Top Tips When you go to the Bookmakers
If you sometimes prefer a trip to the bookmakers, rather than taking a punt online, here are some top tips.
Know what you’re looking for
Anyone who has ever been to a high street bookmakers will know that there are plenty of tempting offers to take advantage of. So, while you are about to fill out a betting slip on the weekend’s football fixtures, the horse race on the in-shop screen might just catch your eye. Or, you overhear a conversation on a hot tip for the evening’s greyhound meeting. There are plenty of excellent odds out there, so the trick is knowing exactly what you’re looking for before you go in.
Look for the bargains
Once you’ve narrowed down the kind of bet that you’re looking to make, it is worth investigating whether the bookmaker of your choice is offering any special markets. Usually, you will find a large number of accumulator options, which carry potentially lucrative rewards. So, for example, although you may be thinking of placing a wager on a single football match, if you bet the same amount of money on a series of matches, the possible win is massive.
