There is a monster arb in tonight FA Cup matches. Reading v Spurs. Available at 6/5 with The Tote and 11/10 at Ladbrokes. I’ve got £1400 on and laid it off at 1.97-1.98. If Spurs win my Betmate balance will be wiped out.

I played the $50 plo8 games for a couple of hours today. Principally to get the 100 raked hands needed to qualify for the SJ freerolls (10 raked hands are needed for the Tues and Thurs ones, 100 raked hands for Sunday). You get credit for a raked hand if the rake hits 25c and you are dealt cards in that hand. No nonsense about having to actually contribute to the pot, so its pretty easy to rack them up.
Finished over 2 buy-ins up. I hit some cracking flops and got customers each time. Quartered one guy when I made a str flush A-5 clubs and made another $25 when my AJTT flopped QTT to make quads. I checked the flop and the turn only to find a guy betting at me on the river. He had QQxx so must have been pretty cheesed off to get stacked in that position.
So $100 up and qualification for the next three SJ freerolls.

Intercasino convert your comp points into dollars at the rate of 100/$ once you hit 2,000 points. I hit this during Dec so got an extra $20 added to my account. I don’t think I will be playing much here anymore. The 50x WR is too big for me.

A couple of years ago Intercasino was one of the best monthly casino bonuses around. Gradually, the WR went up and up and I stopped doing them for a long time (although I occasionally hit Intercasino£ for a few quid). But they offered me a bonus $20:
Hi Xxxxx,
I haven’t seen you at InterCasino since my last e-mail, so I wanted to see whether $20 in your account would tempt you back?Simply wager 1 cent or more on any InterCasino game, including Jewel Quest and our other amazing new games, and I will credit your account with $20! Offer valid for the next 7 days.
So, I reloaded with $200 to get this and do the Blackjack bonus for Dec at the same time. To be frank, so far, it has not gone well. I am halfway through the $5,000 betting needed to clear the bonus and my balance stands at $198. So, both bonuses have disappeared and I still have a long way to go before it is finished!
The game itself is reasonably quick if you select a table on your own. I play the minimum $2 per hand but just hit a bad run..

Bet365 have given me another £5 free bet. They also have the Ch4 4/1+offer on four races tomorrow from Cheltenham. I have a £50 free bet carried forward from the last race on Sat so should see at least £40 profit from this. The Feature Races this week have been pants. I have only had got 2 bets on with no winners.

There are decent arbs all over the place today. Roma 2.0 at Ladbrokes 1.85-1.88 on the machine. Got £750 on for a lock of about £40. No limits on Schalke 04, so bet £600 at 4/9, matching out at 1.38 for a profit of £22. Real Madrid were 2/5 with Ladbrokes. Played another 20% joker on a £500 bet and offset £552.50 at 1.37. This produces £35 if Madrid lose and £135 if Ladbrokes add the bonus to the total return as they have done previously and Madrid win. C’mon Madrid.
Found a nice little dutching opportunity on the Chelsea handicaps to make a start on my Canbet reload. Only £4 but every little helps.
So, not bad for a midweek night up £100 or maybe £200 if Madrid can keep their form. I just can’t figure out why most people prefer to be mug punters.

Also did PP’s £25 blackjack bonus today. This had a WR of £825 so should of produced a profit of over £20.
PP was dealing himself an ace all the time. When he didn’t he caught 3 and 4 cards to hit 21.
Finished down £18 so up +£7 overall after the bonus was added.
