Betting Warriors - Opinion and Advice

I have a £40 bet at 5 - 1 on Barnsley to be promoted which I placed before we made it into the playoffs.

It slidy things on the betting slip which I can cash out some or all of my bet. I have some options

Option1.
I can cash out now for £96

Option 2.
Or I cant wait to be promoted and risk it all...

Option 3.
Or I could cashout £40 (my original stake) - Maybe a little more - which would leave me with £20 riding on us actually being promoted - netting another £100.


The original £40 is the winnings of a result of a free bet.

My natural inclination is to take option 3. but wait until after the wallsall match because I think the return will improve slightly - but what would the experienced gambler do?

 

Cash out enough to pay for your Wembley ticket and travel and leave the rest on.

 

Option 2. No surrender.

 

Option 3 100% mate. As long as the winnings are actually yours and not another free bet

 

Bloody hell good going!

 

Wow!

What's the cash out currently on that?

I'd find it difficult not to take some money out - or at least lay off against Millwall.

 

Doesn't seem to be a cashout option available. I might lay a bit off if we get to the final, but I'm tempted to just gamble.

 

Let it ride!!

 

I've got £15 on Accrington, Barnsley and Brighton. Stand to win nearly £600, they're offering £6.41 to cash out, think I'd better take it!

 

Another way of looking at it is to ask yourself whether you'd put a £96 bet on today to win £200, because that's essentially what you're doing if you let it ride.

 

Not exactly, because she's not actually forking out £96. I definitely wouldn't wager £700 to win £1,500 because I wouldn't want to end up on -£700. But given the worst outcome is -£15 I'm happy to not cash out.

 

I'd say lay off a bit before the final (should we get there!) on that one. The dream would be if Barnsley go ahead- say if Millwall become 5/6 -1 to win promotion then you can put a couple of hundred on them in-play and come out with well over a grand guaranteed.

Well played, that's a super bet.

 

Not exactly, but essentially. By offering the cashout, they're saying that you can have this money immediately as yours - if you have the opportunity to get that £96 in your bank account, by turning the offer down you're basically forking it out.

 

I put a fiver on promotion on the same day as you and only got 40/1! How the bloody hell did you get 100/1?

 

Cash out would be £606

 

Britain didn't become great by wimping out, Sh*t or Bust, live on the edge man. Positive Vibes Man

P.S. This advise is given by a man who bets on the Super Reds to win 6-1 every match

 

I've £25 on a 4 timer of Hull, Us, Plymouth & Grimsby prior to the playoffs starting, Grimsby already won, Plymouth already booked place at Wembley and us and Hull looking certs to follow bet pays £2247, currently being offered £247 to cash out.

 

im currently on

Barnsley
Wednesday
Liverpool
Athletico

pays just over 60/1 with a tenna on

 

On SkyBet? The odds probably shortened after my bet!

 

I put a tenner on us to be promoted at 33/1, think it was around Christmas, cash out is currently £136 but expect that to go up to around the £180 mark after Thursday if there is no disasters.

I had a tenner on us to win the JPT at 12/1 on the morning of the Wigan away quarter final, I just let that run and took my £130 winnings so might do the same with this one and hang on for the £340!
