Bet Builder – How To Complete Matched Betting

What’s “Bet Builder” or “Same Game Multiples”?

 

Create Your Own Bet

 

bet builder 888bet

 

Bet Builder is a personalization of the individual multiple bets namely a “Create Your Own Bet” like below 888 Sports;

DON’T JUST BET – CREATE YOUR BET
Don’t be told what to bet on. It’s time you call the shots.
With Bet Builder, you can combine markets within the same game, both pre-match and live, to create your own unique match multiples.
For example, the Manchester derby might be coming up and you fancy City to win, Aguero to score 2+ goals and over 10.5 corners. Using the Bet Builder section, in the match, you’ll be able to add these selections together to get a price.
Make your own winning combo today and prove you know your stuff.

In other words, bet builder is a Sama Game Multiple Betsthat allows players to place combination bets on the same event, which traditionally would not be possible with a regular combination bet. 

Originally, Sky Bet started “RequestABet” by asking punters to submit their choices via social media and major bookmakers followed suit like;

  • Betway “#BetYourWay”
  • BetVictor “#PriceItUp”
  • William Hill (#YourOdds)
  • BetFred “#PickYourPunt”
  • PaddyPower (#WhatOdds)

This has been evolved into Bet Builder where punters can create their choices with real-time price in the site such as; 

  • Coral “Build Your Bet”
  • Bet365 “Soccer Bet Builder”
  •  
  • Bet Builder or Same Game Multi Related Offer Examples

     

    Given the same logic as Acca (the bookmaker’s margin a.k.a. overround is compounded as you add selection every time), bet builder is very profitable for bookmakers, thus they constantly promote this feature by using free bets. Some of the examples are; 

    Unibet “Bet & Get”

    We’re giving you a £5 free bet to use in play when you place a £10 pre-match Bet-Builder (minimum 2 selections) on selected matches.

    How Can We Make Matched Betting for Bet Builder?  

     

    So, you may wonder how you can rake risk-free profits from these offers by using the matched betting method

     

    Don’t Get Confused with Acca 

     

    Make sure you understand the difference between usual multiple bets (or Acca) and Bet Builder. Bet Builder is the multiple bets in the SAME event (therefore it’s a.k.a. Same Game Multi). 

    Usually, for Acca Insurances, you can lay by using;

    However, when it comes to Bet Builder, although not impossible depending on the market, usually you may not be able to lay any such markets since most of them are quite unique based on the individual punter’s request.

    So, unless you are lucky enough to find the proper lay market (I would say even you can find it, the liquidity of such a minor lay market could be extremely limited or very poor odds), many matched bettors consider it impossible to lay.

     

     

    Bet Builder Lay Solution – Creative Selection

     

    Well, we all human beings are creative creatures and always come up with some solutions. The solutions come from how you select the bets. 

    If you consider the combination among “back a team to win”, “the number of cards in the game”, “the number of corners” & “First goal scorer” etc. you wouldn’t be able to lay these.

    You can create many combinations of Win (or Lose or Draw) with BTTS (Both Team To Score) & Correct score, which can be layed by the single Correct score;

    Bet Maker – 3 Minimum Selection Case

     

    T&C of each offer will vary though, the most popular requirement is “Place at least 3 selections” such as  Netbet Bet Maker Offer;

    netbet bet maker

    Bets to be placed via mobile only. No Opt-In required customers need to place a Pre-match £5 Bet Maker on one of the selected games above. The minimum total combined odds for the bet maker is 3/1. The minimum number of Pre-Match selections for the bet maker is 3.

    So, how to lay off this offer? Find the various examples of at least 3 selections; 

    Assuming there is an offer for Real Madrid vs PSG game.

    • (1) Back === “Real Madrid to win” & “Yes to BTTS (Both team to score)” & “Under 3.5 goals” then  Lay === “Correct score 1 (PSG) – 2 (Real Madrid)”
    • (2) Back === “Real Madrid to win” & “No to BTTS” & “Under 1.5 goals” then Lay === “Correct score 0 (PSG) – 1 (Real Madrid)”
    • (3) Back === “PSG to win” & Yes to BTTS” & “Over 2.5 goals” then Lay === “PSG / Yes to BTTS” (make a single lay in “Match Winner and BTTS market”)
    • (4) Back === “Draw” & “Yes to BTTS” & “Under 2.5 goals” then Lay === “Correct score 1 – 1”
    • (5) Back === “PSG to win” & “No to BTTS” & “Correct score 0 (Real Madrid) – 2 (PSG)” then Lay === “Correct score 0 (Real Madrid) – 2 (PSG)”

     

    Bet Builder – 2 Minimum Selection Case

     

    If the required minimum selection is only 2 like below 32 Red Bet Builder offer;

    bet32 bet builder free bet offer

    Up to £30 in Free Bets
    Enjoy up to a £10 Free Bet to use on each day of this week’s Champions League/Europa League fixtures when you opt in below and bet at 32Red Sport…
    Tuesday’s Free Bet: Place a £1+ pre-match Bet Builder (min.2 selections, min.odds 3/1) on any of Tuesday’s Champions League matches, and we’ll match your stake with a Free Bet up to a maximum of £10 to use as an in-play bet on any of Tuesday’s matches.
    Wednesday’s Free Bet: Place a £1+ pre-match Bet Builder (min.2 selections, min.odds 3/1) on any of Wednesday’s Champions League matches, and we’ll match your stake with a Free Bet up to a maximum of £10 to use as an in-play bet on any of Wednesday’s matches.
    Thursday’s Free Bet: Place a £1+ pre-match Bet Builder (min.2 selections, min.odds 3/1) on any of Thursday’s Europa League matches, and we’ll match your stake with a Free Bet up to a maximum of £10 to use as an in-play bet on any of Thursday’s matches.
    Your Free Bet(s) will be available to use as soon as any Champions League/Europa League matches each day go in-play.

    , it’s much easier.

    Find many examples of 2 selections as follows;

    Assuming you use RB Leipzig vs Liverpool game.

    • (1) Back === “RB Leipzig Over 0.5 goals” & “Liverpool Over 0.5 goals” then Lay === “Yes to BTTS”
    • (2) Back === “RB Leipzig Win” & “Yes to BTTS” then Lay === “RB Leipzig / Yes to BTTS” (single lay in “Match Winner and BTTS market”)
    • (3) Back === “RB Leipzig Win & No to BTTS” then Lay === “RB Leipzig / No to BTTS” (single lay in “Match Winner and BTTS market”)

    So, as you’re aware that any Winner & BTTS combination can be layed

    • (4) Back === “RB Leipzig Win” & “Correct Score 2 – 1” then Lay === “Correct score 2 – 1”

     

    Betfair Sports Same Game Multi – Specific Process

     

    Betfair (you may want to use Betfair Alternatives) Sports offer “Same game Multi:

    Place a min £10 Same Game Multi bet on the Premier League matches taking place between 6th and 7th of February. After the qualifying bet has settled, you’ll get a £10 free bet.

    Betfair same game multi free bet

    Let’s see how we construct matched betting with this Betfair same-game multi-offer. 

    This offer doesn’t specify minimum legs & minimum odds, but just a Premier League match, so it should be easy by combining only 2 selections.

    Betfair Sportsbook – Select 

    Go to Betfair Sportsbook (not Exchange) Same Game Multi section. Since the offer requires a Premier League match, we select Manchester Utd vs Everton.

    You may explore several combinations of the examples we indicated above to compare the Betfair sports back odds and other Exchanges (don’t lay off at Betfair Exchange, your sportsbook account will be immediately gubbed) such as Smarkets or Matchbook

    We finally chose the Manchester Utd “Over 0.5” and Everton “Over 0.5” of which the back odds is 1.63 as below; 

    Betfair same game multi bet slip

    Betfair same game multi over score market

    Usually, over 0.5 odds are short, and the shorter the odds, the gap between back & lay odds tends to be narrower. 

    Smarkets Lay Odds

    The lay market corresponding to the above combination is BTTS (Both Teams To Score) “Yes” because over 0.5 score means at least 1 score. The lay odds is 1.81;

    Betfair same game multi smarkets lay odds

    Matched Betting Calculator

    So, use Free Matched Betting calculator by filling £10 back stake and both back & lay odds, then you get the required Lay stake and qualifying loss, in this case, £0.99 as below;

    Betfair same game multi matched betting calculation

    So, although you will lose £0.99 you will receive a £10 free bet which you repeat the same process (no need to do the same game multi, but just a single bet thus much simpler). Then, this time free bet value (minus a little loss) will become your final net profit.

    T&C T&C and T&C 

    Ensure your bet is in line with each offer’s requirement.

    Shop Around Lay Odds

    In comparison with single-bet matched betting, the gap between the same game combination multi-bet back odds & lay odds tends to be bigger, therefore the qualifying loss could be big.

    So, shop around the lay odds (that’s why you need to have not only 1 betting exchange but also multiple bet exchanges) to minimize the qualifying loss.

    Betting Exchange

    Make sure you are aware of all 4 following established betting exchanges

    Betfair (see Betfair Alternatives)Betfair Exchange Logo
    BetDaq (Warning)Betdaq Exchange Logo

    If there are any betting exchange(s) you don’t have an account, and in case you are not familiar with the betting exchanges, the below 2 documents will be of good help;

    For those who can’t access the 4 key betting exchanges, don’t worry, you can use bet brokers, but you need to take a cautious approach given their small business operation. The following 2 documents will help you select the right one(s);

    Bookmaker Gubbing (account restriction)

    As briefly said in the process of Betfair Sportsbook offer, soft bookmakers will gub (restrict) your account If you take too much value from them. So, we have prepared the following 2 guides – One is Before Restriction, The Other One is After Restriction;

     

     

    Bet Builder A Few Basic Tips 

     

    Difference Between Bet Builder and Request A Bet

    Although I briefly explained at the beginning, let me repeat how a bet builder is different from requesting a bet.

    Bet builders are personalized multiple bets instantly applicable, which can create near-infinite betting opportunities by knowing a real-time price.

    On the other hand, for Request A Bets, you first need to ask for your choices through social media like Twitter and wait for the bookmaker’s approval and you are not guaranteed to get a price-up.

    Therefore, Bet Builders obviously give you more convenience. 

    Cashing Out On Bet Builders

    When you want to cash out your build-a-bet, it is essential that each of your picks still has a chance of winning.

    For example, if part of your bet is No to BTTS (Both Teams To Score), and one team already scores, then the bet cannot be cashed out. 

    Remember, once you cash out, the offer related to the bet builder will no longer be applicable. 

     

    Lastly, you may want to use Football Livescore Feed to track the results of your game or make a betting plan, just FYI.

    Hope this guide will help you make sports betting reliable sports trading instead of mere gambling.

      Arent betting companies aware of this “trick”? Wont they contact me after the game and tell me that, playing a (3-bet) bet builder with options that are “implicit” do not count as 3-bet builders? I’m pretty confident they won’t pay that anymore, they have a whole team behind all this bonus hunting and they will definitely figure it out…
