage bet means that all outcomes of an event are covered in order to make a profit.

You can still use this strategy on some limited accounts.

For example on my limited Bet365 I can win up to £200 on some markets. The same applies to my Skybet account, so I can use these accounts to make small profits on a weekly basis. There are also many smaller bookmakers that don’t offer any promotional offers but are useful for arbitrage betting.

Strategy Number 3 – Value Betting

Value betting is closely related to arbitrage betting.

In that we are looking for outliers in the betting markets.

Some bookmakers are much better then others at compiling and moving their odds when new information enters the markets. It has been proven that we can use the odds at these sharp bookmakers/betting exchanges to consistently find value with other bookmakers.

Rebelbetting Graph

There are numerous studies that show this is a long term winning strategy.

So again I will use the Oddsmonkey software to highlight what value bets look like.

All of the above selections are value bets. This is because the bookmakers are offering greater odds then the lay odds offered by the exchanges.

This is the same as an arbitrage bet.

However there will be instances where a selection may be a value bet but would not be an arbitrage bet due to the commission charged by the exchange or margin on a bookmaker selection. If you are a beginner I would stick with arbitrage bets however if you want to increase your turnover and profit long term. Value betting is a great way to do this and a strategy I utilize a lot.

Strategy Number 4 – Each Way Betting And Extra Places

Each way betting and extra places can be a great way to get some extra value out of your bookmaker accounts.

Even after being limited the majority of bookmakers will still pay out on extra places.

You can find these extra place markets on the golf markets and horse racing.

Now with these extra place markets you can look to use a strategy similar to arbitrage or use a value betting strategy. Both will be profitable long term.

Extra Place Matcher — Oddsmonkey highlight selections that are value by showing the selections in blue. Under the title “rate”.

Lets take a look at the top selection Tyrrell Hatton.
William Hill are offering 7 places (2 extra then normal) for this market, whilst the exchange Smarkets laying to 5 places.
In this situation we can back Hatton each way at odds of 23.00 and lay him at odds of 23.00 on Smarkets. This is similar to arbitrage where we cover all outcomes of an event.
These two bets put us at a position of 0 should Hatton win or lose.
The big upside to this trade is on the place market where we also place a lay bet. Which covers the first 5 places, to do this we would lose 0.53p overall.
However due to the extra two places on offer with William Hill.
A profit of £53.47 would be made if Hatton finishes 6th or 7th.
Giving us big value with implied odds of 101 that he finishes 6th or 7th

Extra places can also be used as a value betting strategy. As the betting exchanges indicate that given the extra places on offer this bet has value as a straight selection.

Strategy Number 5 – Betting Shops

Although you may be limited or banned online some betting shops offer exactly the same odds as their online counterpart.

For example I am no longer able to place any bets online with Betfred. However I have two shops local to me that I can bet in.

Make Money Gubbed Matched Betting Accounts

When an arbitrage bet or a value bet comes up for Betfred on my Oddsmonkey account I am able to go and place that bet physically in the shop.

There will also be odds boosts and promotions that you can still take advantage of.

If you happen to live in an area with a lot of betting shops it can be a great way to earn some tax free profit despite being banned online.

Make Money Gubbed Matched Betting Accounts – Conclusion

So there you have it 5 ways to make money from your gubbed matched betting accounts. Sports betting is an excellent way to make a tax free income online and using these 5 strategies can allow you to make thousands of pounds in profit every year.

Make Money Bet365 Gubbed Account — Despite being gubbed on Bet365 you can see that using these strategies has still been very profitable.

If you are looking to make money with your gubbed matched betting accounts.
Overall the best budget option to take advantage of all of these strategies is Oddsmonkey!
