I certainly wouldn't cash out for 800 pounds put it that way
You could have 1100 with William hill in a separate bet on both teams not to score at 10/11 and then you'll either win 1200 if both do score, or 1000 if only one or none score

If it finishes 0-0 you're screwed

But if I cant get hold of £1100 the sensible thing would be to cash in?

An alternative along with what cavey is saying is
500 at 21/10 west ham only to score returns 1050
200 at 11/2 stoke only to score returns 1100
120 at 9/1 no goalscorer returns 1080
Then if both score you'll lose on all the above but win 2300 own the Acca, total profit is 2300 - 500 - 200 - 120 = 1480
But this will win you less when you take off the other two losing bets. West ham only score you'll win 730, stoke only you'll win 480, no goalscorer you'll win 350,
Better to just do what I said in my previous post and have 1100 on both teams to score - NO at 10/11 with William hill

You're gambling, there's no scientific answer to your question.
Couple ways to look at. First, the money was never yours in the first place so just gamble. Second, would you stick over 800 quid at roughly 4/1 that both Stoke and West Ham will score tomorrow?

Don't use them, you will have to consider how much you would pay to use that service and it probably won't be worth it, just cash out for 800 or watch the game and hope both score for 2300

Wouldn't be 4/1, that would return 4000, both teams to score is best priced 10/11, best advice would be just gamble and hope (I'm a betting man but I can't see both teams scoring tomorrow) or cash out for 800. But be prepared that if you cash out and they oth do score you'll annoy yourself that you didn't just leave it. Make the decision now and be happy with it regardless of the result

I'd 'half' cover it.
I'd fancy West Ham to score at home, therefore I'd cover the bet by staking £300.00 on Stoke to score 0 goals at 29/20 which would return you £735.00 off of £301.00 total staked
The risk is West Ham dont score obviously.
I'd either do that or go for it and risk it!

Was meant to say 3/1 which would also be wrong 
Would you stick on 800 quid at 2/1 that both teams would score.

Hmmm, I can get hold of £650, I might just bet £650 that they both won't score, which would return £1240 leaving a profit of £600, and hope that west ham and stoke do score which would leave a profit of £1650

What you think to that? Then it'll still be £600 better than nothing?

No that's what I can get with my overdraft. Probably the best way? Either way then i'll be £600 better off with Christmas around the corner but if they both score it'll be £1600 profit

If you can lay it you should be able to come out up either way.
Just make sure you've got all outcomes covered.

I'm going to place £650 on both teams not to score, which will leave me with £600 profit.
If both team's score, it leaves me with £1600 profit.
Wish me luck

If it is your overdraft then I will go with that, it will still give you a good return but also you'll still have plenty interest in the match, you're effectively risking 200 to win an extra 1000 which is well worth it, just make sure you put the 650 on the right thing, which sounds obvious but it's easily done on these markets

660 would return you 600 but 650 is close enough
