I used to use Ladbrokes. Very easy to use.
I wouldn't bother though tbh - never once had one accumulator come in.

Ladbrokes is one of the easiest.
Select the games you want to bet on (so find the fixture and select home win, draw or away win) and add it to the betting card which will be on the right. You'll then have an option for the various bets you can put on, one will be an accumulator - put £10.00 on it and Bob's your uncle.

Mate works in a bookies and smiles when he sees people coming for an accumulator - they make a fortune off people placing them.
If you have to, betfair have the best odds usually, but you'd probably be better off (financially) placing singles.

Accumulators are always more fun though!
Stick to a low number of games, and dont go stupid on what you lay down and is worth the punt IMO.

Bit of fun yes, but be under no illusion that in the long run, you'll probably loose.

If you bet stupid then yeah.
I put £10 on them each week in my labrokes account, and Im up so far this season, but it does rely on hitting a good result after being down for a while.

I wouldn't do more than 5 teams really,
I do them quite often, but mainly trebles and pick matches where teams arent like 1/5 etc
the best website to use is www.oddschecker.com
Pick the games you want, click compare odds, and then it will show you all the bookies and the best prices at the bottom
Remember, betfair charge commision and the multiples market prices arent usually as good, quite often bookmakers pay better odds in acca's

The bet i usually do is 20 x £1 trebles
Picking 6 teams, try to pick them between 5/6 and 5/4 if you can find 6 you fancy like that, and then you only need 4 to come in to get your money back + a few quid, 5 is about £100, all 6 in can get to around £200

i prefer to use betfair as theres generally one team a week i dont think will win so i 'lay' them on betfair that way you get the draw on your side too

I use betfair. Don't tend to do accas, there's usually one that doesn't come in.
I bet on the total goals market.

bwin is pretty good. they now have a points system for each £1` u bet. Once you have built up a fair few, theres great things u can exchange for. You also get them for casino bets and poker, so if you play them all you can build points really quick.
