One of the benefits of starting out online betting these days is that there is free money to be had to get you started.

There are loads of bookies that will give you free money via various bonuses to encourage you to open an account.

Now of course the reason they give these bonuses is because they expect you to lose the money back to them!!

But if you take your betting serious and are only betting when the value is on your favour then it really is free money and can make a big difference to your betting, because it means you have a bigger bank to work with.

Good offers come from Paddy Power who match your first free bet up to £50 – Paddy Power.

Skybet do a £30 matched bet and Bet Victor do one at £25.

But these matched bets are just one hit wonders and the best thing to do with those is to lay them off at Betfair.
