Matched Betting Experiment - Day 12

 Current profit: $736.25.

Yesterday I mentioned that my profit here was not matching the profit tracking tool over at ProfitDuel. You may remember that I wasn't paying close attention to a bet I made last week and made a bet for 1 week later. That was a $100 bonus bet which will be settled tomorrow. I'm hoping that once this bet settles that the profits will match up again.

On to the bets. I was a busy boy and ended up placing 9 bets for the day. 4 risk free bets, 3 boosted bets, 1 bonus bet & 1 promo bet. The promo bet was from a daily offer I received. They basically gave me a free $10 bet to place on any parlay play. There may have been a way to turn this into guaranteed profit, but I simply placed a $10 bet knowing that a loss would result in no loss of profit.

Saturday morning. I wake up in Michigan and will be here until tomorrow. But same as home, my first priority is to check my bets.

The risk free bets lead me to these loses: -$23.88, -$22.30 & -$5.42 and one profit of $40. But these losses unlock $220 in bonus bets. My boost bets return: $3.46, $5 & $7.50. My promo bet loses. But my free bet pays a big profit of $150.10.

As my first time out of state, I assume I'll be learning quite a bit today. As you know, I'll be sharing what I learn with you tomorrow.

12 day profit: $890.71

I’ll be back tomorrow with an update.

Matched Betting Experiment - Day 3

First a quick correction. I forgot to deduct my qualifying bet loss of from yesterday from my total profit. I thought I lost $1, but after settling up the bet in ProfitDuel, I realized I actually lost 50¢. So my current profit is $178.99. I mentioned yesterday that I had a slick bet lined up and that I made a big mistake. Unfortunately my mistake prevented my great bet as well. So on to the mistake. I’ve used the same online username for a little over 20 years. I decided it would be a smart idea to not only use this same username with the sportsbooks, but to also start writing a diary on Reddit (with the same username) describing how I’m using matched betting to make a profit. Now matched betting is perfectly legal. But the sportsbooks do not want you consistently winning. They can ban you at any time and the new sportsbook I signed up for banned me before I could even make a single bet. If you’ve followed my previous posts, you may notice that my username has changed. I’m now trying t...

Matched Betting Experiment - Day 1

*** TLDR – I’ve decided to experiment with matched betting and I’m going to share my experience on this blog. I originally started sharing my journey on Reddit, but have added it here as well for visibility.  I’ve been watching this sub and looking for a side hustle for quite a while. My main issue is that I already work over 40 hours a week. So I don’t have a lot of extra time. I will be honest. I may be a bit too lazy or lack the motivation to pursue some of the more lucrative side hustles I’ve seen posted. On Sunday, I came across an ad right here on Reddit regarding matched betting. I’ve heard of this but never thought much of it. But for some reason, they caught my attention and I started to research how it works. Basically what you do is always place 2 opposing bets for the same game which cancel each other out. This guarantees a minor loss of normally less than a dollar. The purpose of these bets is to qualify for free money offered by the betting company referred ...

Matched Betting Experiment - Day 4

Another day, another lesson (or two) learned. Current profit $231.49. So as I stated yesterday, I have $150 in bonus bets to use last night. So I jump on ProfitDuel to find a match. I find a great bet which is going to turn my promo funds into around $111. Now this return is based on the odds which were current when the deal was found. I check the first sportsbook and the odds have changed slightly. This leads me to check the 2nd sportsbook and I see that the odds there have changed drastically. I put the new odds in the calculator and realize it's going to drastically reduce my profit. Lesson learned. Always double check the odds before placing the bet. So I decided to find another bet. After viewing the other options the bets are either for later this week or require a large counter bet for which I don't currently have the bank roll to cover. As you know, I'm looking for action every night. So I decided to look for another play for the night. I received an offer for a dep...
