WHAT IS MATCHED BETTING? Many bookmakers offer free bets, you know the sort of thing "Bet £25, receive a free £25 bet" as a signup bonus when opening an account, or maybe to encourage people to have a bet their site during a certain sporting event i.e. World Cup, Champions League, Grand National etc… Matched betting is a technique involving backing and laying an event in order to win regardless of the outcome using the free bonuses that are on offer as the stake money, thereby making risk free profit.  Sign up to our Risk Free Instant alert newsletter at http://www.laytheodds.com/categories/Matched-Betting/
