Beat the bookie- Calzaghe V Hopkins!

Post by whicker »

Ok, this is how to do it-

Calzaghe is 8/15 with Will Hill, Hopkins is 5/2 with Bet365. The draw you can get for 22/1 at a few places.


If you were really clever, you could place bets to guarantee a profit.

EG- Bet £90.10 on Hopkins, £206.10 on Joe and £13.50 on a draw.

WITH ALL OUTCOMES you would make a profit in the region of £5.50

OK, hardly "bank breaking" but still.... :D

This happens everyday in betting, especially if you use betfair.


I'd wait till odds are up on betfair for this one, too.

ah the old arbitrage "betting" a bit risky at the same time though mate as the odds can quickly change while moving between bookies and before you know it your cutting a loss.
