Half Time Saver
One of the most popular wagers in the football betting world is the straightforward accumulator, where the bettor selects several teams to win or draw their respective matches and needs all selected teams to do so for the bet itself to win. The appeal of accumulator bets is that, because the odds of all teams selected are multiplied together, the payoff for a winning accumulator can be many times greater than the stake. The downside is that if one or more teams fails to win or draw as predicted, the whole bet loses, but now a Half Time Saver deal at Paddy Power sportsbook could change all that...
Sports betting fans who have experience of betting on football matches for any length of time will know that it is perfectly possible for a bet to be in a winning position at half time and for the bet to then lose due to one or more of the teams lapsing at any point during the second half of the game. This is annoying whenever the bet happens to shift into a losing position, but it is particularly frustrating when just one team lets you down in the final minute or two of a match - one minute you are anticipating a payoff of tens, hundreds or thousands of pounds and the next you are sitting on a loss instead!
The Half Time Saver offer at Paddy Power can be a very big help to fans of accumulator bets because it promises to refund all losing accumulator bets that have four or more selections if the bet was winning at half time. There are obviously a few conditions attached, as follows:
- All bets must be placed online before the matches take place – no offline bets or bets placed in running qualify for this deal.
- Matches selected must be from approved leagues. A full list can be found at the Paddy Power sportsbook website but includes the English and Scottish leagues, league Cup matches, La Liga, Serie A, French Division 1 and the Champions League, to mention just a few. Clearly, there are plenty of matches for bettors to choose from.
- Bets must be placed on the Win-Draw-Win market only, so no accumulators relating to correct scores, first goal scorers or other secondary markets will qualify.
- The maximum refund per bet is £100.
All of this means that a bettor could place an accumulator on four or more teams for up to £100 and, if the bet is winning at half-time, be guaranteed a no-lose situation from thereon. Obviously, the ideal scenario would be for the bet to go on to win, in which case the payoff could be fantastic (for example, four winning 6/4 shots would return £390 for a £10 bet), but at least you wouldn’t be out of pocket if one or more of your teams lets you down in the second half.
If you fancy the chance of winning big money for a relatively small stake with a football accumulator then it makes sense to visit Paddy Power and take advantage of the Half Time Saver offer while you can!
