So the bet365 in play offer is back for the last time this season and yes it is free money!

Place a £50 pre match bet on Double Chance, Real Madrid or Athletic Madrid. Then once the game goes in play place a £50 bet on the draw. Obviously there are other ways of doing this but this is the way I do it. Grin

Will they allow this though? Because effectively you've covered all options. Most bookies wouldn't allow that

I awlays do under 5.5 or 6.5 goals then do a first goalscorer or 0-0 HT with the free bet

Fair play to them, it's a generous offer.

But almost everyone who takes advantage of it will simply bet the 'free money' back.

That's what gamblers do.

It's amazing that the other firms haven't worked that out.

Gone for a different route this time, £50 on Real Madrid to lift the trophy returns £75. A £50 free in play bet on A.Madrid to lift the trophy returns around £130. So if Real Madrid win I get my in play bet back plus the £25 profit on Real winning. If A.Madrid lift the trophy I get about £30 profit. Grin

If they enforce their rules about not covering every outcome, you will lose the free bet.

Dangerous game playing the 2 way market because of their arbitrage rules.
Betting on the win-draw-win market safer (1 on Betfair, 1 pre-game on b365, and bet the one you fancy least in-play seconds after they kick-off).

CARE: Make sure that you have £50 in your b365 account at kick-off, as it will be debited (refunded of course at the final whistle if your FIRST in-play bet loses).

Perfect. Draw bet wins and the other either wins at 13/8 or money back.
Report pauliow May 25, 2014 11:23 AM BST
I backed the draw for £50 @ 3.3 which won. As soon as the game went in play I backed Real for £50 @ 2.1 and they have refunded this £50 stake. Is this right? I thought they only refunded the first bet stake if that lost!
Report joe39 May 25, 2014 2:15 PM BST
Settled correctly - the pre-match bet doesn't matter if it won or lost, the only thing that counts is that the "first in-play bet lost", so that's refunded.

I see, thanks joe39.

Wish I stuck to my original plan and back the draw in play would have been about £50+ of free money. Nevermind Silly

And I backed AM for £50 @ 3.95 on betfair and greened that for £78 profit at about 1.5. Overall about £193 up so a good evening
