Thought you were doing your deliberate mistake thing with the grammar, like in your avatar. Genuinely made me smile.

If not, we should write a letter of complaint to betfair.

Betfair promo def decent value as long as you can find a few bets where they are reasonable competitive.  The actual amount of value tho is very small, so just a quick look on oddschecker is the max you should do.

Imagine your first double is £25 on two 1/2 shots, but the are actually 4/6 shots.  Your double is going to hit 36% of the time so you get 56.25 x .36 as a return, so that's £20.25 return for the £25 stake. 

You then get a £25 bet, 64% of the time when you lose.  If you put that on a similar double your expected return would be £7.20 (£25 x 1.25 x .64 x .36).

If you put your free bet on two 2-1 shots that were actually 5-2, you would get a return of £200 8.2% of the time.  So the overall equity would be about £10.45 (.64 x £25 x 8 x .82).

So realistically you would prob get value of around £30 for the £25 bet by doing a shortish price double then a couple of 2-1s for the free bet.

Hi Ironsides,

Free bet on lose should be done with high odds for the first bet. If the free multiple bet is Stake Not Returned then that should be done at high odds too.
It's also important that parts of the multiple are close to the true odds.

Think it will be difficult to find higher odds football bets close to true odds.

The double needs to be high odds not the individual legs.

Rather than find two high priced things at true odds you could find one and then find one short priced. or "shorter priced" option.

* Chompy don't hate me.

MK Dons to beat Peterborough at London Road with btts is 5/1 with 364 and betaway for those that can.

Posh's first choice centre backs (Baldwin and Zaukani) are out and MK have strengthened this year with some firepower. Afobe from Arsenal on loan, Will Grigg and Danny Green. So I expect them to score goals and come at us. They always build this up as a big rivalry yet only 600 of them have bought tickets for the 35 minute journey.

After the shameful midweek performance at Pompey, Posh have Taylor's flair returning and possibly the introduction of our Turkish Delight Erhun Oztumer but the injuries at the back will cost us for the next month, especially looking at the fixtures.

Think MK will edge the game despite Posh being at home.

£20 is the suggested bet.
