So who got what then ?

Cheers Scooby , i bet £50 pre match on the double chance Man C and RM at 3/10.
And then £50 in play on the draw at 9/4 which returned £162.50.
I think you had your calculations wrong though as i make that a £62.50 profit.
Not bad for a risk free bet.

£62.50 is a nice profit, well done.

i don't know why 365 have the "no profit" clause in this offer because clearly they never enforce it.

What is this clause ? I've never noticed it to be honest .

It's a clause that says something like "Bet365 reserve the right to withhold the in-play offer if the customer places bets that will guarantee a profit" - or words to that effect.

Placing a pre-match double chance and an in-play draw will always guarantee a profit with this risk-free offer but i've never heard of anyone having the offer revoked, despite many, many people doing it.

That's why I always tend to lay off a bet at another bookies to cover it as i would hate to be the first one that 365 make an example of. Knowing my luck, that's exactly what would happen !

in-play refunds haven't been done yet - they've nearly always been paid out by now

Full clause from the T&C link in the Free In-Play bet email :

"Where any term of the offer or promotion is breached or there is any evidence of a series of bets placed by a customer or group of customers, which due to a deposit bonus, enhanced payments, free bets, risk free bets or any other promotional offer results in guaranteed customer profits irrespective of the outcome, whether individually or as part of a group, bet365 reserves the right to reclaim the bonus element of such offers and in their absolute discretion either settle bets at the correct odds, void the free and risk free bets or void any bet funded by the deposit bonus. In addition bet365 reserve the right to levy an administration charge on the customer up to the value of the deposit bonus, free bet, risk free bet or additional payment to cover administrative costs"

I've never heard of it being enforced either. I've always been slightly worried but 4 or 5 times i've guaranteed myself profits using this bet365 offer. Unfortunately today i decided to use my offer to secure a big free bet on RM winning. So my pre-match bet was the ManC/draw Double chance. Then i put £50 in-play on RM then another £22 in-play on RM as soon as match kicked off (as this was how much my pre-match bet would win me if RM failed to win). I've not yet had my £50 in-play losing bet refunded this time mind, and its now 11.50pm, but i'm sure that takes a while longer.

I can only guess it's been quite popular this time around with a premier league team in the semi-finals and it's just taking a while to process.

every other time i've done it, it's always been refunded around 11pm the same night as the game.

I'm guessing they get refunded at different times, whenever I've had mine refunded it's been about 3 hours (I'm guessing) after the game, usually in the middle of the night and it's there when I wake up.

Only managed £11.25 profit from the BTTS in the 1st half. Oh well, profit is profit. Didn't expect a 0-0 at all, thought City would be up for it as it's hard going to the Bernabau.

Also made a modest profit from the BTTS in the first half option. Profit is profit. I was toying with over 0.5 and under 0.5 goals and believe that last nights outcome would have made a very decent sum, but thats hindsight and itd probably have been 4-4 if id done that

Incase anyone cares, for future reference, the over and under 0.5 cards in the first ten minutes was not available once it kicked off.

It actually was - sort of, but it took me a while to find it.

If you go to the live in-play screen, there's a section about halfway down that reads something like "in the next 10 minutes".

It took me long enough to spot it, that when i placed it, it actually covered the period from 10:00 minutes to 19:59 .. and the first card was at 22 minutes

Just been on live chat with them and she said while she can't confirm, there's a "strong" chance the offer will be repeated for the second leg.

Yeah I went on as soon as the game kicked off and it was only showing corners, cards etc. from ten minutes onwards, so wouldnt have been able to have matched it with the pre-match to guarantee profit.

Fingers crossed for the second leg, love these offers!

Heh, Atlético beat Bayern Munich, winning me a little money, with the goalscorer being Saúl. All I could think was "better call Saúl!"

Sky Bet are currently offering 14/5 on Leicester to beat Man United at Old Trafford on Sunday. Decent odds if anyone fancies it. Knowing Man United they'll scrape a 0-0 draw now that I've backed it.

Wrong thread! Oops

Paddypower are doing their version of the in-play bet this weekend for the Arsenal V Norwich game. These offers are well worth a punt!

Nice find, think I will have a punt on that too.

Notice also that they are still doing the £20 free bet offer bet when deposit a fiver for new customers too!

Starting to get more confident about my atletico Madrid and Sevilla double for the two tournaments and if Harry Kane can hang on for top scorer as well.

That all sounds a bit greedy though

Nice. What odds did you get on your double? Sevilla are strong favourites to make final now. And (surprisingly?) Atletico are favourite of BayMun/Atl to make the final too.

194/1 double atletico 14 and Seville 12 coming into the knockout rounds

Very nice!

Sky Bet are doing Watford, Newcastle and Sunderland all to win tomorrow (Saturday). I normally do these treble price boosts. 11/1, max bet £16.50, it's normally £27.50.

Newcastle have Crystal Palace at home
Watford have Aston Villa at home
Sunderland have Stoke away

All of those I'd fancy to win given the forms of all teams involved. Or, rather, the poor form of the teams they're up against.

Nice find Munch, stuck a tenner of it so let's hope your right!

Villa have taken the lead against Watford. That in itself should tell you this bet is dead before it gets started

Villa 2-1 up now and Stoke taken the lead so that bet is definitely a dead duck

Bloody hell .. Watford have turned it around !

Pity Sunderland couldn't find one last goal ..
