Lunchtime Profit Alert FAQs
Can I Back The LPA Selections In Multiple Bets?
Of course! Generally there will be three selections in each alert and if you want to back them in a multiple bet you are free to do so. Try one of these ‘multiples’
1 - A treble.
This is quite simple - ALL three selections must win for you to collect on your bet.
If you are placing your bet by telephone - just ask for ‘a treble’ and name your selections.
2 - 3 doubles and a treble
This bet gives you more ‘coverage’ and you will pick up money if only 2 of the selections win. Here’s how it works -let’s call our selections A, B and C
You have a double A and B
You have a double A and C
You have a double B and C
You also have a treble on A, B and C.
This is 4 bets in one - and if all 3 selections win it will pay off spectacularly well - even if only 2 win you will land a double.
If you were betting in one-pound units your outlay would be four pounds. If you were betting in five-pound units your outlay would be twenty pounds. Whatever your unit stake is - multiply it by four to work out your total outlay.
If you are placing the bet by telephone say,
"I would like three one-pound doubles and a one-pound treble"
And then name your selections.
I Can’t Find The Bet On The Bookmaker’s Site
Because bookmakers Internet sites are all a little different - it can sometimes be a little time consuming to find your bet - of course once you’ve had a bet or two with each firm, finding your way around their site will be easy.
But if you are pushed for time and are finding it difficult to find the bet on the site-.DON’T MISS THE BET-.just telephone the bet to the bookmaker.
All the major firms have big telephone betting operations - they are usually free to call and the operators are well trained are very helpful. Just tell the operator what bet you want to make - they will enter it on your account and repeat it back to you - and that’s it - your bet is placed.
You can be confident that you will always be paid out on your winners - all calls are recorded and if you ever disagree with the amount you have been paid, the recordings will be played back and any errors will be corrected.
That’s a very rare occurrence though - millions of people use telephone betting every week and the system is easy to use and efficient.
When I Went To Betfair To Place My Bet - The Price Had Changed
Betfair prices are always liable to go up and down - these odds are dependent on what fellow Betfair users want to offer. But if you ever go to place a bet and are disappointed with the price - don’t despair - the price is very likely to go up again in a short while. Just leave placing your bet for an hour or so, or until the next day, and the likelihood is that you will get the price that you want.
It’s Friday Afternoon & I Still Haven’t Received My First Alert, Why?
If you have only signed up since Wednesday morning then it’s likely that your subscription hasn’t been added to our email database in time for that weeks alert. Don’t panic, you will receive your first alert a week later. Please contact Richie at lpa@agorapub.co.uk if you are still experiencing problems then.
How Can You Get 0.5 Of A Goal?
Generally the bookmaker will ask us to bet whether there will be ‘Under’ or ‘Over’ 2.5 goals. I know that there is no such thing as ‘half a goal,’ but this is just a bookies device to ensure that everyone either wins or loses - with no possibility of a draw. Basically - the question is - will there be 0, 1 or 2 goals in the match - or will there be more?
Can I Just Use Betfair Or Do I Need To Open Other Accounts Up?
It's best to have quite a few accounts - then you can take advantage if one particular bookmaker is being over generous. But to start with open up with Betfair and 3 or 4 other leading bookmakers. Please head to www.agorafreebets.com to sign up with a selection of them.
