so are you one of them, 500 people will win anything between £5-£500, nothing in my account which came as no surprise, just intrigued if we have any big winners between us?

    i think if ya check terms and conditions, just like the football free £10 bet, you only get the winnings from the bet , not the stake as well. Check it just to be sure.

    How do you know that, if I may ask? It's some leap of imagination to suggest "no winners....lol" just because a very small sample (of those in the Poker Community) have not had a win!

    What are you suggesting, exactly?

    Most free bets they don't include the stake in your return, so that would probably be the worlds worst way to make £1 ever.


    With any freebet I stick it on no less than 10-1 odds.

    Correct. Usually, it's a "free bet" not a "free stake". There is quite a difference!

    Id still put it on a banker bet though lke 1/2 - and make sure you get the profit. Then use like 50% of that profit to have a proper "free bet" and lock up some free money!

    that wud return £250 - might even take it straight to NL200 and take a shot with the big boys ;) lol

    God I really am tight rnt I!

    use text bet service BETnow, your first bet of £3 is free and you get to re-use the £3stake.

    so if you keep getting it right you can make some good profit over time.


    That will suit you down to the ground.


    89000 is the number. (I reccomend Liverpool for your first banker)

    OK Rover, I will pass that on. With currency fluctuation, this is a swings & roundabouts thing really, but yes, of course, I'll pass on your comment. But if it's a Sky Bet - as opposed to a Sky Poker - promotion, I doubt if they even know who I am, so my words might not count for much. The Promotion, I assume, is a Sky BET promotion, not a Sky Poker promotion.

    So, if I understand you completely - were you a "lucky winner"?

    To be fair webby, this is not a skypoker promotion, but a sky bet promotion, and there must be thousands of betting punters who dont play poker, so id say the chances of getting a prize could be very remote
