Just started today that the withdrawl is now pretty much instant
 
On another note, did over 10 corners in the Spurs game last night with my £25 free bet
there were 9 corners in the first half,
10 by the 65th minute onwards
Finished on 10 Angry
 
When 365 were offering £25 or £50 (not sure which it was) free in play bet in last season's champions league, my brother backed for there to be no penalty inside the first minute at 1/1000 LOL (just to qualify for the free in play bet) Good old Sissoko Clap

They only give me a fiver for the free inplay bets now. Cry

Remember about 2 or 3 years ago, there was a risk free €50 bet. If you put the right bet on, you'll be guaranteed a profit. €50 on BTTS first half, then as soon as the game starts €50 BTTS no for first half. Think you'd end up about €150 with yes or €5 up with no.

there was a match in Argentina tonight, Huracan against San Lorenzo
In the 90th minute (score was 2-0 to Huracan)I noticed the odds on bet365 on huracan scoring the next goal was 6/4 and San Lorenzo getting it was 7/4
There were 5 mins of added time 
The odds on no third goal was 2/1

Hard to believe, couldn’t work out what the catch was 
Could have been a mistake by them 

Anyway, finished 2-0 and I was left disappointed that I didn’t put more on it!

That sounds like a price error to me. If it's a decent amount of money I'd be withdrawing it right now.

Just got a message on my account this morning to say it was an error and the price should have been 1/20 and not 2/1
 
they've taken the money back off me

Probably not because a 2/1 loser and a 1/20 loser are the exact same thing.

Yes, but you would be more likely to back it at 2/1. I don't believe he would have placed a bet at all had it been 1/20.

Bookmaker in having rules that benefit the bookmaker shocker! 

That's the nature of the beast, if people think the rules are bollocks then they should stay away from gambling altogether.

To be fair too, most people who see a blatant price error like this know that the market is massively over priced and are trying to pull a fast one. There is nothing wrong with that but in my view you can't cry foul if it then goes against you when it will be inevitably corrected, as provided for in the rules. 

It's interesting though because with these fast withdrawals now, bookies are potentially going to take a hit when customers win on these errors and manage to withdraw the funds straight away.

If you are having bets on the number of corners in a game, I would advise deleting your online accounts

Yeah but if they do manage to withdraw their funds straight away, their account balance will then be a negative number whenever the bookmaker corrects the mistake and they go to use their account again. So effectively they will have to withdraw their money and then never use their account again.
 
Has happened me before, not for big amounts or anything.
I've done a bet on both teams to score, or over a certain number of goals in a match, get a notification that a goal has gone in, go and hit cash out (the bet is up but it just hasn't updated onto my balance yet) then minutes later after a VAR review the goal is disallowed so they take the money back off you, or if you've already withdrawn it your balance is now a minus number

Yes it will be absolutely a minus balance but if it's a proper amount of money so what, there is loads of bookies out there. If I earned a lot of money off a blatant price error it wouldn't bother me that I couldn't use that account again unless I paid the money back.

Then don't watch the match, your man who lost a couple of million and wrote the book about it said the first time he should've known he had a gambling problem was when he was having a bet 'to have an interest in the match'.

Oh well if the gambling addict says so.........

I have the odd football bet , I backed corners in the CL final this year between Liverpool and spurs , as a neutral watching on it made it more interesting , the match was also sh*te , but would you turn off a European cup final cause i wouldn't?

I love a corners bet. BTTS is another one I tend to go for.
