You should be happy that this time you got the maximum win, but in the future you should bet more optimally.
Thanks for the explanation, @KTChampions!
From now on I'm betting with 2.00+ odds if I win a freebet again. Although I personally think that the "average" comes in play only when many thousands of bets are made, I don't see the reason for not betting in a more favourable way than I was doing it before. It simply cannot do any harm, right?
I think 20-30 bets will be enough to feel the difference in the distance, but you are right, the distance is an important parameter and if you win free bets not so often, then it is better to play more reliably.
If I'm making a "serious" bet, I prefer not to watch the game because I don't like to be nervous And I do not think that you should regret the missed opportunity - after all, when you made a bet, nothing was clear and you could easily lose the money you bet.
