Risk free matched betting using bookie offers

Today's question. If I want to lay a bet on Betfair but on the odds in the pink box that I am looking at there is only £48, what should I consider?
Cheers.
There's not enough liquidity at that price, so the balance will go unmatched. Either to be matched when someone wants to back at that price, or not, in which case you'd need to re-match the balance at the next available odds.Cheers.
You're also running a risk that by the time you sort your bet out, that £48 has gone.
So, at this stage in your MBing, I'd either wait for more liquidity or choose an alternative match with plenty of liquidity.
Do it 
A lot are scared of non runners etc, but this only affects your horse if it wins, and even then what the bookie and BF do with non runners generally equalise anyway.
Just don't go in within half an hour (or an hour @ Chelts) of the start of race, for now.
No.1 Rule with horses: DO NOT get muddled up and chose the TO BE PLACED market at Betfair, thinking you've stumbled across a massive arb!!

If it happens again, leave it a few mins, will usually get matched pretty quickly.
As an exercise, Refresh the prices box (not the whole page) every second or two and see how much money is moving about, and how fast!
Ultimatcher3 is indeed highly recommended for all things matched betting.

No problem
I'd avoid that 365 football inplay offer Croyde, assuming you haven't done their fantastic sub yet.
You'd miss out on £200!
THE best book out there for us lot, until you get limited that is.
That £200 matching deposit deal worries me as you can't withdraw until you you played your own cash and the deposit 3 times.I'd avoid that 365 football inplay offer Croyde, assuming you haven't done their fantastic sub yet.

Do you keep placing and matching as at little loss as possible?
Deposit 200, get 200 bonus (sr). All your bets should be low odds, I never went over evens. Bet £200 (your money) then bet £200 bonus.
If you don't bust out your bonus bet (ie if it wins @ 365), you'll need to bet a further £800 before withdrawing.
Peeps underlay, to give a profit on a bookie win to make up for the fact that having to complete the wr will cost a couple percent.
It's all in the 365 mse threads
It is DEFINITELY worth waiting and doing this one when you and your float are ready Another Vic20, nice
Don't forget the freespins, someone on mse apparently won 800-odd from these. I got up to £82 of my £300 wr before my luck ran out
I've got a load of money at WH, so will try my luck again on the RP mobile offer (which links to your WH account), £50 refund if 2nd, every race. I had a 3rd and two 1sts today. It's arb & hope but good if you're a bit bored

I would expect to get at least £175 from the sub as Dan says - and that's if you busted out without any wr. £200+ using underlaying on the wr.
You missed out big time because you didn't understand the offer. You won't do that again
You'll still be eligible for the mobile £50 bonus though, so do this sometime
