Anyone had chance to watch this yet with our resident celebrity fan, Lloyd Griffith.

Excellent watch as he tries to double his money in 1 week. Won't give too much away but some of it is filmed locally.

Everytime you lose just double the stake on your next bet. When you eventually do win you will recoup what you have lost so far and also make a healthy profit.

Whilst I don't think he is the funniest, he is local, and brings a lot of attention to the local area, which I like

Don't use this strategy for odds-on bets, because you will be down in the long run.

Matched betting is really good, but your accounts get restricted before long when the bookies notice you only bet using the offers or enhanced odds.

In casinos, the house wins in the long run. Same for online bookies. They always have an edge. Nothing long-term will work (unless you really put the hours in and, obviously, enjoy a bit of luck).

But I haven't watched the programme yet...

I know, this one was posted in jest. At least you'll need deep pockets to make this work when the inevitable losing steaks come.

A fun one to try, for a small outlay is to take a tenner and find a bet that you like that's around 1/2 odds on. Then you have £15 returns. Easy right? Now do the same with your £15, find a 1/2 odds on bet and so on. Reinvest your returns each time on a 1/2 odds on. You need to do this 18 times to get £15k, that's the target. I have tried it a few times and never got so far as the end but it's quite fun, and can string a tenner out for a few weeks.
