    I don't have money to bet so I made my website. Then I can still have fun and not lose money.

    I use betfair daily and most of the money I earn comes from taking advantage of bookmakers sign up bonus's by placing bets at bookmakers and laying off at betfair. Serious cash to be made.
    i also do arb betting but the profits on this are rather low , roughly 5% , but still 5% profit for a couple minutes work is graet.
    I bet mostly bet on football as the rules on footy are much the same at all the bookies.

    what a bummer mate, bet you were well gutted. Thats the problem with tambling though you NEVER know whats going to happen and there were a good few surprises in the world cup last year.
    I bet daily but I never gamble, everything is down to the odds, when i bet on a game/market I cover all the outcomes by betting at bookies and laying at betfair, so regardless of the result of the game I come out with the same money.
    Out of a free bet I will take roughly 70% of its value guaranteed, no risk.

    I don't get that fortunately, i'm not even really that into sports even. To be honest it bores me constantly searching for close odds.
