Coral Cash Out is the British betting brand's way of giving its customers control over their bets, allowing them to bank winnings before the bet has settled. There are two parts to this feature, more specifically Full Cash Out or Partial Cash Out, which means customers can either bank the full cash-out amount or just some of it.

Lottery betting is growing in popularity at a rapid rate, with many of the top UK betting sites now offering this option alongside other products like bingo, poker and scratch cards.

Many of the UK's top online betting sites have a free-to-play game that encourages customers to return to the site. Paddy Power's version, called Wonder Wheel, was launched at the start of 2021 and has since become a big hit among its customers. In many ways, it is similar to Coral's free-to-play game Rewards Grabber.

In the simplest of terms, over/under 1.5 is a betting market that concerns the number of goals scored in a game across 90 minutes plus stoppages, though not including potential extra time. Over 1.5 is thus a bet on there to be 2 or more goals in the game, while under 1.5 goals is a bet on there to be 1 or no goals in the game. This bet includes the goals scored by both teams in a game, and this must be taken into consideration.

As several of the best betting sites in the UK now offer live streaming, punters now have a lot of different options on this front. William Hill has placed a great emphasis on horse as well as greyhound racing, offering streaming of the events with its service William Hill TV. Not all of them are bet-to-watch, though, which makes the bookie stand out.

System bets might seem complex, but the name just refers to a type of wager where there is no need for every leg to be a winner in order for some form of return to be handed to the player. As such, system bets have become increasingly popular on UK betting sites.

Understanding how betting odds work can be a headache for anyone new to sports betting. After all, without a clear knowledge of how betting odds work, people can feel quite lost. The first thing to note is that odds are usually shown in one of three main formats:

A Trixie bet is a type of system betting method that consists of four bets on three different selections combined into one. The four bets comprised three doubles and one treble, and players must choose three sections (from other events) to place a Trixie bet.

A Lucky 31 bet is made up of five selections and, being a very popular bet on horse racing betting sites, this is usually five horses to win a race. It gets more complicated than that, though, as these five selections are then spread out across 31 individual parts of the bet:

A patent bet is a multiple bet consisting of 7 bets placed on 3 different selections, 3 singles, 3 doubles and a treble. This method, which is categorised as a system bet, is mostly used by punters on the big horse racing betting sites. However, it is available across all sports and offered by most prominent bookmakers, growing in popularity because punters only need one winner from three selections to see a return.

Betfred's Spanish Lotto game allows punters to bet on the outcome of the Spanish national lottery, rather than participating in the latter. In other words, punters do not have a chance at winning the lucrative jackpot of the actual lottery, but instead they rely on the fixed odds offered by Betfred to calculate potential winnings.

As the name suggests, win both halves bets involves predicting that a team will score more goals - in football, or points in rugby - in both the first half and the second half of the match. However, although this type of bet is available on all of the best football bookies, it has quite a low profile. And many people might not even realise that it is also commonly used in rugby betting.

Lotteries are becoming a lot more popular on UK betting sites, with Betfred among the bookmakers trying to get a piece of the action through its Nifty Fifty game. Indeed, punters will often find lotteries from all over the world on most betting sites, which is certainly a receipt of the demand.

49s is a popular lotto game at Betfred which features - as you could guess - 49 balls during the draw. The latter is held twice a day, once at lunchtime and once in the evening, giving players an increased chance of winning on a daily basis.

Ante-post betting simply refers to placing wagers on events that will happen in the future. For example, while a lot of horse racing fans like to place wagers on the day of their chosen meeting, others prefer to take a more advanced view by checking out ante-post markets.

SP stands for 'Starting Price' but it is usually shown as just SP on most online betting sites. The starting price refers to the odds that are being offered at the time a horse race gets started.

A bet builder allows punters to combine several markets from one game to create one bet. For example, in a Premier League game between Arsenal and Liverpool, you could decide to place a bet builder bet with the following selections: Arsenal to win, a certain player to score, a certain Liverpool player to be booked and over 7.5 corners.

The William Hill Plus Card is a fantastic solution which allows instant access to your winnings. Previously known as William Hill's Priority Access Card, it was launched back in 2015 and aimed to cut down the delay of withdrawals.

Betfred Goals Galore is one of the betting brand's football promotions, allowing punters to choose the games they think will deliver many goals. There are a few different versions of the promotion, but the standard one involves predicting at least three games in which both teams will score.

Simply put, a void bet is one that is cancelled, which could be for various reasons. For example, if a Premier League game does not take place due to poor weather, the bets placed by punters on that game will be voided by the bookmaker. When a bet is declared void, the punter will get the stake returned.

The Scratch of the Day promotion is no longer available at William Hill, as the betting brand decided to discontinue it. This has left many loyal customers disappointed, with it being rather popular, but at least there are still some promotions such as the William Hill Bet Boost.

Lots of the top UK bookmakers offer free-to-play prediction games, so how does the Sky Sports Super Six option - which is operated by Sky Bet - compare to its rivals in a crowded market? With a £250,000 guaranteed jackpot up for grabs, Super 6 has one of the top prizes out there but naturally, that means it is also difficult to win.

The Tote Scoop 6 is a once-a-week horse racing betting pool that runs every Saturday, and occasionally on Friday evenings. Having run since 1999, it has become one of the UK's most famous horse racing bets.

Goal Difference - often referred to as GD for short - is a way to rank football teams based on their attacking and defensive performance. It is calculated by taking the difference between the number of goals a team has scored and conceded. It is not unusual for bottom-placed teams to have a negative goal difference, therefore.

Pick 7 is a free-to-enter competition in which you select seven horses from chosen racecards, using your Sky Bet or Sky Games account for the chance to win large cash prizes. It is thus similar to Sky Sports Super 6, which is a free-to-enter predictions game for football, though horse racing enthusiasts will find that the jackpot between the two greatly differs.

Most top online betting sites, one of which is Betfred, now have their own form of cash out. UK punters demand lots of flexibility over their wagers these days, with the cash-out function enabling them to lock in some guaranteed profit from a bet or cut their losses instead. You can read our general guide about the cash-out feature here.

Most of the top UK bookmakers now offer the ability to track in-shop bets online, making it possible for punters to use features such as cash out for in-these bets as well. Paddy Power's version of that is Track My Bet, also known as Paddy Power Onside, and it allows you to track and cash out a bet that you have placed in a Paddy Power shop.

Asian goal line bets are very popular on the best UK betting sites and involve football fans having to predict the number of goals scored in a game. As such, they have some similarities to other markets like over/under and total goals.

NRNB stands for non-runner no bet, which is just what racing fans might be able to guess. If a horse that has been backed does not end up running in the race, the bet is void. That means that the customer receives a refund on the wager, getting the cash they laid out back, which they can opt to use on another racing bet if they want.

Bet Builders have become more or less a must for UK punters in recent years, especially football fans, as the tool provides more freedom with the selections and can result in higher winnings. bet365 was one of the first to launch such a tool, simply called Bet Builder, and we judged it as the bet builder tool around.

Yes, punters who place a bet on Ladbrokes will indeed get winnings paid out based on first past the post (FPTP). This has more or less become standard among bookmakers, especially the top horse racing ones in the UK.

Betfair's Acca Edge replaced the Acca Insurance a few years back and is a fantastic promotion for sports punters. If one of your acca selections lets you down, Betfair will refund the full stake as cash. The only requirement is that the acca has at least three selections, after which the Acca Edge will kick in, and there is no maximum refund either.

Arbitrage betting is a way for punters to make guaranteed profits, or at least guarantee no losses, by pouncing on odds irregularities between bookmakers. More specifically, this is done by betting on all of the possible outcomes of a game, which requires rather high stakes and the profit can sometimes be minimal per bet.

Sports spread betting is a type of betting in which you bet on whether the result will be above (Buy) or below (Sell) the spread. A spread is a range the betting company predicts for the outcome of an event.

Asian handicap (AH) is a football betting market in which teams are handicapped according to their form. It first originated in Indonesia and has grown into one of the most popular betting markets on football betting sites.

Both teams to score (BTTS) is a betting market in which you can bet on 'Yes' or 'No' to both teams scoring in the match. If you bet on the 'Yes' market, you will need both teams to score at least one goal each in the match (90 minutes plus added time) while the 'No' market is neither team scoring, or just one of them.

Over/under 0.5 goals is a betting market in which punters bet on the total number of goals (both teams) scored in a match. The bet covers 90 minutes plus additional time, but not extra time. Over 0.5 goals is a bet on there to be 1 or more goals in a game, while under 0.5 goals is a bet on no goals in a match.

It goes without saying that American odds are how prices tend to be displayed in the US. However, many of the biggest and best UK betting sites will now also let users see American odds. These look very different to how the same price would look as decimal or fractional odds, though the potential profit is always the same.

In short, over/under 2.5 goals is a bet on the total number of goals scored by both teams in a game. The bet covers 90 minutes plus stoppage time but now extra time, which is worth noting.

Rewards for Racing - also referred to as Rewards4Racing - is a site that lets users collect points that can then later be traded in. In essence, it acts as a form of cashback bonus, with punters earning points from each racing bet they place. However, even though it is completely free to register, a lot of people are still unaware of Rewards for Racing.

Promotions have always been a massive part of the gambling industry, but more than ever, customers are looking for added value in free promos. Often this comes in daily games, which Coral already provides, but the bookmaker now also offers the ability to claim free bets as an existing customer.

Sadly, William Hill no longer offers insurance for those who place acca bets on the site. Instead, punters can make use of the Bet and Epic Boost, which has become a very popular promotion among William Hill customers.

On April 17th 2023, Ladbrokes changed the fundamentals of the Grid Card, no longer allowing punters to deposit and withdraw with the card. However, it is still possible to use the card - as well as sign up for one - for the rewards that Ladbrokes offers in-store. In essence, the card means that punters can make use of the online promotions in-store as well.

Like many of the best betting sites in the UK, Unibet offers a live-streaming service for its customers and it is considered to be one of the best in the business. Sports such as football, tennis and horse racing are available to watch and the bookmaker even offers some prominent games, such as La Liga action for football punters.

Bet365 is one of the biggest betting sites in the world, having made a name for itself with a plethora of markets, excellent betting features and comprehensive live-streaming options. In addition to the in-play excitement, with a nice live interface, bet365 customers can stream over 600.000 events every year on their computers, phones and tablets.

Just like many of the best betting sites in the UK, Betfred offers live streaming for selected events and only a funded account is needed to access this service. This is partly why the bookmaker has become so popular among UK punters, with sports such as horse and greyhound racing, NBA, snooker and tennis available to stream.

The gambling industry is a consistently rising market and the value within it is astounding. As a result, the industry must keep finding new ways to innovate itself to allow customers new and safe ways of managing their funds.

William Hill provides two free racing radio stations - one for horse racing, one for greyhounds - in the UK with commentary, racing news, interviews and more. All of the major horse races in the UK have live commentary through William Hill's Racing Radio service and this goes for some meetings in Ireland as well.

Put simply, this type of betting involves two or more punters combining their resources and placing bets together - thus forming a syndicate - and increasing potential winnings. For example, it is very common among co-workers or friends to play the National Lottery together, combining their stakes and sharing the potential winnings.

On April 17th 2023, Coral changed the fundamentals of the Grid Card, as punters can no longer handle funds with the card. Although deposits and withdrawals are no longer possible, Coral customers can still use the card - as well as sign up for one - to make use of the online promotions in the shops as well.

We believe gambling should only ever be for fun, and should never be seen as a way to make money. While there has been a trend of so-called experts - focusing heavily on statistics - in the betting world recently, this is certainly not for everyone and new as well as experienced bettors need to be careful.

In sports betting, the stake is simply the term that is used to describe the money that is put on a bet. The size of a stake is therefore the sum of cash being put down in the hope of a winning wager.

Handicaps are used to level out the playing field for a sporting event with one clear favourite. UK online betting sites offer handicap bets for a range of sports, but football and tennis are probably two of the most popular where the handicap can be used to achieve value bets.

Those who have placed bets on a betting site before might be familiar with the term Yankee Bet, but knowing how it actually works is a different story. A Yankee Bet consists of four selections, similarly to a Lucky 15 bet, but it differs from there on as these selections are spread out over 11 different parts:

In short, evs or evens is used to describe 'even money' when talking about betting odds and profit. When outlining terms and conditions for promotions, the top betting sites in the UK will often write evens instead of 1/1, which is what it is in fractional odds. Being familiar with the term is thus very important, especially for new punters scanning the market for the best promotions around.

Many of the top online betting sites in the UK now put the power in the hands of their customers by allowing them to request a bet, or build one, with SkyBet among these sites. In the last few years, in fact, the bet-builder feature has skyrocketed in popularity and it is no surprise that most of the betting sites constantly are developing the feature.

Like many of the top UK bookmakers in the industry, Paddy Power offers its customers an acca insurance. In short, Paddy Power will refund the stake as a free bet if one selection lets the acca down. This is fantastic for punters who want to maximise the odds of their accas, being able to add a risky selection to the mix, and it also applies to bet builders.

The Draw No Bet betting market is a bet which removes the outcome of a draw in three-way markets such as 1X2. Draw no bet allows punters to bet on either a home win, or an away win, and if the result is a draw, your stake will be refunded. However, you will lose your bet if the other team wins of course.

Darts betting has been growing in popularity at UK online betting sites in recent years, with the sport's public profile rocketing of late thanks to the rise of Fallon Sherrock and other top stars.

A Placepot, also known as a Tote Placepot, is one of the most popular pool bets on horse racing betting sites, as this type of bet offers punters a chance to win large payouts from relatively small stakes.

Each-way betting is a betting type in which you place two bets on the same horse: one bet for the horse to win, and one for the horse to place. This means you can win a return on your bet if your horse wins, but also if it just places in the race.

Best Odds Guaranteed is a standard promotion among the best horse racing bookmakers and plays a vital role. Essentially, it gives punters the chance to take the early price, but if the starting price (SP) is higher, you will get paid out at the higher odds. This is not only the case for horse racing, but also on some of the best greyhound racing sites.

Punters who like to place bets on snooker can try their luck with frame betting, which mainly is who will win the next frame but also includes some other markets. Snooker games are won on a best-of basis, divided into separate frames, and the number of frames could range from anywhere between 5 to 35. For example, in a best-of-35 game, a snooker player would need to clinch 18 frames to prevail.

The Cheltenham Festival is one of the most significant horse racing events of the calendar year. This guide will teach you how to watch Cheltenham for free on TV.

Those who have placed bets on horse racing before will be very familiar with the Lucky 15 bet, or will at least have heard the term before. This bet consists of four selections, usually which horses will win certain races, and these are spread out over 15 individual parts:

Sometimes referred to as a Super Yankee, a Canadian bet is made up of five selections, such as five football teams or five horses to win. It gets more complicated than that, though, as these five selections are then spread out across 26 individual parts of the bet:

While online betting is a fairly harmless hobby for a lot of us, some people struggle to keep a grip on their spending and want to learn how to block all gambling sites in the UK as a result.
