[@me4374]

Thank you, excellent video When placing ur back bets do they all need to be at bookmakers paying out on the same number of extra places? Keep up the great work

[@ProfitPineapple]

When doing this they will all need to cover the same amount of places, if certian bookies cover more places than all the others this is a bonus but each of the bookies need to pay out on at least the same number (e.g. 1 bookie cant pay out 3 places and the rest pay out on 4).

[@michaeleast1949]

excellent video. i am looking for an excel spreadsheet for dutching just the place market. is this available on Odds Monkey? also how do you assess which race to try and dutch before inputting all the price info?

[@ProfitPineapple]

Hi Michael, OddsMonkey provides some pretty good E/W sheets. In terms of race selection you would generally be looking for most bookies to pay out 1/4 odds on the place, however, there are some exceptions to that rule at big meetings. Another good way of determining whether a race will be profitable is by refreshing the EP matcher on OddsMonkey various time throughout the day. If when doing this you see different horses jumping to the top of the EP matcher highlighted in green, this can be a good indicator that the race would be profitable to dutch.

[@Celtwoman1949]

This has really whetted my appetite and I'll be studying this a lot more

sometimes bookies offer up to 6 or even 7 places now has you have said you don't want to put the full field on with those bookmakers so how do you split the horses in to different bookie some who might only offering 5 places, do you just do this has normal but instead of putting 4 or 5 places in the place column you put either 6 or 7.

[@ProfitPineapple]

Hi John, The more places offered by various different bookmakers the better for dutching when matched betting. This spreadsheet isn’t great for selecting certain horses having more places paid out on them than other horses depending on the bookmakers in question. I plan to make a more in-depth video on all aspects of dutching in the near future which will dive into this question along with other similar ones I have been asked

[@beaverundercover3479]

@@ProfitPineapple No problems. You should think about doing more with your skills/information. Other guys on Facbook etc not as good as you.

[@justicedibiagwu7896]

So what time before do you normally place the bets? Because from experience there might be non runners. And when there are non runners very close to the race how does this affect the overall bet?

[@ProfitPineapple]

Hi there, If there are non-runners there will be a rule 4 deduction with the bookmaker and a very similar reduction on the exchange. These two deductions between the bookie and the exchange will be very close to the same value. The number of horses running in the race for the bookies to continue to pay out on all their EPs differs from bookie to bookie. OddsMonkey have a guide on their website which displays these numbers

[@kinkladze78]

Nice vid Liam 😎 how many times have you done this at previous Cheltenham festivals? 🧐

[@ProfitPineapple]

Thanks! I've not used this strategy super often, for me personally I opt to target the EP and arb the place market in most cases. But this can and does work in certain races, so if you have the time and the accounts its well worth doing and will provide you with a good ROI

Cheers Joseph, much appreciated mate 👍 I’m not 100% sure on this one, I suspect there will be a way of doing this though. This isn’t my preferred style of extra places so the races I have used this on each of the bookies paid out on the same amount of EP’s

[@ikechukwu6780]

Hi Liam, what if a race has more or less horses than there are columns in the spreadsheet? How do we update it accordingly?

[@ProfitPineapple]

Hi there, good question. There is a further spreadsheet that you can download on OddsMonkey which will allow you to cover races with huge fields with up to 40 runners!

[@ikechukwu6780]

Hey Liam. Thank you soo much for this video I didn’t even know this sort of thing existed. Really appreciate this. Does this mean you can make profit this way one very horse race?

Not a problem, thanks for watching! Yep, there are lots of big money methods like this that are very much possible in Matched Betting which I will be revealing here on my youtube channel!

[@dannybragg4679]

Do u know if placing these big E/W stakes is a gubbing risk compared to smaller stakes like 10 E/Ws?

[@ProfitPineapple]

Hi Danny, I would say that the chance of a gubbing will increase slightly should you decide to use larger e/w back stakes. I get around this by sprinkling in some mug bets each week using stakes in relation to the stakes I use for offers etc.

[@patriciaknowles2726]

Shouldn't the each way pink column on the dutching spreadsheets be left blank to fill in your own stakes? All the videos i have seen they all seem to come pre filled with various different stakes. Sorry but i'm a bit confused by it. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[@mickgolden5987]

How likely is it to find a race would there be one every Saturday say?

[@eachwaydutchinghorseraces5363]

You need a bot that automatically parses each race on the day, several times and hour and then alerts out those that are +EV. There are viable races most days (not just big festivals - though they are the best both for number of races to EW Dutch and to hide what you are doing from the bookies by the sheer volume of bets). I have written such a bot and it's been finding +EV races for over 5 years!

do you ever make use of the betfair exchange to back horses on their each way market?

[@ProfitPineapple]

Hi Michael, You can do this but the problem is that you will be very limited by the amount of liquidity available as it isn’t a very popular market on the exchange

[@richardwiseman1898]

Hi Liam. How would it work if there is a non runner after you've placed the bets?

[@ProfitPineapple]

Hi Richard, If to many horses are pulled from the race the bookmakers can lower their place terms which would likely result in a qualifying loss and no profit. As a rule of thumb 7 horses are needed for 3 places, 12 horses for 4 places and 16 for 5 places.

[@pantelisioannou5673]

If you download the programs there is no internal files that trigger off the bookmakers warnings?

[@ProfitPineapple]

Hi there, No the spreadsheet is completely safe to download from OddsMonkey :)

[@TheOutdoorsEnthusiasts]

Hi Liam, what would happen if a horse didn't start the race after you placed your bets? could that effect your profit? Thanks

[@ProfitPineapple]

Hi Max, If you get a non runner in your race the bookmaker will apply a rule 4 deduction along with the exchange applying a similar reduction. Most of the time these two reductions will even out (or more or less) leaving you with no win or loss on that runner. This shouldn't impact your overall potential profits too much and in some cases can help out slightly. OddsMonkey has a few guides on extra places which are very much worth reading over which will go into a little more detail on different factors similar to this. Cheers, Liam

[@CEJDOTAza88]

Hi Liam. Your videos are good, I wanted to highlight something. You say you need to use Extra Places but that isn't 100% true. There are other races that allow you to dutch them paying standard places. Makes it easier for those who aren't multi-accounting.

[@ProfitPineapple]

Thanks mark appreciate it.👍 That’s interesting I’ve never come across that myself. I didn’t think that would have been possible with the bookies overground’s being what they are, but that would 100% make things much easier that’s for sure!

[@BigGeeMan]

Youve to place four or five each way bets with 4/5 different bookies?? Bit confused at this...

[@ProfitPineapple]

With this, your looking to target an overbroke place market, some bookmakers may be offering better prices over others so using them bookies in them instances would be favourable for the dutch

[@arsenalmanic]

Do those extra place offers still remain in an event of non-runners close to the off? or are the places reduced to 3 places? (for example). Also If there short odds is a non-runner, then there we will be huge reduction rule 4

[@ProfitPineapple]

This is something you need to look out for, with larger fields this generally isn’t an issue unless a huge number of horses drop out. OddsMonkey have a guide on their site which will go through how non runners generally effect your profits taking into account rule 4’s and extra place removals.

[@salopian4037]

I don't see this working in the vast majority of cases. You say it will only generally work at bigger meetings. If so, what is the determining factor at those meetings? Surely it can only be the SPs and the number of runners, therefore should it not be possible to look for the optimum number of runners, together with the 'right' sort of odds, at any meeting? What would you say would be the best number of runners and range of odds to give a guaranteed profit?

[@ProfitPineapple]

Yes you are right, not every race is going to result in a guaranteed profit from dutching the bookie’s e/w places, there will generally be a few opportunities each year to lock in a guaranteed profit however its still possible to dutch the field with extra places and take positive expected value, I’m planning on making a video in the near future which goes into the best races possible for dutching which will dive into everything from the amount of runners to how many places the bookmaker is paying out on and how that relates to the amount of profit and EV on offer

[@alanhaynes9672]

Someone else possibly mentioned it, but you forgot the BOG. Sharjah was 12's not 11's

[@alandimery3379]

Hello, great video. I have tried this out with many different races, all with 4 or 5 place winners and I cannot get any of them to show a profit. Even the maximum profit is sometimes in the negative. I am wondering what I am doing wrong. I cannot find the odds as you have and so I have added '1' to these for the stake. (So 5/2 = 3.5) What percentage of the big races will usually shoe a profit please?

[@ProfitPineapple]

Hi Alan, This is only profitable on really big races such as what you would find at big horse racing festivals. Not ideal, but it’s worth the wait as the profits are huge! The best way to tell if there’s a chance a race may be profitable to Dutch is to continue refreshing the extra place matcher throughout the day of the race. If each time you refresh your seeing lots of different horses, all with really high matches continually popping up in green at the top of the EP matcher, this is generally an indicator I look for that tells me that I will be able to cover the whole field for a profit! Cheers, Liam

[@alandimery3379]

@@ProfitPineapple Oh I see, thanks. I sort of understand what the extra place matcher is. I do not own Odds Monkey (yet). I need to be convinced it would be worth it first. I recreated the spreadsheet from what you showed me on the video. I am very good with spreadsheets.

[@craigdocherty5990]

on a lot of the big races, say Cheltenham you'll have different bookmakers offering different places, you might have some offering 5, 6 or even 7 places. On your example, all of the bookmakers paid out on 4 places - can the spreadsheet deal with this situation?

[@ProfitPineapple]

There is a much more sophisticated sheet available for download on OddsMonkey for these kind of situations mate, I would check that out

[@PST101]

Thanks mate. This is brilliant. I knew about dutching but have never seen it mentioned in relation to this, I wonder why? A couple of things. Are bookmakers not going to know what you're up to when you're placing each way bets of odd amounts? I'm assuming they'd know which of their races are dutchable? How often are you doing this?

[@ProfitPineapple]

Cheers Eddie, appreciate it pal👍 Yes that would look a little bit suspect, because of this OddsMonkey have set up the spreadsheet to round the total stakes to the nearest £5 which keeps everything looking as natural as possible. This means that the actual place return may differ very slightly from the approx return if placed column. Cheers, Liam

[@Blackmane_K]

@@ProfitPineapple how long before each race do you suggest placing these mate? I know you tend to get better odds closer to the race but i'd be nervous about the odds jumping around all over the place in between placing each bet.

[@ProfitPineapple]

@@Blackmane_K at larger meetings and festivals you should be fine getting on these hours beforehand mate as the interest is so high bookies will dish out some enticing odds.
