We have a winner!!! Jez Gee takes the €/£100 free bet for correctly guessing Looking Out For Number One

Rightio then, this is the big one. I think this particular Katchphrase is especially tough so I’m offering a €/£100 free bet to whoever gets it right. All squares will be revealed by 2.30pm-ish and if people are struggling then, I’ll start giving clues to make sure we get a winner well before the Gold Cup…you can use the free bet on whatever you want of course but I figured this is what the masses would prefer. Good luck and good guessing.

Some simple rules to give everyone a chance.
1. No matter which saying you think the image actually portrays, it’s our answer you have to match.
2. Only one guess per person per square revealed, until the entire image is revealed and then it’s a free-for-all.
3. Complaining that the image is too vague, unrelated, badly made, artistically without merit, will be ignored.
4. You need to have a Paddy Power account to get the free bet.
5. The interpretation, bending, amending and ignoring of all rules is entirely at my discretion and if you don’t like it, don’t play.

A quick note: Please make sure to use the same email address you have registered with your Paddy Power account when you’re giving your answer here.

We have a winner: Rik takes down the free bet with Spanning The Ages. Congratulations.

Welcome one and all. It’s the final day of Cheltenham and there’s no getting away from the fact that it’s been a bit of a shocker for the punter, so far. Things might turn around today but whatever happens I’ll be attempting to bring a little entertainment and some much needed free bets to your day.

There’s a €/£50 free bet on offer for Game 1, all you have to do is say what you see and hope your answer matches up with ours. On top of this there’s another €/£50 free bet for my favourite answer/comment of the day. Plus, if enough people are playing, I may run a particular tough Katchphrase game for a €/£100 free bet. Good luck with this one.

Winner!!! Darren takes it for correctly guessing Against The Odds. Congratulations.
The only stand-outs in running for the funny bonus, and there were very few, have all received free bets already so I’m making an executive decision and carrying it over to tomorrow, where the best non-winning answer will get a €/£50 free bet and a bag of goodies (whatever I can steal off marketing….so it may be less goodies and more just stuff). There will be a winner tomorrow regardless.

Okay then, here’s the last one of the day. I’m saving the especially difficult one for tomorrow so make sure you get a good night’s sleep. Say what you see and as always there’s €/£50 free bet for whoever gets the right answer. The bonus €/£25 for making me laugh is still there to be won. Good luck.

Winner!!! Congratulations Pat Farrell who takes Game 2 and the €/£50 free bet by correctly guessing Lame Duck. For anyone who wants to complain that this was too tough or obscure, see rule 3 below, then go annoy someone who cares.

There’s another €/£50 free bet to be won in Game 2. This one’s a bit weird but then that’s half the fun. Just say what you see and remember there’s a €/£25 bonus free bet for my favourite answer of the day.

We have a winner!!: Mark takes his second free bet in three days, showing everyone else how this game is played. Either that or he’s cheating somehow. I’ll look in to it. The winning answer is Not Playing With A Full Deck.

Welcome to another day of picture guessing fun. It’s been pretty tough going for punters so far this Cheltenham so let’s see what we can do to hand out a few free bets today. As usual there’s a €/£50 free bet on offer per game as well as a €/£25 free bet for the funniest/cleverest guess of the day. A new square will be revealed every 15 minutes or so, just say what you see and that free bet could be yours. It’s not rocket science.

Good luck everyone.

We got through those first three games alittle quicker than expected so here’s a bonus quickfire game with a €/£25 free bet on offer. Just say what you see…and no begging allowed. It’s very unbecoming. Game on!!

Winner: Nick takes down the €/£50 free bet for getting Pencil Pusher.

Today’s bonus €/£25 free bet goes to Brian Bennett who not only did a whole lot of moaning, also made me chuckle with his Plank Stapleton guess on Game 1. Nick’s No Ikea comment was good too but he took the bonus round and one free bet per day is your lot from me.

Enjoy guys, I hope you put them to good use.

You lot are getting better at these, we haven’t gotten down to the final square once today. Hopefully game 3 will prove a more serious test. Just say what you see and the first correct answer wins a €/£50 free bet. There’s also some fierce competition for the funniest and weirdest guesses of the day, which will earn some hilarious/disturbed soul a €/£25 free bet.

Game 1 ended a little too quickly so this one is a little trickier. Just say what you think you see and the first one to guess correctly gets a €/£50 free bet. There’s also a daily €/£25 free bet for the funniest incorrect answer and one for the worst answer of the day. Even losers can be winners!!

Welcome to day 2 and another series of Cheltenham Katchphrase games. You’re probably licking your wounds after what was an abysmal opening day for punters at Cheltenham, so to get today off to a better start there’s a €/£50 free bet on offer…and I’ve chosen one of the easier Katchphrases we have left. So best of luck to all…if there’s anyone around at this hour.

We have a winner!! Congratulations to Sean who has cracked today’s first Katchphrase ‘Shiver Me Timbers’. That was a little too easy so I’m going for a tricky one next. The comedy bonus bet is still up for grabs but a few of you have had me chuckling already so it won’t be an easy choice. Next game starts at 11.30am.
