With the wide range of different bookmaker promotions available throughout the market these days, it can be quite confusing to find out which offers are worth taking part in. One of the most fascinating promotional offers available is the Sky AccaFreeze, which is available at Sky Bet and can only be used during accumulator bets. Here at <\/span>OddsMonkey<\/span><\/a>, we are going to look through the basics of a Sky AccaFreeze, how these betting offers work and how savvy bettors can use them to make the most of their matched betting journey!<\/span><\/p>\n

What Is The Sky AccaFreeze?\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

The Sky AccaFreeze is a sky exclusive which can only be used for football betting, meaning it cannot be used for other popular betting sports like horse racing. The Sky AccaFreeze allows users to \u2018freeze\u2019 one of the results of the games in an accumulator bet, meaning if one of the teams is leading at any point of the game, you can choose to freeze that result, and that result will stay as it is for the rest of the bet as if the match had finished at that point.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

For these bets to be made, bettors need to build an accumulator with 5 or more legs, and you will get the option to freeze one of the scores to win the leg early! If you bet on a draw in an AccaFreeze, you can only freeze win selections throughout the promotion and not on draws. This feature provides an added layer of control, letting you lock in outcomes as they happen.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

How Does The Sky AccaFreeze Work?\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

With this feature, you can freeze the scoreline on select games in your 5-fold accumulator, giving bettors more control when it comes to how they place their bets. The feature can be used up to five times per week, and only winning team selections are eligible. Once a leg is frozen, the rest of your acca depends on the remaining unfrozen selections!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If you are familiar with <\/span>matched betting<\/span><\/a>, you will likely understand the concept of placing lay bets on accumulators to minimise risk; here, we will look at how bettors can use the Sky AccaFreeze to cut out potential losses.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sky AccaFreeze With Matched Betting\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

In typical OddsMonkey fashion, we look through all the ways that you can use offers and promotions from different bookmakers. First of all, players must place a 5-fold accumulator, and in this particular strategy, we would recommend picking four favourites and one underdog with high odds. Then, at a betting exchange, rather than laying the underdog to win, you will lay them to score first, as this aligns with what you are effectively betting on with Sky Bet when using the freeze.<\/span><\/p>\n

If the underdog scores first, you use Sky Bet\u2019s AccaFreeze to lock in a 1-0 scoreline, and this secures the underdog\u2019s \u201cwin\u201d on Sky Bet while you lose the lay bet on the exchange.\u00a0 If the favourite scores first, you lose on Sky Bet but win on the exchange. If done properly with the correct mathematics, bettors can cut out the potential of any losses by combining the freeze feature with a carefully planned lay strategy. If you are not sure how to place lay bets, or you are not sure you are using the correct maths, make sure to use our <\/span>matched betting calculator<\/span><\/a>.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This is one of the most fascinating matched betting opportunities; however, if you do not lay the different options available, there is the possibility that your matched bet can fail, so make sure you place your bets responsibly and follow all the advice that is on offer throughout the OddsMonkey site.<\/span><\/p>\n

Another way to take advantage of the AccaFreeze promotion is to cash out if you have frozen a leg. This effectively turns your bet into one of the <\/span>enhanced odds offers<\/span><\/a>, as the odds are higher for an accumulator bet compared to a single bet. You will still be able to cash out your bets if you\u2019ve frozen a leg; the frozen leg will add value to your cash out as per winning settled legs.<\/span><\/p>\n
