I have no connection to any of the following. I just love when people find a griff in the system and loopholes which can be exploited.

Well - here is one. Most bookmakers will offer a free bet when you sign up with them. And you can sign up with as many as you want.

So - the idea is this. You sign up with two different bookmakers. With the first one you use the free bet to be on Team A to win. And with the second you bet on Team A to lose.

Simples.

Collect your winnings. Close your accounts. And go do off and do the same thing again. In fact there are now websites (mentioned in the articles below) which automate the process and arrange all the details for you. You just fill in your details - and then receive free money. With zero risk.

Anyway - more than the free money. I appreciate the ingenuity of it all.

Here are some newspaper articles about this concept:

Good luck!

No such thing as a free lunch.

try, but I think somewhere hidden in the small font text, it is said that you cannot collect those money until you played them 50 times or so... and by that time you will lose much more than that small bonus

Come on, man, don't be so cynical. Bookies have a bad rap as being money-obsessed, con artists. Totally unfounded. They're actually all sweet, child-like creatures who love to share. That's just the tough facade they put out there because they're too scared that people won't appreciate their true, gooey center.
