SV-60 Review Jim Hunt and marketed by Streetwise Publications

January 21, 2015 General Reviews, Trading 2 comments

Created by Jim Hunt and marketed by Streetwise Publications, SV-60 is advertised as a top secret trading formula that is claimed to have a 100% win rate on trades.

What is the product?

SV-60 is a product that shows you how to use creator Jim Hunt’s special formula to become a successful market trader. Spread over 10 DVD’s Jim Hunt uses SV-60 to show you how he successfully made 21 winning trades in 45 days. The actual details surrounding SV-60 are scarce to say the least and most of the copy is instead dedicated to a number of claims that are dubious at best. What is stated about SV-60 is that it has been back tested over 3 years (where it allegedly maintained a 100% win rate with no cherry picking data). Jim Hunt also says that SV-60 is able to work in any market conditions, even going as far as to ask how it can perform when they are stable as opposed to the tumultuous conditions that he has back tested it in and currently exist. Interestingly, the formula for SV-60 is actually in the title which should present itself as (S x V) – 60, something that I don’t personally see as being applicable to trading. The final thing that Jim Hunt has to say on SV-60 is that everything is based off information relayed to him through “The Formula Project” in which users sent him data and information on their trading and what did and didn’t work.

January 20, 2015 General Reviews, Marketing No comments

What is the product?

Video Auto Click is a web application that allows users to create their own fully customised videos for Facebook. These videos can be set up to display a personalised graphic so that all of the videos that you upload follow your branding. You can also add link and video descriptions and arguably most importantly, provide a link that Video Auto Click will direct users to once they have finished watching your video. Video Auto Click uses YouTube videos and is designed to integrate with Facebook allowing you to post your videos to not just your own Facebook wall, but those of friends and most interestingly from a marketing standpoint, fan pages. Brett Rutecky says that his allows you to directly target your desired niche “where the traffic is”. The fundamental idea behind Video Auto Click is that you post reviews of products for a product in a given niche, people watch it and then are redirected to the website (via your affiliate link) where they see the full sales page. In this way you can make an income as an affiliate marketer without having the overheads of running a website etc. Video Auto Click also comes with an option to include retargeting code to ensure that people who have watched your videos before will see you newer uploads.

PH Tennis Betting Club Review Phil Hale

January 20, 2015 Betfair, Gambling / Tipsters No comments

Created by Paul Hale and provided under the Bet Kudos umbrella, PH Tennis Betting Club is a tipster service that focuses on betting on Tennis.

What is the product?

PH Tennis Betting Club has actually been operational for a few years now however Paul Hale has kept it as a strictly summer affair. For 2015 however it is being launched as a season long service. Selections are sporadic due to the nature of Tennis (there simply aren’t that many games played outside of major tournaments). In terms of the selection process, Paul Hale doesn’t really offer any insight however as he points out, in tennis there are only two possible outcomes so it’s hardly the end of the world. PH Tennis Betting Club does however say that Paul Hale worked closely with online bookies for 5 years so it is rather heavily implied that he has some knowledge from this. In terms of the bets that you will be playing, they are rather varied ranging from picking a winner to doubles, triples and there is even the potential for accumulators in the future. PH Tennis Betting Club uses a staking system in which Paul Hale will advise you how much to bet which can be anywhere from 2-5 points per bet. Unfortunately there are no details of a strike rate however looking at the results for the last two summers it should be around the 50% mark although how this will carry over for a full season remains to be seen.

Fusebets Betting Syndicate Review

January 19, 2015 Gambling / Tipsters, General News No comments

Fusebets Betting Syndicate is a brand new betting syndicate that also offers subscribers horse racing tips. Payments from syndicate activity is paid out at the end of each month.

What is the product?

As is pretty obvious from the name, Fusebets Betting Syndicate is a betting syndicate that is pretty new (being just a little over a month old). Whilst the syndicate is the meat and veg of this, it is also worth noting that Fusebets Betting Syndicate also provides its subscibers with tips for horse racing which is a nice bonus (although technically it is the horse racing tips that you are paying for). There isn’t anything about the horse racing tipster service that seems to be that different to current examples on the market so as such I shan’t dwell on it, especially since the majority of readers will be more interested in the syndicate. Fusebets Betting Syndicate covers a huge number of sports with its service ranging from things like horse racing and football (which you would likely expect) to several American sports with some of their tipsters actually operating out of the United States. The team behind Fusebets Betting Syndicate make their selections based on the combined knowledge which given the fact that it is made up of betting enthusiasts, Professional Tipsters and statisticians suggests that this is definitely significant. Buying into Fusebets Betting Syndicate involves purchasing “subs” which are available in various multiples (each of which will increase how much you ultimately take home) with this amount going into a betting pot that Fusebets Betting Syndicate use for betting. Payments are then issued at the end of the week based around how many subs you have purchased. All of this is pretty standard for a syndicate service and doesn’t really warrant too much attention however what possibly does is the strike rate for December which comes in at a respectable 29.54%. When broken down further, Fusebets definitely seems to win more than it loses however when there are losses they can look bad. Fusebets Betting Syndicate has ultimately shown profitable for December however and there is nothing at the moment to show that this cannot be consistently achieved. As a slight aside it is also worth noting that Fusebets Betting Syndicate intend to hold social events for members to get together and share experiences and tips in the future.

Champion Bets Review Steve Hudson

January 19, 2015 Gambling / Tipsters, General News No comments

Created by Steve Hudson, Champion Bets is an independent sports betting service that focuses on football and the Asian Handicap betting market.

What is the product?

Champion Bets is definitely a niche tipster service focusing on a single market in a single sport. In this case it is Asian Handicaps and football, a combination that I have seen before and has been known to produce decent results. If you aren’t familiar with Asian Handicap bets (which I don’t really believe that most average punters will be), they essentially alter odds by handicapping bigger clubs so that they have to win by a larger goal margin. Whilst selection aren’t daily (namely down to the scheduling of football), there are typically a fair amount of tips released. These are predominantly in Europe with the majority being English and Dutch football with International games also covered. Steve Hudson advises staking of 1-5 points although most are 3 points and above. Average odds come in at 2.03 points which isn’t bad when you consider that the majority of selections that Champion Bets advises are in favour of bigger clubs. This method has produced an alleged strike rate of 65% which is respectable. Unfortunately the actual selection method that Steve Hudson uses for Champion Bets isn’t ever discussed however looking at the tips that have been sent out there is a pattern. Champion Bets appears to be focused on games in which there is a clear favourite, typically backing the bigger team to win by a smaller margin. This allows you to tip the odds more favourably to you as a punter. Read more

The Winning Tipsters Review

January 19, 2015 Gambling / Tipsters, General Reviews No comments

Created by Gavin and Ben, The Winning Tipsters is an independent horse racing tipster service. Selections are sent out to users via email.

What is the product?

The Winning Tipsters is a tipster service that has been established since September 2013 during which time the creators say that it has achieved considerable success. Gavin and Ben say that The Winning Tipsters has been designed in such a fashion that it limits a users liability (with the pair rarely exceeding 12 points risked in a single days betting) whilst still allowing them to maximise profits for The Winning Tipsters subscribers. This is achieved by looking to extract the best value bets (the average odds for The Winning Tipsters are claimed to be 4/1) with Gavin and Ben claiming to have had 40/1 wins and even 100/1 doubles coming in although The Winning Tipsters isn’t entirely comprised of these bets with each way bets getting a look in as well. Selections for The Winning Tipsters are claimed to come from hours of research although this could realistically translate to almost anything. No doubt Gavin and Ben also draw heavily on their claimed 20 years of betting experience whilst also getting tips from some of the yards allegedly. This appears to be achieved through the pair allegedly owning a race horse, Mister Hendre that is in training with one Susan Corbett. Read more

Horse Racing Renegade Review Horse Racing Rates

January 17, 2015 Betfair, Gambling / Tipsters No comments

Created by a programmer known only as Kevin on his website, Horse Racing Rates, Horse Racing Renegade is a piece of software that identifies selections for races on a daily basis.

What is the product?

Horse Racing Renegade is a downloadable application (note that it is only Windows compatible) that follows a unique set of rules to try and identify winning horses for the days races. Horse Racing Renegade stats by finding races that have 10 or less runners in which all the horses have at least 3 races worth of data behind them. After this the process is kept secret by Kevin however based on the fact that it draws on previous races my guess would be a form based rating system. When you search Horse Racing Renegade shows all the races, times and horses to back in a list format. Whatever formula Kevin actually employs for Horse Racing Renegade, it produces massively varied results with horses having odds of Betfair of anything from 2.0 to 67. This does unfortunately produce a somewhat disappointing strike rate with the proofing for Horse Racing Renegade allowing me to calculate 18.8% to date. The bets that you place seem to be mostly each way or place bets with a level staking system. It is worth noting at this point that as proofing only goes back to December it remains to be seen whether Horse Racing Renegade will do better in the new year. Read more

Both Teams to Score and Win Selection Service

January 13, 2015 Gambling / Tipsters, General Reviews No comments

Both Teams to Score and Win Selection Service is the new sports betting football based tipster service offered by the team behind The Racing Professionals.

What is the product?

Both Teams to Score and Win Selection Service is a tipster service that uses a very specific betting type in order to find selections. This is betting on games where both teams will score and then finding a winner. The racing Professionals get around the latter half by generally backing both teams to win (so long as the odds are favourable) which does typically mean betting twice per game. Given the niche nature of the bets placed and the way football is a sport, it seems reasonable to expect that Both Teams to Score and Win Selection Service is primarily statistics and form based. Selections are almost daily and are made available to a special Facebook page although for a premium you can get selections emailed directly to you. The Racing Professionals say that Both Teams to Score and Win Selection Service is focussed on the ever popular concept of value bets which means that the service does seem to draw on some rather obscure matches. Whilst the majority appear to be European, Both Teams to Score and Win Selection Service does seem to have games from across the world. Whilst there is no precise strike rate published, Both Teams to Score and Win Selection Service is advertised as attaining 20-30% which feels rather too vague for my liking. Read more

National Hunt Specialist Review Sports World Publishing

January 9, 2015 Betfair, Gambling / Tipsters No comments

Offered by the Sports World Publishing tipster group, National Hunt Specialist is a relatively new horse racing tipster service that draws heavily on statistics.

What is the product?

National Hunt Specialist is a relatively straight forward tipster service in so much as it ticks all the usual boxes. It is an email based service with bets typically sent out on the day before 10am. Selections are for national hunt races (as the name National Hunt Specialist implies) with week days typically yielding up to 3 selections and Saturdays potentially providing as many as 5. All the selections that Sports World Publishing provide through National Hunt Specialist are based purely round analysis of statistics, however Sports World Publishing claim that the statistics that National Hunt Specialist uses are somehow the best set of statistics available. Given the nature of this claim I was disappointed to find out that this is never explored any further outside of a comment about the “fact” that it has taken National Hunt Specialist years to gain access to this information. Staking for National Hunt Specialist is a level staking system of 2 points which are placed on either 2 point win bets or 1 point win, 1 point each way (typically the latter). Occasionally there may be a bet where you are staking only on each way however I believe there is just one example of this to date. Unfortunately Sports World Publishing have not released a strike rate for National Hunt Specialist however a look at the data does show that the longest losing streak for the service is recorded at 9 races.

Formula 1 Lotto System Review Glen Hooke

January 2, 2015 General Reviews No comments

Created by one “Dr. Robert” and marketed by Glen Hooke, Formula 1 Lotto System is a piece of software for helping to choose successful lottery numbers.

What is the product?

According to the creator of the software, Glen Hooke, Formula 1 Lotto System is a system for choosing winning lottery numbers based on an algorithm created by Dr. Robert, a now retired MIT teacher. The method was allegedly worked on over 27 years with it now having a success rate of 8.7 wins in 10 according to the promotional material. Formula 1 Lotto System is an online application with a simple drop down interface that allows you to pick which lottery you are playing (Formula 1 Lotto System is allegedly compatible with all lotteries worldwide) after which you are given a range of numbers to choose from. It appears that depending on what your first choice of number is, Formula 1 Lotto System then provides a spread of numbers to cover the whole board so to speak. As well as access to the Formula 1 Lotto System software you also receive a number of bonuses that relate to the lottery field. Read more
