Beat Sky Bet
We hate unethical bookies that want to have their cake and eat it by targeting losing customers for as much as they can, whilst dramatically reducing the business they take from those with a modicum of ability.
It’s the ultimate ‘heads I win, tails you lose’ business, and Sky Bet is a typical such bookmaker.
The below interview to ex Skybet CEO Richard Flint gives you some good insight on the bookmaker’s attitude towards the smart punters, account restrictions which include Sports Arbitrage, Oddschecker & Ungubbing etc. (The video is 11+ minutes long though you may start from 5 minutes for the Account restriction topics);
It’s rare to have such a terrible Trustpilot score among established bookmakers as below;
We would like our readers to beat Sky Bet with our Advantage Play, which is only the method to win the unfair gambling companies for long-term, see the details at the bottom.
Sky Bet Juicy Offers List
So, don’t waste your time grumbling, instead, exploit Sky Bet offers to get risk-free profits as much & long as possible before Sky Bet restrict your account.
Sky Bet Offers 1 – New Customer Free Bets No Deposit Needed
When it comes to new customer sign-up offer, it’s one of the easiest offers to lock-in profit, which is “Bet £5 Get £20 Free Bet”.
Our underlying method is matched betting. I will construct it using this Sky Bet new customer offer to show you how it works, which would be a brief summary for you to understand the overall concept.
For specific step-by-step instruction, take a look at Matched Betting Specific Process Between Sky Bet & SMarkets later in this section.
For those who are not familiar with the matched betting, suggest taking a look at Matched Betting For Dummies where you will find every basic of the matched betting.
What we do are;
- 2 transactions of Back (bet on win) £5 on Team or Player A at odds of 2.0 < at Sky Bet & Lay (bet on NOT win) appropriate £ (stake can be calculated by free software) on the same Team or Player A at Betting Exchange like Betfair or SMarkets so that you cover all outcomes.
- Regardless of the outcome, your losing & winning will cancel out each other. In real practice, usually, 2 bets are not perfectly offset due to the odds difference & exchange commission. Therefore you make a small loss called Qualifying Loss.
- But now, you get £20 Free Bets. You repeat the exact same process but using the free bet for the back bet at Sky Bet. Then, this time free bet value (minus qualifying loss) will become your net profit.
- You may be able to extract around £15 – 18 pure profit from this offer Without Any Single Risk.
- Success factor is how to minimize the qualifying loss by selecting the player whose odds gap (between Sky Bet & Betting Exchange) is the narrowest. You can use Free Odds Matcher to locate such opportunities. For the step by step process, take a look at Risk-Free Betting Starting Guide (3) – How To Extract Profit from Free Bet. You will see William Hill sign-up bonus case as an example in this instruction.

- Your £5 free bet will expire at 23:59:59 on the following Sunday after being credited.
- Subject to the above you will remain in the promotion and will receive a £5 free bet every week during the promotional period so long as you continue to qualify before 23:59 on each Sunday.
It’s a no-brainer, just implement standard matched betting. You can follow Matched Bet Starting Guide (2).
Usually, when we place qualifying bet we may incur around 2-5% loss if we lose 5% of £25 qualifying bet will lose around £1 and the cash value of the Free Bet is around 80% means £5 x 80% = £4, then your final profit will become £3.
