Wednesday's Big Winning Bets 29.09.22

Wednesday was a very quiet one in terms of football action as we await the return of domestic football after the international break, but there were other opportunities for spread bettors to get involved, including the T20 cricket matches between India and South Africa, and Pakistan and England.

In other sport, there were three matches in the Premiership Rugby Cup, as Harlequins, Gloucester and Exeter Chiefs came out on top in their respective matches, while in the football match of note, Chelsea defeated London rivals West Ham in the women’s super league.

As usual, we look at three big winning spread bets bringing savvy punters joy.

Please remember that unlike fixed odds betting, when spread betting losses can exceed deposits.

PAKISTAN V ENGLAND – LAUNCH! – (SETTLED AT 1134)

In Wednesday’s T20 action, Pakistan took a 3-2 lead of their seven-match series with England as despite a half-century from Moeen Ali, England fell six runs short in the run chase. After putting Pakistan into bat, England managed to dismiss the hosts for 145 in 19 overs with Mark Wood claiming 3-20.

However, Pakistan's bowlers also took frequent wickets and limited England to 139-7, with debutant Aamir Jamal bowling a particularly brilliant final over.

But where was the profit for spread betting punters? For those who decided to sell on the Launch! market, with an opening spread of 1625 – 1725, the makeup of 1134 meant a 491x return on opening stake!

CHELSEA (W) V WEST HAM (W)  – MULTI-BOOKINGS (SETTLED AT 0)

In the football action, Chelsea managed to recover from an early setback to register an impressive 3-1 win over West Ham to kick-start their Women's Super League campaign at Kingsmeadow on Wednesday night.

After suffering defeat at Liverpool on the opening weekend, Emma Hayes' side have recorded back-to-back home wins to get their season up and running, and confidence will surely now be high.

But where was the opportunity for profit in this match? The Multi-Bookings market certainly proved to be a shrewd option for selling punters, with a make-up of 0 meaning that there was an opportunity to secure a 75x return on an opening wager after an opening spread of 75 - 105!

HARLEQUINS V SARACENS – MATCH MULTI-POINTS (SETTLED AT 1240)

Harlequins beat Saracens 40-31 in an exciting match on Wednesday, which proved great news for punters. The home side had lost to London Irish in round one of the competition, and found themselves 10-0 behind here inside 16 minutes, after tries from Ollie Stonham and Ethan Lewis.

However, the visitors were left kicking themselves as they missed two conversions by Manu Vuinipola when Quins started to hit back. Their first try came through prop Nathan Jibulu on his debut and another followed five minutes later from a Connor Slevin interception.

Saracens did not give up and three tries in nine minutes from Lewis, Brandon Jackson and Ben Harris dragged them within nine points to set up a tense finale, although Quins did enough to hold on.

But where was the profit to be found? Punters who decided to buy on the Match Multi-points would have been happy with their profit – with a final make-up of 1240 from an opening spread of 870 – 957 meaning a 283x return on their opening wager!

Please note that these are examples of winning bets from the past week, and it is important to remember that spread betting carries a high level of risk to your capital and can result in losses larger than your initial stake/deposit.
